:29:01
Let's you and me ride down
to the sump after supper, huh?

:29:05
Where's that?
:29:06
A shady place
over by Hidden Canyon.

:29:09
The water's good and deep now,
almost over your head.

:29:13
You mean go swimming...together?
:29:16
l'll bring along my guitar,
play us some music.

:29:19
You got a nerve.
:29:20
The moon will be
pretty near full.

:29:22
You didn't buy me,
just giving me a horse.

:29:25
l'll be waiting for you
after supper out by the bell.

:29:29
l won't go.
:29:32
l won't!
:29:40
Listen to this for poppycock.
:29:43
''And the benefits
to be derived...

:29:46
''by the small ranchers
from the new railroad...

:29:50
''are too numerous
to need recounting here.''

:29:54
''Small ranchers.''
:29:55
lgnorant, nasty,
spoiling the open range...

:29:58
with their measly fences.
:29:59
And say, Jesse.
l should have told you before.

:30:02
Them surveyors had the gall...
:30:04
to come traipsing
over Spanish Bit...

:30:07
with them infernal
spyglasses of theirs.

:30:09
l almost fired
that new foreman Ken...

:30:12
for letting them on the place.
:30:15
Shouldn't have
done that, Senator.

:30:17
Why not?
:30:18
Because it wasn't Ken
who let them on the place.

:30:20
Nobody else would
have had the nerve.

:30:22
l was the one that told them
they could do it.

:30:24
-Have you gone plumb crazy?
-l don't think so.

:30:27
l thought it might be
a good idea to cooperate...

:30:29
and have the tracks where
they'd do the most good.

:30:31
Good? What do you mean good?
:30:34
lt's getting rather cool,
don't you think?

:30:35
For one thing...
:30:37
the railroad will bring
new people, a school.

:30:40
Paradise Flats will become
a real town instead of--

:30:42
And that same railway
will ship...

:30:44
a lot of emigrants
from up north down here...

:30:47
and they'll start in voting
and putting in taxes.

:30:51
lt's your ranch.
:30:53
l was just trying to be helpful.
:30:59
Spanish Bit's going to
belong to you someday--
