Although the Dakota Territory was organized in 1861, the population was quite small, and the majority of the
population were American Indians. The Homestead Act of 1862 drew homesteaders, and soon large cattle ranches
were proving to Americans that farmers could be successful in the northern Great Plains. Transportation became
easier between 1871 and 1889, when more than two thousand lines of railroad track were laid across the state. The
effect on the population was dramatic. In 1860 the white population of North Dakota was 2,576. By 1889, that number
had jumped to 191,000. Both North Dakota and South Dakota were able to apply for statehood.
