Robbery at Davis.

Some time last Friday night the
safe in the post office at Davis was
blown open by burglars and some-
thing like 800. was found and stolen.
The freebooters blew open another
safe but this man had his money
where the robbers couldn't find 1t.
Then the robbers wanted a little
whiskey and some cigars to keep
their stomachs and chinS warm in the
chilly night wind and were compelled
to raid saloon, after which they
stole team and buggy belonging to
Hessenius & Bunger and left Davis
enjoying it's slumbers. The robbers
drove east until they came to the
Sioux river about five miles below
Canton, where they unhitched the
team and hid the buggy in the brush.
Ernest Axelsson who lives down on
the Earl Boyce farm found the horses
and buggy Sunday and notified Sheriff
Opsal of the fact, and the Sheriff noti-
fed the Davis people that the team
and buggy had been found but the
robbers were probably hiding and
waiting for another chance to rob
some unprotected merchant, post
master or country bank.
1t would seem that the successful
bank robbers who did rushing busi-
ness in the northern part of the state
a month or more ago, have quietly
come down into this section for a new
harvest and they will get much if
people are not more careful. These
safe blowers find no trouble in get
ting into an ordinary safe and the
man with an ordinary safe and a wad
of money on hand need not be sur
prised if he is robbed. Up in the
northern part of the state not long
ago bank robbers used three charges
of dynamite before they could get at
the money and while engaged in this
work stood off the town until they
got the money and went away on a
hand car. There wasn't a rifle in
that town. A couple of good rifles
and two good men to handle them
could have driven the robbers away.
Two or three good rifles within good
range Of bank are better than six
policemen with revolvers. Robbers
can't stand rifles but they can keep
revolver men out of range.
The LEADER would suggest to all
post masters and small bankers the
wisdom of keeping their money be-
yond the reach of dynamite and a
dark lantern. Keep it where a brok-
en- safe won It expose it.
This robbery at Davis indicates
that gang is at work down this way
and it will not be surprising if other
post offices and some banks are not
robbed between this and Christmas.
The robbers in the northern part of
the state were bold and determined
and got away with good deal of
wealth, but nowhere did they en-
counter a good man with rifle.
