WHITES WE'RE TO BLAME.
Corrected Version of the Affair at
Vernal

Vernal.
Vernal, Feb. 5.-Lieutenant Horne,
quartermaster at Duchesne. was in
town today on business connected with
the wood contract at the post, and in
cidehtally to investigate the affair at
the Antler saloon, in which the three
Indians were mixed up.
There are rumors afiOat TO the effect
that the Indians were not the aggres-
sors. 1t has been whispered around
town today that the story told by the
whites Of the Indians attempting to
hold UP the place is a fake. The In
dams are said to have stated to Dep
uty United States Marshal Young that
they were gambling in the saloon, and
made a winning, which angered the
whites, who attempted to cheat them in
an effort to get even. Noting this they
were Immediately attacked. They claim
that they acted entirely on the defen-
sive. and tried to get away as quickly
as possible.
There is one thing that seems certain,
somebody is selling them liquor, and
it is sincerely to be hoped that the
guilty parties viii be located and Sc
verely dealt with. The wish is pretty
generally expressed that the local au-
sift the matter to the bottom.
There is one thing that always mill
tates against correcting his evil. and
that is the attitude Of the Indians
themselves; they invariable shut up
like a clam and will simply say moth
ing. no matter what occurs. Unlike
their white brother. they seldom give
anyone away.
The principal mission of Lieutenant
Horne today in Vernal, it was learned,
was to take some action concerning the
wood contract. Contractor McKeach-
ME has failed to comply with the terms
of the contract, so it is stated, and to-
day the contract was turned over to the
bOndsmen, who win make an effort to
accomplish what McKeachnie failed in.
The b9ndsmen are George Hislop and
Lars SOrensen. They are trying to Sc
cure men and teams today, and are Of
fering the full contract price for the
wood.

Something of a Tangle Over the Ap-

pointive ohcss.
The situation as regards city ap-
rcintments is apparently more compli-
Gated than ever since the meeting of
the council Monday night, and there is
! general uncertainty as 20 who are the
city's officers. As was told yesterday,
the council passed the ordinances Great
ing and organizing the police and fire
departments. The mayor signed them
during the interval of Is minutes be-
tween the two sessions OF the council,
and then sent in the list of nomipa-
lions TO fill the positions thus created.
These nominations were laid on the
table, and the council adjourned.
However, some of these officers had
h6en appointed and confirmed the
mayor ard the council acting on the
theory that the police department and
fire department were still in existence.
Thus some of these appointees have a
double claim to Office.
There is vet another contention that
there IS 10 provision for a police de-
partment. and can be none until an
other legislature meets, and on this
theory il is urged that only those who
were in Office Dec. 81 can be in office
now. As a good many of those who
have been twice appointed to Office We're
re-aDDointments, there are then some
there are claims and side issues galore
and Individual contentious that COM
plicate the matter in numerous other
ways. Captain Silvey. for instance,
holds office simply on the grounds that
he was in last year, and his successor
has not yet been confirmed. Jailer
Baxter claims that the mayor exceeded
his authority when he appointed a man
for his place, as the council alone has
that power.
OF all the claimants, eX-Chief of the
Fire Department Binford seems to have
the least number of chances. He has
not possession, nor has he been ap-
pointed this year.
The trouble between the council
members and the mayor Monday night,
which resulted in all the nominations
being tabled, seems to have arisen be-
cause of the name of Robert Shaw be-
ing LEFT off. and that of II. L. Gaut
put on.
Mayor Boyle says that the principal
officers were agreed upon in caucus.
but he did not understand that this
prohibited him from naming a patrol
man of his own choice. He thought
he had done his duty in the matter
and that if any legal complications
arise the council will be responsible for
them. Councilman Ash seemed to
understand things about as the mayor
did Councilman Brewer says he voted
against tabling the appointments, but
did so under a misunderstanding
