One of the toughest looking

ger train and left on the south
freight. It was about the same
outfit, we understand, as
that showing in Auburn

doesn't have the "enterprise" to
get such a lot of bums, gamblers
and toughs to our town. We
prefer a little quieter and more
civilized living. Such affairs are
an outrage on any community.
