The Hill Men of Anaconda Work In a Mighty Plant
A vivid portrait follows the 700 to 800 mechanics at Anaconda as they toil on the new reduction plant. Workers depart each evening by trolley, bicycles, or freight trains, forming an industrious, diverse, mobile corps. The piece highlights skilled Boston, New York, Pittsburgh, and Indianapolis crews, and separates three railroad grading camps from the main hill labor.
