Why were there conflicts between farmers and cattlemen in the West during the 1800s? Cattlemen intruded on unfenced farmlands. C
attlemen kept the railroads from building where farmers needed them. Farmers fenced off grazing lands that they did not own. Farmers created a shortage of the barbed wire cattlemen needed to keep their herds safe.
Conflicts happened in many states. There were the so-called the Fence Cutting Wars. At some point, cattlemen started to use barbed wire to fence their lands; farmers or smaller cattlemen saw this as improper taking of public lands and an obstacle to roads and began cutting the fences.
I believe the answer is: constitution in Article I
The article I of the constitution directly state the power of the Congress along with its limitation. They specify that congress is the one that has the power to create the laws in united states and they have to be separated into two sections (the senates and the house of representatives)
