In revising the land laws it is not going
to be necessary TO take into consideration
the cattle baron as he has been known
on the western range for years past. His
day is done and most OF them have al
ready discovered it. The cattle baron
Of the future is the man who owns a
ranch and from 1000 to 5000 head OF
cattle. There may be few herds OF 6, 900
head, but the herds OF 25yOO0 and $4,000
will never retarn. Take Texas for in
stance, where land leasing is in vogue.
1t is the man with few hundred head
that is conducting the business. 1t will
be found In most instances that whore
there are any large herds left, they are
mostly running on open range in some
adjoining state or territory. The few
remsining big herds are being rapidly
cut down and the great ranches are
being divided and sub divided among
hundreds OF small stock farmers. One
man with $1,000 range cattle cannot com
pete with 80 men. with 1000 head OF we'll
bred cattle each. So in figuring over
the land problem. 1t is the stock farmer
that is 10 be taken into consideration.

PORTO RICO COUNCIL.
Judge Holt Decides II Is No More sub
.ject to Injunction than u. >. Senate.

San Juan, Porto Rico Feb. l6,-Judge
William II, Holt. United states district
Judge for the district Of Porto Rico, has
decided that the executive council oil
Porto Rico is not more subject TO IN
junction than the Senate of the United
States. This decision was given In a
test case whereby the Usera brothers
of Ponce, proceeded against the execu-
tive council and w Il. II. Lothrop and
applied for an Injunction restraining
Mr. Lothrop from working under a
trolley franchise in Ponce granted In
January. the Usera Bros, claiming GER
tain vested rights, which the franchise
violated.
The application for the injunction was
denied on two grounds? first, that the
executive council is a legislative body,
even when dealing with franchises over
which It has jurisdiction exclusive OF
the house Of delegates and, second that
vested rights did not exist before the
American occupation.
The Isera Bros. viii appeal to the
Supreme Court against the order deny
inc the Injunction. The final injunction
is awaited with interest by many dis
arrolnted investors. The matter Is I'M
portant to franchise-seekers as II
touches all grants made by the council
