Owners Who Refuse to Back

are Arrested.

! The automobile Of n. G. Chapman

was stolen from in front of the Grand
theater last evening between and
10 o'clock, and recovered by the
police about midnight at Second and
Morgan streets.
In the meantime, Mr.. Chapman had

having been used for Joy ride and
Position Of the Police.
The police generally do not arrest
the thieves although the offense is
a felony punished by term in the
penitentiary. Apparently, they do not
spend much energy on the cases.
They have real reason for this
apparent apathy.
They started to get the thieves
some time ago, and these cases al
ways require much hard work. They
found that invariably the owner Of
the stolen automobile refused to
the thieves. being satisfied
to get his car back. and caring moth

After several such experiences,
one marked one, they can't
see the use of spending weeks Of hard
work for nothing, the police depart
ment says, especially as its detective
force is limited and always very busy.
Some day, perhaps, the owner of
stolen car will back up the police,
the thieves will be sent to the peni-
Tertiary, Joy riders or not, and steal
Ing automobiles in Keokuk will cease.
But it is up to the motorists.
