Report says that Ed Akin travelled incog
with Dubois and Hibbs from Walla Walla
to Pendleton, when after Frush had served
the writ of habins corpus upon Dubois, he
showed himself. If all was honorable why
this secrecy? Dubois had shown no dispo-
s,tion to avoid any writ issued by compe-
tant Judge Had he desired to do SO he
could have avoided Frush.
The newspapers which have mentioned
the result Of Hibbs trial at Lewiston have
nearly all misstated the tact, and upon these
misstateuents public sentiment has been
engendered that Hibhs is innocent and is
being prosecuted by the U. s. officials. We
are of the opinion that Uucle Sam will be
able to dispel all this misunderstanding be,
fore he is through with Hibbs.
