to give you some Official information
relative to the trafic in ammunition
which is carried on by the Mormon CO.
operation stores with the Indians"
The letter goes on to state that such
trafac IL undoubted and extensive; that
these stores are directly on the Indian
border; that the Mormon priesthood
have missionaries among them; that
many converts are made, who are taken
through the endowment house." when
the Indians pledge themselves to sup

cd Indians are called by the Mormons
.'our battle axes" and the letter asserts
"thst every Indian war is carried on
directly and indirectly by this priest
hood. and that this accounts for this
trafdo In ammunition" The object OF
the Mormons is to prevent the Gentilss
from settling within 500 miles Of Salt
Lake City. hoping that in the course OF
time and the growth OF their sect the
lands may all be occupied by their own
people. To the Mormons the letter
attributes the unity OF action shown In
recent years whenever an uprising was
made. "Ths so-eallsd friendly Indians
are always carrying information and
ammunition to the hostiles." The letter
closes by advising the Secretary to put
stop to this traffic. No doubt Is ~.

Mormons have been engaged in this
business. but perhaps to NO greater e.
