was this:
In the spring of that year, in view
of insufferable conditions, he had
made such representations to the
Interior Department at Washington
that he had been instructed, per-
sonally, to make a contract for the
beef supplies al his agency. He
had made such contract with a firm
of the Texas Panhandle country.
This company of stockmen had the
reputation of making good in the
terms of any agreement. Hitherto
contracts had been made through
Superintendent of Indian agencies,
who had stood in with the con-
tractors to the detriment both of the
quality and the quantity of the
cattle furnished. Naturally McGi1-

had implicated only the cattlemen,

all moving herds. They had Sue

II loyes the man who, when things 90

With : heart that beats to the pulsing
treads Of the liiied leagues Of truth;
The world Is his, and it waits for him,
and IL leaps to hear the ring
or this blow he strikes and the wheels
he turns and the hammers he
dares to swing;
1t likes the forward look in his face,
tho poise of his noble head,
And the onward lunge of his tireless
will and the sweep of his dauntless
tread
Hnrrah FOR the manly man who comes
with the sunlight on his face,
And the strength to do, the will to dare
and the courage to find his place.
The world delights in the manly man,

When the manly man goes forth to
hold his own on land or sea!
