The Phoebe Record has a letter from
the Muddy valley, giving the following
particulars of the murder of Holland
and Carter at the Indian Reservation
Some W or three weeks ago a
couple of men arrived i'm the valley,
and have been lurking around ever
since. Several petty larcenies followed
their advent, until last Thursday night,
when the camp Of Pearce and Moore
two men from AriZona) was robbed.
Suspicion at once rested on the strang-
ers; their camp was found, so were
the stolen articles. The two men were
arrested and one of them taken down
to Justice Logan by w. II. Carter.
The other was escorted by q Mr.. Dry,
q citizen, and by Moore, but got away
from them on the way and made for
the Virgin river. Meantime the Dep
uty sheriff kept the other in custody
all day, and Friday night also. No
one appearing against him be was let
go on Saturday forenoon. About ii
O'Clock on the same day the one who
got away came back from the Virgin,
accompanied by two other men, os-
tensibly for the purpose of aiding their
remaining partner. Finding him free,
however, they all left the Deputy
residence about 5 o'clock on
Saturday evening, saying they we're
going to ~Pahranagat valley. 1 forgot
to state hat Moore and Pearce, whom
they had robbed, had confiscated one
OF their horses-there were conse-
quently but three horses and four men.
About half-past ten O'Clock Saturday
night they arrived at the Agency. b.
f. Holland and w. IL. Carter were in
the office, and had not yet retired. A
Mr.. Jones and wife were sleeping
about seventy-five yards off. Jones
was awakened by the dogs, when he
heard some m cry out, "throw up
your hands," and then followed three
shots in rapid succession. This scared
Jones, and he, with his wife, fled to
the hills. Sunday morning, early, he
and found Holland and Car.
ter both dead, lying about ten feet
the door and about six feet from
each other, the former shot through
the heart and the latter through the
left cheek, near the ear. Both had re-
by their side, and Carter a
shotgun, n barrel of which had been
and which took effect on
one of the gang, slightly wounding
him. Jones gave the alarm by gal
down to st. Joseph, then sent
at once to ST. Thomas, and the
settlers are in hot pursuit.
We may add that all Of the murder |
srs have been captured, and, by order
Of the U. S. District Attorney, they are
20 be taken before U. ). District Judge
Hillyer, at Carson, for trial. Deputy
s. Marshal Curtis, of Phoebe, will
probably pass this way with them
the next few days.

element necessary 70 give force ard validity to
a motion, or resolution to instruct, which is
that it must be sanctioned by body represent

he was opppsedI would not impress him very

late convention consisted of "a members, but
when ba lot was taken for Senatorial delegate
only 60 votes were cast, Mr.. Johnston receiving
81 and Judge Potts 9. The other 81 delegates,
AL the regular nominations having already
been made. had left the Court room to make
preparations for going home. This leave-tah-
ing by delegates continued at intervals as 1t
has always done alter the importafr, nomina-
sion or talk about changing the present system
of nominating candidates was ended, the con-

THE following from the current issue of
the Holliday aysburg Standard meets our views
exactly;
Judge Hall, of Bedford, has filed his opinion
in the Greevy case. He asserts that the AL
toOna GtOIC article was entirely and Malicious
ly false, and that Mr.. Grcevy in writing il at
tempted to Stab Justice in her own sanctuary.
He holds that il is within the province of the
Court to strike Greevys name from the roll,
but in view of all the circu m stances, and pOssi-
bly, swith a wise forethought for the future,
magnanimOusly chose to temper justice with
mercy. We cannot see this matter through
Judge Halls spectacles. The burden of his
opinion is an arra9nment of the CeSSnas, and
we cannot for the life OF us why they were
not brought be fore the Court instead of Greevy.
If they guilty of the charge preferred
against them they should not be permitted to
escape. And we consider it dRstHrdy coward
ice to try them over the shoulders of a bird
party. Is anybody i'll Bedford afraid of the
CpsSnaS?
