Caddo County Full of Sooners Before Open Land Allotment
Washington reports a land office circular disqualifies many from homestead entry in the Wichita Kiowa Comanche and Apache ceded lands. Disqualifications include existing entries since 1900, guardians, non citizens, under 21, non heads of families unless veterans, large landowners, or those already securing land under other acts. Caddo county deemed full of sooners and potential trouble looms as allotment opens. Cavalry units dispatched to Fort Reno and Fort Sill to maintain order amid shifts as settlers move in.
