...image of doctors muttering midnight incantations over the sufferings of mute beasts is ridiculous enough to make most non-Hearst readers laugh at the anti-vivisectionists. They should. Two years ago the anti-vivisectionists paraded a steady stream of pet-owners to the State House for hearings on the Miles-Nolan vivisection bill.

Many a sentence of Crane's is beaded with the sweat that went into its construction. Despite these deficiencies, his pages twang with an intense, nervous conviction of actuality...
