ALASKA NATIVE
BROTHERHOOD
CONVENTION
Metlaka t hla !Nouember
22 to 24 1015
Eighth and Ninth Sessions
; ho afternoon session. Wednes
day, Not. -4, was taken up with
; . • re pe n of the various eommit
.■-> iir.d the reading and adoption
j of several mohtkttt.
Through these resolutions the Al
aska Native Brotherhood formally
.Hiked the people of Metlakahtla
t their different societies for all
rat they did for the enjoyment and
1 ■cvrnori of the delegates of the con
veati the Government teachers
' at Methikakila: The " Daily Pro
cr;#ylve-Miner of ' Ketchikan, and
So • for Chas. A. "Sulrer and
fvt resetslatrves A. G. Shoup and
R Hateisit for their work or
a’f c-f the citisenship of the
tress ■>? Alaska at the last Ter
■w-rria! Legislature.
W rangell was chosen as the next
r ..ct for the convention of 1916.
T: >i finance committee reported an
■ >’ 5-$0 by ail the deTe
- -re After a brief discussion the
' o!ise decided that since local fmsr
beer, raised to cover at leas
r* of the traveling expenses the
matter coaid not be further adjust
5 so as to acualiie the whole bnr
an i by coramon consent it was
‘eft as it was.
The evening and last session of
• '■ ter vention, Wednesday. Nov
.14. was presided oved by the Presi
r.t. Mr. Peter Simpson. It was a
• uk r meeting and the hall was
: wdei with the Metlakahtla peo
“ subjects were on law
..an<j juKgio,, applied
■ the natives of Alaska. It was
' • ' that at least two of the
psblfe men in Alaska should handle
the first two subjects, but the con*
* rtton. on account of the pressing
basine-ss os the part of these gentle
s' *-r. ' as deprived of the privilege.
Whenever some ur.f©rs^er, things
tppened in which the delegates
■ placed in a delerrma, they
' - I at once and invariably cal!
the secretary for a way out. Sc
v as ©a this occasion the secre
■ s as called upon to make one
'r two observations on the sub
of law and government as a>
■ i t o the natives of Alaska,
The secretary remarked that the
tv:vs of Alaska are very fort
'. Rate today to live in a country
ere there is only one law for
and for all others. Equality
refers the law is a blessing; in
equality, such as some of the In
' ans is the States have experlenc
•• <L is a curse and one to be dread
ed and avoided. The present ad
vanced natives of Alaska have a
ttmeairt opportunities to take part
: t the making of the laws of this
- -rthera country. The laws are
not only prohibitive and remedial;
but they are stimulating; they are
an incentive to good progress
Irnore-.ee of the existing laws de
tr t - -.d ought not to excuse the
r ative - from their wrong doings.
Crir Alaska natives, be it said to
r.r :r -•'•dit. are among the most
' ; and law-abiding races of
■ r - whole country.
Mr. Mercer supplemented these
rev.arks by saying that although
- are equal before the law ofteo
~e.-. the stronger, ike shrewd ary!
f r-eyed trier, take advantage of
're weakness and ignorance of the
salive*. As an exmple of this
itisesa the utter disregard by cer
t-sir. area of the plain and just
rights of She native section of Ja
'i a»d re of the other places.
The subject of religion was again
de- 't with by the secretary who
s*rd 'hat already the natives of
Alaska are faithfully served by
s-Tr-'r American denominations, and
that It rests with the people con
cere ef to fee true at all tiroes to
rv.r own churches. Whenever the
- at. .- got into the habh of shifting
from one church to another simply
for tr.-e sake of escaping discipline
or, account of loose character and
-""oral conduct, it s a sign of a
' ;ri r. kind of native degradation
that is to be much deplored,
SoTr.e messages were read on the
rioor of the convention, and they
evoked very hearty applause. They
were is pan as follows ;
Got. J. F. A. Strong: “I wish to
a.- ire you that I am deeply touch
el fey this mark of yoar esteem and
'■or.fidev*, and I beg to assure
you. that I shall at all times en
ro^_ *o do whatever I* possible
f'-r the advancement of the native
' - vple of Alaska.”
nator Chas. A. Saizer: "To
1: j- bringing about these desired
.•-.ear-ires was, I can assure you,
a matter of gratification to me, and
1 shall always be glad to do any
*’ in my power to help the Alas
- natives to advance along all
meritorious lines.”
Sinalsar word* of encouragement
car e from Rep. A. G. Shoup, and
Trrf. W. T. Lapp and W .G.
Beattie, of the Bureau of Educa
tion.
The iletlakahtia Musical and Lit
erary Society presented the con
1
vntitn with a fine banner, and the
Metlakahtla Benevolent Society n
silver cup. Both of these were giv
en as a kind remembe ranee, an.'
they were acompanied with rnan.v
good words front the. Metlakahtla
people. The convention received
them and appreciated the spirit in
which they were given.
When everything was over the
chair asked the convention and all
the people present to rise and join
in the singing of the National
Anthem, “America". The anthem
was sung loud and with much feel
ing .after which the chair adjourn
ed the convention to meet at Wran
gell in the fall of 1916.
