When established, 22 May, 1877, it comprised the State of Kansas, U. S. A., with the Right Rev. Louis Mary Fink, O.S.B. as its first bishop. At his request, ten years later the Holy See divided the diocese into three: Wichita, Concordia, and Leavenworth. Leavenworth was then restricted to the 43 counties lying east of Republic, Cloud, Ottawa, Saline McPherson, Harvey, Sedgwick and Sumner Counties. The diocese had an area of 28,687 sq. m., with a total population in 1890, of 901,536. Authorized by the Holy See , Bishop Fink on 29 May, 1891, took up his residence in Kansas City, Kans., and the diocese was named after this city for some years. Apostolic letters dated 1 July, 1897, further diminished the territory of the diocese in favour of Concordia and Wichita. It now includes only the Counties of Anderson, Osage, Pottawatomie, Shawnee Wabaunsee, Wyandotte, Jackson, Jefferson, Linn, Lyon, Marshall, Miami, Nemaha, Atchison, Brown, Coffey, Doniphan, Douglas, Franklin, Johnson, and Leavenworth; an area of 12,594 sq. miles. The first missionary to the wild Indians of the plains, within the present borders of Kansas, was Father Juan de Padilla. He obtained the martyr's crown just fifty years after

Extractions: WHERE DID INDIAN MASCOTS COME FROM? In the mid 19th century a movement to retrain Indians in the image of European Americans was started. It was predicated on beliefs that Native Americans could be made human by separating children from their family, culture and heritage at an early age, pressed into training camps and "reeducated" with hard labor and discipline. Central to this philosophy was the belief that Native Americans were not really human beings but could adopt enough outward mannerisms of European Americans that they could function in roles delineated for them by whites. Well known for his supervision of Indian prisons in Florida, Captain Richard Henry Pratt was selected to head the most famous of boarding schools at Carlisle, Pennsylvania. He continued the principles he learned while overseeing inmates at his school for children. His motto was, "Kill the Indian, save the man." The cemetery at the school will attest to the results of his methods for some inmates. In the model established by Captain Pratt boarding schools erupted all over the continent. They became a lucrative economic adventure for churches who received free Indian labor, government subsidies and cheap help from young men and women filled with missionary zeal to live and work the boarding schools. Primary to the operating principals of these institutions was to fashion Native children after a model conceived by whites who viewed them as flawed but curious creations. No matter the endeavor new roles were forced upon Indigenous captives fashioned in all manner of vision springing from European Americans who fundamentally believed Native People to be their inferiors. Native children were trained to serve whites, white interests, white society and entertain whites. At worst they were slaves at best they were mascots but they always were subordinated to whites.

Extractions: The paper discusses the Indian boarding schools that represent an early attempt to subjugate the Native American culture. The author believes that the schools disappeared due to reports of mistreatment of the children and financial concerns. The author states that the schools should serve as a reminder that our nation has learned much about cultural diversity. "Boarding schools first became vogue prior to the American Civil War. During this time, idealistic reformers put forth the idea that Indians could become "civilized" with the proper education and treatment. Prior to this time, most white Americans had seen the American Indian population with great fear. Captain Richard Henry Pratt was one of the leading proponents of this movement and believed that he could "kill the Indian and save the man."

Extractions: By Rebecca Martin A monthly series from the Kansas State Historical Society Years ago, someone painted a red cross on a wall inside the Potawatomi Mission in Topeka. Although we may never know who drew that cross, the artist may have been a Potawatomi student at the mission's boarding school here in 1850, or a child playing in the building when it was used as a barn in 1950. Today the faded red cross is preserved by the Kansas State Historical Society in the original stone mission building, built in 1848. Located on the grounds of the Society's new Kansas History Center in Topeka, the mission is open to the public as the Koch Industries Education Center. It contains both hands-on and interpretive exhibits on the history of the Potawatomi and Indian missions in Kansas. The red cross is more than a symbol of Christian faith to staff working on the project. It also represents the mysteries surrounding the Potawatomi children who lived at the school. It is difficult to tell the mission's story from the children's viewpoint because they left no written records. Records of the white missionaries also are incomplete. Further complicating the matter is the complex history of Native Americans in the United States. As with most tribes, the Potawatomi have a complicated past after they came into contact with white settlers.

State Normal School Section 2 of the same act empowered the governor to appoint three commissioners to attend to the details of procuring the site, and section 3 provided "That all lands granted to the State of Kansas and selected by said state adjoining or as contiguous as may be to each and all of the salt springs belonging to said state and granted by the 4th subdivision of the 3d section of an act of Congress entitled "An act for the admission of Kansas into the Union," approved Jan. 29, 1861, "save and except the salt springs, and the section of land upon which each of said salt springs are located, and one additional section, are hereby set apart and reserved as a perpetual endowment for the support and maintenance of the Normal School established and located by this act." The salt lands amounted to some 30,380 acres but unsold produced no income. In Feb., 1864, the legislature appropriated $1,000 to be used exclusively for the salaries of teachers, and made provision for a board of nine directors, "six of whom shall be appointed by the governor, and the governor, secretary of the state, state treasurer and state superintendent of public instruction shall, by virtue of their office, be members of said board." In 1873 the regents of the state institutions of learning were reduced to seven, six being appointed by the governor and the seventh ex officio, to be the chancellor or president.

Introduction American Indians and the boarding School Experience (Lawrence University Pressof kansas, 1995). 3 Robert A. Trennert, Jr., Alternative to Extinction http://chronicles.dickinson.edu/studentwork/indian/1_introduction.htm
Extractions: Phillip Earenfight, Seminar Adviser/Director, The Trout Gallery The history of Indian boarding schools, and the Carlisle Indian School in particular, began in the early 1870s when major combat in the Indian Wars had ended and the United States Army had started to direct tribes onto reservations. However, the reservation system soon proved to be a failure and many felt that the Indian population would have to assimilate into American society or face extinction. Policy became practice at the Carlisle Indian School, which had its origins in the events following bloody skirmishes near Fort Sill, in what is now Oklahoma. In the aftermath, seventy-two warriors were taken prisoner and moved temporarily to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. They were met by Lt. Richard Henry Pratt, who transported them by train to St. Augustine, Florida to be detained at Fort Marion. Not without incident and death, the surviving captives arrived at the fort on May 21, 1875 (fig. 1; cat. 50a). Encouraged by this early success, Pratt continued his mission in 1878 by introducing Native American students, some of them from Fort Marion, to the Hampton Normal and Industrial Institute (later Hampton College) in Virginia. Founded in 1868 and run by Samuel Chapman Armstrong, the Institute was established as a school for recently-freed black slaves.

Dante nor Blake or Dickens could do it justice. I am only just waking up from the violence and spiritual/ physical and sexual oppression that can only be brought clarity/understood or invoked by combining in ones head what is going on now at Abu Grabe Prison in Iraq and the first five minutes of the movie âRabbit Proof Fenceâ; showing the removal of part White part Aboriginal children from their parents in Australia in an attempt to educate them and selectively breed them back into the white population (the film shows their first days in boarding school not far from my first days at Dorset House).

Extractions: It is possible to find if one of your ancestors attended a boarding school and which one. One of the questions on the federal census of 1910 Indian Schedule was about schools attended. The 1900 census (taken during the school year) lists the students as residents of the schools. Indian census rolls, such as the Durant Roll of 1908, list the school name as place of residence for students away from home. Haskell Institute was established in 1884 in Lawrence, Kansas.
