there are two senatorial positions to
fill. Senator McCumber's term expires
by Limitation and there is also a short
term vacancy as a result of the death
OF the late M. N. Johnson.
The side of Senator McCumber and
Judge Engerud will be presented by
Attornew Lawrence of Ball, Watson,
Young e. Lawrence of Fargo and that
of Messrs. Marshall and Gronna by
Judge Corliss of Grand Forks.
The suit is entirely friendly and
brought to clear up a weakness of the
primary law.
There is a wide conflict OF opinion
on the matter Some attorneys con-
tested that the two senatorial positions
the long and the short terms-are as
distinct as governor and lieutenant gov
ernor, and the candidates should des-
ignate that position which he seeks.
Others contend the matter should be
a free-for- all-with the high man be-
ing declared the choice for the long
term and the second highest the nom
inee for the short term.
