Wyoming History
Tensions between white immigrants and Chinese were very high, and the “Rock Springs Massacre” gave it an outlet. At least twenty-eight Chinese were killed, many were injured, and seventy-five houses were burned. Federal troops were deployed to quell the riots in Rock Springs.
The “Rock Springs Massacre” sparked a wave of anti-Chinese violence in the US Northwest. It was one of the most serious racially motivated incidents in the United States in the 19th century.
On July 10, 1890, Wyoming became the forty-fourth state of the United States.
In 1892, conflict broke out in Wyoming between small farmers and large landowners (“Johnson County War”), one of the most famous episodes of the American “Wild West” period.
At the end of the 19th century, a large number of cattle were raised on the steppe expanses of Wyoming. To distinguish between the belonging of cows and calves, they were marked with the brand of one or another owner. Considering that the cattle were not kept in fenced pens, but on free grazing, it was impossible to carry out an accurate count. This created the basis for abuses, including the theft of livestock.
In the 1880s, several of Wyoming’s large cattle ranches formed the Wyoming Stock Growers Association (WSGA). The new organization started a war with cattle rustlers, not really analyzing right and wrong and often using illegal “lynching”, that is, execution without official investigation and trial. In addition, the WSGA has successfully lobbied for new laws to protect its interests.
