- Description:
- The sender of the letter is updating the recipient, Frank V. Shaw, on his opposition to the Basone resolution regarding Indian affairs. He believes it is not the best approach and instead supports a resolution by Congressman Frank T. Bow that would place the study and investigation of Indians under government supervision. The sender also discusses the financial situation of the Osage tribe and their willingness to take care of their own expenses, which may impact the decision to keep them under federal supervision. Overall, the sender advocates for a more practical and businesslike approach to handling Indian affairs.
