Fellow delegates, like all of you I've listened in awe and admiration to the magnificent oratory of the honorable Major Cassius St...arbuckle, the cattlemen's mouthpiece, the lowing herds. But seriously, under the spell of his eloquence I could see once again the vast herd of buffalo and savage redskin roaming our beautiful territory with no law to trample them except the law of survival, the law of the tomahawk and the bow and arrow. But then with the westward march of our nation came the pioneer and the buffalo hunter, the adventurous and the bold. And the boldest of these were the cattlemen who seized the wide-open range for their own personal domain, and their law was the law of the hired gun. Now, now today have come the railroads and the people, hard- working citizens, the homesteader, the shopkeeper, the builder of cities. We need roads to join those cities, dams to store up the waters of the Picket Wire, and we need statehood to protect the rights of every man and woman, however humble.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Do you remember how old Ford was always writing how Conrad suffered so when he wrote? How it was un metier de chien etc. Do you su...ffer when you write? I don't at all.

It becomes his duty to pour the coffee for the outfit. "Come and get her before I throw her out" is the time honored mess call.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
This is the only "wet" community in a wide area, and is the rendezvous of cow hands seeking to break the monotony of chuck wagon f...ood and range life. Friday night is the "big time" for local cowboys, and consequently the calaboose is called the "Friday night jail."LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
During the cattle drives, Texas cowboy music came into national significance. Its practical purpose is well known--it was used pri...marily to keep the herds quiet at night, for often a ballad sung loudly and continuously enough might prevent a stampede. However, the cowboy also sang because he liked to sing.... In this music of the range and trail is "the grayness of the prairies, the mournful minor note of a Texas norther, and a rhythm that fits the gait of the cowboy's pony."LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
