TRAITS OF THE RED MEN.
Curiosities of Character That Puzzle
the Pale Face Stranger.
(ROCky Mountain Ne

Few white men know how TO trade
with an Indian" remarked c. Z. Ward
of this city, who has made study of
Indians for ten years past 4 once
met an Indian with a magnificent
mountain lion skin. He was willing TO
part with the ornament, but his price
was too high. offered him $3.50, but
he Indignantly refused. Later. on the
same day. after had learned to trade
with an Indian. 1 bought the skin for
$1.5O."
The secret of trading with the In
dian, according to Mr. Ward, is to APP
pear indifferent The most successful
trader is the one who goes with a sup
ply of the same article he is most de-
sirous of buying. The Indian sees that
the stranger has had experience, and
negotiations are carried on upon a
strictly business basis. An Indian re-
fused $40 for bow and arroW. 1t was
bought for 81 by a man who carried
several bows and arrows in his hand.
This willy individual leased the supply
from a store in order to impress his
copper cOlored friends, and he sue
ceeded.
tine Indian" said Mr.. Ward, in
speaking of traits Of character he has
observed in his red friends. lis one of
the most faithful followers in the world
If he has confidence in you. If he takes
a liking to you, there is nothing you
can ask he Will not do. If he dislikes
you, the less you have to do with that
Indian the better.
The Indian is a very much abused
fellow, and ne has never been treated
as he deserved to be by the white man.
His vices are largely the fault Of his
white neighbOrs, and one of the great
est dangers that threaten the Indian
race is the travelling shows The gov
eminent reports declare that the In
dams who went to Europe with wild
west aggregations were a lasting men
ace to their people when they returned
home. They had contracted all the
vices and none of the virtues of the
white men.
THE nature of the Indian cannot be
! learned from books. It must be studied
by actual contact. So far as ] have
observed. all the Indians are Catho-
lies. They graft their own ideas on tC
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1902-11-06

that of the Roman Catholic religion,
and it is indeed a peculiar mixture.
You can't eradicate the Indian nature
by any education, and it is a mistake
to send Indians away to school. They
should be educated at home among
their own people, and their progress
ought to be gradual, otherwise the
whole race will soon disappear. Our
government has been in too great
hurry. Let the Indian develop along
lines congenial to his nature, ard
something may come out of all the ex-
pense and time devoted to the solution
Of the Indian problem. Ny idea is that
the Indian is all right, but his ways
are not our ways. Let US give him
chance and give him time to work out
his salvation. A Carlisle Indian gets
the swelled head, and one such Indian
may spoil an entire village He is over
educated, but in the end he is worse
off than at the beginning"
Mr.. Ward says his Investigations
show that 90 per cent of the Indians die
of tuberculosis. Whether the disease
was introduced by contact with the
whites he does not know. This is a sub
ject that is receiving the attention of
the authorities at Washington, and is
J regarded as one of the most important
subjects of investigation by those who
are interested in the suvival of the race
that once dominated the continent.
THE customs of the various tribes
/ is a never ceasing topic of interest, -
/ said Mr. Ward. After a white man
lives a while among the Indians he is
! gradually taken into their confidence
and shown many curious performances,
all of which have a meaning to the

stream. The women take their places

in good time for the ceremony
They spend the night, perhaps, in the
Russian hospice at Jericho, where they
simply huddle together like flock of
sheep. Before dawn the rooms are
empty and the whole crow2 has gath
cred on the bank, where Greek priests,
who viii presently drive a most lucra-
tive trade await them. The principal
articles sold are branches of trees FROM
various sacred spots, stones from the
Mountain of Temptation hard by
plants from the wilderness and rosaries
with olive stones for beads. To what
ever religious value is claimed for these
articles the Russian peasants implicit
ly give credence, and they willingly pay
their money to obtain them.
During the hours Immediately pre-
ceding the ceremony the motley crowd
is occupied in prayer and silent deVo-
ton. To many pilgrims this occasion
is one of the greatest life can bring,
namely, to be permitted not only to
visit the Jordan, but actually to battle

opens to let a procession OF, purple clad
ecclesiastics pass to the waters, then
the pilgrims close in again, and station
themselves along the banks, eager and

on the surface of the stream to bless
it, and no sooner does the sacred SYM

at his success, though expressing his
sorrow at the defeat of his fellow can
didates.
ut is hardly necessary for me to say
that 1 am much pleased at the SPLEEN
did support given me by the people of
this county" said he, but l want,
through The Herald, to thank my
friends for their efforts in my behalf.
The ladies OF the city, particularly,
I feel are to be credited with much
that resulted in my extraordinary vote.
They were opposed to one OF the other
candidates particularly, and this gave
me many votes which l might not have
received.
During my association with the
schools of the city as a member of the
board of education 1 have been 'fortu-
nate in finding many friends among
the teachers, and they gave me a very
generous part of their suffra ges.
Then. too. the laboring classes, par
ticularly the street car boys, the rail-
road men and miners were very kind
in their efforts in my behalf.
Il think I also received much sup
port from the business men of the city.
They probably felt that my interests
were in many cases identical with their
own, and that legislation affecting
them would be considered carefully on
account of its affecting me.
Il cannot speak too highly of the
work done in my behalf by my own
employees, each one of whom has done
just as much for me as he would for
himself All these things together re-
suited in my getting enough votes to
elect me, which is, as l said at first
very gratifying"

