NEW LAW LIMITS
EX-OFFICIO FEES
Austin. Tex , Nov. 24. In an opinion
today the attorney generals depart
ment held that under the provisions
of the amendment to the fee law. which
brcomes effecUve on December 1, all
countv officers named in the act are
urder the provisions of the law.
The opinion further holds that while
tl commissioner's court Is authorized
to allow ex-officlo compensation to
county officers, an ex-officlo fee can
not be allowed so as to increase the
compensation of the officer beyond the
maximum amount named in the law.
In other words an ex-officio fee cannot
- b allowed in any case where the of
ficial is entitled to and collects oxcess
fees under the terms of the act.
The attorney geenral's department is
being flooded w ith inquiries from all
over the state relative to the construc
tion of the countv offices fee bill,
which changes entirely the method of
compensating county officers.

Insist that Their Stockyards
Are Nobody's Business;
Defy the City.
John Dyer, the attorney for the El
Paso Union Stock Yards company,
which is owned and cpntroled W
Morris Co., in his talk before the city
council, Monday afternoon, attempted
to ridicule the idea that the women or
the city had protested against the loca
tion of nuisances in the Cotton addi
tion. He accused those who had signea
the protest against u'"""" "t
nuisances within the city " 'at
tempting to hide behind the skirts of
women and Intimated that it was no
business of the women of this citj, in
his estimation, what Morris & Co.
should choose to erect on the bit or.
ground 'they had purchased In the Cot
ton addition.
Why fchould Women Dare!
His treatment of the idea that women
should dare to presume to say that tney
objected to the creation and main
tenance of a nuisance within the city
limits when his clients, me imguif, u
cause wealthy, the overbearing and ar
rogant Morris & Co.. was in line wltn
his treatment of the general public -ol
El Paso and the mayor and the city
council when he stated that his con
cern did not have to have a franchise
from the city to erect stock yards and
that though at first he had said they
would ask a franchise ho had made up
his mind to proceed without the for
mality or the courtesy of asking the
city fathers whether or not such pro
ceeding had the sanction of the city
government.
A DomhoJiter FurloilK.
In the matter of bombast and sneer
ing invective the original bombastes
furtoso could have learned something
from Mr. Dyer had he been Present
Monday afternoon to .listen to the lat
ter gentleman's "argument In oppo
sition to the proposition that the city
government of the city of El Paso had
any rights at all where they might
rnnfliot with not the rights but the
desires of Morris & Co., the great, pow
erful packers.
He was not there to make argument,
however, for the reason that his cause
admits of no argument. He was there
to "muddy the waters" and to prejudice
the minds of the mayor and tie mem
bers of the city council, if possible,
against the cattlemen who have the
temerity to insist that they should
have any voice at all in the conduct of
the cattle business of El Paso, which
through long years of patient toll and
much privation, they have succeeded In
building up to a point where Morris &
Co. finally sees it might be profitable
for them to control. It is doubtful if
he succeeded
InNlNtcd Cattlemen Were Dupes.
Notwithstanding that Capt. Brack
and Harris Walthall. the attor
neys for the cattlemen, explicitly stated
that only cattlemen were interested
in the proposition to have all stock
yards moved outside the city limits,
where there would be room for compe
tition and where the business might be
anchored permanently, with ample
room for Its growth and the encourage
ment ot the erection 01 pacing uuuses
nil nthpr industries conducive to its
growth, Mr. Dyer continued to insist
that the cattlemen were being used as
dupes and that the mayor and city
council were being Imposed upon. That
the mayor, or members of the city coun
cil, or anyone else present at the great
meeting of cattlemen were led away
from the main point at issue by Mr.
Dyer's sophistry, his bombast and his
aneers. Is not believed.
What the City Did.
In the course of his talk. Mr. Dyer
referred frequently to a 20-acre tract
owned by the city of El Paso in the
vicinity of the 30-acre stockyards tract
recently purchased by his client, and
suggested that if the cattlemen were
really in earnest in the matter of en
gaging in the stockyards business they
could purchase that 20 acres from the
city. If they did not care to buy other
lands In the vicinity which he knew
were for sale.
Mr. Dyer might have been asked,
had it been thought of at the time,
why If the city government were not
fearful of the smells which mignt do
borne b south winds over the entire
ciiy, it did not erect its garbage, dis
posal plant upon that little tract in
stead of buying lands for the purpose
on the eastern edge of the city, south
or the Jfranklin canal and' close to the
river on lands bordering, in fact, upon
the district sought to be set aside for
stcckyards purposes by the opponents
of stockyards within the city limits.
May Iluild Fertilizer Factory.
Mr. Dyer, on behalf of his client,
made a verbal offer of $3000 for the
i lght to dispose of all animals dying
fri.m natural or accidental causes by
comersion into fertilizer. If Mr. Dyer
will reduce his offer to writing there
a chance that the city may accept
his offer. It is fair to presume that
if Mr. Dyer secures the contract to
rrinvert nil dead animals throughout
'to citv into fertilizers that his fac
tory therefor will be erected upon the
little 30 acre plot now owned by his
clients, within a few blocks of the
heart of the city, and that the people
of El Paso will be required to tolerate
the flies that will be bred therein and
the stenches that will emanate there
from for all time to come, because the
great,, the powerful, the arrogant Mor
rife Co. desires it
Cnttlemcn Arc Aroused.
There is little doubt that Mr. Dyer
was moved to his peculiar line of "ar
gument" by the presence of so many
of the real (attlemen, the cattle pro
ducers, the builders of the cattle busi
ness of the southwest, the men who
liae helped make El Paso the great
city it is at the meeting of protest
against allowing his clients to arbi
trarily deprive them of the profltB of
their industry and their thrift by ar
rogantly and without leave taking
over control of the stockyards business
i:i the city of El Paso. It was a sur
prise to Mr. Dyer. He did not dream
fiat the cattlemen were so thoroughly
erased as their .presence at the spe
cial meeting of the city council in
such large numbers demonstrated.
Felt Himself Slipping.
He no doubt felt that in spite of
the arrogant assumption of authority
by his clients the ground was slipping
from under his feet. He probably felt
inmelled bv his fpnrs tn sav to the city
council, in substance at least, "We did
not ask your permission but we are
there; we have acquired vested rights;
what are you going to do about It?
Having acquired vested rights, though
we did not ask your permission, you
will Invade those rights at your peril."
Whnt Cattlemen Wnnt.
The city council was assured by the
representatives of the cattlemen that
the only object the latter had In enter
ing the stockyards business in El Paso
was to preserve for themselves an open
market, where competition would be
free and untrammeled and where they
would be in no danger of being de
prived of their just profits for the
benefit of an organization which had
already monopolized the stockyards
business of a number of eastern pack
ing centers, to the great detriment of
the cattle producers of the country.
The cattlemen believe that El Paso
is destined to become a great packing
center and believe to that end It vM
be necessary to concentrate tho stock
yards business at some easily accessible
location outside the city limits, where
packing houses and other Industries
dependent upon stockyards for tholr
raw material will find ample room in
which to grow.
Must Oo Together.
It was pointed out that packing
houses must be located in proximity
to stockyards. While stockyards might
be permitted to be established within
the city limits, it was doubted that
packing houses and fertilizer factories,
with their noieome smells and obnox
ious fumes and gases, would ever be
permitted bv an city government to
be located within the citv limits That
would hae a tendency, It was believed.

