Editor Dumociiat Your statement of yesterday's Demociiat that you de fer expression of opinion without fur ther study if tho Hayes caso is highly commendable, nnd I would not ventuto to address you if I had not given the mattor serious thought. I carefully read, and nartlv re-road tho five pages in lust Sunday's Trlbuno. nnd some comments In that and other papers, and I cannot agree with some ot tho conclusions that seem to have been formed. I cannot find as much as ouo fuel in nil the Qvo pages that is nol un it rely consistent with the guilt of Ilnycs. when viewed In the lluht of tho J general opinion of thoso who heard j tho evidence ut tho trial to the effect that Hayes wns probably not nlouo in the deadly acts. I nm at n loss to fully understand why tho article wns published just tho day before the board of pardons was expected to act upon tho case, unless It was designed to Influence public opin ion, and possibly the board in his favor. Thero Is n peculiarity about this np pllcitlou furpnrdon that demands care ful consideration. So far as I can learn no Juror who sat on tho case Inn been inked to Inquire Into tho f ids supposed to have been newly discovered, but on tho contrary this vordlec has been harshly criticised, whereus wo in this county, who have walchnil tho case, know that the Jury was composed of some of the fairest, soundest, just nion wit have in the county, and when their verdict was returned it was universally approved except that those who dislike capital punish moot felt sorry that there wns not a rccomeudatlon for imprison ment for life. 'J he application It seems Includes un affidavit to the effect that John A. Brown, ex-shenll, offered $300 to one Peterson to testify against Hayes; what was that forV It does not affect Hayes' guilt. Why seek to besmirch the character of a gentleman whom wo all know was a jusi, although enurgetlo officer, nnd would scorn to think for a moment of seeking to con yiot u mun by anything but fair moans and by evidence that Is strictly true. The fact that such an affidavit is pre sented so taints tho application that it ought to bo carefully scrutinized In nil lti parts. Why is the fact made protulnont that there were only a very few exceptions taken nt the trial? Is it intended to be understood that Hayes' counsel did not properly dufend him. That will not do hi re with those who attended tho trial. He was ably defended, nnd had so fair a trial thai his attorney did not Uud It uecessary to tuko many exceptions. It may seem all right to Salt Lako papers to clnmor for the put don of Hayes; In charity wo will excuse them ou tho theory that "distance lends en chantment to their views;" but the p ople of Utah county have sonio rights which oven Suit Lako uewspapers may some day respect. There aro two sides to this mattor. You uro tight, Mr. Editor, to "study the case," and If you see as 1 do that it may be truo that "Wright" is guilty, it does not follow that Hayes Is Inno cent. In fact I cannot see how any one who hoard tho trial can have nny doubt as yet, at least, of his guilt. It la time lo call a halt of thoso who do not know tho facts adduced at the trial. And it is duo the State uud this county that the Bido of the public bo beard, nnd when the board of pardons act that they be fully advised of all the facts, and if Hayes is innocent lot blm go free, but not because ho bus got up a one-sided statement und awakens a sentiment in those who know nothing about tho real facts in tho case. Spectator. Ex-Sheriff Brown Objects. In regard to certain affidavits In tho Hr.ycs case, ex-Sheriff Brown of Utah county publishes the following state ment In today's Trjbune: Editor Tribunes lu tho Jssuo of your daily paper of Sunday last, lu -cornice-ilnu with the hMoryo. trie Hayes c.ibe, us herein eat forth, you publl-u what. purported to bo the substnnco of tho affidavit of one L. O. Peterson.ln which my narno was Mentioned, nnd in which I was represented us offering him tho sum of WOO to testify against said Hayes at the trial. In justice, to my self, and for tho informal ion of the public, whoso opinion was evidently sought to be Influenced hy tho state mint, I dtiio to siy, and do now say, that tho affidavit as published, in every essential particular is absolutely fnloo and groundless. In this connection I also dclro to stale that that portion of the affidavit of ono J. T. Williams, wherein It is represented in substance that I ob tnlnod tho history of George II. Wright from a caso containing hooks, sold un der execution, is also false nnd untrue., I nm unwilling that either tho public or tho Statu hoard of pinions should bo Imposed upon by filso affidavits or 8tatoments made concerning myself. If requested hy tho Statu board of pnr dons, or any person Interested, I hiu willing ai any time io make affidavit to tho facts above set forth. Respectfully yours, John A. Mnowx, Ex-Sheriff Utuli County. Pnovo, Utah, April 21, 1800. In conversation with Tun Demo chat mun J. T. Williams, now deputy sheriff of Utnh county, today reiter ates his usscrilnns in tho affidavit pub lished in the Tribuuo Inst Sunday. I DROWNED IN HOBBLE CHEEK. Sad Fttto or Bernard Bartlctt oi Springvillc. A sad accident occulted here this afternoon, by which Bernard Bartlutti aged 10. lost his life iti tho seething waters of Hobblo creolc. Tho facts Is shrouded in mystery, but tho facts are kuowu are as follows: Young Bartlett and his small brother about 5 yo.irs of ape, had boon down nl the creek, near their homo In tho First ward, and hud returned to tho house. Tho older boy was last seen alive about j 3 o'clock, and it is supposed that ho Im mediately returned to the creek after leaving his brother. Ho was next seen, a corpse floating In tho stream, by Dcvero Child about an hour later. The lnttor inn for assistance, and got Alf Wright, who pulled the body out or tho water nearly a tnllo below the place where he evidently fel) in. Burtlelt's face was badly bruised, nnd it was evident that Rome klcd of a struggle hud taken place. The theory IS that tho boy. who was an epileptic, hud taken a lit and fallen ou his face on tho rocks at tho bottom of tho creek. On a previous occasion the young mun had fallen in tho creek In a Qt, but had escaped Injury. The lad's rather Is working in Tintlc, but was telephoned for and will bo homo tomorrow. No Inquest wns hold. For a time it was feared that tho smaller lad had shared his brother's fate, having been, in tho excitement, overlooked ut home. Tho oldest son of this uthictud family died of typhoid fever lust year. Sprlngvltle cone pondenco Herald, April 20. Hotel Arrivals.
