BLANCHARD
FOUND CILTUYY
Was Convicted of Burglary in The
District Court Tuesday at
County Seat
CLAIMED HE WAS ONLY DRUNK


F. +. Blanchard was tried in
the district court at Standpoint
this week before Judge Flynn on
the charge of having broken into
the store of f. L. Little & Com
pany during the month of Deem
Der. The case occupied the atten-
ton of the court for two days and
determined effort was made by
the defendants attorney to free
him but the jury in the case
brought in a verdict of guilty of
burglary. Blanchard will be
sentenced today.
Marshall Worley, Constable Nc
Greevy, Louis Hummer, George
Causton and Z. l.. Little were wit
nesses for the state at the trial.
Blanchard told at Standpoint that
he was formerly locomotive fire.
man but his eyesight was impaired
by flue bursting and he has been
unable to secure employment at his
old vocation. He was discovered
by Marshals Morley and McGreevy
of Boomers Ferry, the morning of
December 10 tn, 1913, lying along
side the big stove in the Little store
apparently asleep. He had broken
the window of the front door and
it was the noise he made in doing
so that attracted the attention of
McGreevy. Blanchard says that
he was drunk at the time and has
no recollection of breaking into the
store.

BASKET BALL TEAM AWAY TODAY
Newport and Priest River Games To Be
Played Later

The Boomers Ferry High School
Basketball team did not make the
trip to Newport and Priest River
last Friday and Saturday as was
scheduled owing to the fact that a
telegram was received Thursday
night from Priest River to the
effect that the town was quaran-
tined. Newport could not pay
expenses for the one game so the
dates were changed to February
9th and 28th.
The local school team left today
for Libby, Mont. where they are
scheduled to meet the school team
of that place tonight. On Satur-
day night they will play the Flat
head High School team of Kalis-
pell, the same team that played
here two weeks ago, and defeated
the locals in close game.
Coach J. +. Carlson will take
the following players; Campbell
Kent, Norton, Bangs, O'Callaghan
Loughney, Johnston and McNam
ara.

Box Cars Robbed

Thieves broke into a box car at
the Spokane International railway
depot Tuesday night and stole Is
pounds of sausage which had been
left for shipment by the City Meat

on the Great Northern tracks were
broken into but as far as is known
no goods were stolen.

than we actually need.

AS to site, l do not believe the
School Board would be justified,
under the circumstances. in pur-
chasing site outright, without
first having an advisory vote by
the people, although the law en-
powers them to do so. The site
would determine, in a great
measure, the amount of money
required to build, for it would cost
much more to construct the same
building in some localities than it
would in others, owing to the cost
of proper foundation.
Therefore it would be impractic
able as we'll as confusing to have
the selection OF site and bond
issue voted upon at the same cleo
ton, besides leaving the location a
matter of uncertainty. AS one
member of the School Board l will
favor either of the following plans,
viz:
l. The School Board to select a
suitable site and get an option up
on it for a sufficient time, ascertain
how much building we need and
its approximate cost, then ask the
people for bond issue to cover the
amount. If they approve the site
and are satisfied the bond issue is
not exorbitant, they will vote for
it. If this fails try another site or
2. The Board to get options
upon likely locations and ask for
advisory vote of the people, con-
fining the voters to the same quail
fications as that required to vote
upon bond issue, and calling for
clear majority of all votes cast
for a selection. If no location has
such majority, take the two having
the highest number of votes and
have another election to determine
which it shall be.
Then when the site is settled
call for whatever is needed to
build.
1t seems to me that either of
these methods would be fair and
equitable, and the expense would
be nothing as the officers of school
elections serve without pay the
same as members of the Shchool
Board.
The people of this District are
progressive and liberal in all public
matters and especially so in school
matters, and all they are waiting
for is simple, plain business propo-
sition, without any possibility for
mistakes or manipulation, and
they will come across but they
cannot be frightened into accept
ing pig in poke.
Very Respectfully
Thos. ]. Jones.

