The Winnebago Indians and Civilizing Efforts
The Mankato Independent argues that current efforts to civilize and Christianize the Winnebago on a nearby reservation will fail. It criticizes government provisions as encouraging idleness, notes the tribe's size about two thousand, and lists annuities for money, goods, provisions, salt, tobacco, education, improvements, agriculture, medicine, and crafts. It also cites mixed outcomes from youth-trained members who now rank among the tribe's most degraded moral figures.
