She is a pleasant true little woman, and it is a pity to hurt her with a suspicion - without proof. As to Stevens I feel satisfied that he knows who stole them, but so far we have no positive proof against him. Have told the facts to Strong of the Nugget and Parkinson of the News, & both will give a short statement of the facts.

The people here are all right, - they are honest and clearheaded - it is the official class which is so dastardly cowardly and corrupt. It must be cleaned out, and replaced by honest men. Am much relieved at the strong indignation expressed by all kinds of people about the theft, - the papers will condemn it, and it may be the means of making the thief more unpopular - if such a thing is possible.
