Carl Lomen who returned from
the reindeer fair, which lie. says
was some fair by the way, also
tells of an interesting development
for which Walter Shields is respons
ible. This is the election ol' five
chiefs of the Eskimo nation who
will be its supreme court of arbi
tration in all matters of dispute
coming before the individuals of
the same village or between the
different villages on Seward Penin
sula. These will he the witan
agemote of the natives and upon
them will devolve the pacification
and arbitration of all ructions
among the1 aboriginal families. The
idea is the adaptation of an ancient
one to the modernized native anel
should meet with success. The
roadhouse at Shelton was crowded
with white visitors to the fair anel
some had io use sleeping bags ow
ing to tlie accomodation being strict
ly limited. They all enjoyed the trip
and the fair immensely and it was
on the whole a delightful as well
as interesting experience.
Do you remember the “Cabaret”
of last fall, well they «lo say that
one on Saturday will be better.
