Boalt Tells of a
Totem That Fell
Down On the Job
Indian carving war totem.
By Fred L. Boalt.
SEATTLE, Sept. 14. —This
■tory is written in the hope thai
It will be read by all jingoes.
It Is the story of the War To
:em of Sahqualk, or Fireman Jim.
Fireman Jim is a Vancouvet
Island Indian who was captured
by the Makahs In a long since
forgotten war. Chief Peter of the
Makahs brought Fireman Jim
home with him as his slave.
By and by Uncle Sam came to
the Olympic country and set Fire
{man Jim free. So he became one
bf the Makahs. During his slave
days his work was to keep burn
ing the fires on the beach at Pot
latch time. That's how he be
came known as Fireman Jim.
When Jim was a toddler, hit
father told him to keep his eyes
open for a powerful totem. One
day Jim was running along the
bua< b on the west coast of Van
couver Island. The tide was
low. Jim says he met a "great
little man with feathers alt around
him." He had feathers on hit
head and about his waist, and h<
held a feather in each band.
Jim knew right away he wai
Mho totem ha was looking for. So
he walked up to the little man
and said: Are you a totem?"
The little man said: "I am
Stobach-Shadad. An a totem I
can't be beat. I live on people. I
eat their heads. If you wish I
will be your totem. If war should
break out, you plow right In and
don't be scart. Oo and kill all
the people. Feast on their heads.
If you are wounded it won't hurt
you. lam the one who will suf
fer. All I ask is that, If you ever
cut a totem pole, you cut me Just
the way I am. Mark all my feath
ers and the two big spots on my
breast. When you cut the fot-m
pole, put me standing on a big
animal with a man In his mouth,
with only his feet sticking out,
and with plenty of room Inside
for more Iniiana. For that Is the
way I feel. No matter how many
people I kill and cat. I always
have plenty of room for more."
When the Makahs made war on
Jim's people, Jim got an arrow
through his shoulder. His totem
had promised that he would not
feel wounda, but he Is a wise In
dian now, and his very words to
me on the subject were that It
"hurt like hell, you bet!"
