the needs of the county and the state
and his experience n influence will
be of great value to the people of
Fergus county and eastern Montana.
On all questions pertaining to the well
fare of laboring men his record will
be found unassailable. In George j.
| Wiedeman the convention named one

business men of Lewistown. His

long been identified with this region.
He was here before Fergus county
was named and has always been In

ardent and hard-working Republican

his you will know that he has some
thing with him.
For judge of the district court, the
greatest compliment that can be PAID

but a demurrer to the Indictment was
sustained by Judge Munger and the
case was dismissed. Dutton will be
represented before the department by r.

terms of the contract issued by Dutton
provide that no money is to be paid for
