Says that a Dollar a Day is
Enough for Labor
efS.
MAKING MUCH OF Statement
Ulster County. Where the Judge Lives.
is ur in Arms Against Him For
His Remark.

tEsopus Dispatch in N. Y. Globe. Oct. eth
There is a good deal of talk in
Ulster county to the effect that
Judge Parker will not be able to
carry his own district, despite his
great personal popularity and the
natural pride his neighbors feel in
having a presidential candidate
among them. Republican leaders
are working tooth and nail to roll
up a good majority and in the last
week they have been making much
use of a story going the rounds
about the judges views on the
subject of wages. In substance it
is nothing more than that he re-
marked some two years ago that
an unskilled laborer was entitled
to 81 a day and no more.
The amount of gossip started by
this revival OF an otfhand contri-
button to economic discussion in
Il corner grocery store is indica-
tive of rural sentiment. and the
precise details with which the
story is embellished in its cam
paign garb show the importance
attached to it by the bucolic man
ayers of the campaign in this part
of the world.
Here is the form in which the
story is given:
Il think that a dollar day is
enough for any man provided that
his work is steady. Any man can
live on that, and that is all I'M
skilled labor is worth. | am sorry
| have to pay moe than that and
wouldn't if we had a better supply
of labor hereabouts."
This statement was made by
Judge Parker in Emory Freer's
store n Saturday two years ago
and the impression on those that
heard it from others was so strong
that it has not died out. The re-
mark WAS called forth by a discus
sion in Freer's store. Freer is the
groceryman, dry goods man and
general merchant of the village,
and his store, which is on the cor
ner of the main street, is the gath
ering place for the men hereabouts
to exchange news, gossip and pol
itlcal views. On the day in ques-
ton a crowd of men was there.
There were Emory Freer, Sam Z.
Mott, who runs the butcher shop
and livery stable; Lew Booth, the
barber: Carl Wismer, who is now a
baggage'handler in the West Shore
station in Kingston, and several
farmers from the vicinity, who
were in the village for their Satur-
day trading.
The topic al the scarcity of
labor in the township and the
high wages hat were being paid
unskilled labor getting at times as
high rs $l.60 a day. While the
talk was going on Judge Parker
happened in and an appeal was
made to him Immediately. He
ans wered without hesitation that
Il dollar a day was enough for any
man.
The talk immediately rose to a
pitch of excitement. Everybody
in the store took IA hand in it and
none agreed with Judge Parker.
Even the farmers who in that part
Of the country are a very thrifty
class, could not accept such a
proposition, a dollar and a quarter
was the bottom price for day labor
The judge stayed some time in the
| store listening to the talk and tax

Finest Bench of Herefords In
the West Owned by
L. G. Davis.
BARNEY MALLON & SONS
B~ulls-Prioe Ranged 500 to
5000 a Head.

