- Ben Carpenter writes to George B. Schwabe endorsing O.K. Chandler's Indian bill, stating that it is time for the Indian business to be over with as it is expensive and provides no real benefit to the Indians. Carpenter, a fullblood Indian, emphasizes the importance of the bill for the Indian community and urges Schwabe to take action on it for his own benefit in the upcoming election.
