Alaska sentinel., 1908-05-14

stoned by the churches as mission- arv workers. Now the attention of the missionary delegations, com prising these bodies, has been focused upon China, now upon In dia and now upon Japan. The religious beliefs of these people and other so-called heather have been deplored and the great need of car rying the gospel according to Christian creeds to them has been expatiated upon. Yet from some cause these wretched heather at our own very doors; these simple minded, tractable, inoffensiye but shockingly degraded creatures, the Alaskan Indians, have been over looked in this jealous search for souls to save and bodies to rescue.
 Is it that the very nearness of these people blind the missionary workers to their appalling need? Isit that to ciyilize and uplift the Alaskan Indians is but a paltry, disagreeable task near home-so very near that its taint is almost upon our garments, its stench in our very nostrils? That this task does not involve the expense of theological course or the cost of a voyage? That it represents mis- sionary effort divested of the TO- nance of travel, the martyrdom of long banishment from home and native land?
 An object ever pressing aims the sight
 And hides behind its ardor to be seen"
 declared a deeply religious poet of past generation. Perhaps this is why our zealpu2 missionary work CTS overlook the bitter needs of the Alaskan Indians and are so deeply concerned for the welfare of the "heathen" of storied Nippon, Far ther India and Far Cathay."

HOME MISSIONARY FIELD
The following is copied from thl Portland Oregonian:

Portland Oregonian,
 The physical and moral condi- tions of the Indians in Alaska are probably as bad as they can be. The public was told but now, by a federal official of that far northern territory, of the alarming preva- ience of tubercular maladies among these people and the rapid spread pf such maladies through condi- tions incident to unsanitarv living, insufficient or innutricious food and utter ignorance of the communica- bility of disease by contact. The picture presented was a sad and indeed a reYolting one IL was as- serted in this connection that un- less quic kmeasures were taken 10 quarantine the Indians who are afflicted with scrofulous diseases, and particularly the tuberculous Indians, and teach them the simple rules of cleanliness and the value of fresh air in their abodes, tLat not only would the Indian popula- ton of the Alaskan Peninsula per isl from off the earth in the space of few years, but the white popu- lation would also be practically wiped out, this notwithstanding the fact that the climate of Alaska is bracing and its natural conditions are in every way conducive to health and longevity,
 So lar as the public has teen in formed, no notice has been taken by the federal health officers of this presentment and appeal. Now comes another report from these wretehed Indians that is even more appalling than the first. 4 woman is the informant in this case-Mrs. C, R. Reynolds, who has spent many years in Juneau. Sitka and Douglas, the older centers of settle ment, and who is no doubt fully qualified to speak. According to Mrs. Reynolds, who is in Seattle seeking to arouse the pity of the pitiful and the interest of the pub lie generally, young Indian girls, and indeed girls of mixed breeds and nationalities, are sold by their unnatural mothers at very tender ages, for immoral purposes to bru- talized men. It is not case now and then that is reported, but a revolting custom against which Mrs. Reynolds protests in Ahe name of pity, humanity and decency-a custom that not only debases the bodies of the victims but subju- gates the moral sense of all con- cerned in the vile traffic, to the basest of instincts and afilicts the offspring of such degrading alliances with untold miseries. Mrs. Rev nolds will consult the officials of the Washington Children's Hou e SOc.etr, hoping by their advice and corporation to bring this matter to the attention of congress through the Washington delegation,
 We recall in this connection tie fact that missionary societies ci the various church denominations in this city and sfate have been very b1sF he past few weeks in present. ting and discussing thc question of foreign missions, The "all-day missionary meeting has been made 5 an occasion for prayer. exhortation, feasting and general good fellow ship among those who are commis-
