Knockers Seek
to Injure Town
of Anchorage
It has come to the attention of The
Daily Times that several tourists on
>ne of the late steamers dicl not come j
ishore at Anchorage on account of the
cnocking of some narrow-minded pas
senger. Upon absolutely reliable au
thority it is learned that the word wa
jiven out that Anchorage was no
dace to visit, there being nothing of
nterest in the city and the whole
dace was a veritable mud Hat.
This false impression and the erron
eous statements were made especially
to a party of. physicians and their
ivives hailing from the states of Kan
?as and Missouri, who were touring
Alaska.
One of the party, Dr. R. E. Feall.
ef Paola, Kansas, disregarded the ad
vice of the knocker and came ashore
and was extended the customary cour
tesy of the local physicians in charge
of the government hospital. Dr. Feall
spent several hours on shore and nat
urally was greatly impressed by the
sights of Anchorage and the substan
tial work of the Alaskan Engineering
Commission.
In speaking of the affair Dr. Feall
made the statement that every mem
ber of the party were particularly de
sirous of seeing Anchorage and that
he was only sorry that it was impos
sible for him to make a further inves
tigation of conditions. He said, how
ever, that he would certainly put the
balance of his party right and advise
them of what he had seen of Anchor
age and the government railroad
work.
The other members of the party
consisted of Dr. and Mrs. John H.
Outland, Dr. and Mrs. H. E. Ander
son, Dr. and Mrs. W. E. Rollihan, and
Dr. and Mrs. F. E. Rollihan.
Dr. Feall is local surgeon for the
Union Pacific railroad located at Pa
ola and Dr. Johnnie Outland has been
a figure prominently connected with
college athletics, having been select
ed by Walter Camp for the All-Amer
ica football team for the years 181)7
to 1900.
This ihatter of knocking should be
brought to the attention of local
steamship companies and any future
attempts to hurt the fair name of An
chorage frustrated and the party or
parties summarily reprimanded.
History of the
Presbyterians’
Alaska Work
The Presbytery of the Yukon in
session at Anchorage, desires:
1. To express their appreciation of
the hospitality and entertainment ex
tended to them by the Rev. J. L. Me-1
Bride and wife, Rev. J. L. Hughes,
members and friends of the church.
2. To thank the Anchorage Daily
Times and the Forty-Ninth Star for
the press notices given to our meet
ings.
3. To acknowledge the courtesy
extended to the Presbytery members,
by the Alaskan Engineering Commis
sion in providing transportation for
them to investigate the Matanuska
field.
The Presbyterian church began mis
sionary operations in Alaska in 1878
when Mrs. A. K. McFarland came to
Wrangell as teacher in a mission
school. It was the pioneer organiza
tion in religious work and has kept
pace with material advancement in j
the territory and plans to do so in the
future.
At this time there are 18 fully or
ganized churches of the Presbyterian
denomination in Alaska with 1,383
communicant members. There are in
addition 65 unorganized missions and
preaching points making a total of 83
points of missionary work. In con
Sunday schools with a total enroll
nection with these stations are 23
ment of 1,720 scholars.
The church maintains an industrial
school at Sitka with a present capaci
ty for 150 native children, which is
soon to be increased to 200. There
are 18 teachers and helpers in this
school. It also maintains a hospital
for natives at Haines, with a doctor,
nurses and helpers to the number of
eight. Including 18 ordained minis
ters and all other workers there is a
total of 56 mission workers supported
by this church in the territory.
The northernmost mission of the
church and in fact on the western
continent is at Point Barrow, among
the Esquimaux. Missions are main
tained among four of the six native
tribes.
Present indications are that the
next organization to be effected will
be at Anchorage, the latest of the mis
sions of the church. It is the inten
tion of the Mision board to send ad
litional workers to lill the need along
die line of the government railroad
ind to minister in every possible way
:o the spiritual needs of this growing
territory.
