' It la difficult to forecast the action -?of the miners, but oh every iMa can be heard expressions favoring the pro- - posed Increase and the aentlment ex pressed la such aa would seem to Indl ' cate the paasage of the amendment to - the ' constitution of the miners' union "!" 'g for the Increase. ' President Duf fv of -the union states that there will be no strike; that the miners. If they ' vote for the increase, wlU request the raise . but not demand It. A shutdown of the Amalgamated Cop per company's mines will. affect about . 10.900 workmen in ' the state and pre cipitate an Industrial crisis In Butte, , the effect or which will be felt through ' out the state. The big smelters of the Amalgamated ; " at Great Falls and Anaconda, employing about 4,000 men, will be forced to close, - together with the coal mines and turn- ber carraps of the company. The sus , pension of these, smelters will force .'.'other mines throughout Montana and Idaho to close.
