REINDEER FAIR PROVED
 GREAT NATIVE ATTRACTION

Time: 41:40. One of the most en. tertaining of all the races was an five mile race with eight deer hitcn- ed to sled. This was won by an Igloo driver in 27:24 1-2 mins. The ten mile race with one deer was won by a Wales entry time: 37:O8. An interesting competition won by Thomas Sequeena was the heavy pull. One deer hauling 2209 lbs. 25 yds.
 A sled flashing contest wherein the load is placed on sled, covered with tarpaulin and made snow proof, also created great interest. The load" consisted of one large box, one stove, one sleeping bag, one stove, one clothes bag, rife, and snowshoes. The sled after being com pletely lashed was then rolled over and over in the snow and if any snow entered the competitor was disbarred. This was won by a Nome

The Reindeer Fair held at Mary'a Igloo by the Bureau of Education was an interesting and very 1mporr- ant event. It attracted delegates from various sections of the Penin- sula, the northernmost being the delegation from Buckland headed by Thomas Sequeena, native of some substance, who has herd of his own numbering fifteen. hundred, and who is a most remarkable man in every way. The Industrial Worker is indebted to Dr. Neuman for most of the particulars concerning this great event among the natives.
 The delegates were housed anu fed by the government, approximate ly reindeer a day being slaughter ed to provide meat for the party, and they came from Nome, Wales, Teller Shismareef, Lane river, Buck land, Douglas and the Ig1oo.
 The delegates were housed in a huge circus tent and it was in this that the delegates rccited the story of the trip with .Lopp, Jarvis and Bertholdt to Barrow in the early days with deer. Most remarkable oratorical aptitude was shown by the delegates especially Sequeena on this subject. The speeches having a historical value were taken down when translated by the interpreter. One of the most important con. ests was the lassoing contest in which there were sixteen entries. This was won by a Shismareef na- tive who lassoed five deer in the given time. The contest took place in a large valley, the feat consist ing in throwing the lariat around the deer's hind leg.
 A show harness contest was di- vided into three classes. Lapp Style, won by a Shismareef native, the Single Tree style won by an Igloo native and the new style won also by a Shismareef native. A wild deer race broken since September was won by Eddie Soogayok, five miles, time: 1898.
 Various forms of halters was also the subject of a competition. Ola Style won by a Lane river native, New Style won by a Nome native.
 A two deer race of five miles, driven team fashion, was won by q native named Koppok, time: IA: :55. Koppok is an Igloo native The decorated harness contest was b7 Thomas Sequeena with an exquisite design made of ptarmigan feathers The decorated collar contest was won by the Nome deer. The har- messing, hitching and driving con- test was by Wales competitor, time: one minute and twenty-five seconds. The ten mile race with two deer was won by an Igloo native.

Task Simplifed

The Mexican commissioners pointed
out that if Villa has been located by
the action at Chihuahua the task Of
running him down will be greatly
simplif1ed. They suggested that if
General Pershing's force now in Mex
leo should be withdrawn a Mexican
force would take its place and thus
prevent Villa from raiding to the
rorthward. General Trevino in the
opinion Of the commissioners will now
pursue Villa relentlessly. The diff
Guilty never had been to fight Villa
they said, but to find him.
Discussions Change Direction
1t had been expected that the dis
cussions today would be directed to-
ward the internal affairs of Mexico, a
direction in which they We're tending
last week.
The Mexican members brought sharply
to the front. however, the question of
border control and Of the American
troops in Mexico. This was due, it is
understood, to an official communication
from their government in which they
were asked why they were discussing
their internal affairs with representatives
Of another government instead Of confln.
Ing their debates to affairs on the bor-
der. It was expected that a method OF
adjusting claims Of Americans against
Mexico would be given consideration, but
the attitude Of the Mexican representa-.
tives has made 1t apparent that this
phase Of the controversy may not be
taken up for some days.
What was characterized as new pol
icy Of equal rights was discussed, how
mission contained the following reference
to the proposed policy:
THE policy Of the Mexican govern
ment toward American and foreign in
terests was given consideration. The ex-
PLANTATION was made that it was the Car
rama idea to put both Mexican and for
eign interests on the same footing.
It was said by the Mexican COM
missioners that the hope was that such
a policy would make Mexican devel-
opment by foreign capital both posi-
BILE and profitable instead Of the pres
ent conditions or Of those heretofore
IN existance which have given rise to
complications with foreign govern
ments by reason Of preferences given
foreign nationals. It was expected that
by the new policy OF equal rights a
great opportunity would be given to
all with capital and that the conditions
in Mexico would become more peace
full by reason of becoming less subjec.
to outside contentious"
Secretary Lane did not regard the
a discussion Of border problems as
shutting out entirely the discussion of
other problems regarded by the Amer
ican members as fundamentals IN the
general situation.
