Old Texos Cottle Trolls
Linked North and South

GREATEST factor in the eco
nomic recovery OF Texas
after the Civil War was the move
ment OF millions of Texas cattle,
in vast drives, north to Kansas
railroads and markets. OF equal
importance was the bond created
between North and South in the
development OF the great cattle
industry of the West.
Most of the trail herds followed
the Chisholm trail, a route first
marked by IL companies of U. S.
Army troops. retreating in 1861
from frontier outposts TO Fort
Leavenworth. later by Jesse CHS
holm, half-Cherokee dian
trader, for whom the trail was
named.
The extension OF the Kansas
Pacific railroad to Abilene. in
1867. provided market for Texas
longhorns, and for 20 years. huge
herds, numbering from 1000 to
5000. plodded slowly northward.
From all parts of Texas and as
far south as Matamorss. Mexico,
the trails converged toward Abb
lene and later, Dodge City. An
estimated s.2so. 900 head of cat
tie were driven along these
routes.
In the 's0s the drives were ex-
tended to Wyoming. Nebraska
and Montana as cattle raising
spread over the northwest.
Before the end of the decade,
however, most of the range was
fenced, the railroads could haul
as cheaply as owners could drive.
and the Texas cattle drives were
al end.
The epic OF the trail herd is de-
picted on the u. S. 81 stamp
above, black. enlarged. showing
western cattle in a storm. The
stamp is one of the Trans issis-
s;ppi Omaha Exposition series

They have peace guarantees offered

for ner Hapsburg. She has him, and,
within month, negotiations will have
commenced with regard to her east

ly becoming an enslaved country, rul-

"Come to think it over" Mattress

"the only country where a certain a
mount of trouble may be expected is

There is a blazing press against us.
The Cabinet will probably have to re-
sign and the government go to the
country. The peace coup, however,
will have been accomplished. The
deed is signed and the action of the
government ratified. In my opinion,
the election of Fifty Years of Peace
with which the new National Party
will appeal to the country will make
their position invulnerable."

grunted.
Matresser smiled. "There is more
narrow thinking among the Services
than in any other patriotic body of
Englishmen in the world" he declar-
ed. every day which passes, how
ever, will help to place this whole
problem in better perspective. 1t
involves a gerat sacrifice on England's
part, but I think the people will decide
as our government did, that it was
worth while.

master Of the house continued with
a twinkle i'll his eyes, eff this draw
ing more closely together of our var
ious countries should not result in
a great many international alliances.
And so I am now going to ask you to
drink two toasts.'
They stood around with expectant
faces. One felt that the pilots fin
gers were itching to grasp goblet
instead OF the frail stem of his cock
tail glass.
81 shall ask you first to drink the
health of my sister Lady Ann Mat
resser and His Serene Highness Prince
Maurice Won Reisensach, and as soon
as Burrows has refilled your glasses,
I shall be honored if you will drink
also to myself and my alliance with
Baroness Elisabeth Stamier."
There was unbounded enthusiasm
in the little circle around the Coun-
tess of Matresser's chair. Her son,
with his arms resting lightly upon
Elisabeth's shoulder stood on one side
and Ann and her fiance, hand in hand,
upon the other.
Thus did this joyous company echo
and re-echo the spirits of peace, good
will, and high hopes that were thrill
ing the whole world on that very day
and that very hour.
