Trial verdict and punishment for Miss Pisgler sparks debate
The State Journal critiques the Miss Pisgler case, framing her as a reckless adult who killed a colored boy stealing pears. It contrasts punishment of the rich and poor, calls it unsafe to mock the law, and questions equity in legal penalties. The piece shifts to a Calderhead quotation on farm prices and then criticizes Pacific railroads debt and proposed government actions.
