This morning at four o'clock an executive board member of the IWW, a cripple, Frank Little, was taken from his bed by members of gun men in the employ of the Anaconda Copper Company, shot and hanged. The cause of democracy can only be advanced by the Federal Goverment taking charge of the copper mines.
