ABE RUFF TO BE
GIVEN HIS

Having served more than four years
Of his sentence Of IA years, which
counts for half, reckoning credits, Abe
Ruef is about 10 be paroled from San
Quentin. Probably as a sop to public
opinion, he viii not be allowed to enter
San Francisco for 80 days and will not
be permitted to resume mis- political
activities until he is clear Of the juris-
diction Of the prison board. These con
ditions are hardly necessary, for it is
not probable that Ruef viii cut much
figure politically until he has been
either pardoned or his time has ex-
pired.
The officials of California are to be
congratulated on the manner in which
they have handled the Ruef case. Not
withstanding the terrific political pres
sure brought to bear on them for
Ruef's parole or pardon, ard the whin-
ings of the San Francisco Bulletin,
they have treated Ruef in exactly the
same manner as other convicts and
nave compelled him to wait until half
his time has been served before taking
action on his petition.
The fact that Ruef was made the
goat in rounding up the gang of
g~rafters that held San Francisco by
the throat for so many years does not
enter into the question. He was con
vlcted and public policy demanded that
be be punished. If he has lived up to
the requirements of the law during his
term, he should be paroled. The pub
lie is able to take care of itself and is
in no great danger from kuef or any
other one man. But it is probable that
he has had enough and that for the re-
mainder Of his days he win turn his
great abilities to some legitimate chan
mel.

part of the way the difficulty was in

supplied with a three-horsepower mo
tor and winch. which is ordinarily
used Tor drawing wires through the
conduits. This outfit was backed up
to a distance of two and cne-hais fest

While this conversation was taking
