    Exhibit rolls out rare remnants of Montana's labor movement - By Daniel Person, The Bozeman Daily Chronicle, MT
    Art historian Elizabeth Darrow holds a “blackball box” that was once used for secret ballots in union votes to expel or accept union members, a tactic that is now illegal. The box is part of an exhibit of organized labor in Montana that concludes today in the Gallatin Labor Temple on East Mendenhall.
