|OF j. s. CHARGE
in BANKING CASE
Not Guilty of Misapplica-
ton of Funds-Disagree
on False Reports

R. F. Bicknell, former president: j.
II. Black, vice president, and G. r.
HIT, cashier of the defunct Overland

Sunday found not guilty of misappli-
cation of the banks funds but the

false reports to the comptroller in the
items of excess loans. The case was
tried in federal court at Boise.
Bicknell was bondsman for the con-
tractors on the Grangeville-W hitebird
link of the North and South highway
He is reported to have lost much money
in this enterprise. -.
U. S. District Atty. E. G. Davis, said
that he would probably proceed to re-
try the defendants on the latter charge

members of the jury had a right to
substitute heir own idea as to the evil
dence testified to by Witnesses. They
were informed by Judge Been that
they had not. The jury then retired
and returned sealed verdict Sunday.
The trial of the case occupied two
weeks. Indictments were returned by
the grand jury this fall. The bank
failed more than year ago. All the
defendants are prominent.
Bicknell was food commissioner TOT
Idaho during the war. He is a sue

NO WATER WATER FOR
HORSES ON NEW
STATE HIGHWAY
Freighters and Stockmen See
Great Inconvenience on
North South Road

Absence of water on the North and
South highway, between Grangeville
and Whitebird, is of great inconven-
fence to freighters and stockmen, they
assert.
On the new grade, at no place is wa
ter to be found for freight teams, cat
tie sheep or hogs. Freighters, in order
to water their teams, are obliged to un-
hitch their horses and drive a consid-
cradle distance from the road, before
water is found.
One freighter, who was in Grange
vile the first of the week, declared the
road apparently was built exclusively
for automobiles, with no thought of
those who drive horses over the new
highway. 1t is said that from several
places not far distant from the high
way, water could be piped at nominal
expense to the new road and water
trOughs could be installed.

Up HIS VOYAGE
TO ARGENTINA
Will Have Trip to Prison
Instead, with Plenty of
Time to Think Things Over
Has Fun Signing Another
Mans Name to Checks, but
His Joy Doesn't Last Long

Instead of punching cows on the
.pampas of the Argentine Republic,
William Emerson Corrado, self confess
two to fourteen years in the Idaho
state penitentiary at Boise.
Corrado was taken to Lewiston from
Grangeville Sunday, and on Monday

Several weeks ago, prior to having
forged three checks, Corrado appeared
at the office of the idaho County Free
Press, in Grangeville, and declared he
wanted to go to Argentina, but
didn't know how to get there. He was
advised to write to the consul, of the
Argentine Republic, at San Francisco,
and he forthwith wrote a letter to
that official. Whether, prior to his
check-writing difficulties, he received
a reply from the consul, giving him in
structions on how to proceed to the
South American republic, is not known,
but at any rate he will not get there
for the next few months. at least.
Corrado, who has been working az q
ranch hand on Camas Prairie, was ar
rested on complaint of the Sims store,
where he passed check for $3.50, to
which he had forged the name of A. E.
Smith, rancher residing near Grange
vile. The check was made payable to
Corrado, and he had Endorsed it. He
presented the check in payment for a
pair of mittens, valued at $3.50, and re-
ceived $22 in change. This money he
had spent when arrested in Lewiston,
but the mittens were recovered.
EASY ROAD TO RICHES
1t is pointed out that Corrado may
have received information from the
consul telling him of the cost of the
South American trip, and inasmuch as
nance the voyage, he decided to raise
When arrested in Lewiston, he had in
his possession blank checks on a Lewis
ton bank, and it is believed he intended
to go into the check-writing business
in that city.
Corrado also passed a $15 check to
which he had forged the maine of
Smith, at the Thompson jewelry store,
in payment for $3.50 watch and chain
The watch and chain were returned to
the store by the officers. The money
was gone.

QUIET CHRISTMAS;
SNOW rs LACKING

Christmas was quite day in Grange
vile. There were numerous family
gatherings, with Christmas trees and
gifts for the kiddies. Santa Claus ar
rived Sunday night, on schedule time,
according to statements of the rising
generation, and delighted the young
sters.
Christmas exercises were held Sun
day night in the Federated church, with
a program by the children.
Midnight mass was celebrated Sun
day night in the Catholic church, and
was largely attended by members Of
the parish and persons Of other faiths.
The church was especially decorated
for the occasion.
Chinook winds late last week melted
the snow that had covered Camas
Prairie, and consequently on Camas
day the outdoors did not present the
appearance of typical Christmas.

REVIVE TALK
OF MISSOULA
RAIL CUTOFF

Talk of the Northern Pacifs
railroad building the much+dis-
cussed Missoula cutoff, from
Missoula, Mont, to Lewiston, is
revived in Montana newspapers
of recent date. The story is
printed in Butte, Anaconda and
Missoula papers. Missoula papers
say twenty miles of the proposed
cutoff was completed out of that
city several years ago. The
newspaper articles associate the
proposed railroad construction
with plans of the Weyerhaeuser
timber interests of milling their
timber holdings in the Clear
water country. The Weyer'
haeuser interests are considering
building a big lumber mill in
Lewiston.
