We hear much that is complimentary OF
the secretary Of the Orleans County Fair
Association, as well as the other officers,
in regard to the mastery manner in which
the program of the fair was carried out,
and the ease and comfort with which the
crowds were cared for during the fair.
Everything seemed satisfactory to the
people who attended.
The drills and nsnuevers by the 10Th
U. s cavalry troop G on Thursday and
Friday were immensely pleasing and the
rough riding on Friday was applauded
again and again by the audience, Barton
little realized that the very choicest OF
Uncle Sans mounted troops were her
guests. Persons visiting their camp we're

Everyone is talking about the fine
work of the Barton ball team IN
the three games last week. When
it is considered that they ran against three
of the fastest teams to De found in this
vicinity the record beco mes more remark

The tourist that would undertake
to do this should spend Monday in

Tuesday should be spent at Mont

begins on that day and is continu-

ANOTHER UINTAH GRAFT,
RENTING LANDS TO SHEEPsIEN

Charles L. Bailey, an attache of the
secretary of states office, mas return
ed from the Uintah reservation with
the news that colony of Colorado
residents has been founded in Dry
Guleh on the reservation, says the
Denver Post, according to his state
ment. big graft is being worked by
an agent of the Florence Mining com
pany. who is said to be violating the
mandate of the Uniteu States gov
ernment in renting grazing land to
sheep owners having herds in ex-
cess to the number of sheep per
mitted on the lands by the govern
ment. c. $. Carter is the employee
of the Florence Mining company and
was on the allotting commission
which distributed the lands among
the Indians.
"The government has limited the
number of sheep to 10000. said Mr..
Bailey. Il was assured by reliable
parties that the number OF sheep be-
ing grazed on the lands leased by
Carter and then subleased by him
in excess Of 100000 and is nearer
roo 000. Carter is said to have been
working with Capt. Hail. who is 10
acting Indian agent. Carter is al
legged to have given Hall an auto
mobile as a sort of bribe. There are
twenty-five or thirty men who have
sheep on the reservation. One man
a Mr.. Austin. has 900 sheep in his
flock. They lease land from Carter.
There are not more than 1000
Indians on the reservation and allot-
tments We're made TO many Indians
who died years ago. This has been
"a common scandal for some time.
In connection with the allotment of
the lands to the Indians, occasion was
taken to ruin the town of Myton,
which is located in the center of
some of the best land on the reserva-
tion. The land in its vicinity was
given to the Indians. and no white
man will live near there. The Ind
ians have the privilege of leasing
their lands to white men and in a
short those who want to get possess
sion OF Myton will have the lands.
Capt, Halls alleged connection
with Carter has displeased many" !"
Speaking of the colony of Colo
RADIO citizens formed on the reserva-
tion. Mr.. Bailey said that the Nor
mons did all in their power to keep
Dry Gulch from them.
I'VE beat them to il" said Mr.
Bailey. "and they were a mighty sore
lot"
Dry Gulch is situated between the
Uintah and Duchesne rivers, and
water may be secured from either.

son. son-in-Iaw, wife's nephew and wifes sisters
husband, Charles NJ. Turner, president of the
Security Mutual, were ali the payroll Of this
company. Moreover, it was shown that by a
perpetual contract Mr.. Turner receives 90 cents
on every $1,000 OF insurance in force in this
company. no matter how large this should be.
Already the figure Of the insurance In full has
amounted to nearly $5OO0OOOO
Among the policies of the Mutual Reserve dis
clissed yesterday was one for $4,000, taken out
in 1881, for which 1920 had been paid In the
first year the holder paid $50 25. and last year
he paid $40; then he dropped it. avoiding sew
