How WIN Rcd men Vote ,

CHAMBERLAIN, S. d., Nov 20.-Eow that
it is settled that the Indians are to be en-
franchised, the question naturally arises
what they will be-Democrats, Republicans,
Prohibitionists or Greenbackersl Those most
intimately acquainted with the Indian char
acter state that this question cannot be
answered at this time. The Indian will
develop into shrewd politician, and it will
take considerable wire pulling, backed by
liberal quantities Of beef and dog, 10 capture
his vote. One thing may be said with GER
tainty, that the Prohibit onists need not
count on securing "a single Indian vote.
