EXPERIENCE OE AN
ALASKAN INDIAN
STUDENT
TAKEN FOR A COLORED MAN
After 1 graduated as an English
siuder.; from Marietta College, O..
in the early summer of 189b, I treat
to CtncinninaU for a higher course
of training till 181*8 when I came
home to Alaska. Oaring the first
winter of my stay in Cincinnati and
a week before the Christmas holi
days I bought a first class ticket
shat would enable me to ride on the
Pulhr.an cars from Cincinnati throo
Kentucky, the northeast corner of
Tennessee, the northwest corner of
North Carolina and through Virgi
nia by way of Richmond to Wash
ington. D. C
Wero it not for the incident, and
the similar kinds, that I am about
to relate the ride was one of the
most delightful experiences of rev
student life. That was the farthest
south that I had ever been up to
' that time. -As 1 was anxious to
stead as much time as I could in
Washington City before the holi
days were over. I did not stop off
at any place on the route, not even
at the famous capital of the Con
federacy.
My trouble began after we left
Lexington, Kentucky, when a new
conductor came aboard the train.
This conductor examined my ticket
stared at me and then in a rather
unkind voice told me to leave the
Pa" man ear and go forward to the
ear beyond the smoker.
•'Tea do nos belong here, sir." he
said to me. “Take your baggage
and go into the ear beyond the
smoker."
“Mr. Conductor," I said, “my
•icket calls for a first class ride
with the privileges of the diner and
the observation car, and I do not
see how I can discard these rights.”
“You have no rights here.” he
answered, “and go forward at once.'
T respect your authority, Mr.
Conductor." I said again, “but
evidently you have misunderstood
the rights and requirements of this
ticket ana the agreement binding
the read to my comfort and favor.”
Railroad conductors usually do
cot waste time in arguments with
passengers, especially while the.
train is moving fast. This parti
cular conductor concluded that I,
had no business to be on a fine
velvet seat in a Pullman car, and
e acted as if he was going to put
his words in force. I also made
.p my mind that whatever might '
happen I would defend my Lawful \
rights even at the expense of a
possible forcible ejection.
The conductor went pass my seat
in collecting the tickets, and when
he got through he came to me
again. From his menacing looks
I knew that he meant real business.
And more than that he and the
brake man were together. He once
more stared at me as if hesitating,
and instead of laying hands on me !
he asked me this question. “You
are a negro, aren't you not?”
I burst oat laughing. “Gentle
men.” I said, “with the exception
-f the whole south I have traveled
-! every state of the Union and
’so seme of the provinces of Ca
nada. and I have been taken for a
Chinaman. Japanese. Filipino. Lar
’xnder. Italian, a member of the,
tribe of Israel, and «© forth: i
' -t this is the first time as a na- I
vvi negro from southeastern
Alaska.” '
The conductor tried to suppress
rs puffing feelings, but I could
ee the upward jerks of Ms chest
--- watch fob. They both walked
away and never bothered me aearn
rmce they took me for a negro
“key would make me ride with *re
“ the Jim Crerw car. —*\
' terrse that was according to
' “v law f-g which a negro had no
-r~v arnen].
