A Failure of the Socialists.

To the Editor of The Star:
Among the items of interest yesterday
was the news that Mayor Duncan of
Butte Mont. had been attacked and
stabbed by miner belonging to one fac
ton of the socialist party there Mayor
Duncan, in common with most of the
present city administration of Butte is
a socialist and the trouble in Butte re-
slIlting from the attempt to solve the
problem of government according to the
ideas of the socialist party is matter
of interest to the whole United states
and particularly to those cities Verging
toward extension of municipal functions
The difficulty in the case of. Butte
seems to have arisen rather from the in
herent indisposition of human nature to
cooperate. than from the personnel of
the men who made the trial. For in
stance. Mayor Duncan, former Uni
tartan pastor. is of high ideals. and uni
versally respected by all classes and
parties in the city as a man of integrity
and honor. The event. however, has
proved that after election to office there
developed in the socialist party the same
zeal for Spoils as in the parties which
had preceded. added to a greater inability
to work in harmony within party lines
The socialists of Butte are now torn into
two hostile factions. ready to go to any
lengths to get the upper hand, and as
result business in the town has been
brought almost to a standstlll. For a
long time past there have been small
