should be constructed. In all probability
he is as competent in this respect as the
editor of the Free Press.
Mr.. Nichols, the other commissioner,
has always been rated as man of sound
Judgment. He may not have had great
deal to do with tails in the past but II Is
a safe gamble to state that he probably
knows more about jails and Jail construc-
ton, knowledge which he has gathered
since he was appointed on tho Jail COM
mission, than both the editors of the
News and the Free Press together
Personally, the publisher of this paper
does not care a rap where the jail is built,
but he is opposed, utterly so, against In
creasing the expense Of constructing the
new Jail simply to- satisfy the within OF
some person or persons who have a rea
estate transaction they wish to push for
ward at n price.
If there is any graft in this jail PROPOSE
tion It would appear to the unprecedented
mind to be a realty graft rather than one
on the part OF the commission.
When the News editor squares himself
with the public regarding the compliment
he gave the present Jail in 1893 and The
roast he gave it I'm 1907 then the publisher
OF this paper his entire staff and the
devil will walk into the Almanac sanctum
and apologize for attempting a joke on
one of so serious a mind.

POSTAL ROBBERS
STILL At LARGE
POLICE HAVE NO CLEW TO THE
BURGLARS
Highland Park Bandits Believed to
Belong to the Same Gang as Those
Who Robbed Glendale and
Newport offices

No clew has been gained by the police
to the two men, thought to be MEM
bers of an organized gang of postoffice
robbers, who broke into and robbed the
sub-station of the postoffice at High
land Park, 112 West Avenue Fifty
seven, near Pasadena avenue, early yes
terday morning.
The men entered the building by
breaking open one of the windows with
a carpenters chisel. They drilled two
large holes in new safe located in one
corner of the office and blew the door off
with two charges of giant powder.
They then hurriedly rifled the safe of
$3.50 worth of stamps, $66 in money, a
$100 check and several cancelled checks
and money orders.
The sound of the explosion was heard
by Postmaster Robert Stewart, who
lives but a short distance away. Hastily
securing a revolver, he ran into the
street just in time to see two men jump
through a window and run down the
street.
Stewart at once called the police and
notified them Of the robbery, and De-
tectives Steele and McCann were put on
the case.
During the investigation after the rob-
penter's brace were found on top of the
safe.
According to the police the two men
who committed this robbery are not the
same ones who robbed the Glendale or
the Newport Beach postoffices.
The robbers who worked the first
named office ten days ago were evil
IDENTIFY amateurs. as they broke open the
safe with a sledge. The men who
robbed the Newport office January 4
were little familiar with the use Of ex
plosives. but the charge they used was
strong enough to wreck the safe and
damage the building seriously.
The men who robbed the postoffice
Friday night used a charge just strong
enough to open the big door to the safe
and not wreck it in any sense of the
word.
1t is believed, however, that the men
are all members Of the same gang, and
they are looked upon as dangerous
crooks.
