    CATTLE CAPITOL: MISREPRESENTED ENVIRONMENTS, NINETEENTH CENTURY SYMBOLS OF POWER, AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE TEXAS STATE HOUSE, 1879-1888 Michael M. Miller, B.A., M.L.S. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2011 APPROVED: F. Todd Smith, Major Professor Guy Chet, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History James D. Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Miller, Michael M. Cattle Capitol: Misrepresented Environments, Nineteenth Century Symbols of Power, and the Construction of the Texas State House, 1879-1888. Master of Arts (History), May 2011, 127 pp., bibliography, 129 titles. State officials, between 1882 and 1888, exchanged three million acres of Texas Panhandle property for construction of the monumental Capitol that continues to house Texas government today. The project and the land went to a Chicago syndicate led by men influential in business and politics. The red granite Austin State House is a recognizable symbol of Texas around the world. So too, the massive tract given in exchange for the building, what became the “fabulous” XIT Ranch, also has come to symbolize the height of the nineteenth century cattle industry. That eastern and foreign capital dominated the cattle business during this period is lesser known, absorbed by the mythology built around the Texas cattle-trail period – all but at an end in 1885. This study examines the interaction of Illinois Republicans and Texas Democrats in their actions and efforts to create what have become two of Texas’s most treasured symbols.