Last week l.. &. Davis disposed
of nine of his thoroughbred year
ling Hereford bulls to Barney NAL
Ion d Sons, one of the largest cat
tie firms in North Park. The deal
was closd last Friday by Emory
Mallon, who was down to look at
the bulls, and the price paid rang
ed from 500 to 5000 a head.
Five of the bulls sold were ex-
hibited by Mr.. Davis at the Albany
ounty fair held at Laramie this fall
and received three first, and two
second prizes, one of them taking
the sweepstake prize for the best
bull of any age or breed.
This bunch of nine bulls, ranging
in age from II to l6 months, is one
of the prettiest lot of animals
to be e in the country, and are
thoroughbred in every point. The
five show bulls were sired by Duke
a registered Hereford purchased
from Scott & Marshall, of Bolton,
Mo, a well known cattle firm who
deal exclusively in thoroughbred
stock. The other four bulls were
sired by Dandy Rex, Mr.. Davis
present herd bull. Dandy Rex was
secured from Godgell & Simpson,
of Independence, Neb., and was
sired by the Dandy Rex that for
two years was the champion
weepst axes bull of the United
States, or for that matter, of the
world.
Mr.. Davis started in raising
registered Herefords for breeding
purposes several years ago, and
has succeeded in establishing a
breed of cattle embracing not only
the good points of the eastern
thoroughbreds, but has instilled
the hardness of the western cattle
which makes them a distinct west
ern thoroughbred. One of the
disadvantages of importing east
ern thoroughbreds is getting them
acclimated. The result is often
unsatisfactory, the offspring be-
ing weak and unable to withstand
much hardship. In the Davis
Hereford you have the thoroughly
westernized animal, strong, hardy,
with plenty of endurance, coupled
with the prize winning qualities of
the eastern stock.
MI. Davis keeps from 60 to 80
Hereford COWS and every animal
is registered. They are given the
best of care, and the result is
strong healthy calves. The bulls
are disposed of as soon after wean-
ing as possible, there being a ready
market for all of them at 500 a
head, in fact the supply has hard
ly equalled the demand which has
been increasing as the quality of
the cattle have become better
known.
Mr.. Davis has one of the best
stock ranches in the country, rails
ing "A large quantity of native hay
and alfalfa. 1t would be worth
the time of any man interested in
cattle to pay a visit to the Davis
ranch and look at this bunch of
Herefords. If it does not inspire
him to at least attempt to do like
wise he is a poor cattleman. 1t
Is becoming more generally real
ixed throughout the country that
scrub cattle do not pay, no matter
how little trouble they have been
to prepare for the market, and as
a result there has been a breeding
up OF cattle that is rapidly trans

JOHN E. osBoRNE's RECORD
Two Years Of Mistakes, Mismanaeement
ard Jobbery that are q Blot on
Our Political History.

If the republicans of Wyoming
were looking to party welfare,
rather than the welfare of the
the state, they might aid John L.
Osborne.
Those who are familiar with the
early political history of the state
know that in his two years term
as governor, Osborne did more to
disrupt and destroy the demo.
cratic party in Wyoming than any
other individual has done before
or since.
Passing over his disgraceful es-
capade, of crawling through the
capitol window in attempting to
assume the duties of his Office be-
fore he was legally declared elect
ed, it is recalled that he threw in
with the despicable renegade, A
l.. New, and, in his efforts to send
New to the United States senate,
where he would have been a sick
ening disgrace to our state, he de-
feated the candidacy of such men
as w. H. Holiday and George w.
Baxter.
Throughout the senatorial con-
test, and, in fact throughout his
term of Office as governor, he re-
jected the advice of old-time Wyo
ming democrats and such lawyers
as w. r. Stoll, A G Campbell
aud Gibson Clark, and followed
the instructions of such men as
that marplot T. NJ. Patterson of
Denver, Cocktail" Dodge of
Rawlins, who later fed the state;
Perry Bickford, later dismissed
from the Office of Surveyor General
for scandalous and criminal con-
duct; Cy. Kelley, later dismissed
from the Office of receiver Of pub
lie moneys for drunkenness and
incompetency, and others who
went to the pententiary or
fled the state. He capped his rec
ord in the senatorial contest by
turning down John Charles
Thompson, who by every sub
stance of right and courtesy, was
entitled to the senatorial appoint
ment, having come within one
vote of election by the Legislature.
In his two years incumbency of
the governors office, Osborne drove
scores of substantial Democrats
from his party and disrupted its
organization. Two years more of
his administration would com
plete the wreck.
Throughout his term of Office he
showed an utter lack of conception
of the dignity of the Gubernator-
ial office and his administration
was marked by scandals which for
the sake of the good name of the
state were kept by his political
opponents from publicity.
The record of his administration
does not disclose a single act for
the general good of Wyoming but
is replete with petty deeds of per-
sonal seltishness.
In damaging his own party,
Osborne also damaged the state,
and he would nave damaged it
still more, had he not been in the
minority on the several important
boards administering the states
business.
There was a general feeling OF
relief when his administration
ended and those who lived through
it-democrats as we'll as repub-
licans-look back upon it as they
do upon the Cleveland admins
tration, as some disagreesble night
