Stick to the Trail |

When the Galveston News can't
find grievance against the cattlemen
1t will be q melancholy day. The
present occasion places that paper in
an embarrassing position, as, to scold
part OF the Texas cattlemen, IL must
espouse the cause of others of them.
The situation is this: There Is dis
agreement between the cattlemen Of
the state, those from the southern part
of the state wishing to drive cattle
through certain of the northern coun-
ties, which the owners of herds there
oppose. The News thereupon falls
upon the Panhandle 'cattlemen and
berai es them for opposing the right OF
cattlemen from other portions OF the
state to drive through their lands.
There is, and has existed for many
years, an established trail for driving
cattle through Northwest Texas and
the Panhandle. No protest or oppo-
sition has ever been offered to the
driving of cattle over this trail. 1t is
only now, when n company of cattle
owners from Southern Texas propose
to leave the beaten track and cut across
the country, invading private ranch
lands and endangering the health of
thousands OF cattle, that the Panhan-
die cattlemen declare they will not al
low this passage through their lands.
The trail is broad and easily followed.
III herds from the South are kept
within the confines of this trail they
will find no obstacle in passing
through the Panhandle, as they have
always done. But If they so outside
of it, and to make n short cut to their
objective point, run over private prop
erty, they VIII breed trouble.
We doubt If there are any Panhan-
die cattlemen who object to herds
being driven over tine regular trail
They recognize the Importance of an
outlet for Southern cattle. The trail
had been established and was common
ground when they located in the Pan.
handle, and cannot now be destroyed
without the violation of recognized
right. They do not question this
right, and viii not interfere with it.
But they will not allow the grazing
lands which they occupy to be over.
run 10y foreign cattle, leaving disease
and death in their paths, solely be-
cause their owners want short
cut and will not go by the
trail route. Southern Texas cattle.
men have right to drive their herds
through the Panhandle, but they
have not right to leave the trail at Il
cost of perhaps millions of dollars to
the cattlemen through whose grounds
they wish to pass. And the right OF
the Panhandle cattlemen to prevent
such passage over lands owned OF
leased by them cannot be questioned
and by far the larger portion OF Pan
handle cattlemen have legal right tc
their ranges, either by purchase Of
lease. The News disclaims locallsm
an journalism; let 1t, then, view Thu
matter from u broader standpoint.

The Rasoals Are Qoinr,

The rapidity with which the rascals
are going ought to satisfy every Demo-
crat, and doubtless will satisfy every
Democrat save those who have not
been called. The president may con-
sole himself, II consolation he needs,
with the fact that the great body of
the people are satisfied, and give as
little heed to the impatient souls M to
the disappointed ones. The attacks of
Eustis, Pulitzer and Mclean, prompt
ed by opposition to civll'service re-
form, will prove impotent save to
demonstrate their own weakness
within their own party. And,
IA for the impatient people who
clamor for clean sweep, they have
no just cause of complaint and will
make no impress on the public mind,
The appointments made average about
thirty day, which must be satlsfac-
tory to all who appreciate the respon-
sibillty of the new administration
President Cleveland and his cabinet
realize the danger in haste and the
probability Of mistake, even with most
cautious movements, The president Is
not seeking to administer the govern,
ment for men who want Office fol-
themselves or their friends, but fol
the country, and he serves hi,
party best who serves his country best
The murmurs and criticisms come
from men under whose leadership tn,
Democracy could never have won vic
tory, and under whose leadership tn,
Democracy corld not perpetuate itsel
In power. From purely psrtlsat
standpoint, the president must be nc
corded wisdom in his course so far.
