These twenty-eight countles, extending from Red river to the Rlo Grande for a decade have depended on the raliroad for food, raiment and transportation. It 1s estimated that more live stock Wwas carried from the road's territory than from any section in the United States. Before the railroad came the cattlemen drove these steers over the long trails to other existing roads. Concelved by Stillwell. Arthur Stillwell first conceived the idea of the Orient railroad. It was an imposing dream. He planned the start at Kansas City and placed the termi- nal on the Pacific ocean, after tra- versing a great part of Mexico. Work was begun at Wichita, Kan., and the road ended at San Angelo, Texas, bi- secting the broad-acred ranches, but neither beginning nor ending any- where that compensating traffic could be secured. Through the twenty- eight Texas counties little towns sprang up along the road and for a time there was a semblance of pros- perity. But the drouth of 1917 hit the cattle | country. Thousands upon thousands of cattle died of thirst. Prices drop. — OBREGON IS STUDYING | PROPOSAL OF BANKERS | i Agreement Regarding Mexican !

Merchants all along the line are rushing orders to stock up, while they can. The ranchmen are moving as many cattle &3 possible. But soon the old days will return and the cat- tle will be driven along the trails— they are roads now, but won't last long when the cattle begin trampling them down—and the merchants will freight their supplies by prairie schooner and motor truck as long as the roads remain passable. It is estimated that the shutting down of the Orient will mean a loss of $50,000,000 in the shrinkage of property values, in loss of trade to merchants and in the abandonment of many of the little towns that now mushroom the right of way of the road. ”.
