FERGUSON RESIGNS.
A Commissioner Who Held Court Outside

commissioner Who Held Court Outside
of His Jurisdiction.
United States Commissioners Thomas
Ferguson was cited to appear before the
justices OF the supreme court at the
chambers yesterday morning in relation
to his acting as United States commits
sioner in this county, when he was ap-
pointed as such for Piute county. 1t is
also limited in this connection that some
of Mr.. Ferguson's brother dignataries of
the smaller courts had petitioned the SUI
preme court to remove him, as he was en-
croaching somewhat upon their business
Mr.. Ferguson was appointed some time
ago upon. petition signed by large
number of persons residing at
Marysvale, as we'll as others in
Salt Lake, as United States
Commissioner for Piute county where
he resided at that time. About Two
months ago he returned to Salt Lake and
opened his docket for the transaction of
business and this act was presumably not
looked upon kindly by others in the same
business here, hence the kick. Upon
hearing how the matter stood yesterday,
Mr.. Ferguson very promptly rendered
his resignation which was accepted. 1t
is only Just to state that the gentleman
bears a good reputation and not the
slightest shadow has ever been cast upon
his official integrity.
