JOHNSTON OR LOOMS.
Washington Thinks Other Can
didates Are Out of Race.

Washington, Nov. 10.-It is becoming
a settled conviction here that either
Loomis or Johnston will be appointed
judge. It is believed that the other
candidates are practically out of the
running. Loomis is the most active
candidate on the ground. Johnston's
absence from Washington is commented
favorably upon by many here who be-
lieve it is beneath the dignity of a sil-
preme court judge to participate active
ly in a scramble for office
James A. Troutman of Topeka arrived
last night. On the same train with
him came Justice Pollock whom he is
bitterly opposing. His antagonism
grows out of Pollocks dissenting opin-
ion in De Boissiere case Eugene f. Ware
is also fighting Pollock, owing to Pol
locks attitude in the Johnston case
from Doniphan county when the firm of
Gleed, Ware & Gleed were disallowed
certain claims and accounts. Congress-
man Bowersock talked to the president
about judgeship today. The president
reiterated his statement that he would
appoint whom ever the delegation agreed
upon but if it did not agree upon some
body soon he might have to make the
appointment upon his own judgment.

Maine, one to ten; Indiana, one to

Cache Valley Banking Company were
filed with the County Clerk on Monday
of last week and the opening of
the new bank took place Monday,
June 18th. The offices of the Utah
Mortgage Loan Corporation have been
entirely remodeled, modern bank fix
lures have been added, and the new
bank opens for business under most
favorable conditions, and with
assurances of large patronage.
The stockholders are for the most
part Utah men, in fact, Cache Valley
capital controls the bank; still East
ern capitalists are sufficiently inter-
ested and arrangements are already
consumatcd, whereby ample facilities
are assured for all demands Of legiti-
mate banking and for furnishing capt.
tai whenever required for the upbuild-
ing of Cache Valley and Utah. 1t
might be added that all of the furni-
ture of the new bank, as well as the
photographic work and the signs that
adorn the building are products of
Utah workmen.
A general banking business will be
conducted, and special feature is
made of the Savings Department,
where deposits will be received in
amounts of One Dollar and upwards
and interest paid on same, compound
ed quarterly.
The officers of the bank are Thomas
Oldham, president; Geo. ii. Champ,
ice-president: A. II. Thompson,
second vice-president: j. T.. Shepard,

The general loan business of the
Utah Mortgage Loan Corporation
will be conducted as heretofore i'm
their quarters on Tithing Once cor
ner, but will be entirely separate and
distinct from that of the bank.
The business of this Corporation
was established in 1892, incorporated
1896 under the laws of the State of
Utah and has steadily grown from
year to year until now it enjoys the
largest farm loan business Of any con-
Germ in the State, and is better pre-
pared than ever before to meet the
demands of its customers.

In some of the settlements i'm this
county and those adjacent thereto,
men are observed working on the
Sabbath day. In some extreme cases
Sunday work might be overlooked,
but when men can be seen with their
gangs and sulky plows summer fall
lowing land, there is no excuse for
such work and it should be deprecated
and talked against upon favorable
occasions. The assertion may be
vent ured that men who make a prac-
tice of putting in Sunday" will not
prosper like those who observe the
Sabbath day and attend to the rites
that are in keeping with the sanctity
of the day. 1t is bad example to

The people over Bear River, west of
Collinston appreciate what the sugar
factory is going to do for them. These
people are paying extremely high taxes
for water, SO that raising wheat as a
product cannot be considered in that
locality. Many of the settlers in
Fielding, Garland and other places i'm
that valley came from the more thick
" settled places such as Farmington
Kaysville, Centerville and Woods
Cross, and having been brought up as
practical gardeners, are well adapted
to 90 in for beet culture. Notwith-
standing the fact that these people
pay in the neighborhood of $50 per
acre for the rental of water, they will
raise beets and get rich. The condi-
tions that surround Cache Valley
farmers by way of cheap water, etc,
are far more favorable than those
that surround any class of people
where factories are established, and
we again emphasize the fact that
beet culture is the proper industry for
our people, especially those with large
families.

cows, register an objection to the
exactions of the city stockman. They
feel that of mornings and evenings,
while the cows are being driven to

be given. Aged people can not move
as lively as younger persons and this
boon should be granted them. No
stock should be allowed TO roam on
