Printers Plan Not Ditching Mediation Move In Butte
In a letter from Portland July 18 the Butte Typographical Union urges the Butte Mine Workers Union to grant five days for members to discuss a possible settlement with the Western Federation of Miners. If approved, three representatives from each side would meet to draft an agreement to be ratified by referendum. The note emphasizes miners’ welfare and unity, delaying further splits. Henry J Harper of Tacoma, pardoned by President Wilson, testified in Portland as part of a case involving fake land locators tied to Oregon California land grants.
