were unshaken by the attempt on his
life. He drove to the Holy Synod and

Peculiar Situation Arises ii Conneetloa
With Water Rights,
fait Lake City, July 20. A peculiar
situation has arisen in connection with
the water rights on the Uintah Indian
Reservstion, soon to be thrown open to
settlement under the lottery plan. There
i no land on sfca reservation suitable
for cultivation except Under irrigation.
While no person can file a claim to the
land prior to the . drawing, and while
"sooner" are strictly barred from the
reservation it seems to be unoe,rtuin
whether the law embraces the water
rights. In behalf of the lndiuos who
will retain the most valuable agricul
tural lands on the reservation Captain
C. G. Hall, United States Army, has
made twenty filings on water rights
which are said to cover practically the
water supply of .the reservation Three
