In August 1898, land located in Section 7 of Township 132 North, Range 76 West, of the Fifth Principal Meridian, was surveyed and platted into lots, streets and alleys. The site was named Linton, and the plat was filed with the register of deeds on December 30, 1898. Linton was incorporated as a village on April 26, 1906; and incorporated as a city on April 6, 1914.

The creation of Linton was the result of a political dispute between residents in the northern half of Emmons County and those in the southern half. In 1885, two years after the county was officially organized, the county seat was located in the town of Williamsport, which was located in the northern half of the county. The people in the southern half were upset because the county seat was so far away and most of the county leaders were from the North. Moreover, the northern part was more settled (i.e. had a higher population) than the southern part so this created problems for the southerners when it came time to vote on issues. Eventually, it was decided to take a vote to see if residents favored dividing the county in two. If successful, the northern half would continue to be named Emmons ”with Williamsport remaining the county seat ”while the southern half would be named Winona with the town of Winona serving as the new county seat of government.
