PLAIN T.tl.k.

Ii is not very tiattering to the pride of
any high-minded citizen to read the
open charges of bribery that are now
filling the leading papers of the state in
reference to the senatorial contest. The
following. clipped from the last issue Of
the Anaconda Standard. is a plain state
ment of what everybody at Helena APP
pears to regard as a dlsreputable fact:
The readers of the STANDARD outside
of the city of Helena have no idea with
what Il degree of shamelessness the esi-
dences OF corruption manifest them
e@Aelves at the temporary capital. There
are in that city men who came To Hell

admitted it without reserve. Some Of
these men can be seen almost any day
rioting in wine. holding high carnival
with prostitutes. tossing twenty dollar
gold pieces on faro layouts. living like
debauched princes and answering the

Dnuch more than generous that the

days ago: 1T appears that a man is an

The all absorbing question aside from
the Montana senatorial squabble is
whether or not the hoop skirt of thirty
years age is coming back to us again.
Fashion has decreed that it is. but not
outstanding that the garment had a

there have come conditions into onr life
since then that are decidedly antagonistic
to any form Of the hoop skirt. especially
the %"tilter." which in the days Of yore

much in vogue are calculated to discour-

indeed the fair sex are willing to become
