  • The Peoples Power League
    The Peoples power league : a progressive organization in Montana 1911-1915 by Edrie Lee Vinson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in History Montana State University © Copyright by Edrie Lee Vinson (1976) Abstract: K. Ross Toole, professor of Montana History, has characterized the progressive era in the state as nothing more than "sound and fury and one small tax reform," Yet in the general election of 1912 the electorate adopted four initiative measures reforming the political process. This unprecedented fact is certain evidence of the success of the progressive spirit in Montana's political history. In 1911, after repeated failures of Montana's assembly to legislate political reform, Miles Romney organized the People's Power League to circulate initiative petitions for a direct primary, presidential and vice presidential primary, popular nomination of senators, and a corrupt practices act. League leaders believed the passage of these measures would effectively take political power out of the hands of large corporate interests and give it to the people. Politically, the League contained Democrats, Republicans, Progressives, Socialists and laborites. None of the prominent members held state elective office at this time. Professionally, they were lawyers, judges, newspapermen, merchants, bankers, doctors, public employees, ranchers, farmers, and a large contingent of union affiliated laborers. Representing a wide ethnic variety, they also ranged from new arrivals on the Montana scene to the older pioneers who came with the first gold rush. Although the League managed to avoid economic, political and geographic schisms when dealing with political reform, it was only partially successful in achieving broad social changes.

  • Volunteer Opportunities Ways to Give Critter Camps
    Fostering a caring community for animals by providing shelter, advancing animal welfare, and promoting the bond between animals and humans through innovative programs, education and service. Maclean Animal Adoption Center F all/Winter 2016 Volunteer Ways to Give Critter Camps 3 Opportunities 4 7 Enhancing compassion through education Director’s note This year at the Maclean Animal Adoption Center (MAAC) yields many heartwarming stories personifying hope, survival, reunions and unconditional love. What happens as a result of the services we provide is what makes the world a better place. Miracles occur daily. To gain a better understanding of how, I ask that you picture the following: The worried eyes of a cat or dog entering our facility – he or she may have an aching heart or body and are likely unsure of what is ahead. The noises, scents, and visions are new and result in stress. The MAAC staff and volunteers are tasked with improving its life, healing its physical ailments and mending its broken heart. Now imagine: The happy heart and excited eyes of this same cat or dog as they leave our facility, reunited with their owner or given a second chance to provide and receive love through a new family. The emotionally and physically taxing yet rewarding work performed at the MAAC is made possible by the dedication and hard work of the MAAC staff, caring volunteers, concerned citizens, Board of Trustee members and generous donors, as well as the clients. This year my son, Roy, and I were given the gift of Tom Tom, a dog surrendered at the MAAC.
