HOIK NATIVES
NOT ON WAR PATH
A cablegram received from Geo.
Goshaw stales that there is no
truth in the report spread by
Cooper and wife, school teachers
at Tyonok, to the effect that the
natives were seeking their lives.
It was simply a case of the teach
ers becoming frightened at their
own shadows.
A few of the native families in
that neighborhood are destitute
and were given temporary relief
by Mr. Schalben, of the board of
education, who accompanied Mr.
Goshaw on his long trip. They
both expect to reach Seward to
night on their return trip.

“Everyone thought I was a fak

me a knowing look and passed on.
A friend insisted one could sell
anything in London and this
started a controversy. Finally 1
bet him I could not sell six 5
pound notes at a penny each in i
20 minutes. I won in a walk."

AFOGNAK USES
NEARINGTHE END
Tin* election fraud cases may
not be completed today, as was
expected. The defense have sev
eral witnesses to place on the
stand which will require all the
balance of the afternoon and may
require part of an evening ses
sion and the summing up will
take live hpurs. There are sev
eral indictments against each of
the defendants and they may be
tried on other counts if the gov
ernment is not successful in se
curing a conviction in this.
Pajomen, the storekeeper at
Afognak, has confessed and his
confession , read to the jury late
yesterday, stated that Falstadt
had placed VVickersham ballots
in the box and that he and Fred
olin had entered the names of the
register, although the voters were
not, present.
Falstadt today denied , any
wrong doing, claiming that the
voters were all present. Fredo
1 in also denied any wrong.
The first jury disagreed and was
discharged by Judge Lyons after
being o.nt for 48 hours. The vote
was eight for acquittal and four
for conviction.
INDIAN WOMNIAN
DISPLAYS SENSE
Washington, 1>. C„ l-'eb. 8.
The Indian woman as a suffragist
may be represented in the suf
fragist parade here March 3.
Mrs. Marie L. Baldwin, a Chippe
wa, connected with the Indian bu
reau. has been asked to arrange
for some sort, of float which
would portray the Indian woman
as in favor of the voting rights.
“I have not. yet decided,” Mrs.
Baldwin said, “whether I will obey
the request of the parade arrang
ers or not. As for the Indian wo
men, they have virtual suffrage,
also the power of recall since
time immemorial. Whenever they
were dissatisfied with a chief of a
tribe, all they had to do was to
make their wishes known and he
was promptly recalled. And as
to voting. I do not know that they
exercised the right often, but it
amounted to the same thing, for
they would inform their men what
they wanted and the result of the
election usually showed that their
wishes had prevailed."
