Thursday have been noted with sat

The Canadian government. backed

put the agreement through as soon as
the conservative opposition permits a
vote. Ratification then by the senate

There has been a decided modera-
ton, IN the last few weeks. ot the
fierce opposition at FIRST waged

BANK GUARANTY
LAW in SIGHT
one TO Be INTRODUCED DURING THE
PRESENT SESSlON-lNTRODUCED
BY MEMBER FROM WEST

Bismarck, N. d., Jan. 9.-It is
understood upon reliable authority
that among the new bills to be in
troduced soon after the recess will
be one proposing the bank guar
anty law. Whether or not the
measure meets with popularity
with either house remains yet to
be seen, though it is rumored that
the bill will be introduced in the
house by member from the west
ern part of the state.
The fact that the United States
supreme court recently declared
such laws constitutional will per-
haps give the bill considerable fol-
lowing. The republican platform
two years ago declared for the
bank guaranty.

GREAT LIST OF CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE.
COMFORTS OF AMERICAN HOMES
IS SURPRISING

The contributions which people
of other parts of the world are.
making to the comforts and re-
quirements of homes in the Unit
ed States will impress q great
many people. Our tea, our coffee,
our corks, our bananas, our cam
phor, our licorice, our pepper.
nutmegs and other spices, our
silk, some of our cotton, a consid-
cradle part of our wool and
strange as it may appear, some
part of the onions, potatoes and
cheese consumed in the United
States are brought from other
countries and in many cases from
the opposite side of the globe and
out of the way parts of the world.
Few people would suppose, for
example that this great agricul-
tural country imports onions, or
potatoes, or clover seed, or honey;
yet the value of onions imported
in 1907 and 1908 was nearly q
million dollars in each year, and
they came from Egypt, Australia,
Japan, the Canary Islands, Uru-
quay, Cuba, the British West In
dies, Bermuda, Canada, Mexico,
and Spain. OF potatoes more
than 81 million dollars worth
we're imported in 1909, the largest
contributing country being Scot
land with over one million dollars
worth, Ireland and Great Britain,
each three-quarters of a million
dollars worth, and the remainder
largely from European countries
and in smaller quantities, from
the British West Indies, Australia
and even China and Japan. Pep
per, of course is not produced in
the United States and it is not.
surprising therefore, that 2 mill
ion dollars worth is imported an
nually, much of it from the Dutch

NOT AS JUDGE SATURDAY-NEW JUDGE IS
WELL KNOWN THROUGHOUT DISTRICT

Hon. X. E. Leighton of Minot
was appointed Judge of the
eighth judicial district Saturday
by Governor Burke. The ap-
pointment was made necessary by
the election of Judge Goss to the
supreme bench.
Mr.. Leighton is an old resident
of this section of the state and has
made his home in Minot for the
past ten years. For time he had
an Office in this city and was en-
gagged in the law and land busi-
ness. He IS therefore we'll known
here and his appointment as Judge
meets with general approval in
this county. In speaking of his
appointment the Minot Optic says:
Judge Leighton graduated
