ST .PUNKIN, POSTWAR,
Is TO BE CHAUFFEUR
POStofCe Officials Give Rural Carriers Permission to Use
Automobiles in Spite of Uncertainty of Vehicles
on Ordinary Country Roads.

Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
De GTaw has recommended, and Post
master General CorteIyou has approved
the recommendation, that rural carriers
of the mails be allowed 70 use automo-
biles in distributing the newspapers and
letters along their respective routes in
the country, where mudholes are the
paradise of wayside swine and frozen
ruts are the curse of w&yfaring coach
men.
Mr.. De Graw has, apparently. made
this recommendation without tremor
or a misgivlng. He evinces an aston
ishing confidence in the sea-going quail
ties OF the automobile. Turning a deaf
ear to the cries of those who have
traversed country roads after a heavy
rain or a sudden thaw, he has picked
the automobile to run swiftly on the
roads, whether the run be short or long.
Target for Guying.
He seems TO ignore the fact that
farmers viii stand by the roadside and

FIVE MONTHS FETE
BY INDIAN THRONG
Thousands to Gather This
Month in Northwest.
MURDER POSSIBLE OUTCOME
Potlaches Usually Do End in Loss of
Money and Death for
Participants.

VANCOUVER. B- c. Jan. l0.-Three
thousand Siwashes viii gather at Fort
Rupert early this month TO participate
IN one of the greatest pOtlaChes ever
neld on this coast since the white men
arrived on the scene.
1t is expected that the festivities will
last from three To FIVE months, and that
during that time thousands OF dollars
worth OF blankets and other articles
will be distributed as gifts by several
hundred indians, who wish 10 make
good fellows OF themselves.
News of the coming potlach was
brought 10 tho city by Provincial Con-
stable Woilacott, of Alert Bay.
Murder Possible.
Il expect that the Indians viii gather
az Fort Rupert soon" said Constable
Wollacott, and it would not surprise
me bit if trouble. possibly murder was
done along the northern coast as a
result of the potlach.
THE members OF fourteen tribes are
expected TO take part in the affair,
which may last anywhere from three
10 nvc months. The tribes should aV-
Srage about two hundred men and wo-
men in strength
1T is estimated that the gifts disposed
of by an Indian at these large potlaches
Keep him poor and i'm debt for about
ten years. Oh. no, all the Indians do
not break even ON "a potlach. for the
reason that not every man attending
the gathering gives away his stun.
comparatively few are donors at pot
lach.'
Hanging as Result.
The last pouach at Fort Rupert was
productive of one murder. The vie
tim was a woman, who was killed for
about 500 in money which she had on
her person. The murderer was hanged
at New Westminster last summer.
