Just have a rational conversation with your manager. Explain to them the issue that you don't believe you're getting a fair wage, because this other person has fewer duties, but has higher pay. Propose to them the amount you feel would be fair and say that you'd seek more fair employment, if they don't offer that raise. Be prepared to go down a few grand from what you offer, but I'm sure you'll get it.
Remember, you're just a product. No one's going to pay you more if they think they can pay less. Chances are that dude had to show the company why they should pay him more. Now it's your turn.
What would you do if someone you trained now earns more than you?
