TWO PLACES AT
NORTH REDWOOD
ROBBED TUESDAY

A case of oil, clock and $3.50
in cash was the loot of robbers
who broke into the Skelly Oil bulk
plant and North Redwood Granite
works early Tuesday morning
leaving no clues.
At the monument works, they
entered through the shed door, af-
ter removing the paddock, prob
ably with a bolt clipper. The safe
was opened, evidently by working
the combination "a fact which
points to local thieves. The inside
door of the strong box was smash
ed and the drawers inside ransack-
ed, but only a small amount OF
cash had been left there the night
before. Coming to work at z a. m,
employees found tie office floor
strewn with ledgers and papers
which the robbers had gone
through in their search for valu-
ables. A granite clock was also
missing.
The Skelly bulk plant lost case
of oil and probably a few gallons
of gasoline from the outside pipes
in its third robbery. A. A. Beck
er, manager, found the locks of
the station broken when he came
to work Tuesday morning.
Sheriff L. j. Kise who was call
ed on the case was unable to dis
cover any clues.

FORMER CONGRESSMAN
HOPEFUL; WAS AT

A prediction that 1886 will
mark the return to political su-
premacy of the Republican party
was made by Frank Clague, Red

congressman, as he returned last
week from attending the G. o. P.
convention in Cleveland.
Il look for the Landon-Knox
ticket to oust the Democrats and
President Roosevelt" Mr.. Clague
stated. "Landon is the strongest
candidate for president the party
could have picked, while Knox
likewise is a good man." He
characterized the convention as
one of the best the Republicans
have ever held and remarked that
the delegates seemed to exhibit
new found enthusiasm and eager
ness.
Commenting on the third party
movement of Representative Lem
Ike of North Dakota, the former
congressman averred that it
should cut quite a figure in the
Dakotas and other western
states"
Mr.. Clague, always a staunch
Republican, was accompanied to
Cleveland by Mrs. Clague. He
conferred with several Republican
notables including Colonel Knox,
the vice-presidential nominee.
