A Viotorr for Tern, oattlemen.


The Texas delegation in the cattle
mems convention won substantial
victory In the passage Of their resolu-
ton In favor of national cattle trail.
The securing Of such a trail was the
chief object of their interest in the
convention. Though opposed by
the delegates from some Of the North
ern states and territories, and from
Kansas, the convention as body
acknowledged the justice Of their
demands and by satisfactory majority
voted in favor of using its united in-
fluence To secure the trail. OF course
congress must be appealed TO for the
granting Of the right cf way through
the territories. but that this right will
be allowed can hardly be doubted
when all the influence of the cattle
interests is behind the demand for IL.
This trail will begin with great roots
branching out over large portion,
perhaps, of Northwestern Texas and
reaching Central Texas. Near the
west end of the Inuian territory these
roots will center into main stem,
shadow = corner Off of New Mexico,
pursue tolerably direct course
through Colorado, passing probably
considerably east of Denver, enter
Wyoming not far from Chey enne City
traverse that territory west of the main
Black Hills region and from the upper
part Of Wyoming will throw branches
through Montana and Dakota
IL il intended to be ten miles
wide and TO be as direct as
the lay Of the land regarding gras.
and water will admit OF. To secure
the route purchase from private par
ties Will be necessary to only a limited
extent. AS to the rest concessions
from the respective states and terri
tories, and an act of congress with
holding the needed public land from
entry and settlement and declaring Il
tree TO all for cattle drive, under suit
able conditions, to prom te law anc
order, are all the boons the cattlemer
ask for from the country at large
They Insist upon the trail as the only
safe way OF transporting cattle with
out developing aud spreading cattle
fevers. 1t is also far the cheapest way
of moving them

Republican Hatred Of St. John.

For INDUCING in the free-born Amer
can luxury of running for office, Mr.,
st. John is nov getting an unusual
share OF attention. Every Republican
newspaper in the North Ia blackguard-
ing him with all the billingsgate at
their command, and the supply is a
generous one Howling Republican
mobs burn him in efiigy and heap
curses and imprecations upon his head
Republican preachers in their pulpits
conslgn him 10 perdition, and Repub-
lican congreg atoms say 'amenp'
Never hasa wlokeder or moro vicious
spirit of In clearance been shown In the
political history of tue United States.
Tomake an eiiisy OF a man and burn It
amid the excavations of an enraged
mob does not hurt the man whom Il ia
intended to insult, but II elbows the
malevolence of the Republican party.
II that party could, without ineurrinr
the legal penalty, IL would burn s.
Johns body, instead OF his iusentlent
image. The Puritan ancestors

ing the eiiigy of another be-
cause they cannot control his politics,
tortured and burnt at the stake Qua,
kers and Catholics because they could
not control their religion. st. John
escapes this dreadful fate only because
he lives Ia age that forbids It.
The Prohibition candidate com.
mitted no crime, social or moral, when
he accepted the nomination OF his
party, made in regular convention,
and began hls canyass for what he
esteemed living principle. The sam,
Kansas mobs that are now insulting
him for the exercise Of political
right, few years ago made him gov
ernor upon tho same platform OF pro
hlbition that he now stands on. II,
has not shifted, but they are ready 10
burn him alive If they dared to.

IT Is to be hoped that the reward
offered by the governor for the appre-
hension and conviction OF the miscre-
ants who caused the wreck on the
Houston & Texas Central railroad
will prove sufficient to effect their
capture. II is to be regretted, how
ever, that the sum had not been
5000 instead of$lOOO. Under the con-
ditions Of the reward only 1900 will be
paid for the conviction OF each party
connected with the diabolical affair,
and this sum is not sufficient to induce
any Of those implicated to take chances
on acting informer Had the sum
been larger, greater efforts would have
been made by the detectives and there
would have been more likelihood OF
one Of the guilty ones turning states
evidence. A man who will wreck "a
train will sacrifice his pals every time
for a reward OF $4,000.
