THE ROBBERS
Two Suspects Held at Co. Jail
Four have been Released.
After two new Suspects

Last FRIDAY morning Sheriff FOrs-
berg returned on the 500 with two
men whom he had arretsed at Green
bush on suspicion of being impIicat-
ed in the bank robbery at Stpehen.
He left Immediately for Emerson to
bring down four suspicious characters
that had been gathered in by the
Canadian police and held in that
town. Sheriff Anderson. of Kittson
county, assisted in conveying the
suspected men to this city.
A III the men arrested on suspicion
were placed under surveillance and
put through a sweating process at
the earliest possible moment. No.
thing could be found connecting the
men arrested at Emerson and
Dominion City, with the robbery.
They were evidently lumber jacks
or miners. and the stories they told
of their whereabouts on Tuesday
night we're verified to the satisfac-
tion Of the county authorities. hence
they were allowed to go and were
given $500 each to pay their way
back. Against the two men arrested
at Greenbush there is claimed to be
a chain of circumstantial evidence
that in all probability will convict
them of participation in the robbery.

him of the arrest of two we'll known

of being implicated in the Stephen
robbery. Sheriff Forsberg left for
Minneapoil last night to get the men
and is expected to arrive with them
tomorrow morning.
The horse and buggy that was
stolen from A. a. Dickinson by the
robbers. had been driven into brush

same locality where the Donaldson
bank robbers are Known to have he!z''

in hunting down the criminals is be-

is to make it so hot for them that
they prefer to desist. Life and pro-
perty at no place are secure when
such men are allowed to roam at
large cracking safes and committing
other depredations at short intervals.
The MINNEAPOLIS Journal states
that 1923, 900 have been secured by
yeqgmen in fourteen robberies in
the Red River valley since the first
of the year.

 Following a period of social pleasure, beginning with the delightful musical al the Alabama yesterday afternoon and concluding with the reception at the Noble institute Wednesday night the daughters resumed business proceedings today.
 Most of the session was consumed by a discussion of the Natchez trace, an orig inal highway which traversed parts of the states of Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi. It is proposed to raise a sum to construct fitting monuments along the route of this primeval road, so as to perpetuate it's course and the incidents connected with it in the history of Ala bama. Each monument will cost $75 and the matter of raising the money for them was left with Mrs. l.. c. Pride of Pride's station, who win confer with the vari ous chapter regents with reference to the advisability of the project.
 Favorable resolutions were adopted. This road In Alabama traversed Colbert and Lauderdale counties. It was proposed to cooperate with Mississippi in this work. but Alabama will probably take the first step, acting independently.

Republican Meeting.

The action of the republican club Of Ensley at it's meeting last night has been a matter of much comment among the people who take an interest in matters political. F. G. Cutter was elected pres ident: r. B. Parker, secretary A. E. Meahl treasurer. None of these gentle men aspire to political office but they hope to build up a strong sentiment among the people of Ensley favorable to their political faith. The matter of the consolidation of the Ensley and Wylam postoffices was discussed at length, espe- cially as the rumor has gone forth that J. K Thomas of Pratt City would be appointed to the position as postmaster. resolution was adopted in which a strong plea was made that the consol- idation be not made at this time. T. G. Kennemer, J. W. Brigman and w. l. Miller are the Ensley aspirants for the position and the prevailing opinion seems to be that one of these gentlemen should be appointed in preference to an out slider.
