Bonanza is a city in Sebastian County, Arkansas, United States. It is part of the Fort Smith, Arkansas-Oklahoma Metropolitan Statistical Area. At the 2010 Census, the population of Bonanza was 575. According to the 2005 US Census Bureau estimates, the population of Bonanza was 544.〔(Population Estimates for All Places: 2000 to 2006 )〕 Bonanza began as a coal mining town of the ''Central Coal and Coke company''.
== History ==
On October 10, 1851, ''Sebastian County'' was created from parts of Crawford, Polk, and Scott County Arkansas placing Bonanza within the boundaries. Coal was discovered near the Arkansas-Oklahoma line about 12 miles southeast of Fort Smith. The ''Central Coal and Coke company'' laid tracks to the area in 1896 as part of the "St. Louis and San Francisco Railway". ''Bonanza'' sprang up as a company town. Mine #10 did not give good results but Mine #12 soon had 144 workers. Mine #20 employed 185 workers and Mine #26 employed 76 workers. The workers and their families soon reached a sizable amount and C.C. Woodson filed a petition to incorporate and on November 26, 1898 the town was chartered.
=== Bonanza Race War ===
Around 200 citizens held a meeting with the purpose of removing black workers from the town. A resolution was passed “demanding that about forty negroes employed by Central Coal and Coke Company leave town.”. On April 30, 1904, there was a gun battle between black and white miners. It was reported that around 500 rounds were fired and the Arkansas Gazette reported on May 7, "nearly all black residents had left the city.".
