Representative Bertrand Fl. Smell
of New York comes down regularly
from the Potsdam district of the
Empire state, no matter If Demo
cratic national candidates do carry
the state by more than million.
The same is true Of Representative
Allen T. Treadway and Representa-
tive Edith Nourse Rogers OF Massa-
chusetts.
Some of the advocates Of the plan
say that actually it would be help
to such Republicans not to have any
national Republican organization
cluttering up the situation. OF
course, in Mr.. SHELLS case it would
deprive him Of the leadership of the
Republicans in the house-perhaps
and it might play hob with COM
mittee assignments in both house
and senate.
But the real objective, of course,
is to encourage the split in the
Democratic party-to permit the
country to>>have two real parties
again. Nor is it an answer, say
those advocating it, to say that the
Republican party polled more than
$4,000, 900 votes in the last election,
and that anything as strong as that
should be preserved.

CHAPTER X

They reached the top of the hill
and followed its. crest to Kenning s
cabin. He was not there. At last
they turned away, Jeanne IN the
lead, heading for Kay Joyce's cot
tage. Jack Hammond acquiesced;
horrible thoughts were running
through his brain; he could not
thrust them away.
.Kayln he called at the edge of
the veranda. Kay! Come out
here"
The door few open and Kay came
bubbling forth. Her expression
changed at the sight of Jeanne, and
Jack Hammond, grimly silent, be-
side her.
"Kayl" he demanded. Where's
Bruce Kenning2'
isn't he IN his cabin" Then,
whats come over you--so excit-
ed.
you've a good idea OF what's
come over hinl" Jeanne interject-
ed coldly. Kay shot her a glance
of unconcealed enmity.
"So?" she asked and dismissed
her for the man. Jack, whatever
is all this about? Is something ter
ribly wrong2.'
TERRIBLY. That's why I've got
to find Bruce Kenning. :
HE wants to tell him." Jeanne
added, that he's found out how
you two have been tricking him"
Kay Joyce advanced sharply.

Kenning."
Jeanne Towers looked up. A
change had come over the girl, a
queer, awakening sort Of meta
morphosis. She seemed stalwart,
determined, as though doubts and
fears which long had harassed her
had disappeared. There was crisp
ness in her voice, almost command.
"I'n go with you, Jack" she said.

DR.. TERRILL ASSURES
UNIONS OF SINCERE
DESIRE TO COOPERATE

An article appearing in the Mon
tana Labor News of May goth en-
titled "Flagrant Violations of Eight
Hour Laws at Galen Hospital"
caused considerable comment in
union circles and also by other peo-
pie who are interested in state in
stitutions and particularly at Galen
which is the hospital operated by
the state of Montana for the care of
tuberculosis patients. The article
referred to alleged that certain vio-
lations of the constitution of the
state of Montana and the 8 hour
laws were being violated. The ex-
cuse for working the employees at
state institutions more than 8 hours
a day in the past has been that the
state Legislature had not appropri-
ated sufficient funds to permit the
superintendent and other officers to
place the institutions on a strictly
8 hour basis.
A representative of the Montana
Labor News interviewed DR.. Frank
Terrill, acting superintendent of
Galen, and discovered that DR.. Ter
rill has only held the position since
May LIST. DR.. Terrill has always
been sympathetic with labor and its
aims through being a member of
the Mill and Smeltermen's Union.
He clearly shows his understanding

public the benefit derived under the
NRA, a section of our 1884 agree
ment that reads as follows: BE
ginning after July 4th, and during
the months of July and August,
textile clerks shall work five days
of eight hours each per week. Ex-
ecutives to be allowed n day off
every other week after July 4th
during the months of July and
August. Textile establishments
shall open at 9 a. m. and close at
6 p. M" This agreement was in eff
feet from May 7th, 1884, to May
rs, 1886, two of the worst years of
the depression, and the wage scale
was $28.75 per week for men, or
$5.75 per day, and $4,000 per week
for women, or $500 per day; the
same for extra help. This was not
an increase in weekly earnings,
which have not been changed since
1919. We wish to point out to the
public that the NRA did help the
Clerks, and if the merchants could
pay $5.75 per day to men and $500
to women in 1884 and 1885, why
not give the Clerks some considera-
ton?
At this time the merchants insist
on a 42-hour week of six days. We
feel that we are entitled to six days
pay which would be a 20 per cent
increase. They expect us to work
six days and only pay for five.
Hoping that this will clarity the
situation regarding the Clerks de-
mands, we remain,
Respectfully yours,

enc Committee.

en- by him that this unit of the social
institutions conducted by the state
of Montana will cooperate with or
ganized labor in its efforts to COM
pei conformance to the laws of the
state, and to prevent any exploita-
ton of the employees, are gratifying
indeed.
We have additional assurances by
DR.. Terrill that if the conditions
complained of actually exist at
Galen, that he will rectify them.
His statements were very frank and
sincere. Organized labor should be
pleased that a man of the liberal
attitude of DR.. Terrill has been
placed in this very important posi-
ton.

The speaker expressed his pleas

James D. Graham emphasized the
support organized labor had always
given to the University and free
schools in general. He pointed out
that if it had not been for the coun-
ties in which organized labor is
strong, the millage levy for the Uni

They found their cue finally in the current advertising campaign Of a promi-

WHY The HUGHES STORE SIGNED With
The CLERKS UNION IMMEDIATELY
AFTER The STRIKE WAS DECLARED

Hughes store, retailers of womens apparel, located at
Sc w. Park St, are known TO be Butte's busiest store and
it is said the store sells more apparel than any store of its
type in Montana.
Over $500 women have garments in the store at this
writing that they have purchased and the store is holding
with a deposit.
Practically all these women live in Butte and are in
some way connected with unions or are affected by union
actions.
To prove to these 1900 or more women and to the rest
of the city of Butte that Hughes are reliable, loyal and APP
preciative of their business, the manager of Hughes, Lawr-
ence Mckinley, decided the only fair thing to do was to
sign for the clerks Immediately so that the women of Butte
could continue purchasing there, knowing the store was
fair to Butte and its workers.
To show its true character and gratitude TO the people
of Butte, including those connected with various unions, for
their patrOnage-the store signed for the clerks and inn
mediately put their entire staff at work the first morning
of the strike.
The Hughes store feels that the first duty of the store
is to give unexcelled service to its customers and that the
only way to give this service is to have the clerks cOntented
with their salary and enjoy their wOrk-as no one can truth
fully give loyal support or good honest service to customers
if the store they work for is not fair to them.
Hughes realize that the clerks are demanding $27.OO a
week and believes this is a fair wage and that if every
other store, now closed or open without clerks, would pay
this wage that it would make Butte a much happier shop
ping center and greatly improve the domestic conditions
of the city,
From ten to eighteen people are employed at Hughes which
is more help per floor space than any store in tOwn-and
regardless of clerks wages, the store will continue to give
its customers good service and loyal support to the city
of Butte.

through division of government into
units called States, the rights and
