ED WEISS QUITS
BAKERY BUSINESS
WILL CONFINE ACTIVITIES TO
GROCERY, SHOE AND CLOTH
ING BUSINESS.

Ed. Weiss, who came to Plenty
wood as a baker, having sold the
bakery after having operated it for
over six years, to Martin Toftness,
has moved eout of the old bakery into
the building which he has occupied as
the Family sShoe Shoppe, adjoining
the bakery, where he will conduct the
grocery and also handle shoes and
Mems Clothing and Furnishings.
Along with the bakery, Mr. Weiss
sold the building which it occupied,
but he retained the grocery business.
Mr.. Weiss since disposing of the
bakery and making other business
changes has ventured- onto an all cash
policy, cutting out credit entirely. Mr.
Weiss says, that by eliminating the
cost of bookkeeping, collection and
bad accounts, that he can cut the
prices of his goods, thus giving the
cash customers the benefit of the
economy. He will also stop deliver
ing any order less than SO, but viii
deliver all orders of $500 and over.

not guilty with the privilege of with
drawing his plea and demurring to the

by Judge Leiper.

JACK FROST
NIPS MONTANA

Jack Frost got in his work in the
northwest af couple of days after
Christmas and has been breathing his
frosty breath over this section for
the past ten days, making all kinds of
weather records.
Helena reports the coldest weather
in twenty years when the thermomet-
er registered 80 below New Years
day. 1t was 40 at Billings, az at
Havre, and 46 at Clearmont, Wyom-
ing, dropping to as low as 80 at
Cheyenne and Casper.
The cold spell has been continuous
for ten days, during which time the
thermometer did not raise above. Is
degrees below. The weather now
shows signs of warming up.
The drop in temperature was felt
particularly keen, because of the long
soft above zero early winter. Christ
mas day was like day in April.
Since the cold spell set in it has been
bright and there has been little wind.
The cars for the most part have
stopped running for the duration of
the cold spell, but as there is no
snow to speak of, with the coming
warmer weather, the travel will be
resumed as usual.

JUDGE Conner WILL
RETIRE FROM BENCH
May Throw Hat Into Ring for the Democratic Nomination for
Associate Justice of the Supreme COurtStrong Support
From Western Part of State is Hinted.

1t is reported that Judge Conner in
talking with number of his closest
friends at Scobey Wednesday, made
the positive statement that he would
not under any circumstances be a
candidate for reelection as Judge of
the District Court of the Twentieth
Judicial District, but would retire
from the position Of Judge at the end
Of his term.
This announcement came as a. sur
prise to his friends who had rather
counted on his again contesting fer
the position. While it was said sew
eral months ago that Conner would
not again become a candidate, recent
feelers and activities Of friends have
rather contradicted the statement.
However, it is reported, that Judge
Conner has larger mbitions-that he
is considering seriously filing for the
democratic nomination for Associate
1 Justice of the Supreme Court.
Mr.. Conner is rather a nonpartisan
! in political make up, for he was ap-
pointed onto the bench as a democrat
by Governor Stewart, ran for the de-
mocratic nomination in 1920 but was
DEBATED by Arthur Stangeland, and
then accepted the republican nomina-
tion as patriotic duty to save civili-
zation from the reds and make the
state safe for the copper company,
and was elected by the majority piled
up for him by his Roosevelt county
friends, using approved Roosevelt
county methods. He, however, will
return now to the democratic party
: that party having returned to the
: fold Of the big interests of The stat,
which now control It Ia its smallest
activities, and become a candidate fol
Supreme Judge. 1t is said that Judg,
Conner has ccnfded to number o.
his friends that he has been assure,
of mighty influential support from thi
western part of the state.
