Differences of religious views be tween the Canadian missionary bishop and Father Duncan caused the Indians to migrate to Alaska coun and become Americans in 1887./ Father Duncan had come to the Simpseans as a missionary in the his early succens led the English | to send him a early 50's, and with the natives Missionary society bishop some 20 years later, Further difficulties arose when the bishop and Father Duncan disagreed on} religious teachings. Duncan finally came to the United States armed with indorsements from several American religious societies. secured permission from President Cleveland to select a home for his charges somewhere in Alaska waters. | The Annette islands, a short dintance south of Ketchikan, wae chosen. Duncan secured funds for a school, q building, a sawmill and a cannery from frtends and well-wishers of th project, in England and America, — | He organized « company for the cannery, but kept nearly half of the stock for himself, selling the rest to) the natives, and English and Amer fean philanthropists, When the can nery became prosperous, he closed! ~ both the Indians and the philan- | tropists out of the project, and re served all the business institutions | tii early services, he had outlived his usefulness to them.

When he again refused, he was re- minded that while the industries car ried on in his name had been initi- ated with capital furnished in behalf of the Indians, he was accounting to bo one for the profits. Duncan finally offered to sell th industries to the government for $35 000, on condition that he be allowed to control the church and the sebool. ‘This was refused by the government, which was willing that he keep the church, but could not consent to his retaining his control over the educa- tion of the Metiakatlans. Finally the government de- cided that the school service should establish « school by force, if necessary, and a repre- sentative of the bureau was sent Duncan “chained up” drant in front of his store, and defied any native to take a drink. The representative of the bureau unchained the hydrant, and the Indians resumed the use of the water.
