Boys Object Because Scout Troop
Has Not Been Organized Here

That more effort should be devoted
to organizing a boy scout troop in
Bonners Ferry was the sentiment of
those in attendance Monday evening
at the weekly luncheon of the com
mercial club. Although a committee
was appointed last fall to attend to
this matter and a meeting held of the
boys and others interested, yet nothing
has materialized. AS result the boys
are becoming disgusted as we'll as dis
appointed They state with reason
that the summer is passing rapidly
and that if a troop is to be organized,
something ought to be done at once.
The matter was referred to ID. G. Nc
Donald with instructions to get the
organization started if it is possible
to do so.
In this connection Chas. Ragland
spoke of the very good results that had
followed the holding of an annual
fathers and sons banquet at Sand
point He stated the boys were always
greatly interested in these meetings
and looked forward to them with much
pleasurable anticipation. The local
club members agreed with Mr. Rag
lands suggestion that similar ban
quet be held here and it is very prob

JURY FINDS
FOR DEFENDANT
PLAINTIFF LOSES SUIT IN DIS.
TRICT COURT IN HODGE
VS.. H0AGLAND
DONEHO0 TRIAL is CONTINUED
Set for Next Term of Court Upon
Motion OF Defendants Attorney.

The first matter to come before the
district court at the present session,
which convened Monday with Judge
McNaughton presiding, was the dispo-
sition of the James Donehoo case. Dom
ehoo being held on charge OF steal
ing stock. Upon motion of the defend
ants attorney, H. H. Taylor, of Sand
point, the case was continued until
the next term of court, Attorney Tay-
lor maintaining that sufficient time
had not elapsed between the time when
the defendant was arrested and the
present term of court to allow a prop
er defense to be prepared. Donehoo
was arrested last week.
The trial of the suit of j. ]. Hodge
VS. Fl. l.. Hoagland dragged out to con-
siderable length, over two days being
required to settle it. In 1919 Hodge.
bought ranch srom Hoagland paying
therefor $4,000. In this action he al
legged fraud, claiming that matters had
been misrepresented to him and that
he had been led to believe he was get
ting more land than was actually in
cluded in the transfer. He sought to
obtain title to the land without paying
the full purchase price. The jury re-
turned a verdict in favor of the de-
fendant late yesterday afternoon.
A large number of witnesses were
examined in this trial by both sides
to the controversy. The case for the
defendant was considerably strength
ened when the plaintiff, Hodge, was
/ forced to admit, under cross examina-
tion by Attorney O. G. Wilson, that he
had been convicted of perjury in Can
ada. He told how he and certain COM
panions had been arrested for snug
Cling horses across the international
line between Montana and Alberta, and
how they escaped the penalty therefor
by swearing falsely. He stated "alI
they owned in the world" at the time
was tied up in the horses, hence the
reason for the perjury. Shortly there
after one of the party while intoxicated
disclosed the truth, after which all of
them were tried for perjury. convicted
and sentenced to Is months, several
months of which Hodge had served.
Attorney o. G., Wilson appeared for
the defendant and was assisted by e.
W. Wheelan of Standpoint, who was
called in by Mr.. Wilson to assist him
when he learned that he would have
to appear as a witness. II. H. Taylor
of Standpoint appeared as attorney for
the plaintiff.
In the case of P E. Montague VS..
A. ID. Welch, before the court this
morning, Attorney o. G. Wilson of
fered motion for non-suit. The plaint-
iff was allowed leave to amend and
the case went over to the next term.

New Liquor Law In British Columbia

l.. II. Young, deputy customs in
spector at Eastport, was in Bonners
Ferry the first of the week. Mr. Young
states that affairs on the border are
much more quiet now since the new
liquor law went into effect in British
Columbia. On June 10 dispensary
law went into operation in that prov
ince under which all sales of liquor
are handled by a designated govern
ment agent. All former saloons ara
closed Mr.. Young states that the new
law makes much less work for the
custom officials in preventing the inn
portation of liquor into this country
by bootleggers.

ATTENDANCE
is VERYIPOOR

ChautauQna opened Saturday and
has been showing to very small audi
ences, due largely to the fact that very
little effort had been made to adver-
tise it and sell tickets. There was the
further handicap of having to hold ii
in the X. P. hall because no suitable
location for the tent could be found
on account of high water conditions
and also because of the mosquito pest.
The general comment of those at
tending has been that the programs
have been very good. The musical
numbers have been high class and the
lectures were very pleasing. Major
Mills lecture Sunday evening on Jean
Vatican" was a mastery effort. very
instructive and interesting. DR. James
Hardin Smiths lecture, Taste the Ap-
ples,' was humorous and contained
much merit. The concert by Blands
Orchestral Band was especially good,
and the program last evening was
equally pleasing.
Because of the small attendance and
little interest shown the guarantors
will be obliged to pay quite a substan-
tial deficit although the chautauoua
company has consented to quite mod
ification of the original contract. A.
A. Davis, the local director. said he
would probably not make much of an
attempt to secure contract next year
There seems to be quite decided op-
position in Bonners Ferry to the chau-
tauqua plan of insisting on a guaran-
teed contract. Monday evening at the
commercial club luncheon DIR Fry
spoke commendatory of the chautau-
qua and mentioned the fact that some
towns this year had paid a certain
stipulated sum to the chautauqua and
had then thrown the chautauqua open
free to the public. This was done at
Priest River, the merchants standing
the bill and paying something over
$4,000 apiece. Another place secured
120 people to pay $40 each and then
gave free program costing $1,000 90.
This plan seemed to meet with quite
a large degree of approval by those
present at the Monday night luncheon,
and some who have heretofore been
quite vigorously opposed to the old
guaranteed contract plan stated they
would favor move that would result
in free chautauqua for the COM
munity.
Those who had signed the chautau-
qua contract as guaranteed met with
Mr.. Davis, the director. this morning
struck balance sheet. 1t will be
necessary for each signer to contrib
ute S13 to meet the deficit
