The Famous Red Ride

These men, however, had been engaged in
the same kind Of work as their predecessors,
and they went about it in the same way. The
most famous exploit of the Rangers occurred
about 80 years ago. when John Ireland was
Governor. Thieves and murderers were
crossing the border then as now. They did
not call them nsurrectonsts. nor did they
apply any other euphemistc names to them
No one in Texas had any illusions about
them. Governor Ireland decided to rid the
State of them. and sent for Captain Lee
Hail. the commander of the Rangers. The
captain found the Governor in his office IN
his shirt sleeves
II sent for you, Lee" the Governor said
because things have come to such a pass
along the border that no decent man can live
or travel in that part of the State with safety
1 want you TO clean it up. Can you do it?"
II can" Hall replied.
IAN right-go ahead" the Governor said
These were the only orders issued, but Hall
knew what was TO be done. He began his
plans at once, and within week started on
what has come to be known as the Red
Ride"
He used the whole force of Rangers, which
he divided into squads OF from two to four
men, and formed them in a straight line run
ming at right angles with the Rio Grande
into the State. The squads We're stationed
from 200 yards to mile apart, and they ex-
tended into the river country for 20 miles.
The advance began at Brownsville. This 20.
mile line Of picked and courageous men
swept the country clean OF all undesirables
as they moved onward in their relentless
course. When they eamped for the night
there was no suspicious character left alive
behind them. How many men were killed
will never be known, for no one kept count.
Within about six weeks from the time OF
their start they arrived at FL Paso without
the loss Of a single man, and that part Of
Texas was quiet ana undisturhed for a long
while afterward

MERCILESSNESS OF
TEXAS RANGERS
The Famous Force Took Interpa-
tional Law Into It's Own Hands
and Got the Border
Bandits

TT ANY ONE harbors doubts about the
J. value of that sort of efficiency which
arises from the training of specially qualified
men for a specific task he will find his un-
certainty dissipated by the most casual study
of the history of the Texas Rangers.
This body of peace officers shares with the
Canadian Northwest Mounted Police and the
Pennsylvania State Constabulary the distinc-
tion of being mercilessly persistent in It's
pursuit of offenders and in achieving the dis
tinction of never giving up the chase so long
as the man it is after Is uncaught. The act
creating the Rangers was passed shortly
after the Mexican War. 1t states that the
force is to be organized "for the protection
of the frontier against maraudng and thiev
ing parties and for the suppression of law.
lessness and crime throughout the State"
There have been as many as 400 men in the
force. At present there are only 92, divided
into four companies, each commanded by
captain. They act under the direct com.
mands of the Governor, when they are within
communicable distance of him. Otherwise
they use their best discretion.
The way they use their discretion was illus
trated late last summer when three Rangers
and three unofficial citizens set out to free
the lower Rio Grande Valley of Mexican
marauders. They rode through the wilder
ness of mesquite trees prickly pear and
cactus. The whole countryside was quiver
ing with the heat. The animals that lived
in the bush were silent and the4 only life to
be seen was now and then a chaparral cock
that had been disturbed and had fled after
the fashion of it's kind down the trail ahead
of the horsemen.
In the midst of this burning silence the
Ranger who was leading the band suddenly
halted and pointed to thin column of smoke
rising straight in the air.
1T is a campfire" he remarked softly.
The men dismounted and walked beside
their horses, making no sound. After a time
they came upon small open place beside the
trail where they found two MeXicans armed
with rifles and loaded revolvers. The men
were questioned briefly. The questioner de-
cided that they were outlaws, and left them
dead beside the trail and passed on. Not long
after 1t became known that the Rangers were
acting in this way General Funston declared
that the whole border was under martial law,
and the Federal troops displaced the Texan
authorities in protecting the frontier.
