It was the Kth annual, affair spon sored .by the republican organiza tions, of the city, county and state. Claude K. lngalls. editor of the Corvallis Ciazetto-Times, and prin cipal speaker of the evening, stressed Lincoln's belief in party government and party regularity. In touching on Lincoln's private life Ingalls made an appeal to the women to take steps to repudiate the "Ann Hut ledge myth" to the effect Lincoln had gono through life with a broken heart because of Ann's death. This story is marked by malici ous falsehood, Ingalls said, declar ing it is time to accord Mrs. Lin coln her rightful place in history.
