Red Men Use Ballot in Bennett County Organi.

An election just held for the pur-
pose of organizing the new county Of
Bennett, which formerly was a part of
the Pine Ridge Indian reservation, was
in some respects one of the most novel
ever held in the vest Many of the
Sioux Indians residing In the county
were entitled to a vote, and took sd.
vantage of this, it being the first time
they had ever exercised the right of
franchise.
Under the coaching of the whites
who we're stationed at the voting pre-.
cincts they got along very we'll, only
three or four defective ballots being
cast in the entire county. The sight
Of the Sioux warriors with a ballot in
their hands preliminary to voting was
an interesting one, and one which will
not readily be forgotten by the whites
who were witnesses. In their early
manhood many Of the older Indians
were accustomed to WELD the scalping
knife, which now has been discarded
for the ballot. Many of the older
warriors, after being handed their bal
lots, looked somewhat shamefaced and
puzzled, but under the advice of their
white coachers managed to acquit
themselves very we'll In their first effort
to cast ballot.
Some of the more ambitious Indians
were candidates for county offices, and
some of them who were the more pop
ular among their brethren and the
white voters had the satisfaction of
winning out One of them, Edward G:
Bettleyoun, won the office of county

THINKS HOUSE WILL ELECT
Gen. Dawson Not Optimistic
Over Wilson's Chances.
by Gable to The Tribune. !

London, Oct. 19.-General Theodore
Southampton for New York wednes-
day on the Majestic, remarked before
sailing that the first thought in the
mind Of every one as soon as thew
heard Of the shooting Of Colonel Roose-
welt seemed TO be that the attack
meant Roosevelt's election.
More than a score Of men speaking
to him had said: This means the
Bull Moose will win"
General Dawson, however, disagreed
with this opinion and while deeply re-
GREETING the occurrence, thought that
no wave of sentiment could influence
the election, as the issues were too
vital in Importance for the people to
be carried away by an irrelevant hap
pening Of this sort.
General Dawson, who says he is a
radical Democrat, is not greatly optl-
mistic over Governor Wilson's chances
Of election. He said that while indica-
lions pointed TO Wilson's election he
would not be surprised if the election
went TO the House Of Representatives,
as IT was certain that neither Colonel
Roosevelt nor President Taft would
get majority of the Electoral College.
Wilson might, but it is not certain, and
if not, the election. of course. would go
to the House of Representatives.

eminent, for all its confident talk,
will venture to jam Home Rule
through the House for a second time
without an appeal TO the country,
while it is certain that the Unionist
leaders will endeavor by means Of
these same arguments OF a rapidly
weakening government to persuade the
King to exercise his prerogative and
dissolve Parliament.
1t seems more than likely, therefore,
that Mr.. Lloyd George may have to
wait long time before he can revive
his land propaganda with a govern
ment majority behind him.

PREHISTORIC PAINTING"
THE 0AUB OF A SAILOR
Discovery" of Scientists in
Wales Found To Be Smear
ing of Johnny Bales Brush.
by Cable to The Tribune. ]

London, Oct. ia few weeks ago
two learned French scientists. prowl-
ing In the darkened recesses of a cave
known as BacOn's Hole, on the lower
coast Of Wales. discovered on the
walls what was described as the most
ancient painting in Great Britain.
Some arch@ologians with ponderous
seriousness declared that it belonged
to the Aurignacian period and others
that 1t was evidence of the artistic
tendencies Of the paleozoic age.
The whole archaeological world hut-
tered with excitement, but some UNI
kind and unfeeling correspondent Of an
obscure Welsh paper had the temerity
this week to publish the true story Of
the mystic picture, and another great
discovery has fizzled out like a damp
fireCracker.
1t would appear that this relic Of
prehistoric days is exactly eighteen
years old and was the work of a Num-
bles boatman named Johnny Bale, who
was of a party Of salvors Of the Nor
wegian bark Anthem, wrecked near
Bacon's Hole. In wreckage washed
ashore was brush used on the ves-
sci for laying on reddish paint.
Bale found the brush, and, deeming
it too good to be wasted, proceeded in
side the cave with the intention OF rub
bling out the paint. Johnny apparently
performed the task thoroughly, and the
wall of the cave was well marked with
red paint before he departed with his
new found possession, which afterward
was used in the prosaic occupation of
yacht painting.
To lend further color to the explana-
ton Of the mystery. Bale was a man
feet ! inches tall, and the painting
on the upper part of the cave Is prac
tically in line with the position in
which his arm would have been held.
On the lower portion of the hole UNI
der horizontal lines, are spots looking
like droppings from a brush. That
these and the other marks are of COM
paratively recent date is shown by the
fact that the surface of the paint is
said to be easily susceptible Of re-
moval
Mr.. Pickwick's opinion on the con-
troversy so far has not been asCer-
tanned, but the whole scientific world
here is now thoroughly enjoying the
Joke.

PARIS BOURSE RECEIVERS
The Forthcoming Italian Loan
Alarms Berlin and Vienna.
[By Cable to The Tribune. !

Paris, Oct. 19.-The Bourse has re-
covered from its recent Balkan cyclone.
and the markets are fairly steady, in
spite OF the profit taking sales Of oper-
ators who had purchased during the
slump. Spectators are going slow and
large banking houses are very eau
tious.
A keen interest is taken in the an
nouncement Of the forthcoming Italian
government loan of S120OO0,OOO, TO be
fioated in Paris. The issue is to be
made by the Rothschilds. This tnan-
cial Irritation between the two Latin
Mediterranean nations is not viewed
with favor In Berlin and Vienna, where
IL is regarded as a forecast OF greater
political friendship between Rome and
Paris and as a possible factor OF dis
integration in the Triple Alliance.
Considerable purchases OF United
States railroad and industrial securi-
ties, especially coppers, for Paris In
vestment accounts are noted.

NICARAGUAN HORRORS

Eyewitness of Bombardment Of

Yet Known Here.
From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, oct. l9.-Judge Otto Schoen-
Claims Commission. arrived in Washing
ton to-day and talked over the conditions
In Nicaragua with officials OF the Depart
ment OF State.
Not a hundredth part OF the truth OF
the happenings IN Nicaragua during the
recent revolution" said Judge Schoenrich,
has become known to the American peo-
pie. Brief cable reports cannot depict
the horrors of a revolution. The suffer-
ngs OF the people Of Granada, the starva-
tlon In Masaya before the arrival Of the
American Red Cross supplies, the wanton
murder Of non-combatants and the spolia-
ton Of the food resources OF that poor
country are not yet known TO you here.
when these facts are fully made
known in the United States. as In time
they must be, there will follow a shock
to our national sense OF justice and fair
play that will at least place the Mica
aqua question before the American people
as an important Issue demanding thor
ough consideration.
THE people OF Nicaragua are still hop
ing, as they hoped all last year, that
some action would be taken by the United
States to help them out az their suffering
and want. The recent revolution may
yet prove Of some benefit to Nicaragua II
1t serves the purpose of exciting interest
In the United States In the welfare OF
that republic.
