GIRL MAKES
ACCUSATION
Warrant Issued Yesterday For Arrest
OF ]. V. Stanley Statutory
Rape Alleged
The ACCUSED is OUT OF TOWN
He Was Prominent Here Politically,
Socially and Religiously
The ACCUSED is OUT OF TOWN

Boomers Ferry has been on the
qui vive the past week when it be-
came generally noised about that
a young girl had made a confession
seriously involving a prominent and
highly respected citizen of this city
and that Prosecuting Attorney
leighton and Sheriff Morley were
working on the case and that arrests
would follow.
The matter, came to a climax yes
terday afternoon when on the COM
plant of the elder sister of the girl
in the case a warrant was issued
from Probate Judge O'Callaghan's
court in which j. V. Stanley, clerk
and auditor of Boundary county and
the democratic nominee for congress,
was charged with statutory rape.
The warrant for the arrest of
Stanley was telegraphed to Ada
county officials at Boise who were
instructed to hold Mr.. Stanley until
an official from this county could
come and take him into custody.
The girl in the case is Louise
Aldridge, 16 years old. She is the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. A. f. Aid
ridge, respected residents of the
Northside. The father is in the
Boomers Ferry hospital and has not
been notified of the trouble his
daughter is in.
Mr.. Stanley came here about four
years ago from Oklahoma. He pur-
chased ranch and planned to fol-
low farming on a large scale. When
Bonner county was divided he was
appointed county auditor by Gov
ernor Alexander. During his resi-
dence in this city he was active in
religious, social and political life.
He has a wide acquaintance here and
the accusations made nave astounded
his friends who are loath to believe
the charges.
In the affidavit sworn to by
Louise Aldridge she states that her
| hume 10 III DOllleIS rerIy, lndI she
attends high school and helps with
household duties at home; that on
or about the 25th of July, 1915, the
crime of statutory rape was COM
mitted by j. V. Stanley.
In the deposition the girl swears
that improper relations between her
and Mr. Stanley had occurred a
number of times prior to July %
1915.
Prosecutor leighton and Sheriff
Morley have also Investigated re-
ports of similar charges in at least
one other instance. No further in
formations have been filed.

Continuing its editorial broadside
of July 20, 1908, the Evening Cap
ital News says:
There was a sigh of relief
from all the people of Boise
when Mayor Alexander laid down
the insignia of authority and
became a private citizen. His
election, if he were elected, was
brought about by his organs
TRADE of abuse against not only
his honorable opponent, D. D.
Williams, but against those re-
publcans who, proud of their
party, kept it in the field as
worthy of the support of the
people of Boise by the utter
abandonment of party organiza-
ton by the democracy, whose
committee dropped into innocu-
Gus desuetude, and by all sorts
and conditions of men,"
Twelve years have slipped by since
this retirement of Mayor NJ. Alex
ander, but still there seems to be
something wonderfully familiar in
the first part of this next paragraph
in the editorial in The Evening Cap
ital News July 20, 1908. Listen:

tober oath.
The place where the mteting is

but was compelled to cancel the
date. Local temperance workers were
greatly disappointed at that time
but will be glad to hear now that
she will surely come here.

BOISE NEWSPAPER GIVES SOME
INTERESTING ALEXANDER DATA
BOISE EVENING NEWS TELLS OF GOVERNORS RECORD AS MAYOR
OF BOISE-THIS PAPER is NOW AN ARDENT
SUPPORTER OF ALEXANDER
Moses Aexande Record Mayor Much
Cast Which Untrue Would Have Constituted Good Libel Case
Proves the Contentious of the Herald

In recent issue the Herald made
the assertion that Governor Alexan-
der was not "dry" at heart and
that he had adopted the "dry" cause
when the movement was popular for
policy's sake.
Moses Alexander retired from the
office of mayor of Boise in July,
1903. He had served two years.
At that time the Evening Capital
News was being published in Boise
under the same management which
has controlled its policies the past
two years. For the past two years
the News has been an ardent sup
porter of Governor Alexander. But
not so in former days.
The following editorials clipped
from the pages of the Boise Eve
ming News refer to Moses Alexander
and his administration as mayor of
Boise.
Summing up the record of Mayor
M. Alexander for the two years The
Evening Capital News in its leading
editorial July 20, 1908, had this to
say:
Zone looks for laudation from
the paid advocate, and when
newspaper, from choice of cir
cumstances, becomes the lackey
of an individual, especially of
an egotistical, clustering indi-
vidual, totally lacking in all the
finer fibre and instincts that
govern gentlemen, there is no
depth of establishment to which
it will not be compelled to

