self-reliant and resourceful, frequently
eXtricating themselves from difficult
ties, not by fighting but by quick
thinking. Only one thing In warfare
they had forgotten in their long strug-
gle with dual foe, and that was to
surrender. They gave quarter-sOme-
times-but never asked and never ex-
pected ii.
Their leaders were natural leaders,
men who possessed in high degree
the qualities they imired in others
and found essential TO themselves. A
few of these men were John c. Hays,
Ben McCulloch, John S. Ford and the
two ROSES. The ranks were filled
with those courageous ones who loved
and gain.
Did Valiant Service.
In 1915 Texas joined the Union. The
Mexican war followed Immediately,
during which the Rangers performed
such valiant service as scouts and
guerilla fighters with the armies of
Taylor and Scott that they were her
aided rs heroes throughout the nation.
In 1874 the Rangers were reorgan-
lied, six companies of 20 men each.
Put an important change was made In
their status and duties They were to
protect the frontier and fight Indians
as before, but, in addition, they were
given the power of peace officers. On
the northern border they fought Lone
Wolfe, Little Bull and other Comanche
warriors; on the southwest they
guarded the Texas side of the Rio
Grande against Cortina and his band
of cattle thieves; in the interior they
pursued and killed Sam Bass, broke
up the Sutton-Taylor feud and drove
the road agents under cover.
When not more actively engaged
they guarded prisoners, protected
courts and dispersed lynching parties.
The Rangers were busy men In those
days In their double capacity of sol
diers and peace officers they presented
a novel experiment in government, and
one which did not escape criticism
In fact, all the criticism that has ever
been brought against the Texas
Rangers has been brought against
them in their capacity as peace Off
GERS. Be that as 1t may, during the
! ten years following this reorganiza-
tion the Rangers pushed the Indians
to the very limits of Texas, and
at the same time rendered the interior
safe and decent place to live In.
The success of their work was due
largely to the high personal courage
and indomitable spirit of the officers
| and men.
With the passing OF the Indian raids.
the Rangers were relieved of further
purely military responsibility, auG
from 1885 TO the present they have
devoted themselves largely to the
maintenance of law and order within
! the state.
