A Successful Expedition.

A Successful Expedition.
Game Commissioner johnson and his
force didn't capture any Indians. but
this was as expected by the people Of
this county. The Utes had due notice
Of Mr.. Johnson's approach and all the
redskins were safely over the border
and on the reservation long before the
commissioners force reached the Utah
line.
However. the expedition was not bar
rem Of results. Quite . number Of Utah
people-Mormons, they arc generally
called-were caught and made 70 pay
dearly for violating the Colorado game
laws. ~
A party Of four was caught north Of
Three Springs on the eastern end OF
Blue mountain, and another party Of
two men was caught on Yellow creek.
All had deer In their possession, and all
were taken before Justice Ehaakland. Of
Angors, and fined according 70 Law.
The largest hsul. however. was made
near Cottonwood. close 70 the Utah liDs.
Under sheriff Hornbek, WardsnS ~.
Fem and Blades ~ tr.ck " y
near Boxelder, and the poachers got
wind OF the wardens about the same
time. A hot chase ehsued, the wafdens
overtakipg the outfit within four miIes
of the Utah line. There were three In
the party, named George Bennett, Jos.
Marshall and George Reynolds. They
had twenty-nine deer in their posses
sion. and we're brought to Meeker and
tried before Justice Now. Each was
fined $40 and costs. amounting to $l58.
Thirty-one deer carcases were bro't
to town, q few Of which were sold to
some OF our townspeople. md the bal
ance shipped to Denver. where they
will be sold and the proceeds turned
into the game fund. The money thus
obtained, together with the fines col
lected, will more than pay the cost Of
the late expedition in quest of the Utes.
The arrests were made in Chief War
den Jays district, 80 Mr.. Jay was the
complaining witness in each case.

Game Commissioner johnson Is deter
mined that both Utes and Mormona
shall BE- kept out Of Colorado, so he has
detailed force under Chief Warden
Jay to watch the border line during the
remainder Of tho winter. For years
past the Utah whites have been a. bad
q the Utsh reds. but the Colorado au.
thorites are determined to put stop to
their depredstions. and the actions Of
the game commissioner during the past
two weeks will probably convince these
poachers that Colorado means business.
