CHECK RAISER
WAS SENTENCED
RALPH WALKER, 1S-YEAR-OLD
YOUTH, SENTENCED TO PENI-
TERTIARY FOR FORGERY
Got Minimum Sentence and Some
HOmely Advice From Judge Steele
Other Court Business

Though compelling to sentence 1S-
/ year-old Ralph Walker OF the Clifford
lsection, to an indeterminate sentence
of one to IA years in the state peni-
tentiary the minimum under the law
for forgery, Judge Steele this morn
ling gave the youth some sage advice,
urging him to conduct himself with
decorum while in confinement, which
might result in shortening his time,
and urging the boy to return to him
after his release when he would use
his every endeavor to start him on
| the right road to a useful life To this
the youth promised and the boy was
remained to the custody of the sheriff
of Nez Perce county pending the ar
rival of guard from the penitentiary.
| Walker was given a check for 1915
| to cash by his mother The check
was on the Lewiston National bank
and was made out to his father by
one G. F. Wasem. Tiring of the
y
to leave for parts unknown, he raised
the check to read $130.75 and cashed
lit at Lapwai bank then fed to Ore
gon. He was apprehended at Klam
ath Falls by the Nez Perce county au-
thorities and brought back He en-
tered a plea of guilty before Judge
Steele here this morning and was at
once sentenced. Because of his youth
and the fact that he had never be-
fore been in trouble, the court was
inclined to be lenient. The boy was
accompanied here by his father. The
prisoner was taken to Lewiston by
Deputy Sheriff Welker this afternoon.
Very little business was transacted
in the district court this morning.
Judge Steele made an order citing
two other fire insurance companies to
appear in court to show cause why
settlement should not promptly be
made in the fire loss of Warren Tru
tit and William Hunter. affecting their
building at Main and Second streets.
Suit had been filed against the Phoe-
nix Insurance company for the pay
ment of $1715, the sum agreed upon
by the insurance company in the ad-
justment, but not paid because OF
concurrent companies with the Phoe-
nix failing to agree on the just pro-
portion and the judge therefore has
ordered the other companies into
court.
The court today made an order
granting foreclosure proceedings in
the suit of Mary C. Moore versus Geo.
D. Potter ct al. The sum involved is
s21OO
The court today ordered the dis !
missal of the mortgage foreclosure

only trouble is that he can't find any
thing with which to do the represent
