mexico is fast becoming the great
cattle country of the American CONT
lent, and Northern Mexico is the ideal
cattle country of Mexico" said G. B.
McDermott, of Nacozari, who was in
Houston yesterday. ''As the farmers
and sheepmen have forced the cattle
men of the great Southwest of the
United States to move their ranges,
they are naturally seeking the most
favorable localities, and Northern
Mexico seems to appeal more forcibly
to them than any other section. Cat
tie are being moved rapidly into Mex
leo from the United States, and the
'eattlemen of Mexico are now paying
more attention to their herds than
formerly, with the result that an ex-
cellent quality of beef is being built
up in the republic. Houston Post.

torn and lacerated every time they
tried to make an arrest or clear the
streets.

hours, and the situation became criti-

RIGHT SHALL RULE.

Short is the triumph of evil,
Long Is the reign of right,
The men who win by the aid Of sin,
The nation that rules by might,
The party that lives by corruption,
The trlckster, the knave, the thief;
May thrive for time on the fruits Of
crime,
But their seeming success is brief.
Sheer, if you will, at honor;
Make virtue theme for jest;
Reflect on the man who strives as he can
To seek and to do the best;
Make goodness butt for Islander,
And offer excuse for vice;
Proclaim the old lie, the corruptionist's
cry,
That every man has his price.
Yet know that the truth shall triumph.
That evil shall find its doom;
That the cause of right, though subdued
by might,
Shall break from the strongest tomb;
That wrong, though it seems to triumph.
Lasts only for day,
While the cause of truth has eternal
youth
And shall rule Ger the world for ave.
