illegibility to the unitlated. He did not

Protests Against Cartoon.

against a cartoon appearing In Sunday's

tion: "He Impersonated a highway
man." Portland people know well the
recent sad circumstances to which if re

who unfortunately caused the death of
a friend and the bereaved family of the
victim have 'all suffered enough. It
