DISTRICT COURT IN SESSION
Jury Decides for Defendant In Case
of State Against Dayton.

The fall term of the district court
opened Monday, Judge Flynn pre-
siding. The docket tor this term OF
court is light and it is believed that
all cases will be disposed OF by
next Tuesday.
Monday was occupied in the set
ting of cases for hearing or trial and
the hearing of demurrers.
In the afternoon the court heard
arguments in the case of the State
VS.. j. V. Stanley in which the defend
ant asked for a change of venue to
Kootenai county, alleging that it
fair and impartial trial ..in Boundary
county.
Attorney Cannon for the defense
submitted a number of affidavits
made by Boomers Ferry citizens in
which they stated that in their opin-
ion Mr.. Stanley could not be given
a fair trial in this county. The
state, through Attorneys leighton
and Wheelan, presented several af-
fidavits showing that there was no
undue prejudice against the defend
ant and that it would not be nee
essary for him to go out of the
county to secure justice.
Judge Flynn decided that it was
to Kootenai county but ordered that
it be tried before a Bonner county
jury. The date of the trial has not
been set.
One of the first cases to be dis
posed of this week in the district
court was the divorce suit of Chaun-
cey Guthrie against Anna Guthrie.
The plaintiff alleged that the de
PENDANT had deserted him without
cause or provocation. The defend
ant did not appear. Judge Flynn
granted the divorce. S. E. Henry
appeared for the plaintiff.
The jurors were called for yes
terday morning and the case of the
State against Denver p. Dayton was
taken up. This case was a criminal
action brought when the defendant
blocked a road which crosses his
property near Naples. The state
claimed that the road was public
highway and that Dayton had given
a deed for the road. The defense,
represented by Bottum & Wilson
and H. H. Taylor, contended that the
deed for a right-of -way did not COW
err the road in question. The jury
in the case decided in favor of the
defendant.
This morning Judge Flynn dis
missed the case of the Western
Typewriter company VS.. S. E. Henry,
the plaintiff not appearing. After
the case had been dismissed At
torney Flood appeared in court and
produced a telegram from the plain
tiff company authorizing him to APP
pear for them. 1t has not been de-
cided whether or not the plaintiff
company may renew the action.
A jury was secured this morning
Il n 1 H.
Kinnear against J. P. Dunn. Ir
this case Kinnear claims that the
defendant called on him to aid il
repairing a machine and that while
doing so he was struck by a screw
driver and his eye put out.

My Bow

With all my fairly generous i'm
pulses, l am often outdone by others
in generosity and courtesy. My OPP
ponent in the late election, Mr.. L.
n. Brown, has obligated me to this
acknowledgment, a little late, but
sincere. Early in the campaign, 1
asked Mr.. Brown for a list of his
past villainies, SO that | might have
some real campaign stuff, something
that ! could detonate in the manner
of Van Deusen or Clarence barrow.
On my. part l promised him like
material from my past. He never
gave me his list, which l took to
mean that he had probably lived all
his past the quiet, honorable gentle
man that Boundary county knows
so well. Such a life is of no inter-
est in politics. My compaign con-
firmed my respect for the citizens
of Boundary county, and after
thanking them for the honor of my
election, l pledge my studious and
conscientious duty to the vital in
terests of citizens and country.
