The Stanley Statement

j. V Stanley makes a personal
statement to the people of Boundary
county, and the state of Idaho in
this weeks issue regarding the I'M
fortunate situation in which he is
placed at the present time.
So far as the press and the people
of this community are concerned
Mr.. Stanley has had the most rea-
sonabe consideration. The Herald
has already asked for an arrest of
judgment on the part of the public
pending the presentation of the evil
dence in the case in the courts,
and there has been an undoubted
effort among the best citizens to
allay prejudice. Mr.. Stanley is mis-
taken in thinking that "a strong
effort has been made to create pub
lie sentiment" against him. There
is no attempt to get him out of
the way" nor has the accusation
which has been made against him
any political significance whatever.
1t is natural that in the press
itPOi - iiiiiS biiN iilNiNNhN Viz
fact should be noted that he is he
democratic nominee for congress. A
candidate for such a high office is
certainly in the lime light, and may
expect to have his character and
record subjected to the closest scru-
tiny. There are not the slightest
grounds for the intimation that the
case was developed for the purpose
of injuring Mr.. Stanley's political
prospects. He should bear in mind
the facts leading up to his present
predicament. If any responsibility
may be charged or credit taken for
the discovery of the alleged crime,
the confession of the complainant
and the subsequent arrest of the de
PENDANT it may be located within the
circle of his own intimate friends.
That his own political associates
were the first to recognize the seri-
BUSINESS of the charge made against
him is evidenced by the vacancy
which was arbitrarily declared in
the presidency of the Wilson club