Can nnsten Prosperity.
The erection of packing houses and
factories for the conversion of offal
into merchantable by-products would be
greatly hastened If the city council
were to bend its energies at this time
toward forcing them to be concentrated
outside the city limits, where ample
ground room for all might be secured.
The cattlemen want packing houses,
because It means to them better prices
for their cattle, through a wider, freer
nnftn market.
Admits Railroad Contract.
Mr. Dyer, in his talk before the coun
cil Monday afternoon, very boldly ad
mitted that his client, "orris & Co..
had secured an advantageous location
and were further buttressed by exclu
sive contracts with the railroads cen
tering in the city of El Paso to handle
all cattle carried by them, but he denied
that this was a monopoly. He said
that if the cattlemen were honest in
their intentions of going into the cattle
business they could find land in the
Cotton Addition at S1500 an acre upon
which to locate stockyards and had
they been forehanded enough they

The Battle thatPutthe United States on the Map is Illustrated in Lamed's
History by a Full-Page Reproduction of a Great Historical Painting:
"The Battle of Teutoberger Forest"
A-gustua Cesar sent one day three
legions of his veterans under Quin
tilius VaniSyinto Teuton Land.
"Go, scourge me those yellow
bearded barbarians!" he cried;
"Come back a conqueror, or show
me never your face again!" So
forth fared Roman Varus into deep
and narrow valleys, through dark
and fearsome woods, o'er steep and
rugged mountains traversed by icy
torrents, till he came to the dark
shadows of the Teutoberger Wald.
Deep within the fort waited him
joungHermann.chief of the Cherus
can Saxons, who, when that morning
sun's first rays gilded the glittering
lances and flashing armor of the
Roman soldiery, kissed farewell his
bride, sweet-lipped Thusnelda and
went his way into that day's fierce
fighting.
Farther and farther into the wilder
ness of giant trees, with their
gnailed and knotted trunks, march
ing beneath thick shade of leaf and
intertwisted limb, wound the sinu
ous army of Varus, like some huge
Midgard Serpent, slithering along
in quest of prey.
And now came swamps and marshes
sunken and sodden with flood-time
waters to stop the march of men
weighted with weapons and heavy
armor. Nor could they goto right
or left, for that there came such
blinding showers of spear and dart,
and fiendish faces all set with flam
ing beards and savage eyes that
glowed with hate.
And then passed word from rank to
rank that all the wild barbarip host
were in their rear, hacking and hew
ing and cutting like demons; and
that none escaped.
Came a little island once more with
firm footing and fast, and here hud
dled together the Roman legiona
ries and made last stand all armed
with helmet, cuirass, greave and
shield. In vain they hurled their
heavy javelins; futile and of no use
their short sharp swords. And when
at last the angry Teuton gods

Fierce Hermann pressed through

of shame, he fell upon his sword,
and his ghost passed on. And
when the news came to Rome, as
in good time it did, Augustus
Csesar, in grief and great despair,
