tiers Loudly Complain.

Washington, Oct. IL. = Secretary
Hitchcock said today that as soon as
the renegade Uintah Ute Indians, who
are now in Wyoming. reach the Grow
Indian reservation, the department of
the interior will see that they return
to their reservation in Utah, even If
troops have TO accompany them.
This statement was elected by a tel
egram received by him from the John
Morton Sheep company, dated at Gill
lette, Wyo., reporting that the Indians
are fifteen miles from that town and
robbing sheep camps and killing cattle
and game. 1t was also said that the
people were becoming aroused. Imme-
date action to secure the removal OF
the Indians was urged.
The secretary replied that the matter
would have immediate attention. In
discussing the matter, he said that so
long as the Indians are not on a reser-
walton it becomes the duty of the state
authorities to deal with them, but that
as soon as they reach the reservation,
from which they are distant only two
days march, the department will take
the matter in hand and compel the In
dams to return to their homes. He is
convinced that the Indians are head
ing for the Crow territory

AIRING TO

Idaho Republicans in Many
Parts of the State Working
Against the Governor.
Especial to The Herald,)

Blackfoot. Ida, Oct. 12.-Carl Valen-
tine, a prominent Republican and well
known sheepman, is in Blackfoot today.
Mr. Valentine has been over nearly
every portion of the southern and west
ern parts of the state, and is in a po-
sition to Judge political conditions. AL
though a staunch Republican, Mr.. VAL
entine believes Governor Gooding will
be badly showed under in the NOvem-
Der election. He says that everywhere
he finds prominent Republicans desert
ing the governor and going over 10
Stockslager. The feeling against Good
ing is SO intense that he will not be
able to carry either his home town or
county In the so-called Mormon coun-
ties the governor will run better, but
his majorities even in those counties
will be nothing near what 1t was two
years ago. In many places, Mr.. Valen-
tine declares, leading Republicans are
openly working against the governor.
