FROM
THE SCENES.
8IDE PLAYS THAT JOHN STARK
MAKES NOTE OF.
Men and Things as Seen from a
Socialist's Viewpoint.
You have noticed in every city
beautiful large dwelling houses.
some of which are occupied a
short time in the year by their
owners who frequently have
houses in other parts and oflen
spend much of their time at the
best hotels. If I should ask you
what the owners worked at, what
kind of a look would I got for an
answer? Go to another part of
the same cily and you will find
some tumbledown, or at best
nootiy equipped shacks. Who
lives there? Oh, only a working
man.
Do you think poverty is ncc
essary? Now don't tell me about
being industrious for the very
rich are all liders, so much so
that they hire someone to invent
ways to pass the time away, uo
you think it is right for the per
son who does the hardest work
should receive the least pay? You
know that is the rule at present
but is it right?
Would it bo an injury to you to
introduce an economic system
where every person would have
equal opportunity? Now don't tell
mo that condition obtains al
present. I was told that when a
child and while I couldn't quite
see it, still I accepted the dogma
and I meet people who still in
sist on the idea. If I could have
had the same opportunity as the
young man who inhei'itted say
five hundred dollars, when I nev
er inherited one cent. I have not
even had the same opportunity, as
as you who had no more than a
common school education. Then
how far I must be behind the
young college man. Ever think of
it in that light? Now as a general
principle the young man receiv
ing the best education gets also
a wad of money or property, lias
such a person a double advantage
over mo?
Not long ago I beard a man who
is on tho public payroll say ho
did not take much interest in
politics. Now the question comes
up is the man ignorant of, what
constitutes politics or did he no
tico tho calloused hands I carry
about and thought that rubbish
would pass for all wool? He also
upheld the good man idea
politics. I suppose lie is the "good
man." I told him I could not tell
what ho would do tomorrow by
what he did yesterday. When I si
a bundle of rotten bonos I will
call that a good man. lie can
spoil his record.
Did you ever stop to think that
sixty-two years ago tho most
western man was elected to Hie
White House? That was then
practically the frontier. Do you
think that was an accident or do
you think no capable man could
bo found anywhero in the West
Now there is something you
might cogitate on if tho wheels
aro not rustod or clogged so they
won't go 'round. While you are
about it think -a little farther as
to why the solid south furnishe
most of the Democratic votes and
no southern man ever gets the
nomination from thai parly.
A well known advertiser says
"There s a reason.

ly years was really repudiated by
his party. Kven Teddy received
an endorsement at the last Nat
ion Republican convention.
In commenting on the prob
ability of many congressmen get
ting a vacation from the people
in November, a noted correspond
enl says: "It isn't going to help
much if wo looso most of the ah
lost men in Congress." That
caused me to wonder Just what
way the water would run. Just
supposing, as a mailer of specu
lation in tho realm of improbable
every man hanging onto a poli
tical teat should gel. jarred loose,
would the laws of gravitation
become unconstitutional; would
tho music be lost to tho birds;
would the scent of the roses cling
to them still?
I hoard a man say polities
don't, bother me" yet lie voted on
election day. Just, what he thot
his vole was for; what it was
worth to him if intelligently used
did not seem lo occur to linn, hut
polities bother the men of groat
affairs. Those industrial captains
know the value of a vole, why
should you prizo it so low?
Both old parties express them
selves as satisfied with the tdeet
ion results in Vermont and Maine
and no complaint comes from
Wall Street, so everybody is hap

they are tho nobodies. They arc
at least not heard from and none
nrn ever elected to otllee I won
der why.
Have you noticed tho referen
dum vote in Ohio? II seems the
revolution is spreading, not real
strong as yet but the adoption
of direct legislation brings the
day much nearer. Also murder in
n legal manner got a set back.
Unfortunately women are still in
the same political class as insane
and criminal persons; never mind
the leaven is working I
The barbed wire fence, the rail
roads and the passing jot the
free range are fast doing for the
cowboy. Only of the railroadless
rang-es of the far southwest can
the real article be found, and with
every year his domain grows
more a'nd more contracted. The
great open range is now shut in
and cut up. Once it extended from
Mexico to Montana, but now ev
ery year it becomes smaller.
Ihe genuine cowboy, born in
ranch house and raised in a sad
die, is by far tho most interesting
study I have found in the south.
west. Out there, far beyond the
railroads, there is but one pur
suit tne ;oy can ioiiow cow
punching and the young Texan
takes to the range as easily and
naturally as does a preacher s son
to vice, and as easily ho assimil
ales the vagabond temperament
of the range. He lives in the sad
die, ho sleeps on the ground. His
life is made up of horse, hat, sad
die and spurs.
