    Ezra’s Archives | 27 From Warfare to World Fair: The Ideological Commodification of Geronimo in the Late Nineteenth and Early Twentieth-Century United States Kai Parmenter A Brief History: Geronimo and the Chiricahua Apaches Of all the Native American groups caught in the physical and ideological appropriations of expansionist-minded Anglo-Americans in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the Apache are often framed by historiographical and visual sources as distinct from their neighboring bands and tribes.1 Unlike their Arizona contemporaries the Navajo and the Hopi, who were ultimately relegated to mythical status as domesticated savage and artistic curiosity, the Apache have been primarily defined by their resistance to Anglo-American subjugation in what came to be known as the Apache Wars. This conflict between the Apache bands of southeastern Arizona and northern Mexico—notably the Chiricahua, the primary focus of this study—and the United States Army is loosely defined as the period between the conclusion of the Mexican-American War in 1848 and the final surrender of Geronimo and Naiche to General Nelson A. Miles in September 1886. Historian Frederick W. Turner, who published a revised and annotated edition of Geronimo’s 1906 oral autobiography, 1 The terms “Anglo-American,” “Euro-American” and “white American” are used interchangeably throughout the piece as a means of avoiding the monotony of repetitious diction. The same may be applied to Geronimo, herein occasionally referred to as “infamous Chiricahua,” “Bedonkohe leader,” etc. 28 | The Ideological Commodification of Geronimo in the Late Nineteenth and Early Twentieth-Century United States notes that early contact between the Chiricahua and white Americans was at that point friendly, “probably because neither represented a threat to the other.”2 Yet the United States’ sizable land acquisitions following the Mexican-American War, coupled with President James K.

Box 207 Pearce, Arizona 85625 2 THE LIFE AND TIMES OF WYATT EARP by John D. Gilchriese Field Historian, University of Arizona On March 19, 1848 a seemingly unimportant event took place in Monmouth, Warren County, Illinois. Although nearly totally unnoticed at the time, the birth of Wyatt Berry Stapp Earp would prove significant to countless individuals interested in the history of the post Civil War, trans-Mississippi West. His name has become commonplace to serious historians and an army of fictioneers alike. Yet, history shows that this man spent little actual time in Mon­ mouth. Just two years after his birth, the Earp family migrated to Pella, in southeastern Iowa. On the beautiful rolling prairies sur­ rounding this small agricultural town, Wyatt Earp grew to manhood. Due to the rigid insistence of his father, Nicholas Porter Earp, Wyatt, his brothers and sisters received a two-fold education. For the sons this included not only classroom studies, but a knowledge of several trades as well. Farm work, however, never appealed to Wyatt who as a small boy craved the more adventurous pursuits of hunting and exploring the local Iowa countryside.

Our father had done some shooting in his youth and passed the interest on to us. From time to time Steve would bring home things that only served to stoke the fires of my curiosity. An empty dark green pasteboard box that once held Director Of Civilian Marksmanship issued Remington Kleenbore, a few expended cartridge cases, or a tattered target were like trash to some, but to me they were the wonders of Aladdin's cave. The real treasure was the tattered copies of The American Rifleman Magazine that Coach George Gregory would allow members to check out for a few days. After reading it, my brother would allow me a look. I recall having to do his turn at raking leaves, taking out the trash, and other household chores to earn the right to peek between the pages. I was even roundly thrashed after he discovered a glob of peanut butter and jelly that had escaped from my afternoon snack to sully the pages of the magazine, or at least that was the excuse he used for that particular beating.

  • Charles G. Dawes Archive
    Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections Northwestern University Library, Evanston, Illinois 60208-2300 Charles G. Dawes Archive Biography: Charles Gates Dawes (1865-1951), prominent in U.S. politics and business, served as Comptroller of the Currency (1898-1901), director of the Military Board of Allied Supply (1918-1919), and first director of the Bureau of the Budget (1921). He received a Nobel Peace Prize as chairman of the Reparations Commission which restructured Germany's economy and devised a repayment plan (1924). He was elected Vice-President (1925- 1929), and appointed ambassador to England (1929-1931) and chairman of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation (1932). Charles and his brothers founded Dawes Brothers Incorporated. Dawes formed the Central Trust Co. in Chicago (1902), guided its successor banks, and was influential in Chicago business, politics, and philanthropy until his death. Charles Gates Dawes was born and educated in Ohio. He married Caro Blymyer in 1889, practiced law, and incorporated a real estate business in Lincoln, Nebraska, before moving to Evanston, Illinois in 1895. He acquired utility companies and real estate in northern Illinois and Wisconsin; and in 1908, with his brothers Henry, Rufus, and Beman, formed Dawes Brothers Incorporated, to invest assets in banks, oil companies and real estate throughout the country. Various acquaintances who were prominent in political and industrial affairs trusted them to manage their investments as well. Other companies in which Charles Dawes and his brothers played leading roles included Chicago's Central Trust Co. and its successor banks and Pure Oil Company of Ohio. Dawes made significant philanthropic contributions to the Chicago metropolitan community.

  • The Apache Scouts at Cibecue Mark Schock
    26 The Force of Evil Circumstances: The Apache Scouts at Cibecue Mark Schock Led from their cells to the waiting gallows, the three Apache scouts walked past the assembled witnesses: three troops of cavalry, a single infantry company, and two companies of their fellow Indian scouts.1 Upon surrendering themselves they had protested their innocence, but were now resigned to their fate. They refused to beg for their lives. That would not be the Apache way. Addressing the onlookers for a last statement, one stated that to beg would only bring laughter and ridicule.2 The three men had served as American soldiers, but this day they would die like true Apache warriors. Decisions made by their U.S. governmental and military masters had conspired to put them in a situation that ultimately challenged their allegiance to their tribal, familial, and religious loyalties. In attempting to serve two diametrically opposed masters, they had been thrust into a maelstrom of circumstances which forced them to choose one master or the other. The helplessness of their position and their corresponding decision contributed to a disaster not of their own making, and these three men would pay the steepest price for the ensuing debacle at Cibecue Creek. From the beginning it was an event misreported, misinterpreted, and misunderstood. Its execution and reportage suffered from bad planning and bad timing. What was first reported as a military disaster on the scale of Custer's defeat at the little Bighorn evolved into an event involving a much smaller casualty list, still a military defeat, but multiplied in scope by the element of alleged treachery on a large scale.
