Oklahoma City in 1910 was a young city, not yet two decades past the 1889 land run that opened the district to settlement. Statehood in 1907 had made it a center of commerce for a farming and ranching region, and that year the state capital was moved there from Guthrie. Cattle, grain, and cotton moved through its rail yards, and the stockyards on the city's south side helped make livestock the backbone of local business. A roping contest put the working skills of ranch hands on display, and for many residents such events recalled the cattle drives and open range that had defined the territory only a few years earlier.
