Case on Trial Involved
John H. McEvans, assistant United States district attorney, in defense of the information pointed out the government is entitled to determine in a fair and legitimate way the standing of juror and that an endeavor by Tom Boise had been made to give the defendants, Dan and William Boise, six preemptory challenges instead of three, thereby taking away from the government its lawful right. Mr. McEvans pointed out that Mr. Rice was relied upon by the government counsel to report on the standing of jurors and that Tom Boise had come to inform the district attorney as to the standing of men called for jury duty on the enforcement of prohibition.
The impaneling of the jury in the case against Dan and William Boise, Lewiston, charged with possession and sale of liquor in eight counts and with maintaining a nuisance at 6271 Main street in Lewiston, occupied practically all of the morning session. The trial of the case will probably occupy the rest of the day and may continue until tomorrow noon.
To Finish Thursday
The fall term of the United States in session here since last Monday, will probably close Thursday, according to court officials today. The case against Ruth Hazelton of Weippe on the liquor charges, will be tried to district court for the central division.
Tomorrow.
The case against Willis Fields of Juliaetta, charged with possession and sale of liquor and maintenance of a nuisance, will be tried Tuesday.  The jury failed to reach an agreement in this case in the first trial Thursday and was discharged.
