The writer has heard the story of that fight from the lips of Roberts, who is a good citizen, and is convinced beyond shadow of a doubt that Evans did rob that train, as he robbed many others,
 Whether or not the best thing we can do with criminal is to keep him in prison for life is a question on which many men differ, but if the laws against robbery and murder mean any thing 1t would be a crime against society to commute the term of Chris. Evans by one hour. He might not do any more harm, but his release in response to mawkish sentimentalism would do world of harm by proclaim ing that justice in California is~vacil- lating and that wholesale murder of officers of the law is trivial mis- demeanor.

 A city, building in what recently uninhabted desert cannot be expected to have wpaved streets free from dust and mud at all times elaborate systems of light
