A few years later, Dodge City has turned into the "longhorn cattle center of the world and wide-open Babylon of the American frontier, packed with settlers, thieves and gunmen—the town that knew no ethics but cash and killing".

Any new sheriff, sworn into office in Dodge, is quickly driven out of town by Surrett and his cronies.
