That Ephraim Matter.

EDITOR DEMOCRAT: In your issue OF
March 4th appears an article headed
Religion and Rum" in which the
writer would make it appear that the
assistant postmaster and the postmaster's
son are one and the same person. He
says; "a few days ago the postmaster
and his son got into pugilistic encoun-
ter" etc: and further on, that 1--WE will
back this couple against any postmaster
and his assistant in Sanpete county,
L will here say that the gentleman (?)
who wrote that article must have been
very wrongfully informed, or else he is a
willful liar. He knows that am not the
postmaster's son, and that 1 am not a
Mormon. 1 have had neither pugilistic
nor any other unpleasant encounter with
the postmaster. He claims that the
usual fighting ground is in front of the
postoffice. 1t is strange that if this pugil-
lstic encounter, in which bystanders had
to interfere, took place, that did not see
1t: 1t is also strange that the proprietor
OF OF those reserved seats" did not see it.
Inc tact OF the matter is that no such en-
counter ever took place in front of the
office. IT T.nSoM ~ '"e

THE wALKER.ROGERs VERDICT.
Furniture Given to the Defendants
and the Piano to be Played
by the Plaintiff.

The jury in the Walker-Rogers case
went ont of court Yesterday afternoon be-
fore o'clock, and it was the general i'm
preston that almost an immediate ver-
dict would be reached. Quite different
condition OF things, however, resulted,
and no agreement was arrived at until
after o'clock last night. At the outset
there were several jurors who insisted OH
judgment for the defendant to the extent of
giving Mrs. Rogers and Miss Sara Walker
full title to and legal possession of the
piano and furniture in dispute, but four
hours of constant argument and balloting
effected compromise, and when a YER
dict was finally handed in to the court
this morning, it read that the piano
should be declared the property of the
plaintiff while the furniture in the opin-
ion of the jury rightfully belonged to the
ladies named.
Judge Zane, in announcing the verdict,
remarked that the jury's decision was
peculiar one, and it would have to be de-
cided by the lawyers whether it was ap-
plicable to the case, inasmuch as the suit
had been brought to establish title to the
whole property. 1t is understood that
Messrs. Hoge and Arthur Brown, Mr..
Walkers attorneys, will file the necessary
papers to have the verdict admissible,
and that the case will end there.
