UTES BACK TO RESERVATION
BeIIIcose Indians Are to he Returned
to where They Came
Fam.

Arrangements have been practically COM
pleted by the War and Indian departments
10 send the runaway Ute Indians back to
their reservation in Utah. This is the bunch
OF Indians that made the sensational tramp
across the country from their reservation
into Wyoming and the Powder river coun-
try a year or more ago.
The party, several hundred in number,
was headed off on Powder river by the
Tenth and Sixth United States cavalry and
were taken to Fort Meade and kept on the
military reservation there for the remain
der of the winter and then moved up to
the Cheyenne river agency Of the Chey-
ennes at Thunder Buttes, S. d. Here they
threatened to break away on a raiding ex-
petition because of the lack OF supplies
and for the further reason that they were
required 20 send their papooses to school
at the Indian school at the Cheyenne
agency. some eighty or more miles east Of
Thunder Buttes.
The Second United States calvary was
sent to the agency and Thunder Buttes 20
hold the Indians in check. Matters were
finally compromised and the children were
sent to school and a large number of the
Indian men were given employment at rail-
road work At Rapid city The greater
portion OF the troops were sent back to
Fort Des Moines. One company remained
at Thunder Buttes TO watch the remainder
OF the Indians left there in camp. A par
OF this company will escort the indiana
back 10 their reservation in Utah mex
week. Tho trip will be made by marching
and will occupy two or three weeks.

LAW AND JUSTICE DISAGREE
At Least County Board So Decides and
Holds Up Election Fees.
OFFICERS GET NO PAY AS YET
Commissioners Come Dangerously
Near Passing the Roll, but one
Patriot Turns IN switch
in Time. .

Because there is a conflict between the
law and what they consider justice the
county commissioners Saturday failed TO
pass the pay roll for clerks and judges at
tho special election held last month.
Through an oversight the law governing
special elections In cities OF the metropoli-
tan class was not amended at the same
time the law governing regular elections
was changed. Hence the law provides the
members OF boards at regular elections shall
receive Sc and at special elections only g..
when the board started to pass the pay
roll allowing each member In Omaha $3.50
and in South Omaha g, the county's share.
Bruning voted no and Trainor moved to
omit the Omaha portion of the roll and take
It up later. The motion carried, Kennard
voting no. An effort will be made to rec
oncile the law and what the commissioner
consider the job to be worth.
Jurors claims were also allowed. the
board rejecting the allowance for satur-
days when the Jurors do not report for
duty. There has been a controversy over
whether the Jurors should be paid for every
day in the term for which they are drawn
or only the days upon which they serve.
With the understanding a friendly suit
would be instituted to decide the question
the hoard rejected the claims for Saturday.
Work at Detention Home.
Commissioner Bruning of the Detention
home committee has asked permission to
employ three men and a team to clear up
the new Detention school grounds at Fourth
and Bancroft streets. He also asked to
be allowed to secure bids for architects
plans for the proposed hospital ward, boiler
room, wash room and girls, quarters, the
whole to cost not more than 5000.
A. c. Hart and a number Of other mem
bers of the Federated Improvement Clubs
addressed the board asking the road rum
ming north along the east side OF Krug
park be paved to Ames avenue from the in
heritance tax fund. They argued that as
most Of the money in the fund Is paid from
Omaha estates the money should be spent
near the city.
W. Farnam Smith, agent OF the property
across Harvey street from the court house,
submitted a proposition to the board for a
temporary jail. He offered to erect a
building costing i 5000 provided the county
would pay an annual rental Of $500 a year

county would lease 1t for five years at
