taken it was found that the COW
was unhurt, but the radiator of the
machine was leaking numerous
places, all of which goes to show
the hardness of the Arizona crit
ter.
The accident occurred about mid
night, when the chief was return
ing to Canyon Lodge from the res
ervation with a load of Indian
pottery. There were 500 pieces OF
pottery in the car. None of it
was broken, however.
According to Secakuku, he and
his brother, Philip Zeyoma, have
sold their trading post on the res
ervation and Zeyoma plans to estab-
lish curio shop along the high
way at some point east of Winslow.
The curio store of which Secaku~
ku is proprietor at Canyon Lodge
is proving of much interest to
tourists who stop at the lodge be-
tween here and Flagstaff. Indian
dances are now being staged at the
lodge three times every day.

for the benefit of tourists and
other visitors. Secakuku is main
tanning six Hopi dancers at the
lodge. The Buffalo, Eagle, Butter
fly and War dances are given at
these exhibitions, enabling the
public, as Secakuku says, to see
the Hopis in the real Indain dances
without going into the reservation.
He also gives a short talk on each
dance in explanation of it's mean
ing to the Indians.

INDIANS
HOLD TO ANCIENT
TRIBAL CUSTOMS

Indian tribal customs still cling
to the primitive in many sections of
Arizona Through generation after
generation, these native Americans
have held to the rites of their fore
bears, unaffected by the advances
of civilization.
No community in all the United
States shows the Indian of yester
year to such advantage as Arizona.
Here he is seen pursuing the voca-
tions that have followed his tribes
men through more than half CEN
tury; his religious ceremonials are
those of his great, great grand
father.
Yet there is a contrast in the In
dian life of this state, probably a
greater contrast than is to be found
all Indian institutions of learning
is located near Phoenix and it is
accomplishing wonders in the
transformation of the redskin. So
where is shown the primitive In
dian in one field, the modern In
dian is seen in another, practicing
the methods of his white brothers.
This story, however, has to do
with the primitive Indian, or per-
haps better, tribesman. He is the
same as he was when first came
the white settlers. True, he has
been educated, in a manner, but he
has not discarded the supersti
tions of his people that guided them
in their religious rites. Instead Of
the gee-string, he wears bright
colored clothing another inheri
tance of yesteryear.
The tribesmen invariably follow
the vOcations that were handed
down to them from other genera
tions. Pottery making and weav-
ing, for example, is their chief
means of livelihood-s speaking OF
the Indians who populate the more
or less isolated sections of the state.
FarhingJ as in years gone by, is
practiced to an generally

cient methods of grinding grain are

Probably the most interesting
features of these people are their
religious ceremonials. In the north
eastern section of Arizona, on the
southern borders of Colorado, is
Hopiland The little villages of
Walpi and Oraibi are the centers
of this community.
In one or the other of these vii
lagos is annually held the snake

mony in their plea to the Great
Father for rain. This dance is un-
questionably the most famous, the

DEATH OF CARL FORsBERG
 EAST FORK ROADHOUSE

Carl Forsberg, a we'll known old timer of the Kuskokwim district died recently at the East Fork roadhouse g miles from Medfra, where he had been located for the past couple of years. MT. Forsberg had been sick since last fall since which time he had gradually wasted away. The na- ture of his illness was uncertain, some saying that it was cancer of the stom- ach while others believing it was tu- berculosis.
 Fred Spencer and a few others in- cluding Vance Mcdonald, who was re- turning to Nenana, went up from Medfra to the East Fork roadhouse where brief funeral services were held and near which the body of the old timer was laid in it's final resting place.

GASOLINE
27 CENTS

* y
During January, February and
March which make up the first
quarter Of 1925, state officers as
sert more gasoline was sold than
in the same quarter Of 1924 be-
cause of open weather.
During the period in 1924
when weather conditions kept
many automobiles in garages,
the tax paid on gasoline sales to-
tailed s137841.6O.
M0ntana dealers who have paid
the tax before it became delin-
quent in the first quarter of
1925 report an increase of 10 to
Is per cent over the business in
the corresponding period Of last
year.
Therefore the amount withheld
by distributors and refners has
increased from the original esti-
mate Of about S125,00 10 a total
of nearly 100000.
This money belongs to the
state. II was collected for the
state under announcement to
that effect and in theoretical
obedience to a state law. But it
is being withheld from the treas
ury by larger distributors and
refiners, the Texas Oil company
being the only one of three lead
ing distributors to report and re-
nit.

RUSSIAN PACT
HOLDS DESPITE
FRENCH CHANGES
HERRIOT DID NOT PUSH TRADE,
RYk0FF SAYS


MOSCOW.-In an interview with
journalists at Leningrad, where he
came for a short visit, Rykoff, presi-
dent of the council of peoples COM
missaries, declared that, for a num-
Der Of years yet, private commerce
was bound to play a considerable
part in the economics Of the Union
of Soviet Socialist Republics.
No Obstacles to Private Capital
While the commercial exchange
had rapidly grown lately, neither the
state nor the cooperative trading
organizations actually could increase
their capital In measure fully cor
responding to the general growth of
national economy. The relation be-
tween state and private trading must
be based entirely on the principle Of
sound economic competition, Mr.. Ry-
koff observed, and no administrative
obstacles should be created to the
private capital.
FrancO-Russian Relations Unchanged
In reference to the resignation of
the French premier, the president eff
the council Of people commissaries,
remarked that the good intentions of
Mr.. Herriot's cabinet in the domain
OF mutual relations with the Soviet
Union had been better than what
they practically put into effect, so
that the new French cabinet could
hardly be expected to make those re-
lations any the worse.
HerriOt Lacked Confidence.
. Indeed, Mr.. Rykoff stated, while
the progress Of restoration Of normal
relations had been extremely slow
since the recognition, the lack of any
progress in the solutions eff such i'm
portant questions as the old debts or
the Wrangel fleet partly hung on the
want of confidence of Mr.. Herriot's
cabinet in its own forces.
That it was necessary 70 move the
Franco-Soviet inter-relations from
their present abnormal dead point. .
was Mr. Rykof's conclusive remark.

CAR OWNERS KEEP
PAYING WHILE TAX
NOTICE DISAPPEARS

Mystery has been injected into
the gasoline tax lodging case.
Corporations which have failed
to report TO the state the amount
of tax collected during the delin-
quent quarter and which still re-
tain this money paid them by car
owners have another tack.
Signs at service stations which
have been posted since the two
cent per gallon tax lay was pass
ed have been altered, and refer
ence to the state tax omitted.
BUT THE PRICE OF
GASOLINE REMAINS
THE SAME.
Whether it be an attempt to
punch holes in the revised law as
passed by the state legislature or
another legal attempt at evasion
of handing over the money be-
longing to the state, has Montana
officials puzzled.
On Saturday, May 9, this sign
appeared at many service sta
tons:
