STRINGENT MEASURES AGAINST
COLORADO sTockMEN BY
COVE ERNMENT.
LEG|SLATURESAT FAULT
RESULT OF NOT ENFORCING
LAW FOR DIPPING.
ANIMALS.

Denver,-Because successive legisla'
lures have for years refused to pass
law making it possible for the State
Live Stock Inspection Bureau to en-.
force its orders calling for the dip
ping of cattle suffering from scabies.
the federal government has decided
upon stringent measures.
THE result says A. d. Melvin,
chief of the Federal Bureau, will
have the effect of closely quarantin-
Ing the state and requiring that Colo
RADIO cattle be dipped before being
moved interstate, or in the case of
exposed cattle, requiring that the
cars be placarded and the billing
marked in accordance with the depart
ment regulations in order that the
cattle may be properly handled at
market centers."
DR.. Charles G. Lamb. state veterin-
arian. received the letter Monday
from Chief Melvin, announcing the de-
cislon reached by the government. DIR.
Lamb will do everything in his power
TO prevent the immediate effective
ness Of the order. He has been work
Ing for years In an effort to induce
successive legislatures to give him
power to control the movement Of in
fected or exposed cattle within the
state.
But there was opposition on the part
Of near-sighted cattlemen who saw
nothing in the scheme but extra ex-
pense.
Now the expense will be vastly
greater. and even the cattlemen who
have been most careful in the past
will suffer with the rest In addition
the effect OF the federal placards will
be anything but an advertisement for
the state OF Colorado.
In the past the federal government
has detailed number OF inspectors to
Colorado to watch the interstate busi-
ness In Colorado cattle. But now. ION
account OF the absence OF state con.
troll the government cooperation
within the state inspection bureau is
TO be withdrawn.

spending three hours in the Newark
Jail as the youngest debtor prisoner

While playing in the street sew

1t at his tormenters. Wilmanski was
badly cut and his father had Bron-
islaw arrested, filing suit for $500
damages. The court awarded SIS

Bronislaw could not pay the
money and he was locked up in jail

1000 JAPANESE HELD IN PRACTICAL
SLAVERY ON EMPEROR HILLS ROADS

SEATTLE, Wash, Feb. 14.-Four
thousand Jap laborers are held in
practical slavery on the Hill roads
working between Seattle and st.
Paul. Their great master is the
Oriental Trading company of Seat
tie, which makes a quarter of a
million dollars year off them.
When the Jap laborer lands in
this country he is steered into the
offices of the trading company-if
the arrangement is not made be-
fore he leaves Japan--and enters
into the contract which binds him
as the personal property of the la
Dor firm.
For the trading company has a
contract with the Hill roads to sup
ply labor. The trading company
gets a generous rake-off from each
man, while the laborers themselves,
ignorant, helpless, unable to speak
English, think themselves fortunate
to get job.
The men go to work for $135 a
day. But out of this the trading
company gets Is cents day for
getting them the job. Also it sup
plies the provisions, at fat profit.
as the railroads carry the goods
for nothing, and they charge the
men at an advance of what they
could buy them in the neighbor-
hood.
Out of this comes also so cents
hospital fees every month, and a
dollar a month, which the trading
company credits-no one knows

men, scattered along the Hill lines
these are the men in authority
in the United States as the Jap
snese laborer learns when he
strikes the northwest.
The branch overseers are over
the bookmen. They watch to see
that the trading company gets all
the profits it thinks it deserves.
The bookmen exact from each of
the men under their control from
8 to 10 per cent of their wages. In
case of sickness or accident on the
part OF some of the gang, the book
man in league with the section fore.
men, does not report the shortage
to the central office, but lets the
rest of the laborers do the entire
work, then he draws the wages in
the name of the disabled workman
and divides it with the foremen.
Any one who can get a dozen labor,
ers together can be made a book
man.
DAMAGES SELDOM PAID.
In case of accident, each worker
may receive damages from the rail-
road through the trading company.
But the damages are more often
not paid. When they are paid the
amount usually does not exceed
from $500 to $500 for fractured
legs or for arms cut off. That
would barely enough to pay the ex.
penses of sending him back to
Japan.
The Northern Pacific turns the
entire monthly wage over to the
Oriental Trading company. The
Oriental subtracts the amount OF
the bills for provisions, hospital
fees, office expenses, and rake-ofi
from the gross earnings and writes
a check for the balance.
The Great Northern pays the
trading company, then sends a pay
car with the balance for the men
There are other cases of petty
graft. The officials get free trans
iortation for the men. then they
charge them for fare. Usually
there are about 10 men each month
from each branch who ask fol
transportation. They pay from one
third to one-half the regular fare
Also legal duties by the overseers
and bookmen for pay.
There is another company that is
doing similar business in the
northwest, the Koji Kwaisha, locat
ing laborers to various different
railroads, principally to the Tacoma
Eastern. Last fall the company
made a contract with the Chicago
& Puget Sound Railroad COM
pany to supply labOrers. Already
500 men are working. These men
are a little better off than those in
the Oriental Trading company. In.
stead of $1.20 a day, they are get.
ting $1.57 a day, a difference of 81
cents. This difference is due part
ly to the nature of the work re.
