1AinSil, Ndy - -OIIlCldlS ana Qe-
tectives of the Southern railway and
the Southern Express company, in
Aiken today, believe that the rob-
berry of the express car last night
near Warnville was the work of am
ateur robbers, and not few people
believe that It was simply carrying
out Of dime novel ideas. There are
many evidences to show that the
robbery was not committed by prof
essionals.
A Southern Express official said:
we will have the perpetrators within
"a hours, Last night special train
from Charleston bearing detectives
and officials arrivedat Warrnville and
work ferreting out the bold crime
was Immediately begun. This is the
first crime OF this character perhaps
ever attempted in this State, at least
in many years, and the officers are
thoroughly aroused over the daring
act.
tits stated OH good authority tha,
the detectives do not believe that
they will have to go out of the
bounds Of Aiken county to capture
the thieves. Itis reported that strong
evidence has been found against two
o four men under surveillance.
The amount &C money stolen was
2ot ma. in excess OF $500. 1t was

press car contained no more than

Aiken, said that he had $7O0 to send
by this express but withheld it until
today Only few days ago $4,000
was sent from the Aiken office, and
constantly large sums are sent.
Scarcely night express passes with
out taking a sum from the Aiken
office.

WHEAT PROBLEM
WILL BE SOLVED
Irrigation, Dry Farming and
Drainage the Future Saliva
ton of Agriculture.

Helena, Mont, Sept 21-Governol
Edwin L. Norris is in receipt Of a tele.
grOm from a New York newspaper ask
ing his views as to the recent statement
Of James J. Hill that the United States
viii soon become a wheat importing
nation. This address was made before
the bankers convention in Chicago by
the railroad magnate. The telegraphic
correspondence, which shows that Gov
ernor Norris has no such belief re-
spectlng Montana at least, is as follows:
Conditions in Montana do not indi-
cate that production of agricultural
products viii soon be less than the de-
mand for home consumption of the ma
ton Rapid settlement and more ex-
tensive cultivation Of agricultural lands
in Montana insure an ever-increasing
volume Of agricultural products.
Irrigation projects under way and
IN contemplation will increase the irri-
gated area six times the present
There are lands of sufficient
productive value to justify the cost of
reclamation and an available water sup
ply to irTigate the same, to further in
crease the irrigated area Farming
without irrigation is a proven success.
Twenty million acres of Montana lands
viii ultimately be cultivated at a profit
by that method. Reclamation and cuI-
uVatlOn without irrigation of western
lands and drainage of the southern
lands viii solve the problem of prOduc-
ton and continue this as an exporting
nation Of agricultural products. In the
west there are homes for those from
abandoned farms and crowded cities of |
the east"
