They were S. c. Ford, candidate
for Attorney General, C.T.Stewart,
for Secretary of State; and H. H.
Hart for State Treasurer.
The party was met by the band
at the Gladstone Hotel where sew
eral selections were rendered after
which they adjourned to the hall
where the speaking took place.
A fair crowd was present, but
nothing compared to when the

be a good speaker, but outside of
criticising the present national and
State administration, did not say
much.

!. D. Richards Candidate
F0f County Treasurer

The Banner wishes to call par
ticular attention to the splendid
candidate the democratic party
presents for the office of county
treasurer, in the person of L. D.
Richards of Lindsay.
Mr.. Richards is a well educated
man, of a kind and pleasing dis
position one who cannot help but
make friends wherever he goes.
Mr.. Richards at one time was en-
gagged in the mercantile business
at Farlin, Iowa of which he made
a success, but finally got the
western fever and came to Mon
tana in the spring of 1909, taking
up a homestead 8 miles west of
Lindsay where he and his family
are still residing. Ever since COM
ing to Montana he has been en-
gagged in farming, and of this he
has made success. He is now
considered one of the most prac-
tical and scientific farmers of that
vicinity. That his neigh b ors
think we'll of him may be judged
