SOURDOUGH BILL HIMSELF
‘‘I may be late but I always do
my duty,” stuttered Sourdough Bill,
pictured above in a sober moment,
as he strode sedately toward the
city clerk’s office to register for
next Tuesday battle of the century,
the local municipal election. The
cigar is an 111 Perfecto, Cabagnito,
the same brand chewed by
Hot Springs Pedro .another good
man. “I intend to vote for all of
the candidates,” Sourdough mur
murmured into the pinklike ear of a
local frail.

Across the Kaltag and Unalak
leet Portages swept a blizzard and
its stinging fury forced all living
things to seek a shelter, only man
| terrors and he too sought shelter.
; The writer comfortably immersed
| in thought,—or what he thought
| was thought,— was suddenly cata
paulted into activity by hearing the
door opening and his name called
! in a cheery voice and then he look
ed into a pair of steady brown
| eyes and a mouth wreathed with
smiles, a sturdy figure dressed in
(the costume of a summer prospec
tor, and covered with snow.
‘I arp Father Hubbard, Father
liubbard, the, yes—the Glacier
Priest.” “A thousand welcomes, the
house is yours, have some coffee,”
I said. “Not until I put my dogs
away,” stamping himself at once
with the stamp of the grained
musher. Activity gave place at
once to the inertness of the writer
and the team was unharnessed,
but not without a scrap between
two of his dogs, Bill and Katmai,
who to show their contempt for a
50 mile run and their disgust at the
! weather conditions were giving a
physical culture exhibition that
ceased under the admonitions of
the Glacier Priest backed by a whip
skillfully used. And it was thus
that the writer met the Glacier
Priest.
j To introduce the Glacier Priest
j Priest to the readers of the Nugget
j and attempt to write of his many
wonderful discoveries would be
superfluos and beyond the writer’s
j ability.
I Now, the Glacier Priest speaks
j for himself for the Nugget in the
j first formal interview of his winter
activities.
‘‘My 6,000 miles, winter trip, from
; New York to Unalakleet, has been
a very novel experience and some
thing rather out of my line. On
mountains, glaciers, volcanoes, I feel
very much at home, but behind my
own dog team from Nenana to the
present point of my route to Akul
urakhas, has shown me a real Al
aska entirely different from both i
screen and popular conceptions |
manufactured as propaganda on the j
outside. j
“I have interrupted my scientific
work, by obtaining a year’s leave j
of absence from the University of j
Santa Clara, for the purpose of!
making a 1,200 mile mush to all !
the Jesuit Missions of the Interior;
of Alaska, to take 20,000 feet of mo- j
tion pictures that are to show the |
result of the heroic labors of the!
Great Pioneer missionareis, many
of whom are now gone. Both lay
and ecceliastical organizations are
highly interested in ths pioneer
work of Alaska, and as yet have j
had no true picture of its reality. I
“Motion pictures of historic j
scenes and settings, natives at the
various mission centers, the work
of the fathers and sisters devoted
to them at present, together with
incidents of the trail and adven
tures, form a picture of continuity,
that will undoubtedly prove of vast
interest to a public deeply inter
ested in Alaska, and also prove of
historic value to students yet to
come.
“Dogs, trails, storms and bliz
zards, ^irplane flying, mountain
scenes, shelter cabins visiting Yu
kon fish traps and camps traplines
and other scenes have already been
filmed.
“Now the Bering Sea, with its
features, open up a new vista of
photographic interest.
“Thus far I have taken over 8,000
feet of moving pictures and from
Unalakleet to Akularak via St.
Michael’s, I expect to get several
thousand feet more of most valu
able movies.
“My winter trip will end at Holy
Cross, about the middle of April,
where I’ll await the break-up of
the ice. There I’ll leave the dogs and
sled and use an airplane to fly
to the great moon crater of the
Alaskan Peninsula, where my stu
dent co-explorers will meet me,
and the summer will be devoted to
a thorough scientific investigation
of their wonders.
■ ‘‘Probably, I’ll return late in Au
gust to Nenana, to go by boat down
the Tanana and up the Yukon to
its source in Canada, making a
j complete summer-winter trip of the
entire river.
“Returning to the Outside in the
| Fall, I expect to continue giving il
lustrated lectures in various cities
j on the world wonder that is Alas
|ka.
! “What has impressed me, most of
| all, from Nenana to Unalakleet has
j been the generous hospitality, re
spect and honest admiration of
Alaska's real old sourdoughs who
are direct and outspoken and use
| terms that need no explanation,—
ja real pleasure to one accustomed
| to the inane vaporings of the shal
• low-minded people of the Great
i Outside?
j “One of my main regrets is that
my original intention and that of
Bishop Crimont’s to visit Nome and
the rest of the Seward Peninsula
could not be .carried out owing to
the lateness of the season and the
length of the rest of my trip, but
I hope in the near future to be!
able to reach these points and espe
[daily to see the wonderful work
of Father LaFortune at King’s Is
land.”
During the short stay of the
jGlacier Priest in Unlakleet, his
! genial democracy endeared him to
| all the people and all were a unit
! in extending to him the keys of
! the town, and every effort was
I made to accord hm opportunities
I to film them, not only in their
j daily vocations, but in old customs
such as making fire by friction,
hunting with' purely Eskimo in
struments, were revived, so that
his movies would lack nothing and
would portray Eskimaux life as it
is and was.
The old Russian fort, old burying
grounds and all places of historical
and local interest were recorded in
making 2,000 feet of movies and
200 pictures.
