THE ROBBERS PTURED

w men inc last number OF the AD-
VANCE WAS issued it was supposed that
the robbers had succeeded in making
their escape from the State, and that
they would get away entirely. But
before we had fairly got our edition
printed news came that three Of the
robbers had been captured and one
killed, at Madelia, details Of which
will he found on Off outside. Too
much praise can hardly be awarded to
the brave boy who gave the alarm, and
to the six brave men who 50 nobly per-
lied their lives and went into the brush
and captured the bandits.
There were eight men engaged i'll the
robbery, six of whom have been tanned
or captured, thus leaving two yet ut
liberty. The two men who passed north
of town on horseback, who were hunted
and chased by Worthington men for
nearly 4 week, and who are now being
hunted about the line Of the North
western Railroad in Iowa, are supposed
to he the two robbers above mentioned.
The six men killed or captured have
been identified by persons sent up from
Missouri for the purpose, as follows:
The two men tanned at Mortified are
Bill Caldwell and Clell Miller; the one
killed near Madelia, Charley Pitts, and
the three captured near Madelia are
Cole Younger, Bob Younger and AL
Carter, all members of the James,
Younger gang who have for years car
ried on a series of systematic robberies,
and who have heretofore eluded cap
ture. In view of the fact that the laws
of this State provide no adequate pun
lshment, and of the further fact that
members of the band have threatened
the lives Of persons engaged in the Cap
ture of the men, and also to burn the
town of Mortified, we should neither
be surprised nor grieved to hear that
the men captured had been lynched.
We do not desire this from a feeling Of
revenge, but as q measure of protection
to society. If they are imprisoned they
will break out in less than q year, and
will he more bloodthirsty and revenge
full than ever. Dr.. Murphy, Of St. Paul,
says the wounded men '';lre sure to get
well unless lie doctors them" Then
for Justices sake let him doctor them:
That will be the easiest solution of the
difficulty.
Who the men were who were seen at
the NarroWs Of Loke Ochecd;l, south
Of town, Oh Sunday week, or where
they went, is not known at this writ
ing. The general impression is that
they were members of the gang who
did not participate in the Mortified
robbery, but were here for the purpose
Of assisting the ones engaged in it to
escape by:drawing off pursuers, know.
ing that il they themselves were cap.
turcd they would have to he released
for we have not learned that they com.
mitted any crime in Minnesota, though
undoubtedly that kind of cattle.
