Phillips Pamphlets Collection

Phillips Pamphlet Collection. Printed materials, 1820–1978. 8 feet. Pamphlet collection. Pamphlets (1820–1978) containing information on U.S. government- tribal relations, and U.S. government Indian policy. Materials include memorials from Indian delegations concerning allotment, land transfer, and per capita payments; tribal agreements with the Dawes Commission; annual messages of Indian nations; legal cases argued before the Oklahoma Supreme Court and the U.S. Supreme Court; and annual reports of the Board of Indian Commissioners. Other pamphlets concern Oklahoma statehood, mining and oil and gas rights on Indian lands, railroads in Indian Territory, and claims of Old Settler Cherokees. ______

This collection of documents began in November of 1927. Frank Phillips established a special account in a Bartlesville, Oklahoma bank to provide the funds necessary for purchase of those items. E.E. Dale, with later assistance from Morris L. Wardell, made all of the purchases from various book dealers. Each item that he purchased was logged into a ledger book and the entry number in the ledger was assigned as the identification number for each item. For example, the forty-sixth item purchased, James B. Finley’s Life among the Indians, was marked “46” to correspond with the ledger entry. Through the years many of these items were catalogued and placed in the regular stacks of the Western History Collections with other books. Others have been interfiled in the reprint files and in the government documents section of the WHC. This fact accounts for the large gaps in the numeric sequence of the documents listed in this guide. However, many of the items were not catalogued and were unavailable for use by researchers. This guide provides access to those uncataloged documents. All documents are arranged in numeric order. What follows is a listing of these materials and a subject index. Each entry gives the number, author, title, date, and a brief description of the document, (if the name does not indicate content). At the end of some entries any duplicates existing elsewhere in this collection are listed.

SAMPLE ENTRY:

2755.54. Bushyhead, D.W. Message of the Cherokee Delegation to the Congress of the U.S. n.d. (expresses opposition to allotment.) (6810.2, 7213)

The subject index has been written using standard entries from the Library of Congress Subject Headings guide. There are some minor exceptions. Virtually every document has two or more subject entries. This should facilitate finding and offer the broadest approach when searching for specific topics.
