son of Mr.. and Mrs. S. c. Dunn
prominent Grangeville people, who re
side just west of Grangeville.
The Free Press believes that il
expresses the consensus of opinion
of the tax payers of Idaho county in
stating that the dismissal of the rob-
berry charge against Mr.. Manford
Dunn, the young man who has lived
an exemplary life in our midst, meets
the hearty approval of the public. 1t
was the duty of the officials to full
ly investigate the charge. This was
done, and the testimony as to the
identity of the man was overwhelm-
ing to the effect that the defendant
was not the person seen in Cotton
wood and who is presumed to have
committed the offense. The County
attorney in his wisdom has done the
proper thing, saving the public the
cost of an expensive trial, and in
view of the character of the six citi-
zens who testified for the defendant
and the certain doubt that exists as
to the identity of the young man, the
solution was a wise and Just one
and we trust will reflect credit upon
all concerned.
To Mr.. Belknap and his generous
attitude toward the young man. In
fact the suit has terminated in a most
happy manner. May the young man
and his parents have the esteem of
all the public.
