Railroad Yardmaster Returns and Immigrant Labor Shift
Yardmaster Bulger returns to El Paso for Santa Fe duties after a vacation for a passenger conductor on the South Pacific. Madge, relieving him, heads to San Marcial. A hobo incident left Madge with a scar on the head. This morning's train No 10 carried workers east to compete with American labor, as immigration rules may require $50 on arrival, halting foreign labor shipments. Twenty five men and four women, plus a few children, were bound to Santa Fe work at Watrous.
