Removing Ruins of Miners Hall in Butte Destruction Amid Historic Union Recall
Partially destroyed by dynamite in 1914, the Butte Miners union hall on North Main Street is being razed. The building’s long history includes founding meetings in 1878, incorporation in 1881, loss of the charter, and a 1918 US Supreme Court affirmation that the hall belonged to the union. The old union still exists in dormancy with non-revoked incorporation papers.
