It Is a constant warfare between the

THEIR WAGES.

Somebody has raised the wall that
the Mexican sheep herders will stop
coming to Roswell, since gambling is
abolished, and that the sheepmen
will be unable to nire herders. The
Record editor has not talked with
many sheepmen, but he lives next
door to one and just across the street
from another; and from many re-
marks made by these men and their
wives, we gather that the abolition
of gambling will at least be a good
thing for the Mexicans, and probably
a benefit rather than an injury to
the sheep wnerS. AS it has been, the
owners were afraid to allow their

or five months On the range the Mex
lean herder came in with his a

lost every cent of it could he be in
duced to leave town. Then he must
be paid a months wages before he
would go-and frequently ne lost that

and often would nire to some other
sheepman and collect another months
wages in advance, thus placing him.
self under obligation to two or more
employers, one at least of whom mad
to lose the money advanced if the
man who last hired the herder was
not willing to pay ack the money
advanced by the first bidder. Some
years C, we understand that the
sneepmen in convention at Roswell
considered this matter as a great
grievance, entailing hardship on the
sheepmen in buying herders and
causing i'll feeling on account of the
sharp competition that existed when
herders were scarce.
The business manager of the Rec
ord was formerly engaged in the
sheep business, and some time age
he told the editor of a faithful old
| Mexican who worked for him five or
six months, and then came to town

cent of mis- money, without buying
the winter clothing he needed. Some

it been spent with the merchants
not to speak of the crime of taking
advantage of the appetite and igno-
rance of the poor Mexican who had
worked hard all spring and summer

their action are recorded against

reputation as a careful, conscien-

and in a reduction of freight and

corporations as we'll as all other

of the burdens of government.
Mr.. Bedford has pledged himself,
if nominated and elected, to repre-
sent his district to the best of biz
ability, and that he will faithfully
discharge the pledge every one that
knows him will vouch for, his word
az good as a gold bond. As bank

chants means his prosperity. His

Some weeks ago we asked Bro.
Eastwood Of the Heron Lake News
to get down to facts in the con-
gressional campaign and give us
the record as to what Congress-
man McCleary has actually done
in the way of the passage of
measures in the interests of the
people Of the second Minnesota
district, and his votes upon all
questions that might affect them,
directly or indirectly. Up to date
we have not been supplied with
the record, but presume Bro. East
wood is busy preparing it. For
fear he will overlook one impor-
tant item we wish to refresh his
memory as regards the infamous
mileage steal'' measure which
passed the house with the aid of
Congressman McCleary's vote, but
which was too plain a raid upon
the treasury for the toughened
consciences of the corporation
senate and was killed by that body.
For the benefit of those whose
memory is short We recall the in
cident as related by the Chicago
Record Herald:
I'm the fall of 1903 congress was
called in session a month earlier
than usual, and only the time
necessary for a gavel to rise and
fall passed between the special and
regular sessions.
1.-THE next month an attempt vas
made to raid the national treasury
by an apr opriation for extra mile
age for the regular session but not
a single representative had the
nerve to vote for it.
Fifteen months later-after the
congressional election and in the
final days of that congress-a bill
was passed appropriating $3.50, 900
to DO divided among the members
OF congress in proportion to the
distance they reside from Washing
ton. a
"Out of 27S members ninety voted
for the measure. eighty voted
against it, and the rest shirked or
were absent.
1T was as bald an attempt to loot
the treasury as can we'll be i'm
agined d."
Had the bill succeeded in the
senate. Congressman McCleary g
share Of the ''steal" would have
approx MINATED $4O0 for the expens Q
of a tt p thet he did not make and
by no possibility could have made.
Here is modern example of
selling his blrthright of honor for a
mess Of pottage which should not
be overlooked in making up the
record Of "your congressman Mr..
