Np~ ping very evident that Judge

,- Jn Powers directed that the Grand
l l..S he shown in, and when the fifteen
nun Dn1!isitors were arrayed before him,
iV G S1, of the Grand Jtlry.-My at
,ou ua has been called to paragraph
- . nnbic paper, which, it seems to me,
mates direct charge of corruption
0gsipst certain United States officials iii
tS;s Territory. 1t is alleged in sub
st a,r that a ring has been formed
, srong the Federal officers ard an agree
T msUt entered into by which they will
noo the money obtained in the prose
51tion of offenders under what is known
Sc the "Edmunds law" Perhaps had
ls,ter read the paragraph referred to.
The Judge then read the above para
rsph from the Ogden Herald. Resum-
ng, he said:
spch charges are well calculated to
,bake the confidence of the community
in the integrity and honor of its OIL
Gals. If the charge is true, those ell
aged in such business should be re-
moved from the Office and punished.
n the charge is untrue the Federal
officers in this Territory should no
longer rest under such a cruel imputa-
ion. therefore direct you to
make a searching investigation into
the charge. l desire you to
20 to the bottom of the whole matter
and il there is any substance to it, bring
i to the light. We cannot afford to
allow such charges to pass unnoticed:
"Apablic Office is a public trust" And
be who accepts such trust should be
above suspicion.
Il may be that the paragraph was
prspared by the writer, without full
sDpreciation of the serious charge it
mtains. There is considerable inter
Emanifested in this Territory at the
Essent time. and the editors and re-
wfters of the newspapers may not be
pcareful as they should. | trust that
The charge has no foundation in fact,
Int | instruct you to give a thorough
Elimination and not cease your lnvestl-
ntons until you are confident that no
hrther light can be obtained.
The Grand Jury then returned to
heir room, and not long afterwards
Charles W. Hemenway, Editor of the
H.rah, was served with notice to ap-
pear before them; with what result, of
course, can not as yet be learned.
The endeavors of the Nelrs OF this city
70 spprovingly pat Judge Powers on the
back, have not as yet seemed very pal
atable to his honor According to that
paper, which is a somewhat in
agnihcant one, the Judge committed
himself as follows:
The Court then announced that true
bills had also been found against Jas.
Taylor, Moroni Brown. and Francis A.
Brown for illegal cohabitation and
landed the papers to the clerk. The
Court said to the Grand Jury: Cen
temen, you have done well. You viii
how retire to your room and continue
your good work"
Judge Powers, after the Grand Jury
eft the court room, said plainly that he
would state for the benefit
d the public that he had
aid nothing of the kind alleged above,
tad he did not wish to have it inferred
nat he was more pleased with any one
Conviction than another, or that he was
aere to make crusade on the people.
Almen before the Court, said he, are
ohldered innocent until they are
FOTen guilty, and he wished to be so
Understood.
With this little set back for the NescS,
ae Judge resumed the order of the day.
General Kimball'S honors as foreman
