Frank Little (1879-1917) joined the radical union the Industrial Workers of the World in 1906. He organized miners, lumberjacks and oil field workers.
Little opposed World War I, and frequently spoke against it.
In 1917 Little was kidnapped from his hotel room, beaten, dragged behind a car, and lynched from a railroad trestle. A note pinned to his body declared, "First and last warning".
