To the People To the People, Much has been happening in Tribal Council over the last month. Legislative-wise, most everything is on hold. Swimmer has slowed the work on his initiatives to the point where they need to be re viewed by Congress nd the tribes. The consultation issue is coming to the forefront. So far, it doesn't appear that the tribes agree with Swimmer's way of consulting. Swimmer decided the best way to consult was to post his consulta tion policy in the Federal Register, a method that doesn't suit Indian tribes. Swimmer thinks it best to define consultation The tribes didn't say they wanted it defined. What they have said is, "If you want to do something, take the time to talk to us." We are still thinking that Swimmer wants to do things too fast. Even though consultation has been defined, it's not a manner that can be respected. Swimmer is sending recommen dations to Bureau area directors who in turn send them to agency superintendents. The superinten dents are then instructed to present the issues to tribal councils. The councils are given only 30 days to respond. He's not giving the Indian people time to digest the impact of those decisions and the time frame is not reasonable. Another way that Swimmer "consults" with tribes is to have articles appear in maga zines and other periodicals, expect ing the tribes to pick up the news that way. The tribes feel the best way to consult is to talk about the issues up front, digest the impacts and then have a reasonable time frame in which to respond. Senator Dan Inouye is exemplary of that method. He has a fine way of consulting.

The jury ruled affirmatively on the religion questions except those counts that indicated the fish had been caught or sold Sundays. Ex tensive testimony presented during the trial maintained that Yakima customs and traditions and the Washat religion historically set Sundays as non-fishing days. According to defense attorney Thomas Keefe, Jr., there is ample evidence there was a massive con spiracy to violate the rights of David Sohappy, Sr." and his other clients. Keefe has moved for an extradition hearing before his clients are surrendered from tribal custody. The Yakima tribe set into motion the prosecution in August with a resolution that said the fishermen should have been tried in tribal court, not federal court, on illegal fishing charges stemming from a state and federal sting operation.
