Especial United Press Wire. J

Washington, Oct. 16.-Radical
agitators are working to gain con-
troll of thousands of men striking
in America and the thousands who
are threatening to strike, according
to information the government has
received from confidential sources.
The purpose of these radicals is said
to be to lead the strikers in an in
dustrial revolt bordering on a politi-
cal revolt. Their propaganda, ac-
cording to government officials, is
responsible for many unauthorized
strikes.
The fact that Wilson and his con-
fidential advisor, Colonel House, are
i'll, anG that President Gompers OF
the American Federation of Labor,
bitter foe of radicalism, is in very
poor health and liable to suffer a
breakdown, makes the situation even
more difficult for the government to
handle, it was stated.

The first gun in the great fight

fired in Great Falls last Friday when
the Cascade Trades and Labor As
sembly indorsed the draft of the
bill presented by the political Labor
organization known as the Montana
Labor league.
Labor has long suffered in this

working class and is determined t.
carry the fight for a real one, t.
