EMPOWERING EsoUIMAU
 COMMUNITY IN ALASKA


 Chicago, July 4.-Completing six thousand mile journey from Point Hope, Alaska, which consumed three months and six days-two months and eight days of which were spent in 'mushing" thousand miles behind a dog sled through the snow-Rev. William A. Thomas, Episcopal Missionary at Point Hope, three hundred miles north of the Arctic Circle, brings remarkable story of self-governing Esquimau community which has been successfully carried on at Point Hope for, the past six years.
 Under the tutelege of the missionaries equal suffrage has been established among the Tigaras. who annually in town meeting elect among themselves the onelik. or cNmcil of leading men, who. in turn enact the local laws and see to their enforcement among the thousand natives who inhabit the region. This democracy of the frozen north even has its own prohibition law, which was adopted three years before the prohibition amendment was adopted in the United States. says Rev. Thomas.
 This unique venture in home rule was inaugurated six year ago, after the break down of the autocSltic rule of tribal chief, and following the instruction which has been given the younger gem eration of Esquimau. through s1 years at the Episcopal School at Point Hope, Rev. Thomas rezorts.

HUGE INDIAN TREATY
 BOWL IS DISCOVERED

Vancouver, B. C., July 4.-An Indian treaty bowl, weighing 500 pounds, and said to be the largest in existence, was found at Nimkish, 100 miles north of here.
 The relic which is said to be more than 500 years old, is Is feet long, and, ac- cording to archaeologists, was made by Indians using stone tools and axes. The bowl. which was the center of an interest ing Indian ceremony, was called by the aborigines ''the mother of the Five Tribes"
 These tribes would meet to discuss hunting laws and tribal boundaries, and such occasions the bowl was filled with some kind of liquor. After the conference of chiefs of the respective tribes, they would take smaller bowl and, filling it with the liquor would take 1t back to their councillors. If the terms agreed on for treaty were approved by these councillors, the liquor was accepted but if the councillors objected to any of the terms the liquor was returned and the vessel was laid under the neck of the idol. this constituting an ultimatum. The bowl was found by party engag- ed in removing a totem pole attached to the side of an old house. The relic will i be placed in the Vancouver museum
