:10:02
when we were younger.
:10:04
Saddens me l didn't.
:10:06
DOUGLAS: Can you imagine
a man who owns all that...
:10:09
Oh, and mines, too.
l forgot to mention them...
:10:12
All that, and he's begrudging
poor people a measly...
:10:16
a measly 160 acres.
:10:20
That right, Mr. McLintock?
:10:22
You begrudge us
a little free land?
:10:24
There's no such thing
as free land.
:10:26
lf you make
these homesteads go,
:10:28
you'll have earned
every acre of it,
:10:30
but you just can't make 'em go
on the Mesa Verde.
:10:34
God made that country
for buffalo.
:10:36
lt serves pretty well for
cattle, but it hates the plow,
:10:40
and even the government
should know...
:10:42
that you can't farm 6,000 feet
above sea level.
:10:47
Any trouble, Mr. McLintock?
:10:48
No trouble, Sheriff.
:10:58
How about you, Douglas?
:11:00
Douglas?
Just plain Douglas, eh?
:11:04
And you call him Mr. McLintock.
:11:07
Why?
:11:09
Well, Douglas, l guess
it's because he earned it.
:11:15
Mr. McLintock?
:11:16
Yeah?
:11:18
l'm a good hand with cattle,
Mr. McLintock.
:11:20
l'd like a job.
:11:21
Well, you look strong enough.
:11:23
You come in
with those sooners?
:11:25
Well, yes, sir, but we don't
have a homestead.
:11:27
G. W: Can't use you.
:11:44
Tough life, ain't it, sonny?
:11:47
Well, ain't much future in being
a farmer around these parts.
