Carson City, March 6.-Judge
Farrington's restraining order is one
of the broadest and most sweeping
ever handed down in the country,
and is in line with the Gould de-
cision handed down several weeks
ago by Judge Ashley L. Gould at
Washington, ID. c.
The decision was handed down in
the suit of the Consolidated against
the miners and the Miners, union at
Goldfeld. the company not only
asking that the union and its mem
bers be restrained from interfe ring
with its workings and its employees,
but also asking that the union be
dissolved by the court.
This latter point is not touched
by the order issued today, but it is
said to be fully covered in the de-
cision which will be handed down by
the court to morrow afternoon.
The restraining order is made to
continue until the court dissolves it,
and a nominal bond of ST. 500 is
demanded by the company.
The restraining order provides:
1. The defendants are restrained
from in any matter interfering with.
hindering. preventing or obstructing
any of the servants, employees or
agents of the company while they
are engaged in doing work in con-
nection with the company.
2. Restraining defendants from
compelling or inducing persons to
leave employ of company, by threats,
intimidations, violence or force; al
so restraining defendants from pre-
venting or attempting to prevent
persons from taking employment
with the company.
4. Restraining defendants from
attempting to prevent persons TAX
ing employment with the company
by force, threats or otherwise.
4. Restraining defendants from
doing any acts in furtherance of any
conspiracy to obstruct or prevent
the business of the complainant in
any way.
S. Restraining the congreg alton
OF the defendants about the streets,
premises, roads. places or approach
es adjacent to the property of the

POLITICS IN SEATTLE

Moore, the Socialist Scourge," was
defeated for mayor Of Seattle on Tues
day by $500 votes. Even his friends
admit that his defeat was due to his
arbitrary measures with the socialists.
They describe his conduct as 'kiddish
and "foolish." " He allowed the so
cialists to speak in the most crowded
portion Of the city, on University AMI
Second streets, but down ON Pike
Place, proletarian quarter. he ar
rested them no matter how slight the
attempt. The citizens" looked upon
this pursuit Of the socialists as silly.
To them the socialist activity seemed
aimless and harmless, and, accustomed
TO the phrases Of democracy they could
not account for the discrimination.
Then Moorc's policy Of not aeeepC.
ing bail for the socialists, or bringing
them TO trial has disgusted every one,
All socialists, men and mowcn, would

criminal charges would be let out ON
bail. The daily papers have exploited
this, the sort of general sense OF pub
lic fairness was shocked, and Mr..
Mayor got his walking papers. He
persisted in his cuicidal policy up to
the last night before election.
The acts of the police were ofrens-
lively brutal on this night. Three men
were arrested Friday night, DR.. Titus
and two others, several on Saturday
night, who remained in Jail over sun
day. and two men and three women
Monday night. The women were Mrs.
Titus, Mrs. Steele, and Mrs. Ingor
whose husband was arrested the same
night. The women were dismissed
when they were taken into iai. but
came back to Pike Place and went to
speaking again, and were ugain placed
under arrest. Policeman DOYLE in ar

After one of the greatest debates
ever heard in a state convention,
according to the newspapers report
ing the occurrence. the Illinois
miners, in session at Peoria, a week
ago last Friday declared themselves
in favor "of united working class
political organization" and for the
establishment of system that guar
an'ees to the workers an apportun-
ity to obtain living by honest toll
and the full product of their labor. ["
The committee reported adversely
on the resolution and the opponents
of the proposition charged that it
was an endorsement of the prin-
ciples of socialism. The socialists
championed the resolution. w. O..
Ryan, Mitchell's side partner and
elected general secretary Of the
United Mine Workers in the recent
referendum, presided during the
debate. John Walker, socialist, was
reelected president by 10, 900 ma
jority, and Duncan Mcdonald, of
the same political faith, was elected
as the states representative on the
international executive board.-Cle-
veland Citizen.

labor organization, to the strike and
the boycott
The ineffeetiveness Of the strike has
been illustrated too often in the west
as instances in Colorado, Idaho and
now in Nevada. The passing Of the
trade or labor union is prestiged in the
decision of the U. s. courts, which de-
clare a boycott by the working class
to be illegal, while affirming the right
of the employer to boycott union men
and declaring the law prohibiting dis
charge of union men by railway corpo-
ration TO be unconstitutional.
Despite the warning of Roosevelt
who has repeatedly cautioned the men,
bers of his class not to use the in
junction too frequently for fear least
the masses should rebel against it and
thus entirely deprive the master class
of this useful lash, despite the repeat
ed declarations of Taft that AN effort
must be made to vindicate the exist
ing order Of things, in order to stave
off socialism, the capitalist arrogant
with power, drunk with success, are
steadily driving the craft divided and
economically muddled workers from
one puny outpost of uuionism to an
other until there is only left them the
ballot box through which to voice their
protests against the outrages of an in
dustrial system which rewards the
worker with the dregs of his produc-
tion and the shirker with luxuries of
the universe.
We congratulate the Butte Miner
for its fealty to its class in its recent
editorial advocating a reduction in
wages in the city and reminding the
working class that if they were as
faithful to their interests and alive to
their power as is the capitalist class,
starvation, penury and want would be
the portion of the idler only instead
Of the workers as il is today.
We remind the working class that
neither national nor state lines di-
vide the capitalist and urge the work
ers to combine industrially as well as
politically.
We commend the cause of our Social
ist Alderman George II. Ambrose and
point the workers of the city of Butte
to his record as a faithful servant of
the working class.
The governing principles of the 80
cialist party is in the interest of the
working class. If so we favor it. II
opposed to the interest Of the working
class, we are against it.
We eonjure the wage workers of the
City of Butte to respond to the Marx
ian motto: Workers of the World
unite, you have nothing to lose, but
your chains, you have World to
gain
The following resolutions were
adopted:
Resolved, That we, the Socialist Par
ty of Butte in convention assembled,
pledge ourselves that if our candidates
are elected to office that we will do
al in our power TO establish an emer-
geney hospital. That we will give en-
ployment to all the idle we possibly
can. That We will do all in our pow
er to extend the limits of the City 50
as to take in the surrounding districts
which are now outside.
We further resolve, that if our can.
didates are electe | TO Office that they
will have the interest of but one class
at heart and that is the working class.

