CHEYENNE. Wyo., Oct. 17-Gover-
nor Brooks today telegraphed the In
terror Department asking for Federal
troops to aid in preserving order and
to arrange to remove band of Ute
Indians now in the vicinity of Gillette,
Wyo. The Indians are Utes, who were
recently allotted lands In severalty in
Utah, which in effect made them clti-
zens outside the jurisdiction of the In
dian Department.
The Indians became dissatisfied with
their lands, and started overland across
Wyoming, 10 the annoyance or ranch
men. and complaint was made to the
Interior Department. Inspector Nc
Laughin was sent, and after parleying
induced about fifty of the band to re-
turn to Utah. The remainder refused
to- go back, and epcamped near Gill
lette. Within the past few days the
Indians, who have been drinking liquor,
de6ed local authorities, and more serious
complaint has come from ranchmen and
farmers. 1t is expected that troops
will be sent from Fort Robinson, Ne
braska, to round up the Indians, about

WE1SER, Idaho, Oct. 17.-Another
day has passed, making the eighth,
since the County Attorney was in.
structed to have Robert Lansdon, Re-
publican candidate for Secretary of
state, appear before the Board of Com
mlssloners to answer TO charges of a
serious nature connected with his Office
while Assessor, and he is not here yet.
County Attorney Rhea and Republl-
can County Central Committee Chair
man Utter returned this morning from
Bolse, where they went to interview
Chief Brady as to what should be done
regarding Gooding's pet candidate.
1t is rumored that the State Central
Committee has ordered Mr. Lansdon
home that he might ''explain'' the
serious error that he has made in his
books. There are a number of others
that may be called upon to explain.
BY his action in refusing to issue
warrant for Lansdon s arrest, County
Attorney Rhea has caused many Re-
publicans TO refuse to vote for his son,
who is q candidate to succeed him. In
stead of helping the Republican ticket
by delaying matters, as calculated on
by the leaders, it has had the opposite
effect and many leading Republicans
have openly expressed their opinion Of
the action of the leaders.

Special to The Tribune.
BOISE, Ida, Oct. 17.-Judge j. A.
McGinty, one of the leading Republi.
cans Of Boise, handed the Republican
Mormon machine Il body blow ycster
day. A few nights ago Senator Du-
bois stated in a speech in North Idaho
that Judge McGinty, among other
prominent Republicans of Ada county
was not supporting the Gooding Borah-
Mormon combine. Yesterday Borah,
who is also in the North, wired Chair
man Brady to have Judge McGinty sign
telegram denying Dubois statement
and declaring for the election of the
Republican ticket.
Brady was up to his ears TRYING TO
smother the scandal caused by the
charges of embezzlement nnd falsifica-
ton of public records made against
Robert Lansdon. the machine nominee
for Secretary of State. So he turned
Borah S request over TO G. G.. Cavanah,
Borah g chief lieutenant In this county,
Cavanah drew up q telegram DENYING
Dubois statement, and took it TO
Judge McGinty with request that tho
latter sign it,
Judge McGinty refused with vigorous
promptness to sign it OF anything like
it. He informed Mr.. Cavanah with
great emphasis that he would not give
Borah any chance to call in question
the word of one of the most honorcd
members of the United States Senate
and one of the most respected citizens
of Idaho. Mr., Cavanah departed in a
dazed condition.
Judge McGinty is simply ono of a
large number of prominent Ada coun.
ty Republicans who openly rcpudiate

ance made at the Pocatello conven-

LONG BEACH TRUSTEES
MAKE A DISCOVERY
CITY OWNS VALUABLE WATER
FRONTAGE
This Fact Develops During Junket to
West Long Beach in Company
With officials of the Salt Lake
Road
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, July 31-When the
city trustees went to West Long Beach
this morning with General Manager
Wells, Superintendent Cullen and En-
gineers Tilton and Jessup Of the Salt
Lake railroad, they made the impor-
tant discovery that the city owns IT'S
feet of water frontage on the bay be-
tween the California Fish company's s
property and the Salt Lake depot.
The Salt Lake is said to be desirous
of buying a franchise which will give
them the right to run tracks along this
ground to the cannery. The company
is willing, If a franchise can be OBJ
tained, to put in a public landing.
The city trustees, however realize
the value of this frontage and say they
will retain absolute control of it. They
say they are willing that the Salt Lake
shall build a public landing and main
tain it and will rent the company the
right of way for their track.
The trustees made the discovery that
they had been looking the wrong way
at the map of Terminal island and
that the cross streets run to the ocean.
but not to the inner bay as they had
supposed.
The streets are closed by Salt Lake
property which has been leased to a
lumber company. The Salt Lake Off
cials are willing to give ten-foot
walk to the bay, but the trustees desire
a full-width street, Third street pre-
ferred. This the railroad officials OBJ
ject to.
Little was actually accomplished by
the junket. save that the trustees have
an accurate knowledge of their hold
ingS and rights in West Long Beach.
