SECURE PASSAGE OF
FORT PECK POWER BILL

Senate concurs in House amend
ments."
Wheeler Gets Measure Through
Senate
Word has been received from Sen
ator Wheeler also describing quite
in detail his participation in the pro
gram of power development in Fort
Peck since June of last year. He
stated that in the month of 1897 he
introduced the bill and it was passed
by the Senate in the first week Of
August Presumably after that, it
was submitted to the House and then
passed on to the Rivers and Harbors
Committee, finally being reported
out favorably. By March of this
year there had been no favorable
action by the House. Wheeler then
submitted an amendment which was
adopted All that appears to be
necessary now is that the Senate
concur in the House amendment.
Both Senator Wheeler and Con
gresham Jerry O'Connell seem con
fident that the measure will be ap-
proved by President Roosevelt.

ladies in turn promised to give their
full cooperation.
Ladies Auxiliaries are becoming
more and more important in the
labor movement, and every union
man should see that his wife, mother,
sister, or daughter joins the local

and train the women to become
union minded so they may help

national officers before being able
to agree to the set Of resolutions
finally adopted.
The program, as finally adopted,
embodies nine points. One of the
most important planks is that no
officer of the new council can be a
man who has held an office in the
old council or who has acted as a
business agent in the old council un-
til after the expiration of one year.
Attempting to strengthen public
confidence in organized labor by do
ing away with strikes to as large an
extent as is possible, one resolution
reads:
"There shall be no action taken
by any craft at any time which may
lead or call for a stoppage of work
without first referring the question
in dispute to the executive board for
their recommendation"
Mr.. James explained that under
this resolution a contractor could
plan to go ahead with construction
work on a project without the fear
that his men might be 'jerked7 off
the job unexpectedly for minor mat
tiers. In the past that has happened
here not infrequently.
"Laboring men," Mr.. James said,
Cannot afford to strike. The con
tractor does not want them to strike
and the public suffers when they do.
We feel that as a result of this meet
ing we have evolved a practical plan
which in the future will work for the
protection of both the employer and
the employee and bring more annie
able relations within the building
trades group"

GALEN INSTITUTION Isl
DEPRIVED OF PROPER
Bus TRANSPORTATION

For many years a bus line was
operated between Butte and Deer
Lodge which accommodated many
of the little way stations along the
route, including the state institu-
tions, Warm Springs, Galen, and the
game farm.
The people were SO accustomed to
boarding this conveyance they took
it for granted that it was a perma-
nent means of transportation. Re
Gently, however, the Washington
Motor Coach System, with the con-
sent of the railroad commission,
gobbled up this little concern and
the accommodations to the people
between Butte and Deer Lodge have
been severely lessened. The Wash
ington Motor Coach may say that its
schedules are ample but it must be
remembered that the main highway.
is at least a mile from the Galen
hospital and patients and visitors
must travel this mile on foot unless
they have a conveyance of their
own. Furthermore, employees of the
institution who formerly paid visit
to Butte on their days off, especially
on Saturdays, and spent their money
with the merchants here, are now
prohibited from doing this-there is
no way to get to Butte.
It does seem strange that the rail-
road commission should have per

The Trades Council is protesting
to the Prison Board and also the
warden at the penitentiary, stating
that the laws Of the United States
unqualifiedly permit men to organ
ize themselves and to bargain collec-
lively. Any repression by employers
either private or state is not toler-
ated.
The Musicians Union is eager that
the public take cognizance Of their
participation in the KGIR programs.
It was announced to the unions last
Tuesday night that the Musicians
now have a regular assignment on
KGIR. One phase of the Musicians
schedule is at o'clock Friday morn

Gil last Tuesday night. He gave a
comparison of the sales tax and the
transaction tax and showed where
the latter tax is very equitable way
of raising money.
The speaker mentioned that if the
Townsend plan was in effect here
now that unemployment would be
practically out of existence. The
delegates Of the Council listened with
interest to his remarks.
A communication was received
from Marion, Indiana, stating that
