For some years the Indians residing
upon the reservation in Lennox, Madison
county, have been in the habit ofvoLing
ut each election, the Inspectors never re-
fusing to receive their ballots, though
they have been regularly challenged.
Last fall it was decided TO test the ques.
ton in the courts, and two red men, an
swering to the names Of Abraham Elm
and Louis Dootater, were indicted. Their
trialhas just occurred, and the Judge de-
cided that an Indian residing on reser.
walton and in charge OF an agent Is an
alien, and therefore has no right 10 vote.
Asthe offending ex.aborigincs were re-
spectable members OF society, the judge
refused to pass sentence upon them, on
the ground that it was test case, to de.
eide a point that has been in dispute; but
future offenders will be made to suffer.
