There ain't nobody wants to buy the Circle Bar except me." "Why?" persisted Hollis. "I reckon you know that too," laughed Dunlavey. "It ain't no secret. The Cattlemen's Association is running things in this here county and it ain't wanting anyone to buy the Circle Bar except me. And nobody is fool enough to antagonize the Association. That's the why, if you want to know real bad."
Your father recognized this thievery as the work of the Cattlemen's Association and he fought back. "A number of times he changed his brands but each time the company checkmated him. To illustrate: Your father changed his brand to appear thus:" The judge drew again on the paper. "That is the 'Wine-Glass' brand.
They've been hustled and humped along till they've lost heart, most of 'em, and I reckon they doubt now whether they're goin' to be let stay here from one day to another. "Cattlemen's kicked 'em out of one place, sheepmen out of another, till this state ain't got no farms the only thing that it needs.
"If you were endowed with the average foresight you would be able to see that things cannot always go on the way they have. The law must come. It is inevitable. Its coming will be facilitated by such organizations as the Cattlemen's Association and by such men as you. Back in the East the forces of Good and Bad are battling. The forces of Good will be victorious.
He had not meant to take his life away in that hasty shot, but since it had happened so, he knew that it had been his own deliverance. Macdonald stripped the garment back and looked at Dalton's hurt.

As the eh president of the eh Cattlemen's Shakespearian eh Reading Circle, I am asked to present to eh Miss Spencer a slight token eh of our esteem, and eh to express our pleasure at eh being permitted," he bowed to the choking Mr. Moffat, "eh to participate in this eh most glorious occasion." He stepped forward, and dropped into Miss Spencer's lap a small plush-covered box.
The Scotchman was vaguely uneasy without a definite reason for his anxiety. Only last night Cullison had told him not a single bank in town would advance him a dollar. Now he had money in plenty. Where had he got it? "No hurry at all, Luck. Pay when you're good and ready." "That's now." "Because I'll only put it in the Cattlemen's National. It's yours if you need it."
He found nothing of that character. After a time he took up a pen and began to write. Long ago he had decided that in the first issue of the paper he would attack the Cattlemen's Association. Judge Graney had ridden out to the Circle Bar on the previous Saturday afternoon, remaining over Sunday, and accompanying Hollis on the return trip Monday morning.
Wade briefly explained his attitude toward the Rexhills and added that their cause would not be helped by violence toward the Senator, who was a big man at Washington, and might stir the authorities into action on his behalf if he could prove personal abuse. The noise that would be made by such a happening might drown out the justice of the cattlemen's claim.
"You have heard only the cattlemen's side of the story, Colonel Landcraft," said Macdonald, with patience and restraint. "You know that every man who attempts to build a fence around his cabin in this country, and strikes a furrow in the ground, is a rustler according to their creed."
