Railroad Unions May
Not Send Delegates
To Labor Conference

Washington, Oct. Arrange
ments for the opening Monday Of
the industrial and labor conference
called by President Wilson virtually
are complete with only the question
Of whether the railroad unions
would send delegates unsettled.
With the transportation workers
unreprcsented many officials think
the value of the conference reduced
because Of the part played by the
rail men in the economic life of the
country. There is no question,
however, but that deliberations will
begin Monday afternoon in the Hall
of Nations at the Pan-American
Union building as planned.
Timothy Shea of the hremen's
brotherhood, the only executive Of
the four big brotherhoods now in
Washington, said the railroad unions
were acting together and that no
decision had been reached as to
whether they would send delegates.
1t was intimated that there was
serious doubt as to the railroad
unions participating because their

The Montana nonpartisan. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1918-192?, 1919-04-05

Always, people have looked up
on "the Hill" as a place where
anything could happen, and it has
become a byword throughout the
northwest states for all that is
worse in corruption and violence,
whether it be robbery, murder,
the forceable suppression OF a
great strike, or scandulous ex-
hibition of political jobbery, it
has been dismissed by the people
Of the state with the wearied re-
mark that "Oh, we'll that is just
like Butte"
From the beginning Of its ca
reer the camp has been notorious,
and a stencil in the nostrils of de-
cent people. Its swarming
streets, full of pale-faced haggard
miners, it's foul dens of vice, it's
boards of pestiferous gunner and
stool-pigeons, it's union troubles
and its heroic union leaders, its
brutal -blooded domineering
executives, it's miserable cabins
and wretched shacks and above
all, glooming like q watchful vul-
ture, the Hennessy building and
the corps Of medicine mixers who
plot the next move in the game of
copper control, have become fixed
in the annals of state history, in
an indelible manner.
Today it has reached the
high-water mark for infamous
election thefts. w. F. Dunn,
union leader, member of the leg
islature and associate editor of
the Butte Daily Bulletin, appears
to have been jobbed out of the
Democratic nomination for may
or, as deliberately and as defiant
". as ever such practices were
carried out. Dunn had large
majority, an overwhelming ma
iority, he was the choice of the
people Of Butte at least, SO the re-
turns showed on nomination
night, yet the agents of the A. G.
NJ. rendered desperate by such a
signal defeat, deliberately sup
pressed the record and in the
council chamber surrounded by a
crowd of armed guards who had

Some History.
The present city elections are
the first in which the working
people have participated since the
defeat of Duncan, some years ago,
for they seemed to have lost heart
after that and either ignored the
business altogether or voted for
the "best man" amongst those
who were running.
Lately however, after the sue
cess which attended the big strike,
coupled with the utter scandal of
city mal-adniinistration, the me-
cessity for political activity again
made itself felt and the spirit of
interest in municipal affairs was
aroused. The working people who
make up the vast majority of the
population began to feel around
for some method Of expressing
themselves at the ballot box and
they soon organized Nonparti-
san Club which was to be a ne
cules around which political ac-
tivities should center.
Nonpartisan Club.
Some time before the last state
election the club was founded,
the membership Of which embrac-
ed all those who were sick and
tired of the misrule of the cop
per crowd and ready to enter the
lists against them. Founded by a
few able men, the club soon gath
cred force and became so power
full that three of its candidates
were returned to the state legisla-
ture, amongst whom w. +. Dunn
was the most commanding figure.
Dunn's Work.
Alarmed by the political activi-
ties of Butte citizens, the copper
crowd sought to discredit or de-
stroy the leadership. The kept
press was ordered to turn its guns
on Dunn and his companions and
to spare no pains to destroy them
politically if possible. Dunn was
Missed in the legislative chamber,

ever ready to give a hand and
butting in when he is sup
posed not to mingle in poll
tics. Pat Sidley, the boss Of
flee man for the A. G. M. COM
pany. Then there was the boss
gunman for the A. G. M. COM
pany, together with about six
other gunner.
Where did all these fellows
come from in so short a time?
All arrived in 10 minutes.
Wasn't it prearranged? Why
did such men as Galwey,
Chope and Roche stoop so low
as to mingle in such proceed
ings as followed their arrival
there.
You all know Morrissey-
four flushing, "eat- 'em up
Ed" Morrsisey, the man that
always does the dirty work
for all the plays that are made
by the rotten city hall gang
and the A. G. M. crowd. Well,
he arrived, looking like an in
sane man. As I said before,
everything was peace and
quietness. He rushed his way
through the crowd just like a
wild bull and then came back
about half way through the
crowd and accosted a man
who was not saying a word,
just an onlooker, with the
question, asked in q terrible
voice: What are you doing
here?" The man was polite
with his answer, that he was
only an onlooker. For his
politeness he got a crack in
the mouth and a gun showed
into his stomach and ordered
to beat it. When he got out
side he got a crack from a
gun on the head. Back came
Morrissey for another. It
didn't make any difference
who. If you were not dressed
as a west-sider you were liza
BILE to be picked out. Morris
sey showed his gun into the
stomach of at least six men
and beat them up after he got
them outside. I suppose any
one man in that crowd could
lick Morrissey, but they
couldn't afford to 60 up
against the gun.
Morrissey was backed up
each time by the A. G. N.
gunner. As an onlooker said:
"This crowd is thirsting for
blood and to kill" and it
surely looked it.
There is no question but
that the judges and clerks at
