ong and made himself at home with
us. Our Canadian friends spied
him and introduced him as the Hon
orable A. c. Stewart who had lust
arrived from the capital at Regina
to partake of the festivities.
We found Mr.. Stewart a very am
liable gentleman, whose every inter
est in certered in seeing the citizens
Of Saskatchewan are given the best
roads that that commonwealth can
afford, and that such expenditures
be used in such manner that the
taxpayers received all the money
back in payment for labor. He has
the interest of Saskatchewan at
heart first, and its residents are next
in line. He is "hale fellow we'll
met and not one of these duper Dig
nified officials to whom anyone with
need kowtow. We also had the plea
sure of meeting and talking with the
other guests of honor. the Honorable
R. S. Leslie and H. x. Warren, who
are also mighty fine fellows, and
like the Hon. Mr. Stewart, real go
getters. In fact the entire commit
te seemed to be real live wires.
Covers Laid for 200
The banquet. hall had been decora-
ted with the flags of the two ma
tions, and the tables were laid for
nearly 200 guests, and every place
YVES occupied. A splendid dinner was
served after which addresses were
made by a number of those present,
including two guests from Montana.
The principal address was made by
Hon. A. c. Stewart who gave an
accounting Of Us stewardship as
Minister Of Highways in Saskatche-
wan, and we are surprised and as
founded to know how much work de-
velops upon his shoulders. In a ter
itov $50 miles east and west and 400
miles northward, the amount of
work which has been done towards
giving good roads to the travelling
public is almost inconceivable. Dur
in the past year over S7000.0O0 has
been spent on good roads in that
Province alone
Final Link Completed
The final link in highway No.
had just been completed so that it is
now good road from the boundary
line into Regina, but the Minister of
Highways told US that it would be
folly to stop the work on this road
at this time and promised us that it
would be graveled and put in first
class condition the entire distance as
fast as weather and finance permit
ted, and also told us that we could
carry word back to o. S. Worden,
Chairman of the Montana Highway
Commission that the road would be
fully completed before the little
stretch in Sheridan county. to meet
it, would be finished.
Short addresses were also made by
Hon. R. S. leslie. Hon. H. X. War
en- and many others.
Wheat Pool Representative Speaks
Representing the wheat pool Mr..
A. Kelly gave short talk on grain
farming and prices, stating that the
pool now owns 1857 elevators and
with over s1S,000,000 in assets. He
deplored the present price of grain,
mentioning wheat at 40 to As cents
per bushel, and said this could not
be blamed to any one country or ter
ritory, but that over production was
world wide, but did lay stress upon
the dumping of grain by Russia as
one deplorable factor which has led
to considerable reduction in prices.
Mr.. Kelly told about one farmer
that had brought in SS bushels of
rye to some nearby town there which
