Sam Chisholm tells the Sheriff of Rose Creek to pass a message to Bartholomew Bogue: "Lincoln, like the President. Lincoln, Kansas". Lincoln, Kansas was founded in 1870, one year after Lincoln, New Mexico where the Lincoln County War took place in 1878-1879. Several plot details mirror the range war, including a robber-baron exerting control over the town, the local sheriff being on the robber-baron's payroll, a group of gunfighters forming to fight the robber-baron (known as The Regulators in the Lincoln County War), the siege of the town (July 15-19, 1878; known as the Battle of Lincoln), and a significant protagonist having the surname Chisholm (Cattle rancher John Chisholm in the Lincoln County War). Further, Mezzogiorno e mezzo di fuoco (1974) takes place in 1874 just 5 years prior.
