The days of the notorious Duchesne

Utah, and one of the last stands he has
taken before his final determination,
may be numbered. Governor Wells
has decided to act, and If his course
should not prove sufficient. radical
measures are very likely to be taken
by Captain Gilfoyle, in charge OF Fort
Duchesne.
There was a conference Yesterday at
the governors office between the chiec
executive, Attorney General Bishop, In
dian inspector Graves and Indian Agent
Myton. AS a result, the governor Will
address a letter to the commissioners
of Uintah county, urging them to take
some action to rid the state OF this
haunt of the desperate.
The law on the subject was read by
the attorney general, and it was seen
that if disorderly places are being con-
Quoted on the strip" the county at

close them up. If saloons are being
conducted with gambling houses and
houses of ill-repute attached, the coun-

Andrew Salmon had shot and instantly
killed George Haas near what is known
as the Home Staten of the Rawlins *

The particulars OF the killing are very
meagre.
1t is known that bad blood existed
between the two Ihen and Haas was
confined for a short time in the county
Jail here on u charge sworn to by Sal
men. Since that time Haas has sworn
that he would kill Salmon on sight.
Haas has been herding sheep for the
last six months, but quit a few DAYS
and came to Lander. While here he
seemed to be demented and heard on
several occasions to say that he in
tended to clean out the Sweetwater
country and then leaye the country.
On last Thursday morning he left
town, going in the direction of the
Sweetwater, having a Winchester
strapped to his saddle. Salmon was
notified that he was coming that way
and to be on the lookout for him. Haas
reached Salmon's home late yesterday

CURED for Salmon. He was told that
Salmon was not at home, but was out
hunting horses.
Haas left the house and went in
search of Salmon. He came up to him
not far from the house and opened fire
on him. He fired two shots, before
Salmon was able to loosen his gun from
the saddle. By the time Salmon got his
gun they had both dismounted and ly-
ing down in the sagebrush began firing
at each other. Several shots were eX-
changed before either hit the other.
Salmon finally got a shot in on Haas
that struck him in the forehead and
killed him instantly.

South African War.

This government has maintained an
attitude Of neutrality in the unfortunate
contest between Great Britain and the
Boer states of Africa. We have re-
mained faithful to the precept Of avoid
ing entangling alliances as to affairs
not of our direct concern. Had circum-
stances suggested that the parties To
the quarrel would have welcomed any
kindly expression of the hope of the
American people that war might be
averted, good offices would have been
gladly rendered. The United States rep
resentative at Pretoria was early in
structed to see that all neutral Ameri-
can interests be respected by the COM
batants. This has been an easy task in
view of the positive declarations of both
British and Boer authorities that the
personal and property rights of our citi-
zens should be observed.
Upon the withdrawal of the British
agent from Pretoria the United States
consul was authorized, upon the request
of the British government and with the
assent of the South African and Orange
Free State governments, to exercise the
customary good offices of neutral for
the care of British interests. In the dis
charge of this function ! am happy IL
say that abundant opportunity has beer
afforded to show the impartiaity of this
government toward both the combat
ants.
