er giveg 1t - his opinion that the Ute out
break is due solely to the attempt OF the
agent to compel the savages to conform to
the csistoms Of the whites. No Ute OF
spirit could be expected to act otherwise
than as savage. The great trouble has
heretofore arisen from the belief OF ama-

savage instincts can be cUaxcd Into agricul-
ture and kindred pttrshits. the wild red
