arshal dyer was vaa interviewing ti the I 1 rera id mr evans was vim Inte interviewing W 1 g ll 11 an man on the same bamo ddn identical tie 1 I sit subject abject rho iho object of 0 mr evans visit at the office was to ascertain who hiroto the article appeared in dinoui our issue of tile int n ami headed hoail cil A juch and nd whether tile tha writer had lit in ins ills mind at the time mr david daid lans the person inter declined to say who wrote tile the article or v sho ho the writer had in his mind for his big subject mr evans volunteered ered in explanation ot of the talk lie hs had hadfield hadlie I 1 le III ld with two of 0 the dep deputies u ties who assisted in in the lehi raid the 8 tate ment that they tho th deputies had ome come to provo for or the purpose of making C certain from him relative ro latiB to a lehi resident who was waa charged with an offense other kotlier t than that of unlawful cohabitation an and for a year vear past fast could not ba found Thode the deputies mr ivans stated came from salt lake expressly to learn earn I 1 hom om him certain witt with tile the case of this lehl lehi offender and not to obtain information relative to the 1 alleged 1 1 1 11 9 ed violators of the edmunds law 1 aho vho 1 1 1 0 weri wire some home hours afterwards after warda ai rested mr air evans seemed to have formed the that ho he V wat as the judas referred to in in our article notwithstanding tha tact fact that thero there were three or four other gentlemen who ocon conversed versed with the deputies chili they ivere in arid nd each cach one of whom could per fips as reasonably infer that wo meant him na as mr evans avans could infer that we means mean him it is is a singular circum circumstance that though there we were four 0 or five gentlemen who talked that day with with tile deputies ties and though one had as reason n and certainly no more us as another to think that lie he was meant as a the judas mr evans E vans should be the only ono ona ot of the number who should as that ho be was waa the person referred to ile ho is however ho never at perfect liberty to assume what lie pleases we wrote kni knowingly n I 1 1 and advisedly when we wa asserted afi eliut a at a judas in provo betrayed certain people in in lehi between the 3rd ard and ath inath now then for marshal deerb defence ol of mr evans made to a herald reporter th clr has assumed that we meant mr evans but probably lie he would not have given tho the mat matter any consideration whatever it if mr erana had not cot written to him and solicited his friendly offices however after reading marshal earshil dyers statement in in the herald and recollecting what viliam mr evans evana himself told us its we are amazed at the glaring an contradiction between the parties wo ag have not said that mr mi evans evana was the traitor but he here we find marshal I 1 dyer I 1 Y 11 r telling ono no atory alory and mr evans t i er hiie the story told us has also b been en told by mr evans to others As la Is seen seenie he asserts the dep deputy illy mar marsalli mariliall marili balli als camb expressly to talk wi with th hina him cona con corning curning an oi offender fender of lehi lebi and yet marshal dyer states that the deputies to on street and talked to him hist iii casualty that their visit to provo brov had not the remotest connection onne cUon with the lehi iem people but that they were looking attar after a man who hail had stolen a ring from a lady at pi PV V junction who had riven givert the case to mr franks and mr evans was ft as merely asked il if the man was in provo here is a flat contradiction to the c explanation X made not only to u us but to others other by mr evans it if lie he in is innocent miti cent of 0 giving the lehi people away why resort to such a subterfuge astvat as that shown in marshal dyers defence of mr evans now the hh bin not asaei tad ted that amri evans did give those nino nine reputable citizens citi sens of loin lehi away and the gentleman could not by any ma manlier lr fl I 1 1 iw W or logic be convicted on any that this journal may havo a 0 thrown out as aa to the identity of 0 the traitor but here bete we find the ilia marshal doing that very thing which ho and mr byam elaria charge us u with domi doing to bo sure t tho he marshal has no intention of injuring mr evans he rather arther seeks reeks to clear the gentleman of any possible imputation il tation of guilt that was ft aa his hia object F in assiduously hunting up aI a herald lerald reporter 1 ter lie he would have gone after n R tribune ir ilund reporter in preference no doubt but b by doing so BO he was shrewd enough to un understand ferst arid that that would only damage ill his clients cause mr r alvans vana is la a good enough lawyer lanyer to know that it wo it 0 really meant him when n hen we stated that it was ivaa a judas who betrayed betra those thone lehi people we have now P pretty retty good circumstantial evidence in the fact act that he himself says bays one thing and his solicited apologist bays another ther the richest part of it is is however t that hat the two deputies I 1 ranks franks ind and ca cannon a non confirmed the details lied olied by the Mars lial so BO says saya the I lerald 11 wo e hid had no intention of re referring ferrin t to 0 this Judi tall bu business again anty until we readill read arshal dyers ayera defonce def Idel onre of mr evans in the herald ald 11 the defense made by the marshal was so much at variance with mr evans Ivan ivanson sOB own statement that ne ft e could not avoid placing both before the public wo we cannot for the life of us ua sue see if mr evans evana deems it lleces aary try to defend himself and needs needa tile the of tile marshal and hill bill deputies to make that defence complete and conclusive why all parties cannot tell the samo atory all around it is i only hir fair for or us to state
