Gver thirty of the Inmates are scheduled to leave the prison this month, and among this number the rights of citizenship will be restored to five by the gubernatori dictum. One of the lucky ones will be Peter Derrenbecker, who has served a fifteen-year term from San Diego for a sault to murder. The law prescribes, among other thing that the rights of citizenship shall not restored to a discharged convict unless his behavior shall have heen exemplar: and the record of Derrenbecker shows plainly that, judged by this rule, he would have to suffer. About three vears ago the man was paroled and permitted to re turn to San Diego. His behavior was such that in a short time he was reported to Warden Hale, who went to San Diego to bring him back to the penitentiary Derrenbecker was drunk and disorderiy out on parole and several times while finally made a vicious assault upon a per- son with whom he had a disagreement. Tt was this assault which caused his pa- role to_be revoked. The Warden took the convict in hand, and upon his promise that he would con- duct himself in a decent manner on the trip to San Quentin he was not hand- cilted.

No questions were asked regarding the purposes for which he required the same, whether for | Castern shipment or shipment to San Francisco. On the 26th Chadbourne tended a meeting of the Association at Sacramento. a afterward he went to the Earl Fruit Com- pany's agent for crates and the agent ab- solutely refused to supply them to him.
