Passing of the Cowboy. (Chicago-Record Herald. )

Joseph G. Mccoy was credited in ' the brief dispatch noting his death the other day, with having 'laid out the 1oO0-mile trail from Texas to Abilene, Kan. over which more than 10,000,- 900 cattle were driven.'' Whether Ie was really the first to drive herd of "longhorns" over that truly his- toric highway, scene of the hughest pastoral movement ever known, it seems clear that of that epic age of the plains he could say: All of this I saw. and of much was 1 part. Made by nature for cattle breeding nroducing in good years ninety-hvo calves to each one hundred cows, the Texas grazing lands at the close of the civil war were tenanted by mi- lions of cattle without defiite market or determinate value. Demand Tor an outlet was imperative, and the only l way was to the north. The building ! of the Kansas Pacific railway made 1 Abilene and Ellsworth the great meet i ing points of the locomotive and the ! 'longhorn.'
 Then opened the age of the cattle 1 baron and the cowboy, and the adding | to American life of types which will l long occupy the pen of the romancer. 1 It was not merely marketing; it was also an exodus. From Texas came the pressure that swept the Indian aside and destroyed the bison herds. Owirg to climatic conditions Texas did lot mature steers ready for the butchers block. But, transp1anted to the north and double wintered' the "longhorn" took on flesh like a native" The climax of the period came in 1884, when over 300 herds, or nearly S00,- 900 head, crossed the Red river, bound for the new northwest, requiring for their guiding and guarding about 4000 men and over 30,000 horses. It was work for men ready to live hard and often die suddenly It was a time when fortunes were won fast an faded swiftly. It fastened upon the popular imagination the figure of the cowboy beside that of the '49ers. It had it's heroes and it's williams and it's bards. A Texas college professor has collected their rude songs. It has found, in way, its vistorian in Andy Adams, whose Log of a Cowboy" ''The Outlet" and Reed Anthony" are fiction only in frame and all fact in the picture. It did not last long for Joseph Mccoy, not yet S0' had seen it alI from eager beginning to valiant flower and inglorious end in a m altitude of sordid and often bloody little feuds.
 The old order has changed givi':g place unto the new. The swelling tides of human life have swept over the range" It is, perhaps fifteen years since a "longhorn" was seen in Chicago stockyards. The cattle baron has become a feeder as we'll as a breeder. The cowboy is no longer throned upon his broncho with all the boundless plains for his kingdom. He has become a prosaic tender of cattle within a fence. His limitations arc seen on the stage, but the men who 'rode the trail'' from San Antonio to Dodge and on to Buford and the Canadian line are no more Some stil, live, of course, but they are growing old. Soon all who lived the epic of the plains will be gone, and only from the printed page and the dis torted reflections of the stage shall we know of that free life under the sun and the stars. ..1
