Lake city. Colonel Van Horn has been
warned that the troops will be attacked en-
route. He is preparing for, and expects an
tack there is certain to be a sanguinary
battle. The rustlers, who number
10000, and all well armed, insist that
HesSe. Ford and Elliott, the imprisoned
cattlemen, be delivered to them. If they
get the prisoners they will certainly be
hanged. Colonel Van Horn hesitates to re-
move the prisoners fearing the troops will
be overpowered. The leader of the rustlers
is M. A. Reider, q young Methodist
preacher, who possesses the absolute conf
dence of his followers.

has telegraphed to the sheriff OF

Representative English, of tho House In

within the last week have received at
least numbered letters protesting against
their removal. Cardinal Gibbons was one
of the protestants, and other clergymen Of
equal prominence were also among the
number. don't see," he continued, why
any objection should be made to the propo-
sltion. The Utes want to go over to Utah,
and good many of them are already there.
The influences in Utah will be beneficial to
them, and as we propose reimbursing the
white settlers in southeastern Utah, /
don't see why any objections should be
made by them. The number of these
white settlers is very few, 1 mean
the bona fide settlers, who were there prior
TO the ratification of the treaty in 1883.
The bill as amended provides that all legal
residents who had secured homes there
prior to that year shall be given a fair com
pensation for whatever losses may be sus-
tanned by them, but no others. This COM
peusstion will be paid out of the Ute lands
In Colorado, and this ought TO prevent any
not penny Of which is borne by the
federal government, while we have not dis
regarded the rights OF the whites. We
have certainly been most liberal with the
Utes. Such Of the number as wish to re
main on their present reservation and take
up lands in severalty may do 81
without losing any part Of theil
share in the general fund accruing from
the sale of their Colorado land. The re-
port on the bill is row being written by
