Wray for Senate
Movement Makes
More Progress
Uncertainty Persists as to
Whether Norton Will Be
Democratic or Progress.
sive Candidate.
Rx a staff Corresponden

Lincoln, April S.-(Special.)-
Further definite steps were made to-
day in the plan to make Arthur G.
Wray a third party candidate for
United States senator instead of for
governor. as forccasted by The Bee
earlier in the week.
Uncertainty persisted, however, as
to whether J. N. Norton of Polk
county president of the Nebraska
Farm bureau, will succeed Wray as
the progressive candidate for COVER
nor, or will seek the democratic
nomination for that Office.
"Mr. Wray will be candidate for
the senate, and J. N. Norton will be
the third party candidate for COVER
nor" said ]. H. Edmisten, chairman
of the progressive party's central
committee.
Norton Refuses to Nlk.
Edmisten's statement was made
despite Wray's denial yesterday that
such a plan was contemplated.
Mr.. Norton declined to commit
himself when questioned over long
distance telephone.
81 will have statement Tuesday
or Wednesday," he said.
Meanwhile, c. H. Roper OF David
City, ardent Bryan democrat, con-
tinued to insist that Norton will be
a candidate for the democratic rather
than the progressive nomination for
governor.
Charles w. Bryan issued 1000
word statement in which he declared
that Wray's contemplated withdraw
al means the death of the third party.
He based this opinion upon the report
that, if Wray seeks the third party
senatorial nomination, he will. with
draw in favor of r. B. Howell in
case the latter should be the repub-
lican nominee for that office. Bryan
urged third party followers to join
the democrats and promised them
progressive leadership"
Bryan Is Undecided.
"Will you be a candidate for gov
crnOr! Mr.. Bryan was asked alter
the issuance of his statement.
II do not care to say at this time"
was his reply.
The tendency to tie up the third
party with one or the other of the
older parties is generally ascribed to
the activity of c. A. Sorenson, for
mer attorney of the nonpartisan
league, who has worked persisently
to that end since A. c. Townley,
president of the norpartisan league,
opposed an independent third party
movement in his speech here several
weeks ago. Sorenson visited Wray at
York during the week.
Roper, always consistent Bryan
supporter, is demanding that Charles
w. Bryan sink his own ambition III
be governor and support Norton.
