EsOAPE OF BASS.

teNN' w NNHDf
The escape Of Sam Bass and his men
Is certainly anything but gratifying TO
the lawRbidng citizens in the counties
In which he has had his rendezvous,
and has operated ~ highway robber
To say that any one officer or set Of
officers In pursuit Of him are RESPONSE
bic for his escape would be unjust, when
the nature Of his escape Is understood,
yet there lisa responsibility restingupon
this escape which can not be overlooked,
When tho first robbery, NJ Allen, was
committed II was hea the duty Of the
local authorities 10 have been assisted
by tho stato forces, in AZ least trying TO
capture the robbers, for they were evils
IDENTIFY unable TO cope with them slngly
The sheriff Of county generally has
from one 10 half u dozen deputies, who
are expected TO execute the laws, make
arrests, etc, but TO summon promls'
cuous posse TO undertake the capture
of dangerous and well armed desperaN
does Is not always feasible Bass CONS
mitted robberies IN one county, then
another, and took refuge in the wilds Of
another Then which OF the sherills
ought to have first attempted his arrestY
Some would say, and naturally, too, the
sheriff of the county in which he was
hid, He, Bass, had six determined fol-
lowers, oil OF whom were well mounted
and equipped, They took refuge in
the wilds of Denton county, whore u
promisouous raid was made TO no end
The sheriff of Denton county could
at almost any time hav6 either killed
or captured tho robbers before ii was
too late, If ho had have had the proper
encouragement from tho governor, M
well NJ n warrant for his arrest which
was not forthcoming until after three
other robberries had been committed
IT. was then that tho governor was
stimulated "to do something" for popu-
lar indignation had become 10 great
that IL became an absolute necessity to
send state forces TO the scene. Major
Jones placed the field in the hands of n
trusly lieutenant, who deserves credit
Tor tho hard and enduring campaign
made against the bandits notwith-
standing his failure to capture them,
one thing, at least, was accomplished by
Major Jones and his co.operators Bass
was driven out Of the country. The
country in which the state troops have
been operating is almost jungle, and
Bass coul have been within hundred
yarl5 q his pursuers at different times
VIA impunity, The arrest of twelve or
lIteen men who are now lying in Jail ut
lyler, as accomplices shows that the
robbers had aid and abettors in the sur,
rounding country; and taking all these
facts into consideration, it was almost
impossible to secure their arrest. The
governor ought to have acted promptly
IN the beginning Of the disorder; then
something might have been accom-
plished. AS the matter now stands il
remains for the detectives to learn OF
Bass whereabouts, if they do not al.
ready know, and to secure his capture
by strategy, This method, the detec,
lives claim, is the only one now, by
which Sam Bass and his followers can
aver be taken.
