Western Outlaws Not Noble Heroes in Frontier View
A reader argues there are no heroic frontier figures like Billy the Kid. Desperadoes are lazy thieves who kill, with some brave men among them but driven by weapon mastery. True bad men avoid fair fights, preferring behind-attack or drunken shootings, and lack chivalry. Railroad completion signals the end of their era, countering East myths of noble Western outlaws. Col. Boston, Herald. Also mentions Kemp's Balaam remedy and political notes from New York Tribune about Republican party bosses and reform.
