Pidgin English speaker of Westerns (5)

I believe the answer is:

tonto

(Other definitions for tonto that I've seen before include "Western companion" , "Faithful companion" , "The Lone Ranger's sidekick" , "The Lone Ranger's companion" , "Lone Ranger and - -" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
