EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dated August 16, 1890, showcases a scene of promise and opportunity in South Dakota. The image, titled "Free homes, government lands, and cheap deeded lands in South Dakota," invites viewers to envision a new beginning in the vast, untouched landscape. At the heart of the image, a group of modest, yet well-built homes stands proudly, their white exteriors gleaming in the sunlight. These homes were likely part of the Homestead Act of 1862, which granted free land to settlers who agreed to live on and cultivate it for five years. The success of these homesteaders is evident in the thriving community that has grown around them. Surrounding the homes, expanses of government land stretch out as far as the eye can see. These lands, also known as public domain, were available for purchase at a low cost through the Dawes Act of 1887. The goal of the act was to encourage settlement and assimilation of Native American tribes, who were forced to relinquish their lands. The cheap deeded lands, which can be seen in the background, were likely acquired through private sales or land grants. The diverse landscape, featuring rolling hills, dense forests, and clear waterways, offers ample opportunities for agriculture and livestock raising. This photograph captures a moment in time when the promise of free land and the allure of a new beginning drew settlers to South Dakota in droves. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and the spirit of determination that shaped the American frontier.
