CAN THE LEOPARD
CHANGE HIS SPOTS?

Roy Z. Ayers, member Of Congress,
from the Eastern District has filed with
the Secretary OF State, for the DEM
ocratic nomination for governor Of
Montana. This is the same Roy F..
Ayers that in case No. A-6334 Of the
court records of Silver Bow County,
without any trial by jury, ousted from
office, Mayor Lewis J. Duncan OF the
City of Butte, because he refused to
order the police to use force, that is to
say - fire upon working men assemb-
led during disagreement between capt.
tai and labor in Butte. The date Of the
judgment ousting Lewis J.. Duncan,
Mayor OF Butte, and signed by Roy
E. Ayers, now running for governor,
is October 6, 1914. The records may
be consulted by anyone who will visit
the Clerks office in the Silver Bow
County Court House.
This is the same Roy E. Ayers, who
in case No. A-63H ousted from Of
flee, as Sheriff of Silver Bow County.
Tim Driscoll because he refused to fire
on working men, engaged in peaceable
assembly. The date Of the judgment
against D~riscoll, who was also tried
without a jury by the said Ayers, is
October 6, 1914, as anyone visiting the
Court House in Silver Bow County
can see.
Every morning OF the trial Roy f.
Ayers was escorted to the Court by
Jack O'Neill ("The Rimmer") II Sup
e%rintendent Of the Anaconda Mine or
some other henchman OF the Anaconda
Copper Mining Company, and every
day when the trial was recessed Roy
L. Ayers left the court in the escort
CT The Rimmer" or other henchmen
Of the same company, who were deter
mined. at that time, to break the Butte
Miners Union, so that the rustling
card and contracting system could be
installed with little or n opposition.
The men who signed the complaint
against Driscoll presided at the recent
supper given in Butte to Con Kelley.
This is the same Roy Ayers whose
picture with a column article, was pub
lished in the Montana Standard Of
March 8, 1886. The Montana Standard
controlled by the Anaconda Copper
Mining Company is requesting the vot-
ers of this state TO elect Roy E. Ayers
to the office OF governor. Apparently
with this recommendation Mr.. Ayers
is still controlled by the same interests
which dominated his actions in 1914
when Lewis ]. Duncan was ousted as
Mayor of the City OF Butte, and Tim
Driscoll was ousted as Sheriff of Sill
yer Bow County.

FIGHTING WAR AND
FASCISM
By Michael Alper

The NEW YORK TINES, which de-
servedly has a reputation for accuracy
and impartiality in its news columns,
injured that reputation when on May
81, in reporting the Anti-War Parade,
it said that the marchers carried ban
ners and placards bearing a vast var
iety Of demands and declarations in
sharp contrast to the patriotic demon
strations Of veterans and other bod
dies" The reporter did not mention
the nature OF these 'unpatriotic' ban
ners and placards. He did not tell the
readers that the banners Of the Anti
War Parade blazoned forth the follow
ing slogans Bread Not Bullets II

can Youth Act" War Anywhere
Means War Everywhere Keep

that this action be taken. The
Tryon Rotary club will also bring
the matter to the Rotary clubs of
the state. while the Polk County
Bar association will seek the CO.
operation of the Bar Association
in every county in the state.
Individuals not members of any
of these organizations will also be
asked to petition the governor and
prison commission.
The Hendersonville. Kiwanis
club at its meeting yesterday went
on record as favOring the plan and
resolutions will be forwarded to
state officials. At its meeting next
Wednesday the matter will be
brought to the attention of the
Rotary club and it will be asked
to pass resolutions approving the
plan.
Judge Pless' plan, of course,
does not deal directly with juve-
nile delinquency. Juveniles in the
legal sense of the word are boys
or girls between the ages of II
and 16 years, and they are dealt
with by the juvenile courts. Those
between the ages of Is and Il,
however, are in the proper Jurls-
diction of the county courts OF
superior courts.
