UTES GIVING TROUBLE.
They Have Driven White Settlers
From Their Lands.

SALT LAKE. Nov. Ex-Governor West
received letters to-day from the Sheriff
and other officials of San Juan County,
Utah. asking for assistance in driving out
500 Ute Indians. These Indians have come
over from the Los Pinos agency in Colo
RADIO, bringing with them 10000 sheep and
1000 cattle. They state that they were
sent by Indian Agent Day, who told them
that they had a right to occupy these
lands. They have driven the settlers from
the grazing lands and announce that they
will fight ra her than return to Colorado.
About 800 Navajo Indians have also left
their reservation in this Territory and
seem to have formed an alliance with the
Utes. There are not sufficient white set
tiers in the county to cope with the IN
dams. They are in a beligerent mood
and the settlers are greatly alarmed.
Governor West Immediately notified the
Secretary of the Interior. and asked that
troops be sent to drive the Indians back
to Colorado

and the wisdom to see the causes of these

AT the conclusion of Governor Princes
remarks and the hearty applause follow
ing the congress took its usual evening
recess.
lmme diately upon reassembllng the dis
cusslon Cpon the reconciliation of silver
was resumed, Colonel George E. Leigh
ton of Salt Lake being introduced to pre-
sent the views of the conservatives upon
the silver question Beginning with few
generalties upon the tendency 10 prescribe
legislative DOstrums for the cure OF Ills OIL
the body polite. he came down to the
subject in hand, first declaring his Dellei
that existing depression was primarily Que
to the pushing of production to extreme
limits without due regard OF the facility Oh
distribution and capacity to consume.
He belonged, he said, to those VINO De-
lieve that the free coinage of silver at 10
to would be a certain aggraVatlon OF
existing ills and deprecated the use OF artl-
fetal props to advance the interests OF any
thing. The ratio of 16 to l the speaker
declared fetch, and in support Oh this
quoted the various ratios within the DIS
tory of the world. The whole question
was one of commercial utility, ana upon
that utility, coupled with the supply, was
fixed the ratio between the money metals.
Sill silver will always have and always
should have large place in the financial
system.
Scarcely had Colonel Leighton con-
eluded than the audience evidenced that
it had been waiting for the next speaker.
Congressman Bryan, who was received
with an outburst of applause which was
not stilled for some moments. After ex-
pressing his inability to cover the subject
in the brief time allotted him, Congress
man Bryan proceeded to quote James q.
Blaine. Secretary Carlisle and others
equally prominent. as declaring that the
decentralization Of silver was a crime
against the people in that it destroyed
from three eighths to one-half of the ex-
listing medium of exchange and ap-
preciated the balance to the benefit
OF him who has fixed income
of money. The man who preached
gold standard turned back to The history
OF 5000 years, Coming to the question of
banks of issue, he denounced them as I'M
safe and unreliable from the very innate
selfshness of man. Mr.. Bryan said the
low rate of interest indicated an abund-
ance of money, for the reason that the
people were. from the existing depression,
not able to borrow and pay interest. That
was what kept money in banks willing to
accept almost any rate of interest. There
were three PROPOSITIONS to be met: the
question of ratio, the limited or unlimited
coinage of silver, the coming of silver
alone or with the aid of foreign nations.
To all these propositions he had but this
answer, 16 to 1, unlimited coinage and by
the United States without the aid of any
nation on earth.

"Republican" is not advocating
the candidacy Of Mr.. Elkins. It
is merely coming to his defense
as it would go to the defense Of
Mr.. Sturgis. Mr.. Hubbard Mr.
Hutchinson or any other deserv-
ing Republican who might be
similarly criticised. II is true
that Mr.. Elkins declined tobe a
candidate on some stated occa

applicants for these places who
we're delighted to have him step
aside that they might reap the
reward they claimed was theirs
for past party service. Mr.. Elk

that it was Steve" Elkins that

not be true, but it is certain that
Democrats are doing all they can
to defeat Mr.. Elkins. Mr.. Elk.

one of the ablest Of our presidents

The fact that he came to West

sensible thing to do apd our
State finding such favor with
him that he decided to remain
