Examples
-
A peon with a bit more standing in the community than his fellows, wearing something or other to suggest his authority and higher place in the world -- such perhaps as the pink shirt the haughty "jefecito" beside me sported -- appeared with twelve or more men ready for work and was given a section and paid enough to give his men from fifty to eighty cents a day each and have something over a dollar left for himself.
