opposition to the proposed pistol law
The law can never lac too severe upon
those who carry tins wrctchcd imple-
mcnt, which has for SO long filled our
ials and pcnitcntiaricS and which has
made the galow~ groam under their
load of executed villniny. We won
der very greatly at Mr.. Gibbs and we
whisper softly into his rather capu-
ciou, ear, that if hc would "go up
head he must come down out OF that
idea The tendency in TcNa, is to ad-
vance, not to rcccdc, and the war
against the pistol is one of the most
valuable of the recent evidences that
We are advancing toward the higher
civilization of the age.
