AMERICANS ONLY, EMPLOYED

pany's line, extending from Sparks to
Ogden, states that for the first time
III many years he is employing only
Americans TO work on the construc-
ton work Of his division and on sec
ton work. This is due to the fact
that there are now many Americans
looking for positions, where year
ago an American laborer would re
fuse TO work on the section or GER
tain kinds Of construction work. II
is also due 10 the fact that the South

better to pay good wages and secure
good labor than it is to pay low wages
and thus secure cheap labor. -

PENNY PENNY WHO

Editor Herald: AS n contrihutor

Thomas M. Patterson | wonld like al
little information as to what becarSS
OF the money. The Democrat claim.
ed that it received $500 to $500 in nen-
MES. Some time ago it announced th,.
pennies would be shipped to Denver.
Up to the present time no acknowl-
eGgment has been received from Mr.
Patterson. Surely Mr.. Patterson owes
his friend Day the courtesy of a reply,
stating the amount.
For one | cannot allow myself to
think for a moment that an honest
| man like Mr.. Day would lie about
| the number of pennies received or that
he failed to turn them over to Mr.
Patterson. Perish such a thought
Would 1t not be a good idea to write
to Mr.. Patterson and ask him why he
failed to acknowledge the receipt of
| the five hundred dollars in pennies.
Mr.. Patterson owes this much to the
aboring men of the San Juan and
state who contributed. That Mr.. Pat
terson received the money is positive
because Mr.. Day collected the money
for him and announced shipment and
David would shrink from grating or
imposing on any one. We have his
word for 1t every day that he is honest.
