Abstract
"The medicine men still have a great hold on the Indians of this reservation. Whenever any of them are sick they will call in one of these frauds and night after night one can hear the monotonous music of their medicine doctors. These medicine men lose no opportunity to cause the Indian to lose confidence in the agency physician who is most competent and reliable. I have informed all medicine men that I will not issue anything to them and I believe that I will break up this pernicious practice."
