Not Believed Here.

Adjutant General +. a. Wedgwood
said last night that the Utah National
Guard would most certainly go into
camp at Fort y. A. Russell despite the
reports from Denver. The guard is
preparing to go on August ? and the
reports OF water famine are not taken
seriously enough in salt Lake to have a
deterrent effect.
It has been known for some time that
the Colorado National Guard had hest
tated about going to the encampnent
owing to q lack Of funds. and the re-
ports from Fort Russell are regarded rs
an excuse for the guardsmen to stay
at home at less expense
Utah guardsmen do not take seri-
ously the report that the Fifteenth in
fantry will be turned back. No such in
formation has been received ct Fort
Douglas.
