Best Answer

Every Chinook village had a head man or head woman. This leader was usually from a wealthy family. The head man ran the village and settled disputes and gave the potlatches. After the head man and his family there were other wealthy people who had more status in the village, there were the everyday people and then there were slaves.

In modern times there is an elected Council.
