NOTORIOUS HUNTER DENIES GUILT.

The notorious Ed Hunter has entered
denial and says that he Glid not bride
any juror or induce any one else to
try to pribe. A committee OF five Des
Moines lawyers selected by the four
district judges of Polk county to inves-
tigate Hunters giratiops. along with
Hunter did MAKE attempts to bride a
juror and that there was sufficient evil
denee on which to secure an indict-
ment. The evidence may not prove
sufficient to convince the grand jury,
altho this would not ailaY public sus
picion.
Practices are alleged tn be prevalent
in Des Moines that have led up to
these efforts OH the part I>f four Judges
and the respectable lawyers of the cap
I.al city to convict Hunter. 1t is COM
planned by members of the bar that
Hunter has secret arrangement with
a weli-known corporation lawyer in
that city whereby the lawyer practices

ting in return Hunters expert intiu-
ence with Jurors in securing favorable
verdicts. 1t has even been charged pri-
vately that liigants have been solic-
tied for business by Hunter or his
emissa ries WHO advise that this law
yer and business friend of Hunters be
retained because he has way OF get
ling verMcts.' Naturally suspicious of
this kind called for an Investigation.
Whether Hunter Is indicted finally
by the grand jury or not will not
matter materially. The fact remains
that four district judges appointed a
yers they could select and these law
yers reported that they believed Hun
ter guilty. To the publ, mind this will
be taken as conviction, as the jury was
certainly q competent one. Hunter has
been notorious as lobbyist around the
Iowa legislature for years. AS a politi
cal manage, he has ITO equal In the
west. Whether 1t be fiji. the democratic
party or republican party that he is

some Investigations as to the age when
conversion is most likely to occur. and
