Mr. Editor i
Flense allow me space in your
columns to make a brief reply to
the article in the issue of your
paper of October 10th, written
bv Col. H. W. Nalle.v, of this
place, under the lion de plume
“Capitol.” %
It is with extreme regret that
1 am forced into the public prints
to defend my oflicial conduct, and
I assure you I would not do it,
but for the reason that I fear
some might lose sight of this fact,
that the man who conceals his
identity behind a non de plume
to assail your character is as
much an assassin as the mail who
conceals himself and shoots you
from ambush, and his statements
are worthy of no more credit and
give his insinuations no more
credence than under the circum
stances than they are entitled to.
The facts of the case about
which this assassin of character
has so brutally and cowardly an-
sailedme, briefly stated, are sim
ply these: There was a warrant
sworp out for two vouug men
who happened to be engaged in
railroad work at the time charg
ing them with robbery and plac
ed in the hands of Mr. Sinyard,
one of my deputies, to execute
(the prosecutor being his neigh
hors.) Armed with this warrant
he and Mr. Trentham, a consta
ble of the county^ came to ihy

house and asked me to go with
them to make the arrest and it
not being convenient for me to
accompany them just at that
time, and I knowing the fore
man of the camp, Mr. Adams, to
be a gentleman worthy of the
fullest confidence in every re
spect, told them to tell him (Mr.
Adams) what they wanted and
he would give them any assis
tance that they might desire,
and that they would have no
trouble in making the arrest.
Afterwards I had occasion to
go out to the camp myself on
other business and finding, on
tny arrival, the deputy and bail
iff were still there a short consul
tation was held among ns and a
date fixed fora committing trial
before the magistrate, of Dallas
district, the alleged crime being
committed—if committed at all-
in said district, and the justice
of that district being more con
venient, and accessable, a good
and solvent, bond was taken for
their appearance at said com
mitting court at the town of Da!
las, as before stated, it not be
ing known that the adjourned
term of the superior court just
passed would be Iheld; but said
superior court being convened
before the date fixed for said
preliminary trial, I turned the
bond and warrant over to - the
solicitor general in order that he
might prefer a bill of indict,
ment, or take such other actions
in the matter m .he might see
proper. This in a nut shell is
what, I did. ,
To have done less I would have
been derelect in my duty, to
have done more, 1 being pecu-
niarially interested in all convic
tions, would have savored too
strongly of the hungry and dis
reputable lawyer in quest of
fees, and whatever else 1 may
be charged with, I beg that I be
spared to humiliation of bi-ing
charged with persecuting any
one under collar of my office for
personal gain. This I have never
done, I never expect to do it,
and if I thought the duties of
my office required it, God being
my judge, I would resign before
tomorrow night,. 1 will not use
my office just simply as a mill to
grind out toll for the officers of
court and fees for lawyers. Some
shysters may demand this,in fact,
are demanding it, but they had
as well understand once for all
that they are not going to get
the grist.
I am ready to help in the fu
ture—as l have ever been in the
past—in a healthy afid honost en
forcement of the law, but at this
I draw the line. I never have
nor do I ever expect to lend my
aid in adding to the burdens of
honest—but a tax ridden people
—the expense of trying cases got
ten up and conducted with an
eye single to grinding out cost
for myself and fees for disrepu-
tablee lawyers.
To show you the utter disre
gard of my assailant for the truth
of his statement I have only to
call your attention to one of his
assertions in his assault on me,
ana then to a single section of
our penal code. In his letter he
states that neither a magistrate
or the sheriff have the right to
assess a bond in any felony case.
Section No. MS of the
read* an follow*: “Capitol of
fence* are bailable only bafora
judge* of tho superior conrt and
i* in every case a matter of sound
discretion.-, AH other case* are
bailable by the committing
court.”
Now, for a man who pretends
to be a lawyer to make such a
statement, deinoast,rates one s of
two thinucs, viz: He wilfully mis
states the truth or is woefully
ignorant.
Now, Mr. Editor, in conclusion
I desire to sav, I have discharg
ed every trust confided to me
since my election to the vCry
best of my ability, and no one of
hi* intelligence know* this bet
ter than this prevaricator of the
truth. I have shown who this
foul mouthed slanderer is, I have
shown his utter disregard for the
truth. I now propose to wash
my hands of this entire contro
versy, feeling assurad with his
identity exposed, he can say or
do nothing that will injure me
in the estimation of the people.
