Wasatch County Officials Re-
quest Aid From Gov.
Cutler.

Persons Selling Liquor TO Indians Can
Not be Convicted as Rcdskins

County Clerk j. c. Jensen Of Wasatch

unable to secure sufficient evidence
against parties who sell whisky TO In.
dians on the Uintah reservation TO
convict them and their efforts thus
far have resulted In only one conyic-
ton which was that Of young man
whom the sheriff saws placed bottle of
whisky on Rn Indians saddle. The
fellow pleaded guilty and Is now sery
ing his time.
The officers of the county meet with
great difficulty In securing evidence, as
the Indians are unwilling witnesses
against the guilty parties The county
commissioners of that county are Of
the opinion that II is only possible to
reach the offenders OF the law in one
way and that is to enlist the services
OF two detectives for a sufficient length
OF time to secure the necessary evil
dence against the most fragrant vio-
lators of the law
This would mean an expense which
the county can not at this time meet
without aid from the state, but the
clerk says that the county will employ
the detectives If the state will see that
It is reimbursed for the expenditure
In that connection.
Coy. Cutler has replied to the COM
munication and instructed the clerk to
secure the services OF the necessary de-
tectiyes and he will recommend to the
next Legislature that Wasatch coun-
~ be reimbursed for the money ex-
pended In this matter. In connection
with the same affair Capt. Hall Of the
White Rock agency has written Gov.
Cutler that he will be in Washington
In q short time and will take the mat