Ever an interesting study I
have made it convenient to be
much with them. I have followed
the chuck wagon for days, listen
ed lo stories around their camp
fires, eaten frijoles and bacon
from tin plates, drank pot rock
water, and risked taking on
seam squirrels by rolling in
the same blanket with a wadilie
whose clothes had probably last
been changed wilh the season
and there are only two per year
here. To wo who have been reared
in the north in a country abound
ing with comforts, this life of
endless monotony, one occupat
ion, exposure, hardship and oflen
hunger and thirst makes one
feel sorry for the bright, big
hearted fellows, who aro fast
wearing out their lives in a
sphere bounded by a few coun-
les, each as largo as New York
State.
Noticeably strange to mo when
I first wont into that country, was
the fact that tho cowboys were
so young. I have never seen i
working cowboy over tho forty
five mark. The fact is easily un
derstood now. There are no active
fellows older. It is a pace that
kills. At forty-five one is stiffen
ed in every joint from the expos
ure and constant riding, and un
fit for tho work. But even should
he be proof against this physical
breakdawn, he is no longer of
use, for the reason of having
"horso fright." After about so
many years tho cowboy loses his
nerve and money cannot induce
him to ride a fractious animal
This nervousness is the begin.
ning of tho end, dreaded by the
cowboy, but as sure to come as
old age.
Here is a brief round-up of n
cow boy's life a threo month s
ound-up, we will say. lie has a
cow horso, a native, tough ani
mal that will go almost impos
sible hours without water and
grass; a saddle that has cost
bun from $25 to $150, often fan
ci fully decoratod, and covered
with snake skins; a white broad-
brimmed Stetson sombrero, $12;
a pair of band made, high legged
llodeman boots, $20; fancy bridle
with $15 silver gal leg' bits:
fancy hand-engraved and decor
ated silver spurs; lonther pant
aloons, pair of Navajo blankets,
comforter, plenty of tobacco and
a canteen. This is his outfit and
one in which ho takes great pride.
1 bus equipped ho joins the out
fit, and for threo months he is is
olated from civilization, round
ing up, drifting, branding, rust
ling, foneo riding, hard, ex
hausting, health breaking toil. In
the cold, rainy weather of win
ter when shelter and warmth are
most needed, is Hie time of most
exposuro and hardships. A flash
of lightning, scratching of n
mulch will stainpedo a bunch of
hundreds of cattle, and away
they go in I lie darkness, often
breaking up and scattering over
tit ley square miles. Tho cowboy
jumps from Ins blankets and
without a mouthful of food or
water, gives chase, with no idea
of when ho may again soo Ihe
buck wagon. And often the
liuse compels him to drink slag
nant water from pot rocks, and
keeping warm by burning sien
weisia grass. 11 is food in camp is
an endless round of fnjole, beans.
bacon, biscuit and coffee, with an
occasional can of tomatoes or
orn.
And such is the lffo, year after
year, and lor which he gets n
eoompenso of from $25 to $30
per month. Do you wonder that
when ho does finally have a few-
ays oil he makes for the uear-
st cow town, fills up with booze,
and shoots up the place? I imag
ine ho fools, in an aggrevaled de
gree, the same sensation I used to
ben school was out for night,
and when 1 could not find any
port strenuous enough for a
nt, I would hit some bov over
the head and run. Tho difference
these fellows don't run. They
hit some fellow (o start the
fun and then stay and see it, out.
ntl they call all these town rows
and shooting matches "seeing the
liver lining lo tho clouds."
Let a stranger mix up with a
ow outfit, and while the utmost
hospitably-will be shown him, yet
he will be treated very frigidly
Jor a time at least. As thev after
ward expressed it lo me, thev
wanted to got Die gait of the
maverick." Once let them form
an opinion that you are a city-.
bred Yankee with a hard-boiled
hat, looking down on them in
curiosity from your social emi
nence, and your relations with
them will bo strictly confined to
tho civil "yes, sir" and "no sir"
or you will be tho object of so
many jokes that; you will gladly
shorten your stay. But on the
other hand if a fellow will go it
free and easy, eat the beans with
out shying at hairs, bum tobacco
for cigarettes, drink from the
same canteen and not kick on the
dog flees in his blanket, the boys
will soon vote a "he's all right,"
and you have made friends in the
full meaning of the word, friends
who will stand by you through
thick and thin. They enjoy ans
wering questions, and will take
the utmost pains to explain any
thing you want to know, and I
believe they can make more out
of a simple little joke than any
men on earth. For instance one
afternoon I watched one of the
boys hobble his horse, and just
before we turned in that night
I reminded him he had belter
lake the rope off, thinking he had
forgotten it. "Why," he asked?
"So he can lie down," I replied
and never will they stop telling
this in Sutton county, lexas. And
if a fellow will simply laugh wilh
them, when he makes a break, he
is strictly all right with the
bunch.
Around tho camp fire is where
you see the cowboy at his best
and worse natural. The stories
go from the sublime to the ridi
