Coal mine operators Of Montana and
Wyoming will establish their head.
quarters in Billings instead Of at Hele-
ma soon after the next annual wage
conference OF the operators and min
ers to be held at Helena next month,
according I o Thomas Gibson, president
Of District No. %, United Mine Work
ers of America, who is in Billings this
week attending the meeting Of the
Montana Federation Of Labor. It is
very probable that the state commits
sioner. James Morgan will make his
headquarters in Billings also.
Mr.. Gibson is confident that the
wage scale conference between min.
ers and operators for 1909 will be held
In Billings and has promised the
Chamber Of Commerce his support in
this direction.
He declares that the building Of the
Billings & Northern railroad reaching
directly hundreds of miners to be EN-.

ployed in the mines on the Musselshell
along the line of the new railroad and
in the vicinity of Great Falls, together
with mines in Carbon county and
Northern Wyoming, makes Billings
the most central point in the coal min
ing district of Wyoming and Montana
and makes the city more accessible
than probably any other in the state.
Mr.. Gibson makes his headquarters
at Sheridan and the change in the To-
cation Of the operators headquarters
will not make any difference in his
place of residence.
Secretary Decker of the chamber Of
commerce is still working with a view
of securing the next wage scale CON
ference for Billings and will contin-
ue to do so until It is assured beyond
fear of contrevertion.
Many of the mine operators of the
two states have assured Mr.. Decker
OF their support, as have many OF the
miners.
