Commitment.

The recent robbery at the Conrordia
hank is We, fresh in the minds If all. s"d
the prriirulxrs attending It have i~rn
widely published. When the arrest "f
Oauit. Carroll and R-n"ick was m~sle, the
public wss under the impr-.-i.'n that the
right l,er~.n- had h~en Caught. and when
the cashier s~ore to their identity, all. or
nearly al. were equally ~ positive.
They proved nn alibi, however. md were
released. Great v.s the disqualification
tI,ere~t, and the press was not sIOw to de.
nonnce the action Of the Justice. But
recent Developments seem To prove that the
Justice was right, and public cpinio"
wrong.
THE BAxK OFFICERS,
after the discharge of Odu,i. Csroll and
Kennick, determined 10 have the real PER
y<irsiors at Ill haz ,ri<, AMI Investigated
the matter thcr.ugi.Iy. II OGuIi. Carroll
aud Rennick re the rial cuiPi,s, they
should src~ise the punishment their crime
m-riied. II others had commIiied the
robbery, they should be hu"tesi sio~n aud
brought 10 Judgment. So the mstler was
