Federal supervision follows Curtis bill in Indian schools
The Chieftain warns that the Curtis plan shifts tribal school control to the federal government, abolishing tribal boards, with funds still provided by tribes. It argues reforms aim to curb abuses but cites examples of poor math and Latin education, uneven textbook use, and widespread book company exploitation.

Dutch Bill Greiffenstein and early Wichita frontier life
The reminiscence recalls William Greiffenstein known as Dutch Bill in the Chickasaw nation. Friends like William Chouteau chart his trading on plains, marriages to Cheyenne Jennie and a Pottawatomie wife, and his influence around Wichita, the Little Arkansas mouth, and Wichita and Caddo camps. The tale spans trading, diplomacy, and land-hunting with Shawnee allies guiding later moves toward Deep Fork and Creek country, noting a dry spring at Cornatzer and changing times.
