It was to lie expected that not a
single one of those six vigilantes
who murdered Frank Little, orga
nizer of the 1. \Y. W. in Butte.
.Mont.. would lie apprehended by j
the law. When the brutal exter .
initiation of Anarchists I. W. \V. |
members, and other antagonists of j
plutocratic rule, is openly proposed
in Congress as a “national neces
sity,-' wl:y shouid the coroner ami
police in Butte exert themselves to
i find the cowardly murderers wiio
dragged a sick man from his bed at
night to lynch him. Didn't they do
it in the name of exploitation and
patriotism, the most sacred things
in the country
, The murder of Frank Little, the
courageous agitator who called
things by their name and therefore
was hated by the enemies of truth,
will never he punished by the
courts, hut it will be avenged by
the vigorous determination of all
true triends of justice not to desert
the banner 01 the social revolution
uitil the rotten conditions have
censed to exist which make such
foul deeds as committed in Butte
possible.
if the copper trust raises thej
price ol copper from nine cents to
thirty-one cents, thus gaining mil
lions of dollars in profits for its
owners -That's Patriotism.
It tlie workers in th ■ copper
mines ask for more money and 'Det
er working conditions - That's
Treason.
Bot'on the w..r spruce couldn't
be sold at any prune At present
the lumber trust is selling spruce
lumber ti. tin gov, rnraent at $105
for a tlu-usaud T t. and That's
Patriotism.
If the lumber ja< ks ask for an
eight-hour day. minimum of $Gu
per month, -.•lean sleeping rooms,
and shower baths in cutups —
That':. Treason.

The capitalists ot the warring
