SUNDAY but ne has never limited on the bench AZ
his preference for Methodlsm over Mormonsm. He
is ready to aid In any way his political associates,
but ne has avoided demonstration to prevent the
MormonS from charging him with hostility ana

There less tnan SIX Indictments OF murder In

United States Marshal would do them Justice and
they viii not give themselves up TILL Judge Mexican
Is removed and new Judge replaces him.
The Hon. rom Fitch ~ now Br gnam's candidate
for the position OF Judge Mexican, with the under
standing that his decision the question or the
marshals and attorneys would be all right. This Il
an interesting moment In Erigham'S life. ana much
OF his peace and property are dependent upon the
action OF President Grant on the petition asking
the removal oil Mexican.
