Esoluest IoF HIS tArsskhSt''"-
Attorney General Miller caught
tartar the other day when he tackled
Elliott SANFORD. Chief Justice OF the
Supreme Court OF Utah, whom the Ad-
ministration has recently removed.
To letter from Miller requesting his
resignation, SANFORD replied asking
II there were any charges against him
and stating that it would be unbecom-
ing and improper for him to resign
until they were proved or disproved.
This brought reply from Mixer in
which he said: 1.-The President has be-
come satisfied that your administers
ton OF the Office was not in harmony
" it'll the policy he deemed proper to
be pursued with reference TO Utah
affairs. and for this reason he desired
to make change. and out Of courtesy
gave you an opportunity to resign
The judges answer was TO the point.
He wrote as follows: I'm reply ! have
the honor to say that my earnest pur-
pose while on the bench as Chief
Justice Of the Territory has been to
administer justice and the laws hon.
estly and impartially TO all men, under
the obligations OF my oath OF Office
| If the President OF the United States
has any policy which he desires a
Judge OF the Supreme Court to carry
out in reference TO Utah affairs. other
than the one have pursued. you may
say to him that lie has done very well
to remove me-"
Whether this message Is conveyed
to Harrison or not is not stated. but u
will probably warn Miller against en-
tering into any particulars hereafter
regarding the cause Of removals.
