Ticks and Politics..

1.-The indications are that the state
quarantine regulations will be one
of the leading issues of in the next
state election in Texas" said a pro-
minent Panhandle stockman. Gall
OF Western Texas is agitated over
the matter at present and there is
no other question that is of such
vital Importance, or is attracting so
much attention as this one. The
live stock sanitary board of the state
is determined that tick-infected cat
tie shall not be moved across the
quarantine line into that part of the
state which is above the line and
free from ticks. Below the line
there r hundreds of thousands of
cattle and practically no grass.
Above the line there are plenty Of
cattle and an abundance Of grass.
This condition was brought about
largely by the drought which. pre-
vented the growth Of grass in a large
part of Western Texas.
THE state board has the backing
OF the cattlemen in the Farmland e
who are outside the quarantine dis
trict. They do not want ticky cat
tie brought into this part of the
state, as it would mean a heavy loss
to them. They would have to fight
the tick, and if their cattle became
infested would have. to send them to
the quarantine divisions of the mar.
kets and sell them at lower prices
than they would bring if free from
ticks. These cattlemen haye sub.
scribed literally to assist the live
stock sanitary beard ia enforcing its
inspection rules, which require a
rigid examination at the quarantine
line and the exclusion of all infested
cattle. Thousands upon thousands
of cattle have thus been confined to
the area within the quarantine line
where grass is scarce, while their
owners have sought in vain to Sc.
cure permission to move them to the
land of plenty.
while the conditions are bad
now, they will be wor after Jan.
nary 1. On that date the movement
Of cattle across the line will be stop
ped entirely by the Texas authori
ties. II win make no difference
whether they are free from ticks d
not. They can, after January 1

The sheepmen Of Sweetwater an

The sheepmen of Sweetwater and
and Carbon counties in Wyoming
propose to lease 100000 acres at an
annual rental of i cent per acre and
it is under stood that the railroad
will accept his.proposition.
Each sheepman will be assessed at
the rate Of $50 per year for every
8 600 head of sheep ranged on the
tract. While nothing has been said
about the government land, still it
is understood that by leasing every
alternate section Of railroad land
the sheepmen will also control the
government land, thereby giving
them over 1,00O,0 900 acres Of fine
range. r is expected that the deal
will be closed up in a few days. The
land will then be divided among the
