"INDIAN AND
BALLOTS MISSING."
Reno, Nev. - Tom Bigfoot, an Indian
runner to whom the election ballots and returns of the Wonder Mining
District were given, has disappeared and a crowd of deputy sheriffs
are scouring the county sixty miles east of Reno for him.
Upon the
returns depend the fate of the candidates for judge in the Second
district and the fate of several Churchill county candidates.
It
is believed that the Indian was intercepted and robbed of the returns
and that he has fled to the hills for fear of prosecution for their
non delivery.
Wonder is sixty miles from Fallon, the county seat.
The Indian promised to make the run through the hills in eight hours.
