NO WAR With UIES
INDIANS and FEDERAL OFF,
Gers Decide TO AGREE.
They Go to Fort Meade While Await
ing SettIement-chief Says "Roose.
welt Mighty Hunter" and Will Pro.
vide Hunting Grounds-Indian Blu.
reau Will Take Charge.

The Ute Indians and the govern
ment have come to terms. It has been
agreed that the Indian leaders shall
have a powwow with "the great white
father" and in the meantime the tribe
shall go to Fort Meade in charge of
Colonel Rodgers of the Sixth cavalry.
Rations are to be issued to them
there. The government was the result
of a IL hours conference. Several
times the Indians left the conference,
vowing they would not return. They
insisted they would not go back to
Utah and that they wanted new
bunting ground. Colonel Rodgers and
Captain Carter P. Johnson told them
President Roosevelt would take care
of them, and Chief Unkaskin put it to
the rest of the band in this way:
Roosevelt, he mighty hunter; he no
want his children starve; he know
1njuns like heap big game; he give us
good hunting grounds"
Unkaskin, Black Whisker and Red
Cap will represent the tribe in Wash
ington and urge the president to give
nem another place to hunt. 1t is not
the intention at present to disarm
the Indians. The trip to Fort Meade
will be made overland as soon as the
troops from Fort Keogh, with sup
plies for the Sixth cavalry, arrive at
the front. The settlement, although
only of a temporary nature, will, it is
confidently believed, end the trouble
as soon as minor details can be ar
ranged. After the arrival of the Utes
at Fore Meade the question of their re.
turn to Utah will be taken up and de.
termined by the Indian bureau.

Storm Of Protest CompeIs Withdrawal
Of Contract.
Rome.-Alarmed by the storm of
protest at the letting of contract to
the Midvale Steel company of Phila-
delphia for armor plate for the Italian
navy, the ministry of marine has de-
cided to cancel the agreement.
Besides the popular outcry, the min
istry was embarrassed by threats of
litigation by the Krupps, who accuse
the Midvale company of infringing
their patents.
The contract will probably be let to
the Italian Iron Works company at
TERM. The Italian concern, however,
is said to be in no position actually
to furnish the plates, which will prob
ably really come from the Krupps.

CREAMERY MUST
BE SUPPORTED
FARMERS CAN GET BETTER
PRICES THAN BY SHIPPING.
A. J. rIcGuire, Who Spoke Here Last
Week, Shows Why the Farmer
Should Support the Local Cream
cry rather than Put Himself az
Mercy of Cold Storage Creamer-
les

The large attendance at the Farmers
meeting March 18th was evidence that
there is still an interest in the home
creamery even tho it has not had the
most success in past years.
The dairy industry about Morris is
not sufficiently large to permit the
shipping of cream and the operating
of a home creamery at the same time.
One OR the other must suspend. The
creamery is now making al effort to
succeed and it is the farmers who shall
decide whether it will or not.
There are few things which it is
we'll to know and remember i'll regard
to these two competing systems. The
shipping of cream and the making of
butter in the local cooperative cream
cry. The part of this expense which
is borne by each patron depends en-
tirely upon the amount of butter
made. For example: If the running
expense of the creamery is 81 a day
and there are 400 pounds of butter
made each day, the expense to each
patron would be cent for each pound
of butter made from the cream he de-
vered. If only 200 pounds of butter
were made daily and the expense of
running the creamery was the same
S4, the expense to each patron would
be 2 cents per pound. Thus the inn
portance of running at full capacity,
as the expense to each patron is only
half as great as when run at half capa-
city.
Now there are two things which de
termine what price the farmer will

Regular CounciI rleeting Wednesday
Night-Rowland Submits His
Final Sewe~ and Sprinkl-

AT the council meeting Wednesday
night, Expert Accountant Andrew

Some of the interesting features of
the report were outlined in The

The council accepted the report
and commended Mr.. Rowland for his
excellent work on the books. Many
of the suggestions made by Mr.. Row
land have already been put into
effect.
The matter of determining what
portions of the sewer system should
be constructed this year was taken up,
and it was decided that this matter
should rest for the most part with
the property owners. It is TO be
taken for granted that the council
will order constructed the three north
and south sewers, that is the sewers
on Atlantic, Oregon and Pacific
avenues. The property owners on
others streets that desire to have
their district sewer laid should pre-
pare petitions and bring the matter
before the council.

BECKNELL'S PLATFORrl.
He Stands for What the People of
the District Want.

To the people of the 57th legislative
DISTRICT
Since my announcement as can
didate for representative, | have
several times been asked for my
views on some of the public questions
now before the people, and as this
naturally interests the public gener-
ally, I have concluded to publish a
brief statement of the same.
1t is impossible in this manner to do
more than indicate my position on
such questions, but expect at some
future time to more fully set forth
and to discuss my views on these
questions.
I am heartily in sympathy with the
stand taken by President Roosevelt
and the legal departments of the
national and state governments re-
lative to trusts. Trusts are unlawful
combinations, and those responsible
for the formation and continuance of
the same should be punished. Where
corporations have formed trusts, their
corporate privileges should be an
nulled.
believe our insurance laws can
and should be improved. Especially
in this true as regards life insurance
Life insurance companies, banks and
all other companies and institutions
receiving funds in trust should be
placed under supervision.
am in favor of such tax laws as
will distribute the burden of taxation
equitably. A large amount of pro
perty that should be taxed has beer
escaping taxation under our present
laws. The franchise of a corporation
is often very valuable asset and il
such cases should be taxed. Iapprove
of the four per cent gross earnings
tax law, and believe, if the valuation
of railway property now being ascer
tanned by the Railroad and Ware
1 house commission warrants it, thai
the gross earnings tax should be
further increased.
Since railway companies and al
other corporations came into exist
ence by virtue of it's laws enacted by
the people, the people should have
