The vaqueros endured the insulting criticisms of the strangers as long as the laws of hospitality re- quired, and then they wanted to know what the Arizona men knew about riding. The Arizona men said they could ride anything that wore hair, and chal- lenged the vaqueros to bring out their mustangs. Two ugly little broncos were caught up and saddled, and the Arizona fellows, with drunken reck- lessness, climbed aboard. They were pitched off with neatness and dispatch, and proved to be very clumsy fellows in the saddle, but that didn’t stop their ejon ranch This financial t yout by bragging.
