1uc iISb llItlOI1l convention OF cat
tlemen that ever assembled in this
country met at 81. Louis, Mo-, on the
18th inst, and remained in session five
days. Taken as a Whole, it was the
occasion Of fine time among the cattle
men, and if they did not profit financially
from the experiment, they at least had
a pleasant gathering and all will feel
that it was good that they were together.
The call OrtLis convention was issued
from the Office of Hunter Evans 4 Co.,
the well known live stock commission
men of st. Louis; aud while they were
aided BY others, from the beginning,
it must be admitted that as the prime
movers, they deserved and received due
credit for their activity. The city of
st. Louis should, and no doubt will,
remember this enterprise on the part of
Hunter, Evans & Co., and in future
accord to them the position of active,
leading and energetic citizens.
There were something more than 200
accredited delegates present; and this
would indicate large and unwieldy
body--and at times during the proceed
ings ii proved such. But while this
was the case, it must also be admitted
that any body of delegates Of equal
number, no matter Of what profession
or calling, would have been equally as
cumbersome.
The convention discussed the matter
of pleuro-pneumonia, and agreed TO
memorabilia congress to aid in its sup
preston.
But when it come to the much dreaded
Texas or splenic fever, the convention
was badly handicapped. The Texas
and southern cattlemen insisted that
there was no serious danger from this
disease, and right there was the hitch.
No better Illustration or comment on
the proceedings can be given here than
that part relating to the national trail.
Tie committee on resolutions submitted
the following report which was adoptad:
WHEREAS, one Of the objects of this
convention is to procure, by all legiti-
mate means within its power, such leg
lslatlon from congress as shall the best
protect and promote the entire stock
interest Of the United States, and offer
70 each and every section of the country
an ample market and transportation IA
cilities; and
WHEREAS, 1t is the desire of this con-
Ventlon that a safe and cheap route be
opened from the extensive breeding
grounds OF the great northwest; and
WHEREAS, we believe that this can
only be accomplished by the establish
ment OF national stock trail over which
stock can be driven. Now, therefore.
be it
Resolved thai this convention does

ate legislation rs shall be sufficient to
accomplish the purpose herein intended.
to open, establish, and maintain n ma
tional stock trail, beginning at some
point ON Red river ard extending then
In a north or northwest direction to the
north line Of the United States.

OF this convention be appointed to pre-
pare and present said memorial to
congress in the name and by the author

gest that Gov. Click would be entirely

them necessary. but there Il not the

fact that, the title Of colored people to
freedom and all the rights OF citizen

change In the constitution. which IL
would be absolutely impossible. BESIDES

the colored people has been so fully ac-
cepted by the entire country. that no
one should have the slightest idea that
any attempt will be made to change n.
II there was any possibility Of accom-
