ofthe errit0riial
 Legislature |
Resolution is introduced Condemning MetIakatIa
 Fishing Reserve.

IN THE SENATE-BY SENATOR
 HICKMAN. COMMITTEE sUB-
 sTITUTE FOR SENATE JOINT
 RESOLUTION NUMBER ONE.
 Be if resolved by the Senate of the Alaska Legislature, the House of Rep resentatives Concurring:
 That the creation of reservation eX- tending over the public waters of the United States, whether for the purpose Of securing monopolistic fishing rights for the benefit of Indians or Whites, are inimical, not only to the best in- tcrests Of all the inbabitnants of the Territory of Alaska, but to those of the whole people of the United States.
 The Alaska fisheries are among the largest ill the world, many millions of dollars have been invested in them. They have added to the industrial well being of Alaska, by giving employment to thousands of fishermen, including both Whites and Indians they have added 10 the food supply of the nation by filling the markets of trade with a food product that is at once cheap, pal atable and nutritious
 Commercial fishing is carried on at advantageous points along the shores of most Of the islands as well as those of the mainland. These shores are dotted with Indian villages, many of which are larger than the village of the Metakatlans. for whose benefit an ex- elusive and monopolistic fishery has been created. The inhabitants of these Indian villages belong to different tribes but the individuals of one tribe do not differ from those of another. All the Coast Indians, including the MetIakatlans, have the same character istics
 There is | reason why the Metla- katlans, who re inhabitants of Brit ish Columbia at the time Alaska was purchased from Russia should be giv- en monopolistic fishing privileges in l LUc NdtCI 5uIIOuHulliB AhiIth1 iDi"iINi when similar rights are not conferred upon the Natives who resided in Al aska al the time of its purchase. ! The Government of the United Sta i tes owes no duty 10 a tribe of British Columbia Indians that it does not owe to the Native tribes of Alaska. Yet if the IT onopolistic rights conferred upon the uedakatlans were also confer red upon the other tribes with res Dcct 70 the waters surrounding the various islands and washing the shores of the mainland inhabited by them from time immemorial. the white fish erman would lose their employment and means of livlihood and be compel | led to retire from the field.
 These lnvasions of the public right of fishery are not only destructive of the rights and privileges of the Whites but they confer no benefit upon the

Indians. The Indian, like the white man, is the product or nls environment The change wrought in the environ ment of the Alaska Indian by the ad- vent of the white man has transform- cd the rowing savage into the miner, fisherman, carpenter. and in many in- stances into highly skilled mechanics. The development of the fisheries and mines of Alaska has brought the h. dian into contact with the new and i'm proved surroundings, and the progress he has made in the race for civiliza- ton has been measured in each local ity by the extent of tie change there wrought
 These rights ostensibly reserved for the Indian do not inure to his benefit. In 1he case of the Annette Island res ervation, a contract was made with a white cannery man under which the latter. upon making certain payments to the Bureau of Education, has been given the right to enjoy the monopol- istic fishing privileges reserved to the Metlakatla Indians.
 These reservations destroy the use value of the fisheries so situated, that they must depend for their supply up on fish caught from the waters from which these owners are excluded, and they destroy to large extent the sale or market value of all other fisheries, wherever and however situated. In the case of the Annette Island reserve, one cannery at least was dependent to large extent for it's supply upon fish caught from these waters.
 The inauguration of this new policy on the part of the Federal govern ment has injured the stability of the remaining Alaska fisheries not thus directly affected These, likewise, de- pend for their fish supply upon the ex- ercise of the common right of fishery, a policy that places this right in jeo- pardy and is such that it's extension may at any time prevent it's exercise in any locality, impairs the value of the fisheries wherever situated. No one knows who will be the last to stand or the first to fall. The policy destroys those directly affected and menaces all others.
 i THEREFORE, BE TT RESOLVED, ! That the President Secretary of the Interior, Secretary of the Bureau of 1 Fisheries and the Congress, be, and ! they are hereby petitioned to take such steps as may be necessary to re- store 10 the people of Alaska that an cent right of fishery enjoyed by all those living under the protection of ! the common law since Magma Charta, i by which that right was recognized and confirmed, and te that end, that all monopollstic fishing privileges, wheth- CT resulting from reservation of the public waters or otherwise, be abolish
 ed so that all may exercise this nat
 pral right upon an equal footing.
