for submission to the senate, however
Clark obtained the floor and, after
denying the charges of fraud and col
fusion which had been made against
him, announced that he had resigned
and that his resignation was at that
time in the hands of the governor OF
Montana. That was on May IL, 1900
The senator's action, of course, headed
off action by the senate upon the COM
mittee report.
The governor Of Montana was Robert
B. Smith. He at that particular time
was absent from the state and Lieuten-
ant Governor A. E. Spriggs was acting
governor. On May IL, 1900, Spriggs APP
pointed Senator Clark to succeed him
self as senator. Smith, upon his return
to the state, declared Spriggs appoint
ment Of Clark invalid, and named Mai.
Martin AAaginniSs to the post. Major
Maginniss went to Washington with
his credentials, but the senate refused
to seat him Clark presented his new
credentials, and they were given no
more consideration than those of
Maginniss had received. AS a result the
seat in the senate remained vacant
for year.
In the campaign in the fall of 1900,
Clark again took an active part with
the senate again his goal. Enough of
his friends we're elected to the legiS-
lature to give him a toehold in the
assembly and he was eventually elected
over Thomas H Carter, republican, by
q vote Of 56 to &c. The celebration
followed.

Montana Woman Pioneer of 79
Says She Grew Up" at Age s

| Ia, Mrs. Townsend, then Hottie Fos-
| ter. started with her parents in April,
1858, for Montana. The family stopped
the first winter in Green River, WyO.,
then Utah territory, and left for Mon
tana the following March.
Snow was deep that March and the
oxen team sometimes made only a mile
and a half day. The Fosters ar
rived at Alder guich, April 80. 1854
Their arrival was greeted with bliz-
card which blasted snow into the
covered wagon. The trip west had been
made by MRS. ToWnsends family and
by her uncle and aunt and two nieces.
Her uncle tore up the wagon box to
make the coffin for his wife and their
smaller girl and wrapped the bodies
in a white blanket which the wife had
made. 1t was a burial Mrs. Townsend
hasn't forgotten.
The Foster family remained at Alder
gulch year and then went into the
Jefferson valley, where the ten children,
most OF them younger than MRS. Town
given them by their mother. Textbooks
were the Bible and McGuffey's speller.
Hettie Foster and Taylor d. Town
send were married in September, 1873,
by the Rev. Hugh Duncan, father of
Montana Methodism The service took
place at the home of the late Harrison
Jordan at Fish creek.
Recollections of the early days in
clude the solemn assertion of Mrs.
Townsend, that when left Iowa,
was woman. People don't know any
thing about those days and they don't
think about them now, when they
drive around in their palatial cars"
Alder g1lch and the gold rush, how
ever, failed to leave raw marks on the
little girls mind, for the nuggets which
she picked out Of the sluice boxes were

gathered in her apron, ignorant Of
their value. Her complete formal
schooling Mrs. Townsend estimates

Three Days TO Recover
Helena didn't recover from that cele-
bration for three days. The morning
after was a bad one While the liquor
had been no provision made for serving
free Bromo Settler.
Empty champagne Bottles were
hauled away from the downtown bars
and hotels by the drayload. Senator
Clark's bill for the nights festivities
never was known exactly, but it was
estimated by men who knew what they

put in bill for $1,000 and had empty

the idea after first few glasses /

In the hotels the next day, from early /

there was a ceaseleSS procession of /

demon rum. He was told by some of
his companions that the champagne

Mrs. Hettie Foster Townsend OF
Whitehall, 79-year-old Montana pio-
neer woman. who grew up when she
was six years old and after her parents
had started an oxen-team trek into
the west, was a recent visitor In Great
Falls, the guest Of her son and daugh-
ter-in-law, MIR. and Mrs. E. w. Town
send.
Hardships Of pioneering are no idle
stories. Mrs Townsend says, nor did
she, as a 6-year-old girl, ever forget
the aunt and baby girl who were buried
in a grave in unmarked country and
whose coffin was reinforced with stone
slabs to protect it from the wolves.
When grandSons and great-grand chill
dren talk about wanting to pioneer in
new country, Mrs. Townsend SHOWS no
enthusiasm. Not for me-" is her COM
ment on that one, Il don't want any
more new country"
Physically and mentally active, with
considerably more black than gray
hair in her coiffure, the pioneer woman
bellies her age and looks more like a
60-year-old than woman approaching

! that the celebration was worth al
/ it cost him, for, as stated, it eliminated
! eleven years of political effort which
/ to that time had been unavailing.
/ Clark's first appearance as a candi-
date in the Montana political field
was shortly after the admission Of
the territory to statehood in 1889. The
first session of the legislature after
the state was admitted to the union,
elected two United States senators.
Clark was a candidate for one Of the
posts. The legislature was split on the
proposition. One faction elected Clark
and Major Martin MaginniSs senators,
one for the long and one for the short
term. The other faction elected Col.
w. F. Sanders, brilliant early-day Mon
tana lawyer who won fame as the
prosecutor for the Vigilantes when
that group cleaned Virginia City. and
other Montana mining camps OF the
bands Of organized outlaws which IN
tested them, and the late I. Q. Power,
one of the territory'S most prominent
merchants. bankers and stockmen.
Election Contested
Clark and Maginniss contested the
election of the other two before the
senate committee on privileges and
elections at Washington, and lost. On
March "a, 1890, Sanders and Power
were seated as Montana's first United
states senator's.
Clark again sought the senatorial
toga in 1893, but was unsuccessful be-
cause of the opposition of Marcus
DAILY, at that time head Of the Ana
conda Copper Mining company.
In 1894 came the capital fight. Clark
espoused the cause OF Helena. DAILY
advocated Anaconda as the seat of the
state government. The matter was de-
cided by a vote Of the people. 1t was
a bitter and mercileSS campaign. Money
was spent freely and both Clark and
DAILY had plenty of 1t to spend. Clark
won the fight. Helena was victorious.
Present-day MontananS who are ia
miliar only with the latter day de-
velopment of the state, may visualize
how far it has come since 1894 by the
fact that Helena was chosen by 27,024
votes as against rs, lib for Anaconda,
and there were mighty few voters in
the state who failed to cast their ballots
upon the question.
A total of 52,142 voteSl There are
counties with that many votes in them
today, and this was a statewide ballot
upon a question in which there was
keen interest and following campaign
which stirred every nook and Granny
of the state.
Clark was again a candidate for
United States senator at the legislative
session Of 1899, and was elected. But
there were bitter charges Of fraud
made In connection with this election,
and after a long hearing before the
senate committee on privileges and
elections, that body drew up report

