This study could not have come into being without the work, advice, friendship, love, and support o f dozens o f people. I am most grateful to my wife, Renee. Her love, and her occasional gentle admonishments have been indispensable. Renee kept me from joining the ranks of the terminal ABDs, and probably becoming a hermit. I also want to thank my children, Mac and Rachael, often brought me out o f the office and reminded me what is really important in life. And our new baby, Samuel Epenow, gave me one more reason to get this done. My advisor, James Axtell, has been wonderful to work for. His comments on each draft have been encouraging, incisive, and exhaustive. His own scholarship has served as a model o f deep research, careful thought, and graceful writing. Somewhere on this long road, he and went from being advisor and advisee to sharing a friendship, and for that especially I am grateful. The members o f my dissertation committee were uniformly terrific. James Ronda had wonderful comments and corrections for many of the chapters. Carroll Sheriff and James Whittenberg, insisted that I explain my methods to those who do not practice ethnohistory. And Scott Nelson tried to offer catchy alternatives to my leaden chapter titles. Their comments improved the quality o f this work. My colleagues at Missouri Southern State College have been more than supportive. Tom Simpson, Virginia Laas, James Geier, Paul Teverow, Bill Tannenbaum, Cindi Spencer and Robert Markman in particular offered friendship, advice, and sometimes cold beer. I also want to thank my department chair, Richard Miller, and the administration for helpfully pointing out that they would in fact fire me if I did not finish this dissertation. This proved motivating. Many o f my friends and colleagues at Eastern Washington University deserve special thanks. J. William T. Youngs has been a friend and mentor for so long that I can hardly recall life without him. Claude Nichols helped spark my interest in western history in the first place. Archivist Charlie Mutschler retrieved many hundreds of books and manuscripts for me over the years, and offered much encouragement. John Alan Ross brought his terrific knowledge o f traditional Plateau life to a close reading of the first chapter. Bruce Hallmark served as a patient and critical sounding board for many of my ideas, and shared his research on disease epidemics with me. Virginia Adsit offered all sorts o f administrative support. I especially want to thank Mike Green and Dick Donley, who taught me the fine points o f historical analysis and the rudiments o f elk hunting. I hope that in these pages I have proven better at the former than I did at the latter. iv Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. ABSTRACT This study is an ethnohistorical examination o f Indian religious responses to contact with Euroamericans on the Columbia Plateau, from 1600 to 1850. Plateau natives understood their encounter with European civilization primarily as a momentous spiritual event, and sought new sources o f spiritual power to cope with their rapidly changing world. White people seemed to the Indians to have an abundance of spirit power, and many native religious efforts were aimed at capturing some of this power for themselves. These efforts included the protohistoric Prophet Dance, the syncretic "Columbian Religion" o f the fiir trade era, and the initial enthusiastic response to the first Christian missionaries on the Plateau. Each o f these attempts was marked by great enthusiasm at first, and each was abandoned with bitter disappointment as the material condition of the natives worsened. By 1850, most Indians had abandoned the idea that the spirit power of the white people could ever be accessed by themselves, and new religious impulses took the form o f nativist movements which sought to purge the natives o f white influences. Because both Roman Catholic and Protestant missionaries were active on the Plateau, I also compare the conversion efforts of the two faiths. To native eyes, the cultural flexibility, language skills, impressive ceremonies, and superior organizational structure o f the Catholics compared favorably to the stem and incomprehensible doctrines o f the Protestants. But in both cases most Indians accepted Christian doctrines only as a supplement, and not as a replacement of native beliefs. True converts proved rare before the reservation period. v Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission.

