: ; We cannot remember anything more • humiliating to the colony of Victoria than this latest developement of the terrorism i practiced; by Kelly sympathisers on Mr Monk, and the fact that oar police system '^ appears tobe helpless to extend protec- ■ tion to a loyal citizen against the ruffianism 'by which he is threatened. Here is a man who rendered service to the police '■': as a guide at a critical emergency, and l\has ever since'been made a marked man, by air the scoundrelism of the district. .He is constantly annoyed by threatening letters full of menaces against himself <. and his family. And that these are not ,;■' merely empty threats is Bhown by the late outrage in cutting through his dam to lot ,' the water escape, and by the more recent attempt on his life. This is a-state of •'' things worse than any we have ever had before in Australia. That 'a gang of ' criminals should commit desperate crimes -: ii; not uncommon. But that such men and such acts should find a sufficient number o£sympathisers, in different parts, .1. of; the, .community, and especially in the ,; district,made, notorious by these offences, to establish a system of terrorism i before, which" theresources of the law are completely paralysed, this is indeed a deplorable symptom of our social condition.-r----t Australasian.
