were no signs in Butte that a strike
had been called on the Butte mining
companies by the metal mine work
ers union which was organized last
week The new union held its daily
meeting, perfecting its organization
and enrolling members. A number
less than 1000 miners was claimed
by the officers as members of the
union.
A new development in the labor
situation in Butte was expected to
take place when the electrical work

to strike are the construction and
repair men. The employers asso-

strikers, as they had refused to ar
bitrate.

field began three years ago when
the Butte union of the Western
liberation of Miners revolted from
the parent organization because Of
alleged arbitrary actions of the west
ern federation. The union hall was
destroyed at the time and the Mon

The demands of the new union
when presented to the employing
companies were rejected and since
then the new union has been at
tempting to cause the mines to shut
down. The leaders Of the union say
more than 5000 miners have struck

The demands include a wage scale
of $6 daily, the present wage being
$4.75; improved working conditions
and recognition of the union.
The Silver Bow trades and labor
