Yellowstone County, Thursday,
Sept. 18. 1t is going to be one of
the biggest gatherings ever held

going to be present.
There will be three speakers,

Of men representing the industries of
the state. Several others intended
being present but were unavoidably
detained but wired their hearty SYM
pathy with the movement.
To Initiate Compensation Law.
The platform adopted by the Labor
League included first and foremost a
! compensation bill including vo-
cational diseases which will be ini-
lated at once by petition which will
be circulated in conjunction with pc
tition referring the recent Primary
election law outrage. Other features
of the platform include metal and
coal mine act including shot firing
and air pressure clauses, an anti
blacklist law striking out the rust
ling card, law governing conditions
Of lumber camps as to bedding, food
and sanitation, a minimum wage law
and mothers confinement pension
law.
To Cooperate With Nonpartisans.
Strong resolutions were passed
pledging cooperation with the Nom
partisan league and every possible
support in enactment into law Of the
entire League program, and this ac-
ton was duplicated at a big meet of
the Smeltermen held Monday evening
in Great Falls.
Organization To Be Started At Once.
Plans were perfected to put a big
force of organizers in the field at
once to enroll all the laborers Of the
state. The membership fee will be
$3.50 for the campaign period of 1920,
which includes subscription to the Of
ficial paper. Any man who works
regularly for wages is eligible and the
aim is to enroll 5000 members before
Nov. / and $4,000 by the end of win
ter, cleaning up the odds and ends
early in the spring so that all will be
in readiness for the primary and gen.
eral elections next year.
To Sweep State Clean.
With the Labor League organ
lied and to cooperate with the &c.
900 organized farmers, it is planned
to sweep the state so clean that the
professional politicians and Kept
Press Editors will have naught to do
but hold a pitiful little reunion Of
their own with Will Campbell in the
chair to explain why his Political
Loyalty League farce comedy did not
receive the serious consideration of
the people. It is doubtful, however,
whether, after the crash, either the
Montana Power Company or the Cop
per crowd will pay any hotel bills Of
men who failed to deliver the goods.

forming a political organization to
cooperate with the Nonpartisan
League are following the example set

Dover, Mont, Sept. 9, '1e

Dover, Mont, Sept. 9, '19
Editor Montana Nonpartisan,
l am League member and pro-
pose to do all I can to boost the
League. l wish in an early issue
you would explain in very plain
language just what the dirty gang
did to our primary law, explain
ing just what is the difference be-
tween an "open" and "closed"
primary, as l meet many who do
not fully understand, editor s
note This will be done in the
next issue Of the Nonpartisan) i.
Surely the dirty bunch is getting
scared and the harder they fight
us just that much harder will we
fight back.
The way the State Board of
Equalization allowed the big cor
porations to escape their just
share of taxes is a shame and it is
an outrage that this unjust share
of taxes has been shifted to the
shoulders of the dried out farmers
and laborers.
Indeed it is high time that far
mers and laborers are waking up
to the fact that we haveebeen the
goats and always will be until
we organize.
Let every member spread the
gospel Of the Nonpartisan League
and get all the members we can
so that we will be so powerful,
that with the help of the Labor
League we will show the dirty
bunch now in control Of this Gang
ridden state, that we can stick.
Yes and WE ARE GOING TO
STICK from the hot place to
breakfast and make it a clean
sweep in 1920, for the good Lord
only knows that our state capital
needs a house-cleaning from top
to bottom, and it is up to us to do
the job.
LET US ALL BE BOOSTERS
for the N. p. League and for the
Labor League. We will stick and
we will win in 1920.
Yours very truly,