Introduction Joe Meek knew how to hang an Indian. The recently appointed Marshall of Oregon knew as much about the natives as any man in the territory. As a mountain man he had lived among Indians for most of his adult life. Meek traded with Indians, he played their games, shared their prayers, wintered in their lodges, and had taken not one but two native wives. He had killed Indians as well—sometimes as a member of a native war party, sometimes in self-defense, and sometimes for the fun and frivolity of killing. But as the fur trade faded in the 1840s, Meek abandoned the free life of the mountains and moved to the Willamette Valley to try his hand at farming. When the burgeoning American settlement there needed a law officer, Meek was only too glad to exchange his plow for a badge. As he climbed the gallows that day in 1850, Meek was turning his back on his old way of life and returning to the fold of American civilization.1 The Indians knew they would hang.

It focusses on a single province – Alberta – and utilizes an inter-disciplinary approach to understand how the interaction between the biological and the psychosocial conditions of the schools contributed to both immediate and chronic health problems for Aboriginal students. Through an examination of nutrition, sanitation, disease, healthcare interventions, and mental health in the schools, it is seen that any “progress” the Department made in regards to the health of students was circular.

    “VIEWPOINTS” ON RECONCILIATION: INDIGENOUS PERSPECTIVES FOR POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION IN THE SOUTHERN INTERIOR OF BC 2020 Project Synopsis By Christopher Horsethief, PhD, Dallas Good Water, MA, Harron Hall, BA, Jessica Morin, MA, Michele Morin, BSW, Roy Pogorzelski, MA September 1, 2020 Research Funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Executive Summary This research project synopsis presents diverse Indigenous community perspectives regarding the efforts needed to enable systemic change toward reconciliation within a public post-secondary educational institution in the Southern Interior of British Columbia. The main research question for this project was “How does a community college respectfully engage in reconciliation through education with the First Nations and Métis communities in the traditional territories in which it operates?” This research was realized by a team of six Indigenous researchers, representing distinct Indigenous groups within the region. It offers Indigenous perspectives, insights, and recommendations that can help guide post-secondary education toward systemic change. This research project was Indigenous led within an Indigenous research paradigm and done in collaboration with multiple communities throughout the Southern Interior region of British Columbia. Keywords: Indigenous-led research, Indigenous research methodologies, truth and reconciliation, Indigenous education, decolonization, systemic change, public post- secondary education in BC, Southern Interior of BC ii Acknowledgements This research was made possible through funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada. The important contributions from the Sinixt, Ktunaxa, Syilx, and Métis Elders, Knowledge Keepers, youth, men, and women within this project are essential to restoring important aspects of education that have been largely omitted from the public education system.

    suCENTENjI REV. A. F.VALLER. 1q84. 4( 4 >)) 1834. A TEN NIAL toTIlE 1\4EMI3ERS AND FRIENDS OF TIIR Methodist Episcopal Church, SALEN'L. OREGON. NIRS. \V. H. ODELL. "Hitherto the Lord hat/i helped US." INTRODUCTION. HE year of grace A.D. l8S-, was not only the Centennialyear of the Methodist Episcopal Church, but the semi-centennial of the work of the same church in Oregon. In the year 1834 Jason Lee organized, near where the city of Salem now stands, the first Protestant mission west of the Rockies. The WillametteUniversity and the church in Salem are twin children of that mission.Like Chang and Eng their lives are inseparable. In that centennial, and semi-centennial, period, after a struggle of many years, as narrated in these pages, the Salem M. E. Church became free from debt.The writer of this "Introduction" being at that time pastor thereof, found hiniself making this inquiry: How can we best set up a memorial of this glad consummation, which shall at once express our gratitude to Him who has brought deliver- ance to our Israel, and also keep the memory thereof fresh in the minds of our children and successors? This little volume is sent out as a suitable answer to that question. In casting about to find some one who could be safely entrusted with its preparation, my thought turned toward Mrs. Gen. W. H. Odell, who reluctantly but kindly consented to undertake the task. This accomplished lady whose former husband, Hon. Samuel R. Thurston, was the first delegate to Congress from the Territory of Oregon, and who herself was early, and for some time, a teacher in the "Oregon Institute," as the Willamette University was then called, brought rare qualifications to this undertaking.Jier work which has been done con am ore, will be useful long after she has entered the pearly gates.
