392 THE SCROLL.United States congressman, a governor of Montana, a mayorof the city of Butte, an associate justice of the Montana supremecourt and a number of district judges in Silver Bowcounty.Heinze's resistance to Amalgamated Copper is universallyacknowledged to have been the strongest which that industrialgiant has ever encountered. At times he was the under-dogand dangerously close to ruin, but like the knight of old, hefell only to rise again to more determined combat and itseems that the more often he was floored the more energetic washis prowess in the next round of the long fight. His legal, political,financial and personal battles, if properly written up,would furnish hundreds of pages of interesting and excitingreading. Though less than forty years of age, and still in theprime of his manhood he is a multi-millionaire and his'fortunerepresents the result of the effort of less than a score ofyears. Regarding Heinze the man, it has been said:With the miners Heinze has always been very popular. He is temperamentallyan aristocrat, but he can play the demagogue with any walkingdelegate of them all. The miners like him because he is a hard-rock minerand knows his business, because he has shown himself to be on their sideand appeals to their class prejudices by attacking corporations and trusts.1 lis versatility is quite unusual. An expert mining engineer and a businessman with a grasp for big things in all their infinite details, he is at thesame time a good linguist, something of a musician, an astonishingly cleverpolitician, and a campaigner who cannot speak without winning votes. Hissplendid physique and handsome face are reinforced by a winning magnetism.When Heinze smiles he seems to take you into his confidence as oneworthy of every consideration.Bro. Heinze became the president of the Montana OrePurchasing Company, the general manager of the LiquidatorConcentrating and Sampling Works and a member of thestaff of the B and M. Journal. He is a member of theAmerican Institute of Mining Engineers and other engineeringsocieties, and of the following organizations, among others:Phi Delta Theta Club of New York City, the TildenClub, the St. James Club (Montreal) the Downtown Club,the Crescent Athletic Club (Brooklyn) the Montana Club(Helena) and the Silver Bow Club (Butte.)BERNARD M.
