Yoar Patronage Solicited Father Duncan on War Path The Petersburg Progressive says: Partly ap an expression of defiance to the United States, and partly to punish his "children," as the white-haired priest calls the Simpsean Indians of Metlakahtla, on Annette island, for their rebellious aotton in demanding a government school, Father Duncan, the aged missionary, cut off the fresh water supply of the village. Ever since the secretary of the interior issued the order for the establishment of a gov ernment school on the island, a hostile move on the part of the missionary has been expected, but the shutting off of the water supply had never been thought of and came as a surprise. In *'>?? predicament, the natives, to gether with the government school teachers, appesled to Governor Strong, who issued a peremptory order to the old missionary to start the water through the pipes again. With the impudence and dignity of a Napoleon, he paid not the least attention to the governor's order, and by his aotiou made it perfectly clear that he holds with as muoh contempt the powers that be at Washington. Superintendent Beattie was ordered to proceed to the island to see what could be done, but so far no satisfactory settlement of the trouble has been effected and the na tives are still carrying water with buckets. . I All, however, seems but to strengthen the natives in their resolve to break from the control of their "father," and to fight for their declared object of civic and commercial freedom and full American citizenship. The old mis sionary, ou the other hand, holds to his contention that they are but childreu incapable to manage their own 'affairs who have become rebellious and there fore in need of a severe disciplining. Only twelve or fifteen of bis old fol lowers now remain with him. His , school has dwindled to almost nothing, while the attendance at the government school is daily increasing. It is said that there is still a love and veneration among the natives for the old geutleman who led them to their present utage of civilization, where with ; awakened ambition, they now demand ' further advancement. While openly hostile on week days, when Sunday comes around every man, woman and child of the village gather at the church , that Father Duncan built, where they worship and receive his blessings as they have since the year of 1887. Deputy Marshal E. I. Foster, whose hand wa? severely burned at the time of the Third Avenue Hotel fire, under went a paiuful operation at St. Mat thew's hospital Saturday, in which skin from his thigh was grafted to the in jured hand, says the Fairbanks Citizen. The *kin was takeu from a number of places on Mr. Foster's thigh and sue cussfully grafted to the hand. It was explained afterward by tbe physicians that the hand is healing and that in ' time it will not be materially crippled from the effects of the buru. A miniug company with a capitaliza tioo of $100,000 baa beeo organized in Iditarod to operate on Marvel creek id the Aniak district, Knskokwim.

ORPHEUM Opening Up Alaska B The passage of the Alaska railroad bill by the house, by overwhelming vote, emphasizes again the value of the campaign of education systematically carried ou by the Seattle Chamber of Commerce for three years past, says the Po.-t-Intelligencer: Now this bill only needs detailed adjustment in con* ference to receive the signature of the president and become a law. Then will follow constructive development that will bring the territory into its own. To the men whose united action at Washington has made this splendid outcome possibio Alaska and the whole of the Pacific coast will be eternally grateful. Additional legislation is also assured. Authorization of the building of a rail road from the coast to the interior is but the first step in opening op the rich country. The administration and oon gress are committed to a policy of real development ? which meant* that Alas ka's dreams are speedily lo come true. The shipping inteiests Ou the Paoiflo will be gratified to learn from the re* cent address of Secretary Redfleld, be fore the Chamber of Commeroe of the United States, that he is fully awake to the necessity of providing additional aids to navigation in Alaska waters. No part of the coast line of the United States, nor indeed of any other civilized country, is so paiufully lacking in suoh aids as is the coast line of Alaska. There are upwards of 400 steamships a year plying between Seattle and the ports of Alaska. The toll taken of life and property through the absence of proper charting of the waters and proper aids to navigation is an appal ling one. No year passes witnout the recording ol the loss of some vesael through striking an uncharted rock or thiougb the absence of proper lights and bt-acons. But. all this is to be belatedly rem* edied.
