No More "Longhorns"

The day Of the Texas "lOnghorn,"
the steer famed for Its breadth Of horn
and lightness Of body, Is past. Today
there probably Is not real fonghorn
in the whole Of Texas, not even In
Pecos valley. where 1t made Its last
stand against the blood Of high breed
ing as practiced by the NOrtherners
who have converted Texas from
raising ground OF horns and speed to
home Of real beef.
The genuine longhorn weighed but
from 600 to TOO pounds, and could
race with a coyote. 1t had descended
from the early cattle Of the Spanlards,
who were the first white settlers Of the
Rio Grande country and the semi
desert lands OF the Southwest. It hos
been years since real lOnghOrn has
been seen on the plains Of Texas.
But the greatest OF all longhOrns
was not killed by man. This steer. a
maverick, a lone Outcast from his
herd, who lived and rOamed alone,
fell prey to wolves In the Devils River
mountains years ago. His horns are
now in San Angelo. These, measuring
eight feet from tip to tip, were found
by COWBOYS.

"CAT WOMAN" DIES
WITH HER KITTENS
Little Old Lady of Brooklyn
Succun,6s to Gas.

Brooklyn.-The little old lady with
all the cats at loo Crystal street,
Brooklyn, passed away. but in her
passing she managed to give the neigh
bors a last biz of mystery to match
the measure of her queer life. She
was found dead in rocking chair in
her kitchen with six dead kittens near
her. Six grown cats staggered weakly
about crying as they suffered from the
gas turned on in several jets by their
mistress.
For several years Miss Jennie Lane
has been the mystery of the nelga-
borhood. Some said she was retired
school teacher, but no one knew any
thing definite. She lived alone and de-
voted herself to the rescue of stray
cats. She never spoke to the neigh
bofs and when the police sought in
formation of her relatives no one
could tell anything of them.
She made careful preparations for
her death, stuffing the windows with
cloth and paper, and then she added
the touch that marked her strange
life. She hung drapery of black
over each front window
Patrolman Frederick Grote in pass
ing The house noticed the drapery and
decided to investigate. He forced the
door and came upon the dead woman.

No Hope Ahead

Whatever may happen in the next
election. one thing is certain: the com
plcxion OF house and senate. politically
will not materially change. And dop-
sters believe that from the standpoint
OF responsibility. the next congress
will be worse than the one just past
il that is possible.
What to dor That is difficult ques-
ton. When interests began long ago
the business OF being represented in
Washington, a precedent was est
abhshed which now makes necessary
the participation OF every legislation
seeking organization at Washington.
Instead OF having congress devoted
TO national affairs looking at problems
from national standpoint. we have
active representatives OF AZ states. each
seeking TO please the folks at home.
Party responsibility is OF the past.
Apparently there is TO be no quick
return TO the older method of conduct
ing business at Washington To-day
we have in Washington. not represe-
tatives and senators for the United
States of America. but senators and
representatives from and for 4S states.
Nothing has undermined party res
possibility and orderly. cohesive pro-
cedure more than the direct primary
has done And the fact that all OF us
dash madly off to Washington to help
frame national policies as we think |
they should be framed hasn't helped |
much. 1t is distressing to think that |
another and new congress can be more
sadly muddled than the past one. But
it seems quite likely.
Politics isn't involved. |, doesn't
make a particle OF difference what
party has a majority in the national
legislative halls. Blocs and cliques and
coteres and Individuals al have definite
programs suited to their own interests
and their constituents to whom they
alone look for approval
Altogether. congress is apparently
trying its best 10 get the same sort OF
a reputation for muddling that most
of our state legislatures enjoy.

More Fine Stuff

her wake are 400 boys and girls who
were enrolled in club work and who
today face the prospect OF seeing
their summers work go bloocy.
"Mr. Theuson," Miss Jennings says
in forceful and clear exposition of
the reasons for her Departure was
continually finding fault with my ex-
pcnse accounts and reminding me that
| was robbing the people and graft
ing on them"

man on the side. Not one of those
dignified vocations convey to him the

other than his own or insofar as any
citizen is entitled to examine them.
Canyon county citizens are getting
tired OF just such stuff. They are
particularly disgusted to be confront
ed almost every day with new evidence
that a premium is placed on just such
business while efficiency and respon-
sibility in Office find opposition and
double crossing for reward.
