at Salem, known among the initi-
ated as Great Incohonee, will here
after have a permanent wigwam at
Salem. A strong tribe of forty-two
charter members has been organized
out of the best young men of the
city. 1t is purely fraternal and
benevolent order, existing since
years all over our country,
THE ORGANIZERS ARRIVED
in the forenoon and at once went to
The Willamette for lunch. They
were met at the morning train from
Portland by Hon. Il. G. Baker and
Geo. e. Goode with a carriage. The
delegation consisted of f.. j. Ladd,
the Portland restaurateur aud poul-
try breeder, with three attendant
warriors.
THE PROGRAM.
They came up to assist the breth-
ern here in arranging the hall, etc.,
for the work of instituting the
Salem tribe tonight. On the first
evening train the remainder of the
team will arrive. The Salem band,
as previously announced will call
the charter members together this
evening at o'clock, who will all
proceed to the train and escort the
visitors to the hall. Instead of TAX
ing all night to confer the degrees,
which has been the understanding,
not later than IL o'clock will be
uece ssary, All members are ex-
pected 10 assemble at the State In
suraDce corner when the band be-
gins to play.
THE REGALIA
Of this order is very elaborate, II
one may judge from the amount of
paraphernalia which the Portland
Sachems bring along. One part OF
the initiation consists of administer
ing a dose of chitem bark by the
chief medicine man, after which a
lunch will be served at Strong's and
the pipe of peace smoked.
