Show H C I A - - / £ - • Of course, I am doing this in most every part of the country as other federal judges do not take this stand. As to H. G. Clark, this man h_aB the reputation in the Uintah country, of being not only a bootle.gger, but a gambler besides. I am just in receipt of a letter from special Officer VvT. S. Lowe at Albuquerque, New Mexico, dated January 20, 1909, in which he rs as follows :- Yours of the loth instant at hand this A.M. The evidence of information referred to about H.G. Clark is this, that he ran a gambling tent in Myton for some time, and about tine 15th of Septembe r he opened a resort near or a.z the Lakes above Myten. On his opening .he bought and had shipped, 30 gallons cf whiskey and the same was sold by him at the lake above mentioned, and all thi time he ran this hell-hols in Myton he furnished whiskey to the players. This information was given me by George Mulvey of Myton, and he was to furnish the names of two witnesses who told him they bought whiskey from Clark at the Lake. His, Clark's, boy told Mulvey that his father had 30 gallons of whiskey and if he wanted any to come around and he could get all he wanted. '"Clark bears a very bad reputation in and about Myton. If he was appointed agent at White Rocks things would be in a very bad and dangerous condition. Respectfully it Chief Special Officlr^ |
