SCHUSKY* To many people the term "Indian Agency" is synonymous with Indian reservation. Indians themselves interchange the words. Thus, it might be assumed that reservations have a long existence because "agencies" appeared fairly early in the government's con­ tact with Indians, and it might be further assumed that "reservation policy" must be well thought out because of its long existence. An examination of the history of one agency illustrates how mistaken these assumptions are. The history of the Upper Missouri Agency indicates that agencies were established primarily as an extension of Congress' right to regulate trade with the Indian tribes, the Constitution's only reference to Indians. Secondarily, the govern­ ment hoped to maintain peace on the frontier, but with a minimum *Ernest L. Schusky received his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. He is currently a professor of Anthropology at Southern Illinois University, Edwards- ville. 249 Benjamin O'Fallon Hist. Sites of Jefferson Co. of expenditure or effort.1 Reservations, for the most part, were later established around the agencies, but they resulted from a policy of white expansion and a major effort toward federal acquisition of land. The effects of reservation life on Indians were hardly con­ sidered; indeed, reservation policy had simply grown with no systematic thought about the consequences. Although the reserva­ tion had its conception in the agency, the offspring is quite different from the parent; the Upper Missouri Agency illustrates, in some measure, how these differences grew. The Upper Missouri Agency was authorized by an Act of Congress on March 3, 1819, that designated the annual salary of the agent.2 William Clark, the regional superintendent for most of the Northwest, was so occupied with events on the Upper Missis­ sippi that it was some time before an agent could be appointed and assume duties near Council Bluffs. The responsibility for the Upper Missouri Agency initially rested in the hands of agent Benjamin O'Fallon who reported to Superintendent Clark in St. Louis. In turn, Clark reported to Secretary John C. Calhoun. Poli­ tics and patronage resulted in a fairly rapid turnover of agents, but Clark served as superintendent for a vast area of frontier until his death in 1839. It is difficult to determine the character of the early agents or fully understand their attitude toward Indians.

The Upper Missouri Indian Agency 251 of the agents served more than two years, and often they fulfilled their duties in the summer months. None of them showed any great affinity for Indians. Their correspondence frequently justifies trips to St. Louis or the East. For example, one of O'Fallon's first letters on record was a request for a leave of absence even though he recognized a paternalistic obligation. He begged leave "knowing that absence from my station will produce much disappointment to my charges, and greatly interferes in progressing in improving the character and disposition of my Indians which I had flattered myself I had much improved but much was left to be done."3 Actually, the government seemed more anxious to simply keep the peace and promote the fur trade. Army commanders, who could not frequently leave their posts, as did the agents, reported regularly to the Secretary of War on the condition of the tribes. These men often shouldered the responsibilities of an absent agent in making peace. The lack of any physical facilities for the Upper Missouri Agency indicates its priority. The agent was assumed to reside at Council Bluffs with the army. Agent O'Fallon was soon joined by two sub-agents, but for a long time the three men maneuvered to spend much time at Fort Leavenworth, St. Louis, Washington or even their home towns as far away as Virginia and Pennsylvania. The initial zeal of agents sometimes lasted as much as a year, but Dakota winters were discouraging, a lack of quarters brought an embarrassing dependence on the army or fur traders, and life was lonely. Early in 1826 O'Fallon resigned his position for reasons of health. In his long correspondence he enumerated the difficulties of life while fulfilling bureaucratic obligations, but rarely did he mention Indians.

  • Guide to Oral History Collections in Missouri
    Guide to Oral History Collections in Missouri. Compiled and Edited by David E. Richards Special Collections & Archives Department Duane G. Meyer Library Missouri State University Springfield, Missouri Last updated: September 16, 2012 This guide was made possible through a grant from the Richard S. Brownlee Fund from the State Historical Society of Missouri and support from Missouri State University. Introduction Missouri has a wealth of oral history recordings that document the rich and diverse population of the state. Beginning around 1976, libraries, archives, individual researchers, and local historical societies initiated oral history projects and began recording interviews on audio cassettes. The efforts continued into the 1980s. By 2000, digital recorders began replacing audio cassettes and collections continued to grow where staff, time, and funding permitted. As with other states, oral history projects were easily started, but transcription and indexing efforts generally lagged behind. Hundreds of recordings existed for dozens of discreet projects, but access to the recordings was lacking or insufficient. Larger institutions had the means to transcribe, index, and catalog their oral history materials, but smaller operations sometimes had limited access to their holdings. Access was mixed, and still is. This guide attempts to aggregate nearly all oral history holdings within the state and provide at least basic, minimal access to holdings from the largest academic repository to the smallest county historical society. The effort to provide a guide to the oral history collections of Missouri started in 2002 with a Brownlee Fund Grant from the State Historical Society of Missouri. That initial grant provided the seed money to create and send out a mail-in survey.

  • Beautiful and Damned: Geographies of Interwar Kansas City by Lance
    Beautiful and Damned: Geographies of Interwar Kansas City By Lance Russell Owen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Michael Johns, Chair Professor Paul Groth Professor Margaret Crawford Professor Louise Mozingo Fall 2016 Abstract Beautiful and Damned: Geographies of Interwar Kansas City by Lance Russell Owen Doctor of Philosophy in Geography University of California, Berkeley Professor Michael Johns, Chair Between the World Wars, Kansas City, Missouri, achieved what no American city ever had, earning a Janus-faced reputation as America’s most beautiful and most corrupt and crime-ridden city. Delving into politics, architecture, social life, and artistic production, this dissertation explores the geographic realities of this peculiar identity. It illuminates the contours of the city’s two figurative territories: the corrupt and violent urban core presided over by political boss Tom Pendergast, and the pristine suburban world shaped by developer J. C. Nichols. It considers the ways in which these seemingly divergent regimes in fact shaped together the city’s most iconic features—its Country Club District and Plaza, a unique brand of jazz, a seemingly sophisticated aesthetic legacy written in boulevards and fine art, and a landscape of vice whose relative scale was unrivalled by that of any other American city. Finally, it elucidates the reality that, by sustaining these two worlds in one metropolis, America’s heartland city also sowed the seeds of its own destruction; with its cultural economy tied to political corruption and organized crime, its pristine suburban fabric woven from prejudice and exclusion, and its aspirations for urban greatness weighed down by provincial mindsets and mannerisms, Kansas City’s time in the limelight would be short lived.
