4 Social Event.

The prettiest party of the season" so said the guests who were so royalty entertained yes. terday afternoon by Mrs. Charlie F. Pittman, at her beautiful cot tage home, in honor of Miss Lewis the prospective March bride. As amusement for two de- lightful hours, Hearts were play ed, and many were the peals of joyous laughter as some would progress and others be left sta tionary as it were. Long before the guests grew weary of the game the hostess began to spread her dainty embroidered linens on the tables, followed by the choic- est of refreshments, such as roast turkey, celery, sweet peas, creamed potatoes, hot biscuit and lemon ice. The most delicious Angel cake" with the Poets Delight" were served, and then each guest was given a token of the history of the day, George Washington souvenir in the shape of crude cherry stumps, or cards of cherry poles bound together, and laid on the top of which was either bunch of cherries or cherry blossoms with the pro- verbal little hatchet. These were filled with delicious candy cher ries.
 The score cards used were in various scenes of the great states mans life-in fact everything was typical of the day as we'll as an expression of good will which will follow the young and pretty bride. to-be.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION PLANNED

A movement is on foot among the
young men OF the city that points
strongly to the immediate organiza-
ton of an athletic association. A Pc
tition is being circulated and as soon
as enough signers are secured mass
meeting will be called and the move-
ment got under way. The plan, as
hastily outlined, proposes the con-
struction of a building by popular
subscription that will be suitable for
such games as basket ball, indoor
baseball, handball and other gymna-
SUM sports. There is an abundance
of athletic material in the city and
the. only thing that has denied the
young men their formation of athletic
teams has been the need of a suitable

sent Ravalli as he did on that memoir
ial occasion the county had better go
without representation for the next
thousand years. In proof of this let
us review that affair.
Toward the close of the eleventh
legislative assembly, or to be exact,
on February 18, 1909, just at the time
when the passage of house bill No. 100
seemed likely to cause an explosion at
Helena that would awaken the state,
Ben Plummer and his associate, Chas.
l.. CoWell, business partner Of Sena-
tor Dixon, together with Representa-
tive Crutchfield, Attorney Baggs and
Wagner and other paid agents Of the
Anaconda Copper Mining company,
suddenly started a Cry throughout the
Bitter Root valley that through the
medium Of senate bill is, local ditch
company was seeking to grab the
water rights in the Bitter Root and
bond the county to pay for it's ditch.
They held mass meetings, passed res
olutious at Steyensyille, Corvallis,
Victor and Hamilton declaring that
it was "the sense Of the people OF the
Bitter Root valley that Senate bill Is

and instructing the Rayalli delega-
tion in the legislature to do this. And
they sent a delegation of "Aome pro
tectors," whose expenses were paid
to the capital to fight the measure
Just who put up the money to pay al
expenses has never been diVulged
Then for days one of the big items
dignified with scare heads in the daily
newspapers, all of which are owned
/ by the Anaconda Copper Mining com
pany, told Of the fight against Senate
Bill 18. and the home protectors
clamored around Helena until they
became a standing joke.
Why the ditch company should want
to grab anybody's water right wher
it already had good and sufficien
rights, as has since been demonstrat
ed beyond doubt or how it could MAKE

PLUMMER, THE PRINCE OF PREvAR|CATORS

Ben Plummer, Carter Dixon candi-
date for the state senate, sounded his
war cry and displayed his customary
tactics when, in the county conven-
ton, he called Bob O'Hara liar, fol-
lowing a little speech wherein Mr.
O'Hara informed the convention that
Mr. Plummer had always been a cor
pOration heeler and at that moment
was an employe OF the big ditch COM
pany.
This is a habit with Ben. To gain
point or circumVent the other fellow
he is ever ready 10 raise the cry of
wolff" or pass tie lie. We incline
to the belief lhaI possibly Ben was not
born that way-perhaps his environ
ment and political training have had
something to do with it. For nearly
20 years Plummer has been connected
with the political departments of big
Butte corpOrations-in the capacity OF
ward heeler and lobbyist in city coun-
ellis and legislatures. Since the COR
porations are usually looking for the
best Of it and frequently gain their
ends by questionable means their
/ agents are constantly in an atmos-
phere OF duplicity, deceit and treach-
/ cry. knowing that results alone
count, and being provided with the
means, they resort to bribery, lying
deceit and anything else to accom-
| plish the purpose.
Whether endowed by nature with
! gifts along this line or whether he
merely acquired the art, we will not
undertake to say, but the fact remains
that Plummer achieved high stand
ing in the Amalgamated company
political and secret service and ad-
mittdly was we'll paid for his work
Having acquired a competency he
came to the Bitter Root and settled
down on a hog ranch.

On Wednesday evening at Cogyal-
lis, Attorney Geo. r. Baggs at 4 re-
publican rally charged H. c. Croft
democratic nominee for state sena-
tor, with having signed pledge, ex-
acted by the RavalH Saloonmen's
league, whereby he agreed to support
and oppose certain legislation affect
ing the saloon interests. This state
ment has been repeated at republi-
can rallies held since ut Florence and
Stevensville by Mr.. Ba&gs.
At Victor, Mr.. Baggs claims that
he did not repeat the charge, in de-
ference to Mr.. Groff's request Dis
cussing the matter in an interview
MI. Baggs said;
"As | alighted from the automobile
at Victor" said Mr. Baggs, Mr.. Croft
came up to meet me and requested me
not to repeat the statement | had
made at Corvallis the previous even
ing, at which time ! had statd that
Mr.. Croft had signed an agreement
with the saloons by which he prom
ised to vote against any attempted leg
islation designed TO curtail the bust
ness of the saloon. | told Mr.. Croft
that | had right to make the state
ment as it was entirely true, and that
he had been working both ends and
the middle in signing the saloon
agreement and also baslting under an
Endorsement from the Civic league.
81 told him that / would make no
promise in regard to the meeting that
evening until | had seen w. p. Baker,
chairman OF the committee. MI Croft
then said: 1 lied when | told the
Civic league and w. =. Baker that |
had not signed the saloon agreement.
You have me beaten anyway, so why
say anything about it here in my home
town We then went 10 see Mr.. Bak-
er and Mr.. Croft reiterated his state
ment that he lied when he had denied
signing the saloon agreement. Out OF
consideration to Mr. Grorrs wishes
we did not mention t&e facts at our
meeting last evening"
Perry Baker, when seen yesterday,
corroborated MT, Bagg8 statement.
Every word OF it is absolutely true,
emphatically declared Baker.