BUTTE SOCIALISTS
NOMINATE CANDIDATES
Adopt Platform and Resolutions and
Prepare for Vigorous Campaign
Enthusiastic Meeting

The socialists Of Butte held large
and enthusiastic convention Thursday
March 5th with Alderman George Am.
brose, chairman, and A. NJ. Jennings,
secretary.
The following candidate for alder
men were selected: First Ward, John
J. Earle Third, Jacob Brast; Fourth,
Frank Curran; Fifth, Jacob Harkenon;
Sixth, Frank o'Hara; Seventh, Jas
]. Faggenj Eigth, John F. o'Brien.
The Second ward was left to the City
Central committee to choose a eandi-
date.
All the candidates are miners and all
are old time members of the party.
We have certainly got the best there
is to offer to the people of Butte to
vote for.
Comrade George o'Malley gave an
interesting talk on unionism and its
relation to socialism.
The platform adopted is as follows:
The Socialist Party of the City of
Butte in convention assembled re-af-
firms its allegations to the principles
of International socialism and to the
platform of the National Socialist Par
ty of America and invites the cooper
alton and support of all who believe
that the emancipation of the working
class can only be brought about by the
overthrow Of capitalism and the aboli-
tion of wage slavery.
The concentration of wealth in the
hands of few, the perfection of labor
saving machinery, the immense cost of
the tools Of production which places
them beyond the reach of the working
class, have brought about a condition
of servitude more reprehensible than
that which existed for the black man
before the civil war and every fnan.
eial crisis, every bank made panic, ev-
cry curtailment of production sends
thousands of the really useful members
of society, the bone and muscle of the
country hat in hand to the soup house
OF the cold charity of the country.
By control of the press of the nation
which is today almost wholly in the
hands of the capitalist class, the work
ers who accept their opinions ready
made are blinded to the real cause Of
their misfortunes which are attributed
to everything under the sun except ca
pitalism, from the San Francisco earth.
quake to drunkenness.
The real cause of poverty, crime, ig-
noranee, prostitution is sedulously kept
in the back ground by these moulders
of public opinion because the interests
of their owners lies in the perpetuation
of the capitalist system.
Workers are divided at the polls, and
as a result of their division vote into
the hands of the master class not alone
the continued ownership of the tools
of production, but the club of the pa.
trolman, the bayonet of the tin sol.
diers, the judge on the bench and the
entire machinery of government.
Not alone do the capitalist or the
ruling class influence and direct the
political actions of the wage slave but
they also by means of paid hireling.

The speaker here said he had many
other topics he wanted to talk but
his watch told him IL was time to stop,

so that he might answer any question

said he would follow a good old Gus

Great Falls, March 6.-The Social
ists' Mutual Improvement club held
a meeting at the Presbyterian church
last evening, which was well attended.
The principal address was made by
Rev. +. /. Buzzell of Conrad.
The speaker of the evening, after a
brief introductory speech by Geo. Wes-
leder said in substance:
Ladies Of the Mutual Improvement
Club, Comrades and Fellow Citizens:
Even the dogs want TO know about 30
cialism (this because of a canine pro-
test against being put out Of the hall.)
Before / commence my lecture l will
ask to have slip Of paper passed
through the audience in order that az
the close of my remarks, / may answer
to the best Of my ability any questions
written on these slips. At meeting
in Butte / had 80 questions asked me,
and that often proved the most inter
esting part of the meeting. The ordin-
airy lecturer seeks to remind people Of
what they already know. Ny aim is
to teach. If / had any gift of oratory
/ would throw it away in order to
teach in plain words.
The speaker then read from various
authors, some of whom were not social
lists, then definitions and explanations
of socialism and its aims. The latter
he explained were ethical and altru-
istic. He felt there was little use,
however, in appealing to the moral and
ethical instincts in men when the fact
was that as soon they left the church
door or the lecture room they went out
into a world socially organized in such
a way that il was well nigh impossible
to live right. For that reason socialists
wanted to change conditions 50 that
men and women could lead an ideal
life. Their was political and economic
only as a means to an end, and that
end was the making of higher and
better types Of mankind.
The speaker then launched into his
theme, "What Socialism Will Do for
the Women" And first he said that
it would save them from the necees.
sity of washing and ironing. He some
times wondered how it was possible
for a woman to do all the washing
and ironing, take care of Rooseveltan
family, attend TO the cooking, making
the beds, and all the numberless cares
of house and family. If socialism did
nothing else for a woman but relieve
her of the washing and ironing that
alone surely made it worth her study.
Under socialism all the washing woull
be done away from the home by CO.
operation and machinery, and all the
woman would have to do would be to
place washing on the piazza in a
bundle and receive il back clean and
beautifully ironed. This is not simply
a theory. 1t is fact, for there Is
in Germany now in city of 100000
or 100000 inhabitants where the wash
ingis done at a municipal wash house,
free of cost like the public schools.
Then under socialism the woman woull
be relieved of the labor of cooking.
All kinds of food could be ordered
cooked and received at the home ready
for the table as cheaply as the raw
material could be furnished. Or IL she
preferred the woman Of the house
could take her family to the munic-
ipal restaurant and feed them there
as cbeaply as the raw material could
be purchased. This also was not a
theory, for in the city Of Client with
