A fine DESCRIPTION OF
A short TRIP TO ALASKA
Silverton, Oregon, Aug. 4, 1908.

Silverton, Oregon, Aug. 4, 1908.
Dear Tribune broke Off nv last
note of our Alaska trip at Dolomi,
Prince of Wales Island, with saying
that the next Sunday we would go in
the good launch "Taku" to attend
church at Meta Katla, twenty miles
across the straights. This good pur-
pose we carried out and had the privi-
lege of hearing one of the greatest
men of the country, Mr.. Duncan, in
his adherence of all ritualism he re-
fuses to be called Father Duncan
preach to his congregation of Indians
in the great church, every bit of
which they have built and furnished,
except the organ. A better clothed,
more devout body of worshippers
could not be found on either coast and
it was interesting to observe the
transformation the gospel had
wrought in few short years in a
tribe of cannibals into staid chris
tian community. Duncan's method
with his Indians is that of Booker
Washington with the colored people,
to teach them first the arts of indus
trial life and on that solid basis to
next further efforts at education. He
of Indian missions in the only proper
way. He let's them hunt and fish as
Is their wont, but teaches them to use
steam trawlers and other improved
methods in these pursuits; employs
them in his company and saw mills
and as they have remarkable me-
chanical genius, they are we'll quail
fed to hold their own in the fierce
competition with the white people
now so rapidly being forced upon
them. Mr.. Duncan is now rs years OF
age and is planning enxiously for the
perpetuity of his work. Mr.. Arkan-
der, a noted lawyer from Minneapolis
is now residing on the island prepar-
ing the biography of this remarkable
man who at his first coming to these
savages saw young women cut into
four pieces by the conjurers, borne
about in religious procession ant
then devoured.
Monday we fished for black cod II
a hundred foot depth of water off the
rocks in the home bay and in the
evening took a sail to Salt Lake
twenty miles away, where we saw
deer and voyaged in and out for sew
eral hours along the forest clat
shores at the base of precipitou
mountains and amid host of rock,
tree-clad islets, copy on a larg
scale of the thousand islands of tn
st. Lawrence. The other days Of gu
weeks stay at the Valparaiso and Col
den Fleece mines as we went in tn
"Saku" to Dora Bay, the North Arr
and Kit Coon Bay, in and out OF tn
deep inlets that admit you to tn
heart Of these Alaska shores, wit
