One Big Union Called Dangerous Tool in Mining Fight
A. W. Muir of the American Federation of Labor in Butte denounces a single large union as a dangerous tool, praising engineers’ groups in Butte Great Falls and Anaconda for self-reliance. He argues miners lack organization and warns that such unions misrepresent communities, leave messes for workers to clean up, and threaten public welfare. He cites growth of the AFL and predicts Butte miners will align with the organization, as others have in the West.
