OF the general land office. But. like
most troubles arising in Salt Lake
City, the Mormon question is at the
bottom, and when Mormonism is in
Jected into a case Of this kind, and un-
fairly, there is little danger that Pres
1dent Roosevelt will extend comfort
to the disgruntled element.
For several weeks Mr.. Richards has
been sending out warnings to the pub
lie about the lands of the Uintah In
dian reservation. Promoters and per-
sons interested in booming the Uintah
lands have been painting glowing pic
lures of what is to be found there, but
representatives of the general land
office. who have been all over the res
ervation, report the land to be ordi-
nary sagebrush country, very little of
1t worth settling upon, hardly any of
it worth $1.25 an acre.
Accepting the opinion of these men
as correct, Mr.. Richards has warned
the public not to expect a garden spot
on the Uintah reservation If they go
in and make entries. Naturally, he
incurred the i'll will of the boomers,
and they set about to make trouble.
