We do little in this line of work; k;sayone-fourtho of our support comes from mines and other work while three-iourths comes from fishing. You can see and consider it. Maybe can say everything but it don't amount to anything. Suppose l ask the Congress to appropriate two mil lion dollars for our support.

 Anyway we AlaSk ans do not be- lieve one man feed another man. Itdont look good and not sound good. Allwew want you to do is to stop using salmon traps in Alaska. Seine is bad enough to use.

l speak to our government that rules our great country know as Alaska. The subject of this meeting is to send you our words about salmon traps as We are in trouble about them now and in time to come. Salmon traps ruin this great country of ours. By using this new invention of making easy money and making quick money it not only ruin our fishermen but it going to ruin the great Alaska fishing industry.
 You always say fishing products in Alaska give ten million dollars a year. Ifyou want to kill the hen that lays this ten millions dollars a year,use salmon traps. I did not mean salmon canneries but the salmon traps-either piled or floating traps. We invited all our white brothers to

NATIVES VIEW OF FISH TRAPS

On the evening of January 15 the natives of Sitka held a mass meeting to discuss matters re- lative to the fish traps and what might be done to abolish them. Following are extracts from some of the speeches as reported to us by a native present at the meeting.
The Thlinget., 1909-01-01
JAMES JACKSON

We, the people of Alaska, ask your attention to see andconsider what supports us. Children when in trouble often tell to their parents what causes the trouble. We feel like this and we want You to help us as a parent helps his children. What causes this trouble to us now is the fishing machinery known as fish traps. This same fish traps will covered all the in!ets and islands in Alaska. Sure this is the easiest way of making money but how long will this fishing industry last, if these fish traps keep go- ing. We like to see this fishing machinery ended. Seines are bad enough to use but salmon traps are worse. Remember
 fishing is our main support. We want the fish traps put out.
The Thlinget., 1909-01-01

Miss CaSsia Patton teacher of the Sitka Native Public school was ill for some time early in the month and had to close school. We are pleased to note that she has recovered and has school in operation again. The attendance at her school is larger then for some years past and there is at present work enough for two teachers.

As a sequence to the mass meet ing Of natives held Feb. .lj the following petition is being circu- lated among the native people and every oneis ready to sign it.
 To the Honorable Secretary OfCommercp and Labor.
 Washington. D. (.
 The native people of Alaska have always been a self-support- ing people. Our greatest means ofearninga living has been .andiS by fishing. The white man has been given our lands and our for ests. We are not permitted to own land outside of our own crO- wded villages. Now the govern ment has allowed fish traps to be used near the mouth of sal mon streams to take our salmon. In doing this it istaking away our means of making our own living. Not only this but in a few years the traps will destroy the fishing business entirely.
 We do not ask the government for money. Weare not paupers. We are not afraid to work. We do ask most earnestly for the privilege to earn our own living by ournaturalmeans of oflivelihOOd Knowing that the fish traps are to a very large extent taking aw- ay this privilege .we.the mdersig- ned natives living in and about Sitka. Alaska, ,domost respectfully petition you to do all in your power to abolish the use of fish, traps in Alaska waters.
