Statehood or New Territory

Deadwood contemplates forming a new territory or accepting an offer to annex to
Wyoming. Deadwood would serve as the capital.

Shall it be named El Dorado or Lincoln Territory? Encountering opposition
from Yankton and Washington, Deadwood seeks to promote its ally, former
Montanan and Representative to Congress, Judge Granville Bennett.
Republicans and Democrats get busy in Deadwood and the political fur begins
to fly.
