Montana s Copper Trust Mobbmg DIHOH Suffers From Hostility to League Candidate for » ILLON, a small city south ¢| of Butte, Mont., is now reaping the harvest of its seeds of hate. Inspired by officers and clerks of a bank owned by the cop- per interests at Dillon, a mob attacked B. K. Wheeler, League and labor can- didate for governor and former Unit- ed States distriet attorney, and ‘F. L. Buzzell, a League organizer. The re- sult has been that the farmérs are pat- ronizing other towns and cities move friendly to them and their candidates. Before the meetmg, which was held recently, permission was asked of the mayor, J. E. Monroe, to hold the meet- ing in the city. - This he refused. Local residents with automobiles suggested that Wheeler and Buzzell hold the meeting outside the town limits, and the visitors, with many townspeople and ranchers from a wide radius, repaired to the ranch of Frank Mauritz, an overseas veteran, who re- sides just beyond the boundaries of Dillon. American Legion members followed the crowd, and they in turn were fol- lowed by Legion sympathizers. This company, numbering 75, was headed by two bank clerks named Hawkins and Whelan, employed in the First National bank, which is owned by the Anaconda Copper Mining company. In the gathering darkness Buzzell began to speak. Some heckling was started, but it was Wheeler that the mob wanted to get, and they impa- tiently withheld their hooting till he arose. Then they burst into an’ up- roar, hurling jeers and insults at the visitors. Finally, they rushed toward the automobile. There were cries of “Get the rope!” The mob was egged * on by a reporter for the Butte Daily Miner, an Anaconda company organ. Mauritz led Wheeler and Buzzell to a place of safety, then turned to do battle with the ruffians. 'He was knocked down and brutally kicked in }the face until his jaw was badly swol- en. v Losing sight of their prey the gang- Wheeler and Buzzell, in the night two automobile loads of ruf: fians came back to the Mauritz ranch, Governor and Attack on Defenders 2 routed out the young soldier-farmer and demanded to know if he had seen anything of the two speakers. Mauritz said he hadn’t. There was an early morning train out of Dillon for Butte, 69 miles away. The gangsters started for a-lonely hox- 4~ car station at Bond, a few miles out of Dillon, evidently intending to board the train and capture Wheeler - and Buzzell. Mauritz now felt it would. be wis- dom to get the two stralgers out of the vicinity. So he got g rifle, crank- ed his own ecdr, and started with Wheeler and Buzzell after the gang- sters. Passing them on the road, he sped on to the boxcar station, and he. and the other two got inside just as the gangsters drove up. MOB FRIGHTENED AWAY BY RIFLEMAN But the mob didn’t dare attack, for it had seen the man with the rifle enter the little station. The ruffians waited. outside until the train passed. Once they approached the bhoxcar and asked questions. Mauritz declared he would drill a hole through them if they at- tempted to molest Wheeler or Buzzell, and finally the mob slunk away. . Telephoning later to Butte, the two Nonpartisan men got Larry Duggen, undertaker, to drive to Bond in his automobile and take them to Butte. J. H. Gilbert, cashier of the First National bank, is a brother of the county attorney of Beaverhead coun- ty, in which the mobbing occurred, but neither the attorney nor Sheriff O. G. Gosman made any attempt to curb the lawlessness of the gangsters. The sheriff’s son is said to have been a member of the mob. Back of this attack is discerned the hatred of thé Anaconda mining in- terests. Wheeler incurred the enmity of the Anaconda interests in 1918, when he refused to prosecute members of organized labor simply to satisfy the whims of the copper crowd. His election as governor would mean dan- ger for the Anaconda owners, for a man in the governor’s chair who had the courage to resist being bought or intimidated could work great harm to them. . Minnesota’s Plan for New Campaign (Continued from page 4) how I can afford NOT TO GIVE $100 as the price of liberty, and T’ll give * $100 if it takes the last wheel off the old Ford car.” J. Wi Burke of Min- neapolis; a printer _ neapolis. Tribune, stood up. He made an eloquent speech | and pledged $100 to | the campaign fund. George F. Ballard of Blue Earth county spoke: “I have invest- ed $3,000 in our coun- ty paper. I own two shares of stock in the Daily Star and I'm a life member in the But I'll give $100 to this campaign fund. Tt takes money to make the mare go.” ~ There were many more impromptu? speeches from ' the flogr. Never was the “We’'ll stick” spirit more in evidence. Realizing that farm work was at its height, the massmeeting was orig- mally planned for the assembly room PAGE Thomas .Vollom, - -~ .League farmer, slated to be the League can for secretary of state on the Farmer-Labor ticket. in the Minnesota Daily Star building. Before half of the farmers had arrived it was seen that the assembly room would be inadequate. The crowd mov- ed to the biggest labor hall in the city, but this double- hall also- was too small. After a short address by Thomas Van Lear, former labor mayor of Minneapolis and secretary of the Work- ing People’s Nonparti- san Political league, the meeting was ad- ¥ journed to meet in the afternoon in the Min~ neapolis, auditorium.
