CIRCUIT COURT
FAILS RULE ON
INDIAN STATUS
t
Says Question of Citizenship
Immaterial in Annette
Island Case.
Thai the question of citizens'!Ip
of the Indians residing on Metla-1
katla Island, raised by Judge James!
Wickersham, special counsel for the!
Territory, in appealing ,the Annette |
Island cannery tax case, was not;
material, Is the declaration of Judge|
Gilbert in recently announcing the;
i decision of the Circuit Court of Ap-‘
1 peals upholding Judge Heed's ruling1
j that the Territory had no power to I
I tax the cannery output on the isl-,
land. The Appellate Court, there-:
I fore, did not pass on this question !
, The other contentions of the Ter-;
I ritcry wore also overruled by the1
Circuit Court's decision. Until the1
Territory has received copies of the'
opinion and had an opportunity to|
examine it closely it cannot be de-;
termined whether or not the case1
j will be appealed to the Supremo j
I Court, said Gov. Scott C. Bone to '■
1 day.
The first contention of tho Ter-|
ritory was that the point at issue
“is whether a foreign corporation
j engaged in canning salmon on An
i netfe Island In Alaska is compellable
j to pay a Territorial tax levied
*i agninst It based on the output of
l its cannery, in common with all
other persons and corporations en
gaged In a similar business in the
Territory." It was argued in sup
port of this that the Territory is
] empowered by law to Impose taxes
and licenses additional to those al
! ready imposed .by Congress on trade
I and business.
Says Is Privilege Tax.
In tills connection the Circuit
Court said: “This grant of power
to tax however, must be read in the
: light of the Organic Act of the
i; Territory and settletjt*’principles of
I; law established by the courts. The
i; Organic Act contains the limita
ji tion which is found in all Terrt
i j torial organic acts, that no tax shall
jj.be imposed upon the property of
jl tho United Stales, and the decisions
| of the Supreme Court have firmly
['established the riile that no State
j or Territory has power to lay a tax
I on a means or instrumentality used
j by the United States in tho per
jjformance of a duty appertaining to
j;it. The tax here in question is not
[la tax upon the property of the
| plaintiff in error. It iB an occupa
>;t1onal or privilege ta*. Alaska Salt
[iFieh Co. vs. Smith, 225 U. S. 44.
5 The tax. if permitted, might be de
| struefcive of the means adopted by
j the government to carry out its
• .purposes and obligations.”
i Citizenship Not Material.
• Regard the statuB of the Indians
• as ward, the Court said:
I “The plaintiff in error argues that
the Indians on Annette Island are
not. and never have been, since
their settlement there, a 'tribe of
Indians,’ that thoir descendents by
> virtue of their birth on the island
•became American citizens, that the
Alaskan natives who joined them
.were likewise not an Indian tribe,
i and that the island never became
I an Indian reservation. As we view
the questions necessary here to be
decided, we think the fact that the
Indians are not tribal, and the fact,
if it be a fact, that the majority of
the Indians on the island are citi
' zens of the United States by virtue
of their .havting been born on the
' soil of the United States are Im
material, for although such Indians
may be citizens, they are still sub
ject to the care and protection o(
1 tho United Slates, Winton vs. Ames,
' 255 U. S. 391. The Inhabitants of
the island, being Indians, stand in
the same relation to the United
States as do Indians on other reser
r rations. Nor is it material that
' 'thty, Metiakahtla Indians were Brlt
s ish subjects before their emigration
to the United States. Congress has
• .made that fact immaterial here, Al
f aska Pacific Fisheries vs. United
• States, 248 U. S. T8. The govern
ment has always recognized these
Indians as its ward. The Act of
March 3, 1921, declares that An
nette Island be 'set apart as a res
ervation’, for their use. Nor was the
Secretary of the Interior without
• authority to execute the lease tc
) the packing company. He was em
powered to make rules and regula
tions for the government of the In
3 dians in the occupation of the
•island. Such regulations so auth
1 orized by Congress have the fores
> of law. In re Koilock. 165 U. S.
f 526; United States vs. Foster, 233
» U. S. 515; McKinley vs. United
r States, 248 U. S. 397. ‘The general
• rule is that statutes passed for the
benefit of dependent Indian tribet
•or communities are to be favorably
construed, doubtful expressions be
ing resolved in favor of the In
dians,' Alaska Paeiric Fisheries vs.
i ■■■■•— r i ——
i
Un4te* States, supra. In that case,
the court held that the purpose of
the reservation was to safeguard
and advance 'a dependent Indian
ipeople dwelling within the Uni tad
States.' citing United States vs.
Kagauna, 118 U. S. 375, and United
States vs. Rlckert, 188 U. S. 432.
Thero can be no question therefore'
but that the Metlakahtln Indians!
are wards of the government. They|
are dwelling on the island at the
puff ranee of the government and onj
“land which belongs to the United!
States. The purposes sought to be!
accomplished hy the government are|
the same as its purposes for all ln-1
dian reservations, to encourage, as-;
fipt. and protect the Indians in theirj
efforts to acquire habits of indus
try, become self-supporting, and ad-i
vance in the ‘ways of civilized life.
In conclusion the Court held that
the Secretary of the Interior had a
right to intervene in the action,
adding, however, "but it is immater
ial here whether or not there was
technically a right of intervention.”
The judgment of the local Court,
therefore, was accordingly affirmed.