ANOTHER SIDE
OF THE QUESTION
Chairman of School Board Of lndepsnd-
emit School District No 4 Submits
Bending Election Plans
SAYS SELECT SCHOOL SITE FIRST
Does Not Believe People Of This Dis
trict Unprogressive

Another view of the question of
building a new school house in
Independent School District No a
is presented this week to Herald
readers by Thomas ]. Jones. The
Herald is glad to publish articles
of this nature dealing with subjects
which have to do with the general
welfare of the community. Mr..
Jones letter reads as follows:
Editor of the Herald:
The article in last weeks Her
ala about the erection of new
school building in District No a,
contains some things with which l
cannot agree, and as l am a mem
: Der of the School Board ! will ask
space in your paper to state some
other views of the situation.
That portion of the article which
arraigns the people of this District
for neglect, stinginess, desiring
cheap education for our children
and general dictionary senti-
ment upon educational matters,
was certainly not intended to be
taken seriously, for there is alb
solutely no ground for imputing
such sentiments to the people of
our District. They have done
nothing to deserve such criticism,
for they have had but one oppor-
tunity to express themselves, and
think they were fully justified in
turning down that proposition.
In my opinion, if any one is to be
blamed or shamed" for our
present condition, it is those who
advocated tn e bond issue of
$40, 100000 without any assurance
to the voters as to where the school
building would be located, and
when this was rejected still persist
ed in the more unreasonable pro-
position of consolidation" with
bond issue of from $4,000 to
800, 600 and the location remaining
as uncertain as before. With
that portion of the article which
points out our lack of room and
the urgent need for another build
ing in our District, l most heartily
agree. More than a year ago
sincerely hoped we would have a
new building ready for the beginn-
ing of the present school year, but
the two campaigns mentioned
above, consumed all our time and
are responsible for our present
situation.
But I do not blame or shame"
anyone in the matter, for | give
the advocates of those plans credit
for doing what they thought was
best at the time, although | dis
sented from both propositions, and
think that time has demonstrated
the wisdom of the people in re-
jecting both proposals. We hear
it said, that if everybody had
fallen in line on the first bond pro-
posal, we would now have build
ing; but the question is where
would it be. This has been the
main point all the time, and is
more so, now than ever before, for
the people realize that they are we'll
within their rights when they de-
mand to know where building is
TO be erected before voting the
money to build it, and also to
know that no more is being asked
for than is really needed for our
requirements. Just because we
are fortunate i'll having a wealthy
District is no reason at ali, why
we should ask for more money

City VS.. Country Life

Atlanta, July 0.-Mr. w. z.
Middleton, who has a handsome
home near Druid Hills in Allan
ia, was worrying a bit this sum-
mer over his family's usual out
ing. He wanted to get away
from the hot asphalt and the
noise, but ready money was a
little short and his family was
rather a large one to outfit for a
fashionable resort.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Thompson,
who live in nice little place of
a thousand inhabitants, one of
the prettiest towns in Georgia,
didn't have anything particular
to do this SINNER, and wished
they could afford to take the
children and go to the city for a
while. They were figuring on
hotel expenses and giving up the
idea when a letter came.
Here's letter from Cousin
Will Middleton. in Atlanta, "said
Mrs. Thompson. They all want
to come to the country for a
while, and ask abont renting a
place. F"
Lets swap them ours" sug-
guested one of the children. And
that is what actually happened.
The Miduletons packed up and
went to the country and the
Thcmpson's turned over the COW
and the horse and the chickens
to them and hiked for Atlanta
and the house near Druid Hills.
They have lived in each others
houses for three weeks now and
their letters say that everybody is
happy, except that Mr.. Middle
ton experienced considerable diff,
ficulty in learning to milk the
cow and Mrs. Thompson had a
dickens of tine cooking on the
Atlanta gas stove without having
an explosion.
That looks like an idea more
folks than the Middletons could
carry out and have a change OF
air without extra expense.
