There is more money in fatting
cattle in Texas, where corn and
coarse fodder can be grown so
cheaply, than in raising grassers
for the middlemen to fat. The
farmer always has his head stuffed
full of the great profits that the
middlemen make, and right here
where he has a chance to be his
own middleman and rake in the
profits he declines. This is not
good cow-puncher sense.

The COXey movement on Wash
ington is the direct fruitage of the
implanting of Democratic speeches
made in political campaigns to fire
the popular heart against the con-
troll of the Republicans. The party
cry has ever been that the masses
were being ruled by the classes and
that the remedy was in their own
hands. This teaching has brought
forth fruit in an unexpected way,
and it is the very poetry of justice
that the effects are recOiling upon
the preachers and teachers Of this
sectionalism. The arraignment OF
the masses against the classes has
been called for by the Democrat
les, 10 these many years, and now
they are reaping their reward. The
harvest is one of firebrands, ar
rows and death, but fearful as it is
it will not teach that dominant
party any wisdom of utterance.

Talk is cheap, but experience
teaches that the reign of the wise
is no more certain than the
official life of fools. The Republic
can party cannot enjoy any very
long lease of power on the found
alton of Democratic incompetency.
There are some very practical
questions that are before the coun-
try, outside of those Of tariff and
finance, and the Republican party
has not showed any particular dis
position to legislate upon these
during the past decade. III it
would remain in power, to which
it will be returned this fall and
two years hence, it must return to
the principles enunciated by the
early fathers of the party, and OF
which the Martyr President, Lin
coin, was so shining an eXemplar.
Some specific legislation on indus
trial questions is demanded, some
practical restriction of immigra-
ton, some recognition of the rights
Of organized labor, some acts that
show this is government for the
people.

Private car "Nomad" with President
Palmer. of the Rio Cirande Western, is

dent Palmer are several members of
his family, who have been doing the
coast since they passed through here
about four weeks ago. A Herald
representative called upon him last
evening, and was pleasantly enter
tanned by Mr.. Prentiss, his private
secretary, whilst awaiting President
Palmer's and the ladies' return from
city. Upon their arrival the Herald
man was made to feel that he was sat

changed with the ladies, and box of
fragrant Havanas had made their ap
pearance, the general was asked what

Coxeyites, when he replied:
I'VE had very pleasant trip

ticular time. We attended the Mid

General, did you observe any more
of the so-called ''industrials'' headed
this way while en- route here?"
There are more coming, if small
squads on nearly every train makes
clear such purpose. They are not NOV
ing, so far as I could observe, save in
that way, but doubtless with an under
standing as to their objective point
be it Washington or Salt Lake city"
THE move is but a craze, and will
shortly exhaust itself, and then the
tide may turn westward again. We
have profitably as we'll as pleasantly
enjoyed our stay here, and as General
Manager Dodge has just wired me that
the train tonight goes through to Dem
yer. the roads now being repaired after
the heavy rains, we will start east in
the morning. The Rio Grande Western
is doing fairly well, all considered, and
we look forward to better times-thal
will keep our spirits until realized
