The Cheap Skates

Cheap skates are men whose idle
lives no sane results are giving,
wno loaf and argue while their wives
attempt to earn the living. While
men of vim and merit chase around
IN high endeavor, cheap skates SIT
in the market place and thresh stale
themes forever. They play cheap
games for cheaper stakes IN points
where skates assemble and talk of
toll with hoes and rakes will make
them finch and tremble. Cheap
skates are men who never pay un-
less through writ of judgement;
their promises Of yesteT day but
show what bunk and fudge meant.
They spoil their standotf at the
start, they mangle and behead 1t,
and now there is no store or mart
where they can buy on credit.
Their children have to blush tor
shame, their wives, as we'll, are
blushing, while they, to play a
checker game, through dark are
rushing. Cheap skates are chaps
who have no pride. who'd rather
Loaf than laoor, and smile when
TcharIty's supplied by some more
thrifty nelghbor. Cheap skates will
borrow book or hen. and never bring
them back again unless the peelers
make them. Cheap skates abound
in every town and rank not with Its
glories; they hold the shady benches
down and tell the shady stories. -

men located IN what is now Latah
county IN 1871. The fifth, Thomas
Tierney, located here in 1870. They
came here when the Paiouse country
was covered with bunch grass, wild
sunflowers and camas, giving the
face of the country the appearance
of vast flower garden.
At that time, according to the
story told by these pioneers, there
were few roads in the PaIuuse
country. the few settlers travelling
for the most part over trails made
by the Indians. They followed the
most direct course and the easiest
grades. There was no postoffice
here, or anywhere near. The first
postoffice was established one mile
off what is now Moscow's Main
street, March 10, 1878. The place
was known AS Paradise Valley and
the postoffice bore that name. Van.
lson Craig was postmaster. The
mail was then carried from Lewis.

dance and numerouss contests. At the

One of the fastest basketball games
that has ever been played on the local
floor occurred Saturday night. when

The local boys played hard, but very
good game. Coach Handley, who ac-
companled the Pendleton team, spent
most of his time cursing the referee

easily that Pendleton was a poor loser.
The final score was 27-20 in favor of
Hood River.

count of the county teachers institute

classes served lunch to the teachers.

DEFENDANTS WIN
in RIGBY CASE

A decision has been received from
Dalles, favorable to the last two de.
PENDANTS in the case of j. W. Rigby.
verus S. A. Mitchell, Louis A. Hen
derson and II. M. Hicks. The case.
involving charges of conspiracy and
fraud by MIR. Rigby on the part Of the
defendants in the transfer of houses
and lots here, created sensation. 1t
was filed while Mr.. Henderson, cap
tain in the engineering corps, was in
service in France.
The fraudulent manipulations. al
legged. occurred, according to the
charge of the plaintiff, during 1917,
when S. A. Mitchell, as trustee for the
plaintiff. sold houses and lots through
Mr.. Henderson to Mr.. Hicks. The
plaintiff further alleged that Mr.. Hen
derson had assumed the trusteeship.
The findings of the decision, how
ever, are to the effect that the busi-
ness negotiations were regular and
with the plaintiffs sanction. No fraud
was discovered attaching to either Mr..
Hicks or Mr.. Henderson. The case
was dismissed as against these two,
and Mr.. Hicks, in the language of the
court, was permitted to go out of court
with a clean certificate. The plain
tiffs were ordered to pay his court
costs. The court ordered Mr.. Hender-
son to refund to Mr.. Rigby the sum of
S79, deducted from the proceeds of the
sale as commission. He was further
ordered to bear his court costs. Judge
Wilson stated that he considered the
evidence conclusive that Mr.. Henderson
had not assumed any trusteeship of the
Rigby estate.
Mr.. Mitchell, who left Hood River
for Iowa in 1917, has failed to make
any appearance in the case. Judge
in'his decision, states that he
will continue the case as against him,
if the plaintiff wishes to press fur
ther accounting.
