THE DEAD LINE.

1t runs from yon buttes to the forks
of the creek,
Where the alkali CLEANS like chalk /;
If you're this side, Herder, this time
next week,
It's roll up your bed and walk.
We have showed you the line and have
showed it plain,
And our talks been palmer than all ;
And there's bound to be trouble and
woe and pain
If you're here next time we call.
We have ranged our herds on these
lands for years,
And our range is down below
It's you for your sheep and us for our
steers.
So give us a white mans show.
It's live and let live in this land, old
man,
And none should play all-hog;
So keepin cross the line is the best
est plan,
For there's fightin' when dog eats
dog.
So the line runs here, and the line
runs there.
And pard mark the limits we'll;
For cattle and sheep won't mix, fer
fair.
And tryin' it is raisin' hell.
