\n\t\t\t\t\tR. Gregory Nokes is the author of \u201cThe Troubled Life of Peter Burnett: Oregon Pioneer and First Governor of California<\/a>,\u201d published by Oregon State University Press, gregnokes.com<\/a>. He wrote this commentary for CALmatters.\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

In his apology for California\u2019s genocidal treatment<\/a> of Native Americans, Gov. Gavin Newsom focused attention<\/a> on the state\u2019s nearly forgotten first elected governor, Peter Hardeman Burnett, and his declaration in 1851 that Indians would be exterminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Gov. Newsom reported, Burnett infamously predicted to the 1851 Legislature: \u201cThat a war of extermination will continue to be waged between the races until the Indian race becomes extinct must be expected \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a writer of West Coast history, I became fascinated by Burnett and his little-known role in briefly allowing slavery while in Oregon and promoting exclusion laws against blacks in both Oregon and California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I learned that throughout his political career, Burnett clung to a bizarre and deadly fantasy that the American West would be populated almost exclusively by whites. In Burnett\u2019s vision, there would be no blacks, no Chinese and no Native Americans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Burnett\u2019s attitudes toward race no doubt were shaped in part by his family background. He was born in Nashville, Tenn., in 1807 and married into a slave-owning family. He owned two slaves in Missouri, and may have brought one of them to Oregon in 1843.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While a merchant in Tennessee, Burnett was responsible for the fatal shooting of a black slave who allegedly broke into his store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the one negative encounter with Native Americans mentioned in his autobiography, \u201cReminiscenses of an Old Pioneer,\u201d he blamed Indians for setting a fire that destroyed his father\u2019s farm wagon in Missouri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1843, Burnett was one of the organizers and the first captain of the wagon train that brought nearly a thousand settlers from Missouri to Oregon in what became known as \u2018\u201dThe Great Migration.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He soon entered politics in Oregon, serving on the first elected legislature. Under his leadership, the Oregon Legislature enacted a law that excluded African-Americans. That law said African-Americans who refused to leave would face a severe lashing. Cooler heads soon overturned the Oregon law. A self-taught lawyer, he also served as the first supreme court judge of the provisional government of Oregon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In November 1848, Burnett joined the gold rush to California, but soon tired of mining, and befriended and worked with John Sutter Jr. to help establish the city of Sacramento, making a great deal of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within just 12 months, on Nov. 13, 1849, he was elected governor over four other candidates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He evidently was instantly likable and persuasive, and wrote extensively for California newspapers, promoting civilian government for California. It didn\u2019t hurt his political appeal he was also blessed with good looks. In his official portrait in the California State Capitol, he bears a resemblance to the late actor Paul Newman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As governor, Burnett tried but failed to impose an Oregon-style law that would have excluded African-Americans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also sought to exclude Chinese immigrants because he believed they were better businessmen and workers than whites, and would dominate the economy, and later supported the federal 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act, which all but shut down Chinese immigration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it was California\u2019s native tribes who suffered the most from Burnett\u2019s attitudes and policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In calling for the establishment of week a \u201cTruth and Healing Council\u2019\u2019 to investigate past abuses of California\u2019s tribes, Newsom cited Burnett\u2019s extermination prediction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The genocide against California Indians neither started nor ended with Burnett. But some of the worst massacres of the native population occurred while he was in office. And he signed the deviously named 1850 \u201cAct for the Government and Protection of Indians\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That became a convenient cover for seizing Indian lands, disrupting families and forcing many into involuntary servitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Article 2 of that law said: \u201cPersons and proprietors of land on which Indians are residing, shall permit such Indians peaceably to reside on such lands.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, former Indian lands were legally controlled by whites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Article 3 set out circumstances under which a Caucasian could take custody of a native child\u2014until age 18 for males, and 15 for females.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As settlers and miners poured into California, moving onto traditional tribal lands, Indians not surprisingly responded by attacking them. Whites retaliated, frequently much more savagely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Burnett twice ordered the state militia to respond to attacks, once at a ferry crossing near the confluence of the Gila and Colorado rivers in April 1850, and again near Ringgold in El Dorado County in October 1850. He urged communities to use poorly trained local militias to respond to attacks, with predictably bloody results and little if any accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The worst of the conflicts during Burnett\u2019s time in office was the so-called Bloody Island Massacre in May of 1850 in which about 75 U.S soldiers staged a retaliatory strike on several hundred probably innocent members of the Pomo tribe at Clear Lake in Lake County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Estimates of the number of Pomo dead\u2014men, women and children\u2014ranged from 60 to several hundred. The massacre was described in the following account in the Daily Alta California of May 28, 1850:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe troops arrived in the vicinity of the lake, and came unexpectedly upon a body of Indians numbering between two and three hundred. They immediately surrounded them and as the Indians raised a shout of defiance and attempted escape, poured in a destructive fire indiscriminately upon men, women and children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018They fell,\u2019 says our informant, \u2018as grass before the sweep of the scythe.\u2019 Little or no resistance was encountered, and the work of butchery was of short duration. The shrieks of the slaughtered victims died away . . . and stretched lifeless upon the sod of their native valley were the bleeding bodies of these Indians\u2014[n]or sex, nor age was spared; it was the order of extermination fearfully obeyed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Burnett\u2019s official correspondence mentions some conflicts, but the Bloody Island Massacre is not among them, although he must have known about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Burnett\u2019s term in office lasted just 13 months. He resigned on Jan. 9, 1851 after being ridiculed for such unacceptable proposals as demanding an exclusion law against blacks and promoting capital punishment for robbery and second degree larceny. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was widely deemed by California\u2019s press as ineffective. But his time in public life was not over. In 1857, Gov. J. Neely Johnson appointed Burnett to fill an unexpired term on the California Supreme Court, and he was elected again the following year, his transgressions as governor evidently forgotten<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1858, while serving on the California Supreme Court, he was once again ridiculed for ordering a former slave named Archy Lee to be returned to his former Mississippi owner even though Lee had been living in California, a free state. His ruling was blocked by another court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Burnett\u2019s racism, along with several tone-deaf blunders, explains why he was, until recently, largely forgotten by history. He was an embarrassment. Many of the few schools that took his name as the first governor have changed their names as his policies have become known; among them is the former Burnett Academy in San Jose, the city where Burnett and his family settled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He died in relative obscurity in 1897. Now, in 2019, Burnett is becoming known again, though surely not for reasons he would welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
