Cattle trade

The idea of driving Texas longhorn cattle from Texas to railheads in Kansas originated in the late 1850s[citation needed] but was cut short by the Civil War. In 1866, the first Texas cattle started arriving in Baxter Springs in southeastern Kansas by way of the Shawnee Trail. However, Texas longhorn cattle carried a tick that spread splenic fever among other breeds of cattle. Known locally as Texas Fever, alarmed Kansas farmers persuaded the Kansas State Legislature to establish a quarantine line in central Kansas. The quarantine prohibited Texas longhorns from the heavily settled, eastern portion of the state. With the cattle trade forced west, Texas longhorns began moving north along the Chisholm Trail. In 1867, the main Cow Town was Abilene, Kansas. Profits were high, and other towns quickly joined in the cattle boom. Newton in 1871; Ellsworth in 1872; and Wichita in 1872. However, in 1876 the Kansas State Legislature responded to pressure from farmers settling in central Kansas and once again shifted the quarantine line westward, which essentially eliminated Abilene and the other Cow Towns from the cattle trade. With no place else to go, Dodge City suddenly became Queen of the Cow Towns. A new route, known as the Great Western Cattle Trail, or Western Trail, branched off from the Chisholm Trail to lead cattle into Dodge City. Dodge City became a boomtown, with thousands of cattle passing annually through its stockyards. The peak years of the cattle trade in Dodge City were from 1883 to 1884, and during that time the town grew tremendously. In 1880, Dodge City got a new competitor for the cattle trade from the border town of Caldwell. For a few years the competition between the towns was fierce, but there were enough cattle for both towns to prosper. Nevertheless, it was Dodge City that became famous, and rightly so because no town could match Dodge City's reputation as a true frontier settlement of the Old West. Dodge City had more famous (and infamous) gunfighters working at one time or another than any other town in the West, many of whom participated in the Dodge City War of 1883. It also boasted the usual array of saloons, gambling halls, and brothels established to separate a lonely cowboy from his hard-earned cash, including the famous Long Branch Saloon and China Doll brothel. For a time in 1884, Dodge City even had a bullfighting ring where Mexican bullfighters imported from Mexico would put on a show with specially chosen longhorn bulls. As more agricultural settlers moved into western Kansas, pressure on the Kansas State Legislature to do something about splenic fever increased. Consequently, in 1885 the quarantine line was extended across the state and the Western Trail was all but shut down. By 1886, the cowboys, saloon keepers, gamblers, and brothel owners moved west to greener pastures, and Dodge City became a sleepy little town much like other communities in western Kansas.

Origins

The first settlement in the area that became Dodge City was Fort Mann. Built by civilians in 1847, Fort Mann was intended to provide protection for travelers on the Santa Fe Trail. Fort Mann collapsed in 1848 after an Indian attack. In 1850, the U.S. Army arrived to provide protection in the region and constructed Fort Atkinson on the old Fort Mann site. The army abandoned Fort Atkinson in 1853. Military forces on the Santa Fe Trail were reestablished further north and east at Fort Larned in 1859, but the area around what would become Dodge City remained vacant until after the Civil War. In 1865, as the Indian Wars in the West began heating up, the army constructed Fort Dodge to assist Fort Larned in providing protection on the Santa Fe Trail. Fort Dodge remained in operation until 1882. The town of Dodge City can trace its origins to 1871 when rancher Henry J. Sitler built a sod house west of Fort Dodge to oversee his cattle operations in the region. Conveniently located near the Santa Fe Trail and Arkansas River, Sitler's house quickly became a stopping point for travelers. With the Santa Fe Railroad rapidly approaching from the east, others saw the commercial potential of the region. In 1872, just five miles (8 km) west of Fort Dodge, settlers platted out and founded the town of Dodge City. George M. Hoover established the first bar in a tent to service thirsty soldiers from Fort Dodge. The railroad arrived in September to find a town ready and waiting for business. The early settlers in Dodge City traded in buffalo bones and hides and provided a civilian community for Fort Dodge. However, with the arrival of the railroad, Dodge City soon became involved in the cattle trade.

Trivia

One of the downtown streets in present-day Dodge City is called Gunsmoke Street. Dodge City is featured in the computer game GUN. Dodge City is also the name of an abandoned weapons factory in the videogame 'Taz Wanted'. In 1819, Dodge City was on the U.S.-Mexico border; the Arkansas River formed the southern border between New Spain (Spanish Mexico) and the United States in the Adams-Onís Treaty in 1819. Dodge City lies above the world’s largest underground water system, the Ogallala Aquifer. The aquifer, which lies under most of the Great Plains, contains primarily fossil water from the time of the last glaciation, and has enough water to cover the entire U.S. to a depth of 1½ feet. It yields about a third of the nation's ground water used for irrigation. Growing agricultural and municipal use is rapidly depleting the aquifer, especially in southwest Kansas and the Texas panhandle. Annual recharge in these areas is only about ten percent of annual withdrawals. For example, Kansas hydrologists estimate that at Ulysses, 70 miles (110 km) WSW of the college, the aquifer may have only 25 years left if current usage rates continue. The campus is only 25 miles (40 km) from the eastern edge of the Hugoton Natural Gas Area, the largest natural gas field in the North America. It covers 8,500 square miles (22,000 km2), an area 5 times the size of Rhode Island. Winter wheat grown in the area around Dodge City is descended from Turkey Red winter wheat, brought to Kansas in 1874 by the Mennonites. The midwest Dust Bowl in the 1930’s was due to these wheat crops dying off from prolonged drought, leaving the tilled-up soil vulnerable to wind erosion. Coronado’s Conquistadors introduced longhorn cattle, which helped make Dodge City famous, into the New World in the 1500s. The longhorn is first cousin to the Spanish Fighting Bull. It was illegal to spit on a sidewalk in Dodge City, and all places of business are required to provide horse water troughs.
