brigham young had conducted the census without him claimed several irregularities and consequently withheld funds reserved for the census 11 the controversy contributed to harris decision to join other runaway officials of 1851 and abandon his post in utah territory relationships with the federal government continued to sour and eventually resulted in the utah war local government officials feared having an enslaved population might impede the territory s quest for statehood since certain members of congress were concerned about expansion of slavery into the western territories 12 the 1850 census slave schedule for utah territory reported only 26 slaves with a note that all of them were heading to california and did not include any enslaved people remaining in the territory 13 john
