Kamloops, B. c., April 13.-Repre-
sentative Indians of the Nanaimo.
Comox, Seschelt, Sla-Am and other
tribes of British Columbia are gath
ering here for great potlatch or
conference. A large number are al
ready here and many more are ex-
pected within a day or two. After
discussing various matters, such as
readjustment of reserves, the chiefs
will prepare a memorial to King Ed
ward, which will be presented by one
of their number selected to make the
trip to England. The Indians will
ask for treaties similar to those made
with the tribes in other parts of the
Dominion. They claim that year by
year their freedom is being more re-
stricted by the enforcement of game
laws, fishing regulations, ETC., and
they want a treaty made confirming
them in their rights.

A PORTER HEIR TO $50, 900.
Walla Walla Man Receives Draft for
an Inherited Fortune.

Wearing a Prince Albert coat and
driving a newly purchased horse and
buggy. w. H. Turner, yesterday a poor
man and today worth $4,000. drove
to the Stockton Mills tailor shop
where he is employed as porter, this
morning, and commenced work, says
the Walla Walla Bulletin.
Although Turner has been poor ali
his life and has had to work hard to
make a living, he says that he is 60
ing to continue to work, even though
he has a fortune.
When he received a draft yester-
day for $4,000 he cashed 1t, and
then purchased hand down
Prince Albert coat and a horse and
buggy. With these he appeared al
work today, and after washing the
windows informed the proprietorS
that he was going out FOR buggy
ride through the country, but that he
would be back after a while and dc
more work.
Turner seems to feel now, that al.
though he has to work; he can work
when he pleases and that II he
chooses to take a vacation in the mid
die of the day he will take It.
The money came from Charlotte
Mich, where his mother died and the
estate has been held in escrow foI
about 25 years.
Upon receiving such a large amount
most people would probably have
gone out on more or less expensive
celebration, but not so Turner. He
is pursuing the even tenor of his way
Part Of his money he says will be
used for building a home for himself
but 1t will not be elaborate.
Turner is well known in Walla
Walla, as he has worked for most OF
the people in the city at one time oil
another. Washing windows, moving
lawns, cutting wood, anything by
which he could earn an honest living
He Is a street evangelist and intends
to continue the work.

WILL RAISE MANY HOGS.
Harney County StoclSman Prepares tc
Engage In New Industry.

The following from the Burns Her
aid gives an idea of the development
of various industries in the interior
counties:
f. b. Hill. of the American Land
& livestock company. has been I'm the
city the past week. having come up
on business before the circuit court
He has just returned from tour OF
the Mississippi valley where he OBJ
served the method of raisnig hogs
for the market During his absence
he purchased 127 brood sows which
were brought to the big ranch In the
southern part of this county.
Mr.. Hill will raise hogs as a side
issue to the extensive stock business
proposed by his company and will
fatten his porkers on alfalfa and
Mexican field peas. According to hi.
observations this can be done at a bis
profit.
1t seems this pea Is very prolific
| and requires no attention whatever
after once sown. 1t Is fine forag,
/. for sheep and needs no threshing, a.
after the fields have been pastureC
off by sheep the hogs are then turned
in and fattened in a short time from
the peas that have fallen from tn,
stalk.
In this way the hogs will in no wis,
Interfere with the other interests, OF
the company and will be quite an item
in the small profits.
