FATHER DUNCAN
A dispatch to Tire Pioneer on November 2! conveyed the infor
mation that William I. Lopp, superintendent of education for Alaska,
would leave Seattle in a lew duvas for Metlakahtla to establish a public
school, thus deposing the venerable Rev. William Duncan, the mission
ary who has looked alter the education of the natives of that d,strict for
the past 50 years and more.
Father Duncan started his work among the Tsimpsheans, a canni
bal tribe, near Fort Simpson, in 1858. With infinite tact he gradually
dispelled their superstitions, and after an alternation of successes and
set-backs, he persuaded some twelve hundred to abandon their sha
mans and their deviltries. He induced them to cease indulging in
liquor and gambling, to observe the Sabbath ar.d send their children
to school. In a couple of years they were domiciled in civilized homes
and had won a reputation for honesty and industry.
In order to remove his charges from the influence of white trad
ers, m 1862 Father Duncan led his followers to Metlakahtla, where
houses, a church, school house and storehouse were built, and a co
operative colony was established. Agriculture, fishing, lumbering and
trapping were conducted on a remunerative basis under Father Dun
can, and the natives became prosperous and law-ab;d ng.
The missionary’s efforts on behalf of the natives were not all
smooth sailing, and he found Inmseif opposed by the powerful Hudson
Bay Company. In his dealings with that great company he displayed
real statesmanship, and finally was allowed to conduct his enterprises
in peace. Fie established a cannery, a sawmill, and many useful trades
and organized the celebrated Metlakahtla Ind'an band. Ecclesiastical
persecution, however, was the greatest danger that the missionary had
to contend with. The church authorities objected to Father Duncan s
unorthodox conduct of church ceremonies, which he had changed to
suit the condition and the understand ng of his charges, and lie was
deposed by the bishop. Fire natives, however, loyally stood by tnesr
friend. When church and state combined against them and commis
sioners took possession of their lands and the products of then tod
they decided to remove to Alaska, where, as Father Duncan told them,
they couid "have their own religion without any government.” So,

_ __ >
1 he the Pilgrim Fathers of o'd. they remyoed to Annette island, 90
miles northward, which was set apart for them by congress as a reser
vat.on, subject to the regulation of the secretary of the inter.or.
Stripped of all their personal possessions with the exception of a few
personal effects which they stowed away m their canoes, they re
nounced all they had gamed lor the sake of the.r simple faith, and
owed allegiance to the friendly government whose protection they
ad begun to enjoy.
New Metlakahtla was thus established, and for more than a quar
er of a century Father Duncan has ruled this community as mayor,
judge, treasurer, and tor, attorney and business manager, in addit.on
o administering to its people as physician, teacher and pastor. 1:
1696 a magnificent cathedral was built. A public library was estab
lished, stocked with thousands of volumes. Agriculture was encour
aged, and the cultivation of berries and vegetables, the cutting and
curing of hay, and dairying were pursued. A splend.d water power
was developed, furnishing power to run a sawmill. Lumber and pack
ng cases and a fair quality of furniture were manufactured and a can
nery was operated. A small fleet of steam vessels, together with
docks and warehouses, were acquired. Ihe most profitable industry
Iras been the catching and canning of salmon. In 1905 the Metlakahtla
Industrial Company was, by common consent, taken over by Father
Duncan, who has since conducted the enterprises personally on a
wage-paying basis. Keen competition between great companies dar
ng the past few years has cut into Father Duncan’s trade, and the lure
of higher wages has induced many of the younger colonists to emigrate
once more for their own betterment. Deserted by nearly all his ener
getic young men, he was unable to operate the cannery last season at
a profit, and with this source of revenue gone, a most serious situation
prevails at Metlakahtla.
Now Father Duncan has come to realize that the only way his
good work can be kept up is by the government. He has appealed to
the secretaary or the interior to lake over his colony and congress is
!o be urged to maintain Metlakahtla as a model Indian reservation and
to conduct a modern training school and industrial colony.
The story of the life work of this grand old man reads like a ro
mance. The good he has accomplished in mak.rig these natives self
sustaining and self-respecting v. >11 stand as a monument to -n unselfish
and useiul life, and it is to be hoped the government will perpetuate
the work, not only for the immediate good accomplished, but for the
emulation of educators and missionaries m their dealings with the na
tives.
It seems that epicureanism is not confined to the wh.te races. The
St. Loins Globe-Democrat tells of a returning missionary from Ne v
Guinea who announces, after a long observation of and fam.l.ar.ty
with the habits of cannibals, that they prefer the v/h'.te meat of white
men only after it has been held in storage long enough to have de
stroyed the flavor of salt and the other Spices and condiments with
which men of the white race are wont to saturate their flesh. The can
tv bo Is, it is announced, much prefer eai.ng a colored person to any one
or us. I he darker flesh is not permeated with the tang of the sharp
appetizers to which civihzat.on has accustomed the Caucasian. Ac
cordingly, in times of scarcity, when there is nothing but white meat
to be had, the cannibals put it in storage, and keep it there long enough
for the objectionable flavors to disappear.
President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor, in an
address at Seattle recently, pictured child labor conditions in the South,
and sa.d that white children were compelled to work in the mills while
negro children romped about in the fields enjoying strong bodies, and
many attended school. Therefore, when the present generation is
grown up, if a literary test is applied to the voters the whites will be
disfranchised while the blacks will vote. Thus will the blacks be the
superior race morally, physically and intellectually.
* VIEWING WITH ALARM
When I go into Jimpson’s store, I find that Jimpson’s head is sore; his voice up
lifting, he says: “I’m almost in despair, and every day I wonder where the coun
try's drifting. Trade grows so bad I'm seeing red; ere 1 ng we all must go to bed
without our suppers; the crops have all gone up in smoke, and every man I know is
broke, and on his uppers. I do not get sufficient cash to keep my family in hash,
which makes me dizzy; and things are growing worse and worse; the man who owns
the village hearse alone is busy.’’ I always hear that sort of spiel when into Jimp
son’s store I reel, to buy some onions; his heart is sad, his feet are cold, his mind
is covered o’er with mold, his soul with bunions. And that is why I take my ore
to old Dad Gundelfinger’s store, across the alley; he always greets me with a chirp
and gambols round me like a purp with quip and sally. The state of trade he
doesn’t curse, but “things might be a whole lot, worse,” he says; “dog-gone it, I see
a lot of trade ahead; the man who says that things are dead talks through his
bonnet.”
