As a "rider" to the Indian Appropriations Act for 1890, the Springer Amendment began the process of placing the Unassigned Lands of Indian Territory within the federal public domain and open to homesteaders. William M. Springer, U.S. representative from Illinois and chair of the House Committee on Territories, advocated organizing the unoccupied Unassigned Lands of Indian Territory into a new administrative unit, Oklahoma Territory. In this he was supported by David L. Payne, William L. Couch, Samuel Crocker, and others within the Boomer Movement. In 1888 Springer sponsored a bill to create Oklahoma Territory. The Springer bill was not enacted; revived in the next session of Congress, it met approval in the House but stalled in the Senate. Bypassing the roadblock, Springer and other "boomer" supporters devised amendments to the pending Indian Appropriations Bill, hoping that would accomplish their aims. Section 12, added by Rep. Samuel W. Peel of Arkansas, allocated funds to settle the Creek and Seminole claim to the land. Section 13, added by Springer, authorized the president to issue a proclamation opening the lands for settlement. The amended bill passed the Senate and was signed into law by Pres. Grover Cleveland on March 2, 1889. Pres. Benjamin Harrison, who took office on March 4, accordingly issued the appropriate proclamation on March 23, 1889.

William Springer (1836–1903) is noted for delivering a speech in which he stated on the floor of Congress that he "would rather be right than be President." Springer later moved to Oklahoma, residing in Muskogee and later in Vinita. From 1895 through the time of his death he held a federal judgeship, presiding first over the Northern District Court and later as chief justice of the Supreme Court of Indian Territory.

Do extinction events such as the Cretaceous-Tertiary Mass Extinction event prove the Great Chain of Being wrong?
tatiyna

Answer:

Assuming your referring to the Christian "Great Chain of Being" then no.

Explanation:

(I will try to be as unbiased as possible)

Just to clarify for anyone who is uniformed on what exactly the Great Chain of Being is... it is a hierarchy chart which first surfaced in Medieval Europe which goes in order as... God, Angelic Beings, Humanity, Animals, Plants, Minerals.

In the Bible it is stated numerous times (I can find the specific page and such if needed) that "great beasts" roamed the earth... now there is no historical or scientific evidence this was referring directly to Dinosaurs but there is evidence that mass extinction events have occurred all throughout history and some are event mentioned in the bible itself (The Great Flood) It is thought that about 75% of all animal life on earth was wiped out (Also most believe that some form of Humanity was alive during the supposed asteroid strike) which means that if you are arguing that a mass extinction event would mean that Great Chain of Being or basically the existence of God then you would be wrong. (Again being unbiased here, there is also no evidence that there is a "God" or Gods)

I hope this could help, my apologies if it didn't. If you need any more elaboration I will gladly try my best to help out down in the comments

7. Would you like to be a historian who studies colonial history or a person who works at a museum like Old Sturbridge Village?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

I would not.

Explanation:

In order to study colonial history, It would require me going out to another country (most likely developing countries) in order to see the effect of colonization from their perspective.

Despite my Interest in the issue, this type of jobs would require you to be separated with your loved ones for a really long time and the rewards for the monetary job is pretty low.
