Pres. Benjamin Harrison signed a proclamation opening the Unassigned Lands in Indian Territory on April 22, 1889, to non-Indian settlers. Guthrie and other towns sprang into existence on that day when approximately fifty thousand participants of the Land Run of 1889 staked their claims on the open prairie.
