Montana Executive Takes Up with Washington the Possibility of Securing Regulars If Butte Riots Continue.
MEN AT WORK
 NO CARDS SHOWN
Insurgent Faction of Miners as. We'll as the Conserva- tives Resume Employ ment, But Officials Re main Under Cover.
ASSOCIATED PRESS prsPArcH1


 BUTTE, June 15.-Gov. Stewart took up with Washington the pos sibility of securing federal troops in case they are needed in connection With the trouble now existing in Butte local, Western Federation of Miners. The first news to this eff feet came from Washington and sur rrised most of those who heard it, because it followed a quiet day. The governor declared the steps were merely precautionary" It is feared trouble may result on Wednesday when the union men ballot on the question of showing their cards.
 The Insurgent faction of miners went to work, as did the conserva- tive. without being asked, as is customary, to show their union cards and the union officials, driven to shelter in the rioting on Saturday. remained under cover. The governor, who arrived early today from Helena, vigorously denied the report that he had ordered the militia mobiliZed, and also denied the report that he had actually appealed for troops, ex- plaining that his inquiry was as to their advisability in ease a contin- gency should arise"
 l Governor Stewart in his telegram to the president said there are only 800 militiamen in Montana and that he feared serious trouble was liable to result within the next few days. He explained that rioting had re- suited from conflicts between mem bers of the Western Federation of i Miners and the Industrial Workers of the World
 The Western Federation of Miners mebers are to hold a meeting to- morrow night and the Industrial 1 Workers of the World members are : planning to organize on Wednesday night. On both occasions the gov 1 ernor said, conflicts are liable to re- suit and he added that the home of an officer of the miners union al- ready had been wrecked with dynamite by seeding members of the union i and two prisoners had been taken from the city jail. Threats are alleged to have been made to lynch several deputy sheriffs and to attack other officials.
 Senator Walsh was present in Hell ena and expected to visit Butte to inquire into the situation and report to the president.
 Asks for Troops.
 WASHINGTON, June 15.-Govern- or Stewart, at Montana, telegraphed the president asking for federal troops to be sent to restore order in Butte copper mine districts. At the same time the governor sent mes sageS to Montana senators and re- presentatives in congress, urging them to call the White House, to the support of his request.
 Senator Meyers, Representative Evans and Stout arranged to see the president tomorrow morning In the meantime no one would discuss the situation. It was evident that the call for aid from the national gov rernment came as a surprise.

The second annual cattle sale Of thu
Southern Cattle Association, held in
Meridian, Aug. 18th and 18th, was 8
success that every member of the asso-
citation, the people of Meridian and the
entire south should feel proud of. It
was manifestation of the widespread
interest that is spreading over the
Southern states, and especially Missis
ksippi in the production of more and
better cattle.
There were in attendance over 1000
men and quite a number Of ladies'.
Delegates came from all the Southern
States: They came interested, too.
Everywhere the hotel lobbies, restau-
ratns, street corners and street cars one
could hear men discussing the merits of
the different herds of beef cattle, the
maintenance of pastures and si os.
These men were in Meridian because
they realize there is better system Of
farming for US than growing all cotton
year after year, thus wearing out our
lands and actually leaving Us poorer.
About IS head Of cattle Of each Of the
three leading beef breeds were sold.
The bidding was quick. spirited and
good prices were paid, but considering
