Over Six Thousand Dollars Taken
by Safe Blowers

Safe blowers entered the First
National Bank at an early hour
Monday morning by forcing the
outside door with bar of iron.
Nitro-glycerin was used and the
doors to the vault and safe were
torn from their hinges, and the
force of the heavy explosions fore
ed one of the heavy plate glass in
the front of the bank building and
shattered an upper light. They
secured $6,4l378 and departed as
silently as they came.
The peaceful slumbers Of some
of Camden's citizens were disturb
ed by muffied explosion about
1915 a. m. This was followed by
five reports from 5 to Is minutes
apart, the last and heaviest report
occurring a little after l O'Clock.
Admission to the vault was gain
ed through the door and a hole was
picked through the brick part of
the vault large enough for man
to get Though. Picks and other
tools were taken from the section
house and elsewhere about town.
Five men were connected with
the robbery, and it is evident they
were we'll informed as to conditions
and went about their preparations
with care and delberation. They
barricaded two approaches to the
bank with rolls of barbed wire and
sheet iron and cut two telephone
cables. Two men patrolled the
streets and the nearby allies, and

THOMAS ENDORSED.

At a meeting of the Republican
Senatorial Committee of this dis
trict in Camden May Is, 1912, the
following address to the Republi-
cans of the Senatorial District was
adopted:
We, the Republican Senatorial
Committee, for this Twenty-sixth
Senatorial District of Tennessee,
in meeting of the committee duly
called and assembled in the town
of Camden, Benton County, Ten
nessee, on this the 18th day of May,
1912, believing and fully realizing
that this Senatorial district is Dem
ocratic by safe majority, and that
the Republican party by strict
partisan vote has no chance to elect
a Republican to the State Senate
at the November, 1912, election,
and,
Whereas, we further believe and
further believe and realize that it
is not wise, nor for interest of the
principles for which we stand that
we nominate candidate for the
State Senate, this year, and be-
lieving as we do, that it would re-
suit, as it did two years ago, in the
election of a machine Democrat,
who opposed fair election laws and
the enforcement Of the laws pro-
hibiting the sale of whiskey in the
State, and,
Whereas, we believe the MAORI
ty of the legal voters of this the
Twenty-sixth Senatorial District,
regardless of partisan politics,
stand for good government, the
enforcement of all the laws and are
opposed to the repeal or modifica-
ton of the election laws now on our
statutes, by which every voter is
entitled to cast his vote as he sees
proper and have said vote counted
as cast, therefore, be it
Resolved, by the Republican
Senatorial Committee, for this the
Twenty-sixth Senatorial District,
that is the sense Of this committee,
that we do not call a convention for
the purpose of nominating candi-
date for Senator, be it further
