When any members of the national council thought it expedient to have a special council, or to have the council earlier than usual, they made their views known to the U ku, who generally yielded to their requests. On convening the national council, the U ku raised the national standard at the council house. This consisted of a long pole, painted white,

having a bird painted or carved near the top, and on the top, a white cloth four or five yards in length, ornamented with red spots like stars. But when they had no cloth the national flag was made of deer skin dressed and painted white and ornamented as above.

The standard being raised, the U ku then dispatched his messenger to the nearest town, where the notice was taken by another messenger: and so on through the nation.
In case any of the counsellors perceived, or thought they perceived danger from enemies, they immediately dispatched their messengers to the U ku with a piece of tobacco

painted red.
