Right down in Portland our own metropolis the automobile bandit is getting in his. work holding up the blinks as he comes to them. , ,Y. . Thus the gasoline engine, has brought its thorns as well as its roses, and soon we may expect to sec an air plane land at a safe distance, an automobile drive up to it with a bank's money and the bandits with a whirr of the big paddle sail off to some other land.

Therefore he took the other course, and now will very likely appear be fore the court before sentence, is passed to show that the !two rich yo.ung murderers weia mentally unsound and therefore should be detained in an asylum rather than Jput to death to pay for their crime. ) 1 -Of all, the, Jean) profession Clarence Darrow is one of the, shrewdesti- J TM' I NlW tV.TEWT MOB HAMOiBf At- JIT JIT BB -v Ion -this tsieser comms soy- 11 '' ry j jjjjpjf-' -yijp" ' me MOP HIDLB?
