THOSE RESOLUTIONS.
A Voice From Missouis Which Says They
Are All Right.

Nissoula. Jan. 6-The resolutions re-
Gently passed by the Great Falls bust
ness men and published in the stand
ard have received the hearty endorse
ment of the local labor organizations
and have been the subject of much Ia
vorable comment during the past few
days. President Ferguson of the
Trades and Labor assembly writes as
follows regarding this question:
To the Editor:
The resolutions of the Great Falls
Business Mems Protective association
as published in the Anaconda Standard
of Jan q appear to hold forth to or
ranized labor the brightest prospects
for the new year. When business men
begin to realize that certain inalien-
able rights accrue TO American citi-
gems, and organize and resolve along
the lines so long laid down by the
trades unions, surely we may look for
good results.
For years the unions have commended
that a man or body of men had a right
to do Just as he or they pleased, pro-
yiding no law was violated, and the
rights of no one were tnterfered with.
The Great Falls business men at last
recognize the truth and justice OF this
principle and have arrayed themselves
on our side. BY organizing them
selves they have also conceded our
10 welcome them to the ranks of those
who are devoted to the protection of
the weak against the strong. Nothing
in the resolutions can be construed "a
mean that extreme measures Will be
taken without a full and complete In
vestigation, but rather that when an
opportunity occurs, a most thorough
Investigation shall be had, and ther
that the full strength of the organiza-
ton shall be thrown on the side OF
right We dare not assume otherwise
in justice TO the honesty and integrity
of the members of the new organiza'
ton. Nor can we believe that they
can be so blind TO their own interest,
as to in any way attempt to injur'
that class of citizens through which al
OF their prosperity comes. Society ha'
been aptly likened TO a house-the roo

Missoula, Jan. 6.-Deputy Sheriff Cor
bett returned yesterday from Warm
Springs, where he left Philbert Bisette in
the insane asylum He had some trouble
with Bisette on the way over. The man
at one time made an attempt to jump
through the car window, and at Garrison
refused to leave the train. AFTER peins
induced to get out he would not get into
the Montana Union train, thinking that 1t
was the Drummond branch train and
would take him to Philipsburg, where he
said there was a man who would make
him trouble. Being assured that the train
would run to Butte he got in. At Warm
Springs he left the train willingly, but
made a big row when the asylum was
reached.

He also says that the
