Company Print Shop Gets Busy
A few days later the Butte Miner
print shop which was just then
wrenched from the grasp of Will
Clark by the A. C. M. was set to
work on the biggest print job of the
year. The best looking pictures Of
the Hon. B. K Wheeler, who served
the interests of the Montana Power
Company so well in Washington,
were set in forms and the presses of
the Montana Standard" began to
creak and groan as tons of the
Wheeler boosting literature began to
roll off. No expense was spared in
printing and the Wheeler cards
which are soon to decorate every
dead wall in the state will appear il
as many colors and patterns as the
junior senator's past political affilia
tions, but will be more pleasing tt
the eye.
