We do not know anything about the facts and the evidence which led to the conviction of Sudie Han non, the 12-year-old girl, at Concord last week, who was sentenced to the penitentiary for five years. She killed a worthless man who had houndeu her, andthe defense claim eJ, whether true or not we do not know, that she was forced to shoot to protect her life and save her honor. A pitiful case this, a young girl whose mother is dead and whose father had practically left her to the charities of a cold and pitiless world. She no doubt was guilty, but be that as it may, it is a shame upon our state that a small girl like she is cannot be sent to a reforma tory The defeat of the good roads proposition for the issuing of bonds is to be regretted.
