Pat Points in
Passing Politics.

| 16. II, IS and 10, 1896. Contained in this
| pamphlet are reports to the national
councillor from the deputy national
| councillors of each state. Among these
reports is one signed J. r. Creighton,
deputy national councillor for Montana
In the course of his report, Mr.. Crelgh-
| ton tells about the growth of the order
| in Montana, tells of some of the prom
inent people and officials who belong to
it and then says:
IT have made almost a personal can
vass of this city of 4O,0 900 people and the
only reason that the Junior takes here
is the opposition to it. 1t comes from
| unlocked for sources. The Irish are
our friends and will do anything to help
| us. There are about LOGO votes in this
| county from Ireland, 1,500 from Eng
land, 300 from Canada, 500 from Swe-
den 5000 straight American born, 1900
assortment of high. low, large and small.
| And heretofore the English captured
| the county and the Canadians the city,
while the native born stood by and Won
| dered how they did, but like the Yanks
| in Boston, there is going to be tea
| party in Butte one of these days.
| THE hardest opposition we have met
as yet has been from the Cousin Jacks
| (Englishmen from Lands End, and
| our Northern brother who owes allie
glance to the queen. A Canadian thinks
as much of Junior as he does Of a
rattlesnake."
Doesn't that look as though the
| Junior order is interested in BIPARTISAN
politics?"