They lie perfectly still, the water NOV

the two lines Of men and women arose
to standing position and began flap
ping their blankets in the air. The
noise was almost deafening. The flap

stood with their toes in the water. They
were shaking the evil spirits into the
stream and causing them to be carried
down to the lake and drowned. The
ceremony is somewhat in the nature of

STORY TOLD BY
TUESDAYS VOTE
Mormon Democrats Seem to
Want Smoot For Senator.
STEPHENS is IN DOUBT
MAY PULL THROUGH, BUT IT'S
UNLIKELY.

NUT of the Republican deluge in
| Salt Lake county still looms ST.
mon Bamberger.
With nine districts to hear from, the
returns show that Mr.. Bamberger re-
ceived 1.S47 more votes than King. the
head of the Democratic ticket. He beat
his leading opponent, w. w. Williams,
by SIS votes, and was 2,4SO votes ahead
Of Jacob Moritz. Rulon Wells, his col
league on the ticket. ran 227 votes
ahead of King, and lacked only S05 of
beating out Williams. In the city he
was 204 votes ahead, but the country
districts overcame this, and more.
There is hope that Frank 3. Steph-
ems. on the Democratic ticket for the
lower house, may pull through Pres
ent returns give him a plurality of
about 100 over A. II. Nash, but there
are several Republican precincts to
hear from.
The returns show that many Re
publicans in the Fourth and Fifth pre-
cincts scratched the legislative ticket,
especially on senator. This was more
than counterbaIanced by the deser-
tions OF Democrats in the Third pre-
cinct and other parts of the city, and
in the country. The conclusion gen
orally drawn by those who analyzed
the returns yesterday was that many
Mormon Democrats voted the Repub-
Hcan legislative ticket TO help Apostle
Reed SmOot.
Thomas Morris. the labor candidate
on the Democratic ticket, ran ahead OF
the average OF the Democratic NOM
inees. while A. l.. Hamlin, the anti
labor Republican, ran behind.
The Fifth precinct is normally ke-
f.xre To
of scratching done by Republicans is
shown by the fact that Bamberger car
rfed it by 26S plurality over Williams,
while Wells was only 2S votes behind
the latter. Moritz was 216 votes IN the
rear. This is exclusive of the Forty
seventh district, the returns from
which are missing.
Present returns give Howell a plu-
rality in the county over King of l.O4O.
Major Young was nineteen votes ahead
OF MeCarty in the city, but the country
districts helped McCarty along, leav-
ing him 636 votes ahead. McCarty ran
better in the southern part of the state,
where he is better known
The Socialists polled S23 votes for
congressman. Wilson receiving 739
votes in the city and 1S4 in the county,
with nine districts out of the count.
The Socialists showed considerable
strength in the Second and Third pre-
cincts and in Bingham.
On the county ticket, Wilson beat
Horne by SAB votes. Anderson ran be-
hind Standish, although Standish was
opposite Whitaker, who ran ahead of
his ticket.
Ham NayIor made the best run. He
carried the city by sixty-four votes
but he lost the shrievalty to Emery on
the total by 1876 votes. Emery ran
ahead in his own precinct, the Third
and in the country. while NayloI
showed unusual popularity east OF
Main street.
Carbis beat Dale by 77s, while Meeks
came within seven votes of equalIine
this plurality in his race with Aston.

Rev. DR.. Parkin in his address before
the Ministerial Union at WiJherspOon hall
on Monday told two good stories. The
first was of a young minister in the coal
regions who had an impeachment in his
speech. He tried many remedies without
avail, till at last, after saving a gOOdly
portion of his salary by denying himself
the comforts of life, he came to Phila-
delphia to De cured. because he had heard
there were so many speakeasies' here
The other was a minister whose educa-
ton in business matters had been sadly
neglected. He had a small charge also,
and eked out a living by writing for the
papers. One day he received a check for
SIS, made payable to his order. He took
it to the local bank, and handing IL in,
was told TO indoTse il. He heSiTated a
moment, and then taking up the precious
document wrote on the back: Il heartily
