The railroads bo- tween Kansas City and Omaha got o $20 division of the through rate, which practi- cally shuts southwestern cattle out of this market, The Omaha packers have only asked for a reduction of the division to $12.50 per car, but the Santa Fo has gone before tho freight associations with a demand for a reduction to $7.50.

How the War Between the Stockmen and the Rustlers Originated, 1n order to give e an approximato idea of the merits of tho present dispute between the stockmen and vhe *‘rustlers” of Wyom- ing, it is nocessary to go back to the eurly days of western settlement and development, Thousands of Nebraska residents can re member whon the fortilo valioys of tho stato afforded pasturage tv uncounted thousands of caude that ranged at will amid the sue culent and nutritious grasses of tho vegas. People who have watched the disappearance of theso great herds, who havo seen the plains, deseribed by an enthusiastic orator as “sky-bounded and horizon-staked,” et up intosmall farms, who have seen the camp fire of cowboys flicker and die out, and have watched the smoke curl upward from tho dugout or sod house of the nomesteader, will Kkuow moro of tho causes for the present demonstration than Tux Ber: can tell {Lis the natural law of tho “survival of the fittest,” the cousummation of evolution applied tonational growth, Cattio raising, s commonly understood, in its very nature must bo pursued in unsettied or svarsely populated regions. Ounlv whoro the broad llanos rematn virgin and untram molod by the plow can bo found range cuf ficient for the successful support of cattlo by grazing. Another essential is water. "This must bo found in stroams, Away from therailroads, far from the border of “civili- zation,” beteen tho eastern and western limits'of “the frontios” lies this lana which until within n fow _years was the cattle man’s paradise. Hore the “big outfits” fouud conditions ideal, and the cattle king and his retainers—the cowboys —led a life whoso only counterpart in history was that of the barons who buttled and revoled in modiozval times in the Old werld, And the d wntall of theso New world barons came from the same causo as did that of thoir Old world predecessors—through the eucroach- ments of the common herd. “Waostward, ho!" is n common enough cry. It has resounded since tho day tho first white man wended his adveuturous way throush the Appalachian forests, and set his cabin so that the rays of tho sotting sun shone through 1ts open door. Bul in this cry of the pionecr was the death knell of the cattleking. Belore its magic speil a raco of people has fallen back, ginut forests have vanished, mighty rivers have been tamed, cities havo grown up from the wilderness, species of animal as beon exterminsted, geogruphy has been changed, —miracles havo been wrought, and are being wrought, and before it the cattle king and the cowbey aro falling away, oven as have faded tho buffalo and tho Indian. Whon a mau sots forth to make himself a home in the wilderness he chotses such a placo as will afford bim water, fuel and shel- ter. In the west these could be found on along the water courses, His neighbor sougit the same, and his neighbor’s neighbor, until next season whsn the cattlo sought the stream which siaked their thirst last sum- mer they found the way barred by the pioneer’s fence. Then camo tho tug of war. The cattlemen forced a passuge to water and the settler retaliated, and a feua wa born os relentiess as that botween the offspring of the woman and the descendants of tho serpent. Attuck was followed by re- prisal, and the history of the west is a hi tory of a conilict bolween cattlemen and farmers, and the former have had to retire before the latter. Such 1n general are tho relations between the cattlemen and tho settlors As tho farmers come in numbers the Waler —courses Were S00: fenced in and the grazing land back was taken up, and the rango for cattle was gradunily varrowed year by year, until in Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado and South Da- kota it has well nigh disappeared. The farmer saw thoe profit of stock raising. Ho had a cow or two, and thoy roamed at will on the prairie. In the spring the round up came and in the genaral swesp tho farm- er's cows were carried along and with their calves wero lost iu the great aroves of cattle gathered by the cor- don of cowboys who_ scoured evory nook and cranny of tho prairic, exploring driw and couled in scarch of evorything with horns and toofs. If tho farmer had been wise enough and ambitious enough to pro- vide himselt with a brand and had had that brand duly registered, he stood some show of recoveriug his siock. But he had to nt- tond the round-up and seo to it porson that his cow and her call wero not numbered with the X Y 7% or > D Q outfits’ annual “calf erop.” If he had no brand ho might as wall stay at homa, for his only resource was in fol By the law of the herd a calf was supposed to g0 to the brand borne by the cow with whom 1t was found. If it had strayed from its dam it becamo a “maverick” and subject to be branded by its finder. How many cows and calves belonging to sottlers have been ‘‘mavericked” by cattlomen—or vico versia—ean never be toid, It is sufticient 10 state that while the cattlemen were in tho majority on tho plains thoy did as thoy ploased, and they didn’t encourage immigra- tion. When the settlers finally becamo num- erous cnough to establish and maintain their rights the cattlemen moved on. “This, thon, is ke situation’ in Wyoming today. In o gencral way it proscits the equities of the case without going into de- tails or attompting to difforentiato’ between the big und the little stock raisers of Wyom- ing. —_—— Mrs, L. R.
