Explanation:

In 1879 a group of home seekers following the guidance of Charles C. Carpenter tried to occupy Indian Territory but were stopped by General John Pope´s federal troops.

In February 1889 the Springer Amendment to the Indian Appropriations Bill authorized Pres. Benjamin Harrison to declare the Unassigned Lands as subject to opening.

On April 22, many attempted to enter the Oklahoma Lands on what soon became known as the Land Run of 1889.

On 1890, the Organic Act for the Territory of Oklahoma brought the territorial government into existence, with Guthrie as the territorial capital.
