Another horrible railroad accident

victim was Stephen Alfred, of San

nioned as a witness in the Shippers
water contest suit In the First Dis

Provo when lie met with an acct
dent that will probably cost him his
life, at Thistle station, on the Rio
Grand Western Railway. While
waiting for the arrival Of n passenger
train on which to continue his jour
ney TO Provo, he sauDiered leisurejy
up and down the track below
the depot, and failed to Tscog-
nize an approaching freight
train that came up from behind AMI
by which he was struck down aud
run over. How it was the unfortu-
nate man was not observed by the
engineer does not appear. The first
intimation of the casualty was de-

met ct the depot by Mr.. Alfred, his
cousin, who had been appraised Of
the accident, and Drs. Pike and

information, conspicuous among the
subjects treated being 1.-The Pion-

that will occasion no small regret
that this volume closes the publ

Brother Jensen, the compiler and

the jury in the Third District
Court on Tuesday. There and
then man was convicted
of perjury, who gave information
against q supposed illegal voter
having apparently every reason to
believe that he was doing q simple
duty. The voter has been adiudged
to have acquired legal residence
and that Is all there is of the
case, yet the man who stood up
in good faith TO vindicate the
law and maintain the purity
of the ballot box has been convicted
of perjury when it was evident that
his greatest offence was an error.
This packing Of jury boxes with
the political ond religious antagon-
lists Of parties defendant, and that
too when the jurors are bitter parti-
Fans is a mockery Of justice and a
disgrace to judicial procedure.
The laws governing this matter as
they now stand are giaringly de-
fective, but the practice and the
manner in which they are admin
istercd are infinitely worse. Unless
some change is made jury trials in
Utah may soon become a mixture
farce and deep tragedy.

THE LATE TRAGEDY IN NEW
MEXICO.

In the early part Of the present
month we published what pur-
ported to be an account of tragedy
enacted on the Zuni reservation,
nearthe border line between New
Mexico and Arizona. The bloody
affair took place on October 26;h, at
a late hour Of the night. The vic
tim was Joseph Lewis, aged 81. The
parties who committed the homi-
eide We're J. r. p. Pipkin and Jos.
w. Hatch.
We have received Mr.. Pipkin's
side of the story, but It Is so elabor.
ate and detailed, containing what
he AYERS to be conversations
between different persons, that it is
not ola nature to make il desirable
for publication In full. Its substance
Is that his wife had committed n
grave odense against him, but the
breach between them In consequence
was 5ridged for a time by his
extending forgiveness to her. Sub
sequently, however, she infiu-
encsd her parents and other rels-
lives, who lived some distance
gay, against him. Her mother,
brother and sister visited his house,
and during his temporary absence
they, together with his wife. loaded
up n wagon with his household
effects, and. taking two Of his cdii-
dren, were about to leave Tor the
home Of the Lewis family, into
which he had married. At the
time the shooting occurred he and
J. w. Hatch were tracking the
Lewises in order to locate them
tina. an officer might lie pro-
cured to serve process upon them
before they left that part of the
country, as he desired to recover
his goods. AS Pipisin and Hatch
approached the place where the
family were camped-the Zuui
Wash - Joseph Lewis fired
upon them. The shooting was
returned, resulting in the death Of
the unfortunate young man. An
other fusilsde occurred between the
two men who had been pursuing
the family and two others who were
them some distance from
the camp. The horse Of one of the
guards was killed and that of an
other wounded. In searching for
Joseph w. Hatch, three days after
wards, the sheriff shot and killed.

"OF VITAL IMPoRTANCN.-

'= WHEN we intimated, a few days
ago, that there was probability
that the defeated candidate for Dele
gate to Congress would try TO get
himself sent 10 Washington, any,
how, at the expense of "Liberalv
dupes foolish enough 10 put up the
money, the "Liberslo organ pro-
ceeded, with lis accustomed disre-
gard for truth and prudence, to
emphatically deny that there was
any such scheme sfloat. We took
our cue from remarks made in p,.b-
lie by the candidates supporters,
who declared they would send him
to the capital this winter, whether
he was elected or not.
Now it appears that notwith-
standing this denial, project is on
foot TO send some one TO Wash
ington at the expense OF persons
who are soft enough to sub
scribe, but whether that inui-
vidual is to be the defeated
candidate or not we think is
not yet determined. And lest he
or his chief bully should attempt to
repeat the denial already made, we
will mention. the fact, that a meeting
Of those who desired to spool their
issues" on this point, was called for
Wednesday last, at the Office of the
chairman of the "Liberal'' party.
The matter was declared to be s'of
vital Importance"
We understand the motive that
lies behind this movement. 1t will
be made to appear that the COM
mercial, mining aud other material
interests of the Territory are to be
the objects Of sending this s'repre-
sentative But the chief and real
purpose is political. And the i'm

second TO further the plot to rob the

and privileges. For an earnest OF
what may be expected, we need but
to point to the "work," and Play.
and results of last winter in this
direction.
By the by, would it not be a good
plan to semi o. w. Powers himseI
on this mission? He is working the
thing up, it appears, and with his

would have an astonishing influence
over Congressman OF one party,