CREAMERY STARTS MONDAY
Boundary Creamery Plant Is Now
Ready to Receive Cream

Manager F. S. Stoos, of the Boun-
Diary Creamery, has announced that
the new creamery plant will begin
operations Monday and that he will
accept cream shipments the remain
der of this week.
The local creamery will pay the
highest market price for cream and
Mr.. Stoos plans to give cream tests
to his patrons when they bring their
cream to the plant.
The plant would have been opened
for business a week or so earlier
but for delay in the shipments of
machinery and lack of help in erect
ing it.
The plant is equipped with both
steam and electric power. The ma
chinery which has been installed is
modern in every respect and Messrs.
Stoos and Gale, the proprietors, are
certain that the products of the
creamery will be second to none.
Thesfarmers have assured the new
creamery of their absolute support
and the business men of the CITY
will all handle the butter from the
Boundary creamery in preference to
out-of-town brands.
Evryone seems to be willing to do
anything to help aalong the new en-
terprise which fills long felt want.

TO RAISE G. N. TRACKS SOON
Great Northern Plans Additional I'M
prOvements Near This CITY.


A. H. Hogeland, chief engineer. for,
the Great Northern Railway system,
with headquarters at st. Paul, Mimi,
was in the city Tuesday of this
week and spent the day along the
line of the G. N. right-of-way east
of Boomers Ferry.
Mr.. Hogeland was accompanied bv
Great Northern engineer from Spo--
kane and Right-of-way Agent Whit.
comb, of Seattle.
Mr.. Hogeland could give no def
mite news in regard to the time.
when the Great Northern railway
would start work on the division
yards here. He intimated that work
would be started very soon, how
ever.
Mr.. Hogeland and his assistants
spent most of the day along the
hootenai canyon. 1t is generally
understood that the Great Northern
railway company plans to straight
enits tracks along the Kootenai river
and to also raise the tracks. It is
possible that some of the work will
be done this fall.
The proposed work will mean the
employment of a great many men
and the expenditure of large sums
of money, the greater part of which
is bound to come to Boomers Ferry.

FIRST PARADES TODAY
Crack Infantrymen Will Be Review
ed at Druid HiIl-To Leave Ar
mory at $50 p. Nj.

The patriotic Marylander. whose
pulse beats in double time when he
contemplates the soidiery of his ma
tive heath in action, had better pre-
pare for an over-worked heart action
today, or else keep himself away
from the field adjoining the lacrosse
| field in Druid Hill Park, north of
! the lake and west of the old pump
house.
! On that stretch of ground the
crack First Regiment, two days back
from the border, will exhibit itself
to the public of Baltimore, with
rigadier-General Charles D. Gaith-
er and Adjutant-General Henry M.
Warfield, as reviewers. Two things,
among a host of others, will make
today's spectacle well worth seeing.
One is that it is the first opportuni-
ty Baltimoreans will have had of
viewing one of it's military units on
dress parade since the call to the
border Another is that it will be
the last review General Gather will
make of the First before it is de-
modified
They will swing out of the Fifth
Armory at $50 this afternoon and
that overworked word Swing" be-
longs to the First's mode of lOcomo-
ton as it belongs to no other regi-
ment. From the six-footers of West
ern Maryland to the wiry smaller
youths from the Eastern Shore, the
First's is that devil-may-care swag-
ger that puts icicles on the backbone
of your hyphenated American.
They will march out Bolton street
to Lafayette avenue; out Lafayette
to Mount Royal avenue, and out
Mount Royal to Druid Hill Park. The
First'S band will furnish the accom-
paniment, marching up and down in
front of the long line of the regi-
ment standing at parade rest, and
General Gather and General War
field will ride up and down to look
the regiment over.
The men were glad to hear of the
arrival yesterday afternoon of Cap
tain Mitchell and Lieutenant Lane, of
the Regular Army, who will assist
Captain Edmund c. Waddill. Jr., in
mastering out the regiment. That
means that the work of accounting
for property will go along speedily,
anu that ul0ulCdl eAdHlludllOuS anu
other finalities will come in a week
or so. Captain Waddill said he did
not expect the men would remain in
camp at the armory longer than two
weeks.

rifle range work to do here yet. 1t
