"John Steen, candidate for state
treasurer, will be accorded the same
support by myself and the Republican
state central committee, that is ex-
tended to all other candidates of the
Republican party. Personally, l shall

trail committee Of the Republican
party, in an interview today.
The question had been raised from
time to time because of the fact that
Mr.. Steen is the only Republican state
candidate not backed by the Nom

a representative enrolment for a city
the size of Fargo, and a strenuous eff
fort will be made to increase 1t.

of the Idaho Montana Amalgamated
Mining company, was in town on
business the fore part of the week.
Mr.. Lancaster states that eastern
capitalists are negotiating for the
purchase of the controlling interest
on the Idaho Montana Amalgamated
company and that if the deal goes
through work on the Idamont mine
will be resumed at once with full

the property are expected to arrive
here within the next few weeks.