RATTLESNAKE Is
BEEF COMPETITION

Much impressed with the growth
of the cattle industry In Florida
and Georgia was John III. BOOz,
pioneer cattleman Of eastern Mon
tana and northern Wyoming, upon
his recent return TO Billings after a
six-mOnth visit I'm the two southern
states.
But more impressed was he with the
beef industry'S newest competition -
the canning OF rattlesnake meat, now
an established Florida industry. The
states one factory now employs 20
persons, preserves the white, tender
flesh Of is or 20 rattlers average
weight 80 pounds daily, MIR. Booz re-
one restaurant near the factory site
specializes in rattlesnake meat dishes.

landers," Mr.. Booz observed.
who later established residence in
Georgia, Mr.. Booz, who Is 70. visited
the old home sites on his recent trip,
the longest he's made In several
years"
Mr.. Booz first struck Montana be-
hind a Texas trail herd In the early
80g. He's been In this section Of the
country ever since. Until 1914 he was
associated with T. A. Bnidow as joint
owner Of the Garvin Basin Cattle COM
pany, near Lowell, Wyo. MIR. Booz goes
back to the south every now and
then" for periodical visits.
On his latest trip he was especially
observing OF the meat and poultry In

conclusion: There's not enough milk

DIR, Arthur L. Day, director Of
the geophysical laboratory Of the
Carnegie Institute Of Washington,
ID. d., following a thorough study
Of the natural wonders OF renow
stone park, says the dudes" need
have no fears that some of the
geysers are going dry.
Unalterably refuting the oft-expressed
opinion of repeat visitors that activity
In the Mammoth hot springs area is
diminishing, Yellowstone park natural
lists point to the six new or reJuVenated
springs which are this year building
up large new terraces and widening out
beautiful colored pools. The naturalist
staff Of the park service is amply sup
co-author of the complete manual en-
titled Hot Springs Of Yellowstone
Park"
Mammoth Good
'The springs of the Mammoth area
still enjoy just as great flow as ever," .
DIR. Day reports, adding that he and
his co-workers have checked every
available source and record as far back
as the early 80's. Il observed the
springs personally the first time IN
1922. and then have checked closely
each year for the past five years Every
present comparison with records 80
years back leaves todays springs with
a very favorable showing"
DIR. Day did point out that there
is considerable fluctuation between the
percentage Of flow that goes on above
the surface as against the proportion
that flows below. However, he adds that
this variation has practically no effect
whatever on the total flow.
Excellent traces of the constant shift
in activity is provided this year by the
twin pools which began activity In the
Summit basin last March, according
TO George c. Grove, assistant park
naturalist. The Basin pool was active
in 1872, for it was then named by the
HAYDEN survey party. However, for
wears It has been completely dormant
and the terraces built In former years
had become gray and powdery. In fact
a walking trail had traversed the basin
for many years, until last season q

tive within another year.
Jupiter terrace and the springs that
have built up this greatest of all
mounds have greatly Increased their
activity. This season three distinct
flows Of water are stretched out over
the large surface of the terrace and
flowing down over the gigantic mound
that was once all covered as Jupiter
terrace.
YOungster
Baby spring, q youngster only a few
years ago, now has three distinct out
lets, one carrying sufficient pressure
to shoot the stream foot high. This
spring broke through right on the edge
of a road looping about the top of
Terrace hill. 1t has shifted its major
the trail now, and already has built
up four or five terraced lodges with a
total depth of about five feet.
Referring to Old Faithful, DR.. Day
states that during the period from 1871
to the present there has been abso-
lutely no evidence of any change in
the amount of flow, the force and the
length of eruptionS or the intervals
between them, and it should continue
on for thousand years as now. Its
frequency of spouting Is from IS to 80
minutes, usually 65 minutes, rising 100
to ITO feet and lasting 4 minutes. The
heat Of the water Is POOL degrees
Fahrenheit.
The Imperial geyser which came In
July, 1928, throwing a column 65 To

Paradise Town Is
Correctly Named

Paradise proved itself true to name
to a family of transients who were
riding the freights westward and had
stopped off between trains to appeaSe
their hunger on a rainy night recently,
according to story just learned.
The family consisted of the father,
mother and four young children. When
their predicament became known, a
collection was taken up among town
residents and enough money was raised
to pay for a nights accommodation at
the hotel for the mother and children
and to buy tickets for the five as far
as Standpoint on train No. 3, the follow
ing day The family is said to have
started from eastern Montana.
