AN APPEAL TO THE FARMERS

papers urging you Farmers not to
sign the petitions, and publishing
taisehoods about the proposed meas
ures. Jones Loses a Job $50, 900
OF us hooked" Can you pay out
/ $94,OOO?" The absurdity is manifest
TO any rational mind. All these ad-
/ refreshments are put out with the
| hope that the readers of the same
| are suckers, and will swallow the
whole thing. hook, bait and sinker,
| at one gulp.
BAREFACED LIES
PUBLISHED IN ADS
There is 10 truth whatever in
/ these statements. And the CORPORA
| ton lawyer who wrote them dare
not put his name to the same. No
lawyer would risk his reputation as
a lawyer by putting such statements
about the proposed compensation
measure over his signature; for he
knows well enough that he would
make himself the laughing stock of
all the rest of the lawyers of the
state.
These advertisements are intend
ed solely to create false impressions
on the minds of the voters so that
they will refuse to sign the petit
tions. How many farmers and wage
workers in Montana have $4,000?
NEW Law SIMPLE
JUSTICE TO WORKERS
The new compensation measures
are not aimed at making ii harder
for corporations to do business in
Montana. But if we succeed in hav-
ing the people adopt these meas
ures the claim agents an dcorpcra-
ton lawyers who have a good fob
beating injured workers out of their
compensation will be out of q lob.
CORPORATION LAWYERS
HATE WORKERS
Remember that all this cry a.
gainst the compensation measure
comes from corporation LAWYERS.
lobbyists and claim agents. They do
not want to lose their high salaried
job, which they will lose, as far as
compensation is concerned, if the
people approve of the changes we
are trying TO get before them.
ONLY HOPE
rs IN VOTER
1t is almost impossible for us to |
get any compensation from the Leg |
lSlature except what corporation |
lobbyists wish to concede. Therefore |
we are trying to appeal to the peo-
pie through petition. We are not |
asking you to vote for the compen-
sation-simply asking that YOU sign
a petition demanding from the sec
rotary of state that he place the |
measures on the BALLOT to be voted |
on at the next general election.
PLENTY OF
TINE TO STUDY
You will have plenty Of time be-
tween now and November 4th to !
study these measures and decide
whether you will vote yes or no.
Sign the compensation petitions.
and let the corporation LOBBYISTS
and legislators see that the people
or Montana are going to have some
say about law-making in Montana.
