MUCK -RAKERS SEEK
SCANDAL IN MOSCOW
RUMORS CHARGING PROMINENT
CITIZENS WITH CRIME HAVE
NO FOUNDATION

For several days there have been
rumors in circulation in Moscow that
two prominent men had been arrest
ed for criminal intimacy with a girl
of tender years. The rumors varied
as they were repeated, from the SIM
pie statement that these men (their
names were always used) had been
charged with this offense, to the
statement that warrants for their ar
rest had been issued and later this
grew into the statement that they
had Compromised the case for $780,"
The matter eliminated in The Star
Mirror receiving letter addressed to
the contribution box" signed by
Moscow woman, and in which she
charged The STAR Mirror with sup
pressing the facts and shielding these
men (using their full names in the
letter. and saying she had shown
this letter to more than 200 citizens
today and it has met with their ap-
proval and we will see if it is pub
lished or shall our girls of from IL
to 16 years of age continue to be
ravaged."
For the benefit of this woman who
has peddled this letter to "over 200
citizens" we will say that had she
taken the steps The Star Mirror took
when the rumors were first started,
she would have learned their utter
falsity and it would have been far
easier than to take the letter to 200
different persons.
The Star-Mirror editor heard the
rumors more than week ago. This
paper does not publish rumors about
and especially about peo-
pie who are responsible citizens, have
families and, so far as we know, are
leading respectable lives. There is
a libel law against publishing any
thing derogatory to persons char
acter if it be untrue. The STAR Mir
ror editor went to headquarters to as
certain if the stories told were true.
He went first to the office of Sheriff
Woody and asked if warrants had
oeen issued or served against these
men. This question was the first
intimation the sheriff's office had
that there were any such rumors.
Deputy Sheriff Peterson said no war
rants had been placed in the hands
If the sheriff or his deputies and they
knew nothing of such case.
The editor then called on Probate
Judee Nelson. The Judge had not

COMMERCE CHAMBER
HELPS BOY SCOUTS
GOOD ATTENDANCE AT TUES
DAYS LUNCHEON = MUCH
BUSINESS TRANSACTED

There was good attendance at the
weekly luncheon of the chamber of
commerce Thursday, the tables being
filled and much interest was manifest
ed. The chamber had appointed COM
mittees to prepare for the meeting of
North Idaho Chambers of Commerce
here today and tomorrow and the com
mittees reported everything in read
mess and the people having respond
ed to the call for rooms for the Wis
itors. The question of the boy scouts
was taken up and the committee on
this matter filed the following report:
Gentlemen: Your committee met
and carefully considered the report
and budget of Scoutmaster F. D. Haw-
ley. The scoutmaster has a very
comprehensive plan for the develop
ment of scouting here, and we most
heartily endorse the Boy Scout Move
ment in Moscow.
We find that scouting throughly
cultivates long neglected field; that
it is most necessary adjunct to
the home, social and church in the
wholesome development of boy life.
We note the hundreds of errands run
for the Red Cross and other wartime
organizations, the war gardens made,
the war loan and war drive posters
distributed, that the scouts sold near
ly $4,000 worth of government bonds
and war stamps, and thus realize the
patriotic service of which our boys
are capable Each scout tried to do
at least one good turn each day, which
means over 10000 kindly acts in
year. In their scout work, many of
the boys have learned cooking, bridge
building, advanced first aid, swim
ming, woodcraft, map making, sig
Mailing, and dozens of other useful
things not usually taught. The spirit
of scouting, which teaches boy to be
trustworthy loyal, helpful, friendly,
courteous, kind, obedient. cheerful,
thrifty, brave, clean and reverent,
should be instilled into every boy in
the nation.
We recommend that the chamber of
commerce, as the sponsor body for the
Boy Scouts of Moscow, approve of
the raising of the small budget ask
ed, and that the president appoint
to take charge of the cam
paign; this committee to have author
ity to complete any organization nee
to elect necessary officers, to
appoint solicitors, and to supervise the
of the funds. We sug-
gest that the week of June 8-14, as
recommended by President Wilson be
set aside for this purpose; and that !
campaign for associate
members of the Boy Scouts of Amer
lea be combined with the above bud
pet. Committee.
