Longview, Washington (AP)
John Barnett, who led Washington state’s Cowlitz Indians to federal recognition and as tribal chairman battled for the right to operate a casino north of Vancouver, is dead at 73. Barnett, a longtime timber industry worker, passed away June 15 at his home north of Aberdeen, according to the tribe’s Web site and a recorded message on the tribe’s telephone answering machine. The recorded message said tribal offices in Longview would remain closed. |
