STATE POLITICAL NEWS
By Vance Chapman
1sThe County Chairman ?

! From all accounts "A. c.. Townley
has given UP all hopes Of lifting c..
M. King from his JOB as standard
bearer, Of the Farmer-Labor forces
and will file: DIR. Henrick Shipstead
of Glenwood as an independent can
didate. Petition necessary to secure
him a place on the November ticket
will be put in circulation next week.
Shipstead is to have the aid Of the
National Farmer-Labor party of
which P. P. Christensen is the presi-
Dental candidate. Christensen's
reputation of King came at a con-
ferance between Shipstead and Chris
tensen held in Chicago last week.
What Townley thinks of C. M. King
and his refusal to abdicate in favor
of Shipsead has not yet appeared in
print, but some of the Townley lieu
tenants are not so reticent. King,
they say, filed with full under
standing as to his future course and
the league money was used to buy
him place on the ticket. King did
not file in person, but was repre-
sented by James Manahan and other
Leaguers, who called at the office of
Secretary of State Schmahl and ten
dered the list of Farmer-Labor; can
didates together with the necessary
filing fees. The idea was to forestall
a similar filing by unfriendly forces.
Mr.. King, it is said, does not feel
unfriendly to the League movement,
but he does not take kindly to the
dictation of Townley, hence his re-
fusaf to get out. He regards Town
ley as a. menance and would prefer
to see Larry Hodgson, the Democratic
candidate, the next governor, that is
If the voters do not see fit to- crown
him, King. What King really de-
sires is League endorsement of the
Hodgson candidacy. !;

mall boys on the dock as to it's
whereabouts, speed, etc.
