Very truly yours,
C. S. SLOANE,
Secretary.
Not to be discouraged, Professor
Gould again took up the matter and is
trying to make the people at Washing
ton see the light His letter to the
board follows:
Mr.. G. S. Sloane,
Secretary United States Geographic
:, Board,
Washington, D. c.
Dear Sir: have yours of the 18th
regarding the name of the river which
flows through eastern Kansas and Ok
lahoma and note that your reason for
assigning the name Neosho to this
stream was because 1t was an Indian
name, meaning excellent water" and
| that 1t was more euphonious and ap-
propriate for the river and does away
with double nomclature for practical
! ly the same stream.
Personally | should prefer the name
Neosho to Grand because | agree that
1t is more euphonious and also that it
is an appropriate name for the stream
but l cannot agree that il is good
policy to attempt to change name all
ready well established not only in the
state and government maps but In
the usage of the country. AS | stated
in my former communication, the
name Grand is almost invariably used
for this stream from point In Ottawa
county where the Neosho and Spring
rivers unite to Fort Gibson, where the
Grand flows into the Arkansas. l do
not pretend to know what names were
used for many years or what names
appear on the early maps of the In
dian Territory" but l do know that
the name Neosho is now rarely used
If at all for this stream in the eastern
part of the state.
may have misconception regarding
the function of your board but 1t has
always been my understanding that
the purpose of the creation of your
board was not to endeavor to establish
lany particular name on account of its
origin or for any other reason, but
that it was the purpose to decide be-
tween conflicting names and TO select
the one most generally used and most
applicable If my understanding is
correct, must still insist that the
name Neosho has no standing and that
the name Grand should be used
Very truly yours.

Gould Object to Changing
Name of Grand River

Prof. Gould, director of the Okla
homa geological survey, appears to
be attempting to set the United States
geographical board right concerning
the name of Grand River in eastern
Oklahoma. He recently wrote the
following letter to the chairman of the
board:
Dear Sir: see Dy the press that
the geographical board has passed up
on the name of the large river in east
ern Oklahoma, usually known as the
Grand, sometimes known as the Ne
osho. II my information is correct
you have decided that Neosho is the
correct name.
II this information is right, should
be glad to have your board reconsider
your decision. have been long the
river from its mouth to the point in
Ottawa county where Neosho and
Spring rivers unite and the word Ne
osho is very rarely used locally In
fact at the present time I do not re-
member of hearing anyone living
along the stream call 1t anything but
Grand river. The Neosho heads in
Kansas, flows southeast and enters OK
lahoma at the Craig-Ottawa county
line Spring river rises in the Ozark
mountains of Missouri and flows west
across the mountains, southwest across
the corner of Kansas and joins the
Neosho river near the center of OF
taYa county. From this point soutf
as / have just said. the stream is
known as the Grand river. 1t is so in
corporated on all the official maps
that have ever been issued and on
many government maps as we'll and
do not believe that it would be wise
to change a name as well established
as this one is Understand, please
that am by no means attempting tc
dictate to your board, which doubt
less has sources of information that
are to me unavailable. ! am speaking
in a more or less official capacity fol-
the people OF lle state of Oklahoma
who desire to have the name Grand
retained.
Very truly,
The reply which came last weei
was as follows:
DR.. Charles N Gould,
Director of the State Geological
Survey,
Norman, Okla.
Sir; have your letter of February
9th in regard to the name established
for the river which flows through east
ern Kansas and Oklahoma, called the
Neosho in Kansas, and from its juno
tion with the Spring river, called Ne
osho or Grand
The board made decision in 1881
in regard to this name, as it appeared
on many maps as Grand or Neosho
river, from its junction and no ques
ton was made as to its name in the
portion in Kansas.
The name Neosho being an Indian
name meaning clear, excellent wa
ter" is, believe much more euphon
ious appropriate name for the river
and does away with the double nom
enclature for practically the same
stream.
The two names, Grand and Neosho
were used for many years and appear
on all the early maps of the Indian
Territory, grouped together as Ne
osho or Grand. The board, after care
