Mr Forbes took office at a period when recial prejudice and feeling was most keen, and when the relations between the various branches of the government were so strained that they severly ham- pered the economicial administra- tion of affairs, but by his straight. forwardness, and keen and states- maaliko grasp and solution of home problems as they arose, Mr. For- bea has suceeded in bringing where CN is order out of chaos, and his departure is everywhere looked used is a clean upon as an almost irreparable lose to both the 'community of Manila
