The battle for supremacy was clearly a battle of wits between Bat Hara, the bully of the burg, and Mrs. Bill Punkley, who had aspirations of her own. Despite the well laid plans of both leaders, the vote seemed destined to result in a tie, which would have defeated the cause of the women had not Mrs. Bill foreseen the result and locked her hubby up in the spare bedroom. When counting shows a "tie vote," Mrs. Bill hikes to her home, and hauls the objecting but necessary voter to the polls. The women win. The male contingent are turned out of office, and the suffragettes take over the reins of government. Mrs. Bill steps into the office of the chief of police and friend husband is relegated to the kitchen and the ironing board. Things happen to Bill's biscuits, and he leaves by the nearest window without even saying goodbye. The Roaring Gulch Petticoat Fire Department responds. The house burns down. Finding nothing else to do, the ladies turn the hose on Bill, and at least quench all his desire for future suffrage, Roaring Gulch brand or otherwise.
