He also became associated with Marcus Daly in his Electric Light, Street Railway, and Water Works department. After his father's death in 1898, Allen began to develop his Elkhorn Mine at Brundy (later renamed Coolidge for the President). The Elkhorn Mine became a major producer with a large processing mill. For eight years, starting in 1903, Allen also was a timber developer. He then began branching out into other enterprises, becoming involved in real estate, fire insurance, banking, and railroads. During most of the nineteen-teens, Allen lived in Boston, Massachusetts, where he established important business connections, which he used to finance his Montana enterprises. In 1913 he established the Boston and Montana Development Company. A subsidiary, the Butte, Wisdom, and Pacific Railway Company, was incorporated to build a rail line into the Big Hole Valley from the Oregon Short Line at Divide. Nothing came of this project, however, until after World War I, when the Montana Southern Railway Company--a reorganization of the Butte, Wisdom, and Pacific--started construction of a narrow gauge line." (from Archives West) ., William-Frederick Press, 1949, 2.75, London England: Frank Cass and Co Limited, 1983. Henry Mayhew's London Labour and the London Poor, written for the Morning Chronicle during 1849 to 1851, was only a part of a vast general survey covering the industrial, manufacturing and agricultural areas of England and Wales. This journalistic precedent set the state of the working classes of Britain before the public with clarity, insight and honesty. Consisting mainly of verbatim statements from the people themselves, it was as though the inarticulate masses had learned to speak with one firm voice. These volumes will do much to rectify the deficiencies in our knowledge of working-class life in 19th-century England and Wales, and to sharpen our perspective on and increase our understanding of the impact of industrialization .216pp including index.
