moved to the capital lands in the Pan
handle. Mr.. Collins, who has them
in charge, has been notified by repre-
sentstives OF the Panhandle Stock a..
SOC alton that he will not be allowed
to drive to his destination, but Gov.
Ireland has promised to furnish pro-
lection and see them through. This
opens disturbing question, and one
OF very great interest TO the stockmen
OF the state. 1t has been suggested
that II the coast cattle cannot be driv-
en- through without inspec ing the
Panhandle cattle, the state should give
some guarantee that the interest on
the bonds OF railroad that would
build through and save all this trouble
would be paid.
