governor Of Oklahoma. He was ap.
pointed by President Harrison in 1880

Indiana.
His coming was attended by cele.
bration which lasted TWO days, parti-
cipsted in by citizens from all parts of
the territory. 9.
Governor Steele's official days we're
filled with trouble because OF the con-
flicting interests in the newly-created
commonwealth. The question OF perma.
nently locating the capital was the
source OF great concern 10 him and "A
serious crop failure about that time ad-
ded to his problems.
Soon afterward the general unsettled
conditions In the territory caused Gov
ernor Steele to resign and return to
his home In Indiana.
Governor Steele appointed the first
set OF county officials in the territory
and 1t was during his administration
that the present townsites OF Tecumseh
and Chandler were opened. one OF the
outstanding policies OF his administra
ton was the permitting Of settlers to
locate on school lands.
