  • “Sent out by Our Great Father”
    “Sent Out By Our Great Father” Zebulon Montgomery Pike’s Journal and Route Across Kansas, 1806 edited by Leo E. Oliva ebulon Montgomery Pike, a lieutenant in the First U.S. Infantry, led an exploring expe- dition in search of the source of the Mississippi River in 1805–1806. Soon after his return to St. Louis in July 1806, General James Wilkinson sent Lieutenant Pike, promoted to cap- tain a few weeks later, to explore the southwestern portion of the Louisiana Purchase, de- parting from the military post of Belle Fontaine near St. Louis on July 15, 1806. His expedition began as Meriwether Lewis and William Clark were nearing completion of their two-year expedition up the Missouri River and across the mountains to the Pacific Ocean and back. Pike crossed present Mis- Zsouri, most of the way by boat on the Missouri and Osage Rivers, where he delivered fifty-one mem- bers of the Osage tribe to the village of the Grand Osage in late August. On September 3 Pike entered present Kansas at the end of the day. His command, including Lieutenant James B. Wilkinson (son of General Wilkinson), Dr. John H. Robinson (civilian surgeon accompanying the ex- pedition), interpreter Antoine François “Baronet” Vásquez (called Baroney in the journal), and eighteen en- listed men, was accompanied by several Osages and two Pawnees as guides. Because of bad feelings between the Osage and Kansa Indians, some of Pike’s Osage guides turned back, and those who continued led his party a Leo E. Oliva, a native Kansan and a former university professor, became interested in frontier military history during the centennial celebration of the founding of Fort Larned in 1959 and has been researching and writing about the frontier army ever since.

  • Sahnish (Arikara) Ethnobotany
    Kindscher, L. Yellow Bird, M. Yellow Bird & Sutton Yellow M. Bird, Yellow L. Kindscher, Sahnish (Arikara) Ethnobotany This book describes the traditional use of wild plants among the Arikara (Sahnish) for food, medicine, craft, and other uses. The Arikara grew corn, hunted and foraged, and traded with other tribes in the northern Great Plains. Their villages were located along the Sahnish (Arikara) Missouri River in northern South Dakota and North Dakota. Today, many of them live at Fort Berthold Reservation, North Dakota, as part of the MHA (Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara) Ethnobotany Nation. We document the use of 106 species from 31 plant families, based primarily on the work of Melvin Gilmore, who recorded Arikara ethnobotany from 1916 to 1935. Gilmore interviewed elders for their stories and accounts of traditional plant use, collected material goods, and wrote a draft manuscript, but was not able to complete it due to debilitating illness. Fortunately, his field notes, manuscripts, and papers were archived and form the core of the present volume. Gilmore’s detailed description is augmented here with historical accounts of the Arikara gleaned from the journals of Great Plains explorers—Lewis and Clark, John Bradbury, Pierre Tabeau, and others. Additional plant uses and nomenclature is based on the field notes of linguist Douglas R. Parks, who carried out detailed documentation of the Sahnish (Arikara) Ethnobotany tribe’s language from 1970–2001. Although based on these historical sources, the present volume features updated modern botanical nomenclature, contemporary spelling and interpretation of Arikara plant names, and color photographs and range maps of each species.

  • Streamflow Depletion Investigations in the Republican River Basin: Colorado, Nebraska, and Kansas
    J. ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS, Vol. 27(3) 251-263, 1999 STREAMFLOW DEPLETION INVESTIGATIONS IN THE REPUBLICAN RIVER BASIN: COLORADO, NEBRASKA, AND KANSAS JOZSEF SZILAGYI University of Nebraska–Lincoln ABSTRACT Water is a critical resource in the Great Plains. This study examines the changes in long-term mean annual streamflow in the Republican River basin. In the past decades this basin, shared by three states, Colorado, Nebraska, and Kansas, displayed decreased streamflow volumes as the river enters Kansas across the Nebraska-Kansas border compared to values preceding the 1950s. A recent lawsuit filed by Kansas challenges water appropriations in Nebraska. More than half of the source area for this water, however, lies outside of Nebraska. Today a higher percentage of the annual flow is generated within Nebraska (i.e., 75% of the observed mean annual stream- flow at the NE-KS border) than before the 1950s (i.e., 66% of the observed mean annual streamflow) indicating annual streamflow has decreased more dramatically outside of Nebraska than within the state in the past fifty years. INTRODUCTION The Republican River basin’s 64,796 km2 drainage area is shared by three states: Colorado, Nebraska, and Kansas (see Figure 1). Nebraska has the largest single share of the drainage area, 25,154 km2 (39% of total); Colorado can claim about 20,000 km2 (31%), while the rest, about 19,583 km2 (30%), belongs to Kansas [1], from which about 12,800 km2 (20%) lies upstream of Hardy, near the Nebraska-Kansas border. Exact figures for the contributing drainage areas (portions of the drainage areas that actually contribute water to the stream) are hard to obtain because these areas in the headwater sections of the basin have been shrinking constantly in the past fifty years.

Box 470 U.S. POSTAGE Pawnee, OK 74058 PAID PERMIT NO. 43 RETURN SERVICE REQUESTED PAWNEE, OK 74058 Page 2 Chaticks si Chaticks -October 2009- Message from the President Dear Pawnee Tribal Members: Take a look at the building going up at the Pawnee Nation Travel Plaza! Many have told me that as they drive by and see the structure developing, they feel proud. At long last the Pawnee Nation is stepping into the competitive arena of the casino and gaming business. Like it or not, the casino business for many American Indian tribes across the country has provided an economic advantage. We have lost three (3) years, plus $300,000,000 in the debacle of a few years. We had to work hard to prove our mettle to now skeptical lending agencies that we are an internally and structurally sound tribal organization of note. We are Pawnee and can make this business and its resulting products work to our advantage. We recognize the efforts of every member of the Tribal Development Cooperation (TDC) on this project. Each person on TDC had a hand in making this project a reality. This effort is a result of dogged TDC teamwork. My only regret at this point is that Les Hand, late Pawnee Business Council Treasurer, is not here to see the fruit of his work while on TDC. He is not here, but he sees it. The structure being built is 10,000 square feet and will accommodate 200 gaming machines and a 70 seating capacity steak house.
