Montezuma Journal:-The people OF
Blum City. Utah. are having troubls
with n band of heavily armed Pi Ute
Indians, that have been committing
all sorts of depredations for some time
past Last week they encountered
several COW boys mp in the Elk noun
tain and the boys being outnumbered
and not well enough armed to suit the
occasion. concluded that the wisest
course for them TO pursue was to get
into Blun as soon as possible and
warn the people as the Indians made
threats that they were going In and
capture the store, belonging to the
San Juan Coop Co. and IL the white
man got It he would have to fight.
They also stated that they were In
search of John Redd whom they ac-
cnsed of stealing n horse from them.
Mr.. Redd had taken the horse in ques-
lion. but II was one ont of his herd
that the Indians had stolen some time
ago. Tho trouble created quite n lit.
tie uneasiness among the people of
Blum, MS the greater number OF the cit
lzens were in Monticello at the time
attending Conference held by the Nor
mon church, They were notified at
once of the impending trouble and
hastened home to protect their homes
and property. Nothing has been heard
from there for the last few days, and
the trouble is supposed to have been
amlcably settled, as they were to have
notified the nearby settlement for help
In case of attack, Something should
eb done with this marauding band of
Indians; If not, 1t will only be n gues-
tion of time until they cause more SER
ious trouble.
