SHERIFF GEO. CAIN.
Dakota County Oflicer n Terror To
ltoozu Runners.
' Sunday's Lincoln State Journal pub
lished the following article from re
ports furnished by state otucers who
havo been activo in fighting tho li
quor importers since tho stato went
into tho dry column:
"WMln Ivvn stftftmbonta nnd a staff
of special agents havo been watching
the liquor trailic along tno Missouri
boundary, whilo a fleet of automo
biles has been patroling tho Wyoming
border, tho task of watching illegal
importations from northern territory
hnx devolved largely upon ono man
Sheriff Georgo Cain of Dakota City.
Minnesota, with a county option
system, had many wot counties prior
to July 1. Tho favorlto route of
bootleggers was through a corner of
Iowa, bringing tho liquor into o
braska by way of SlouvCity. Onco
having evaded tho police force of
Sioux City nnd crossed tho river, all
that lay between tho bootleggers and
an Immonso profit Avos, Sheriff Cain
and his stuff, with tho occasional as
sistance of u stato agent, .
In tho course of his patrol ulong
tho northorn border Sheriff Coin has
had some of tho most exciting ad
ventures that havo fallen to the lot
of any of Nebraska's prohibition law
enforcers. Ono of the most thrill
ing 'runnings was with irman named
James Davifyv late.t convicted of boot-
lcgKlnSiAA j "' - . .,
Davis hafl repeatedly asserted to
his comrades according to tho story
told by Sheriff Cain, that ho would
not hcaltato to shoot tho first officer
that tried to stop him with a cargo
of liquor. Later Coin met tho man
when ho had tho woll-advortlsed gun
and 480 quarts of whisky In his pos
session. But tho officer wos quicker
with his gun than tho self-styled gun
man, with tho result that tho man
was later convicted of bootlegging
and his cargo of llquoc was taken in
to custody.
Lator Sheriff ,Cain actually ran
across a bootlegger who used his gun.
Tho sheriff's automobilo picked up
the trail near tho border, and chased
tho alleged offender f6r six miles be
fore ho was overhauled. A continu
ous running gun fight was maintain
ed, and it was only after tho severest
kind of skirmishing that tho car was
captured, along with 125 quarts ofi
liquor.
There havo been numerous other!
exciting chases in and near Dakota
City. In all tho SherlfThas had a
hand in running down fourteen auto
mobiles later proved to bo operating
in an illegal liquor business. Elghti
of thoso cars were taken whilo work
ing with stato agonts, whilo three
were taken single-handed by Sheriff
Cain. Tho othor three wero taken
bv tho sheriff and his assistants.
" Sioux City, with soventy-flvo po
iiccmen, was poworiess to stop tno ih
quor traffic through its gates. Sher-
iff Cain, with ono or two assistants,
has almost succeeded in cutting of 11
all liquor importations from thati
source, according to stato officers."
