The highway robberies which were
reported in the Olympia correspond.
ence of the Tacoma Morning Globe
this morning, are absolutely denied
by Chief of Police Savidge. We,

marvellous exploits encountered in
dime novels, gives them to the pub
lie as events that should have happened
in our midst. But we are thankful
they are of the non-entity class, and
cannot receive any sanction from those
who are interested in the public affairs
of Olympia.
