4-s.1HH.. .H--I-hf''r He s-J-EE9 .AEbF A Nsn5 tAMNEsf
last week is in connection with the
attitude of William LANCER, former
attorney general. The letter was adj,
dressed to C.. Macdonald. Hannah,
N. D., in answer to Mr.. Macdonald's
suggestion that LANCER would be the.
logical candidate for governor on the
Nonpartisan league ticket.
LANCER declares he will not be q
candidate, but continues:
"In this coming campaign l am Eo-
ing to be upon the stump, and hope
to be able to tall in your locality. I
am going to talk for the original
farmers program because after my
experience on the industrial comnis-
sion / am stronger for At than Yer
But my God, what could 1 do when
as the records show for example that
I did the best I could to nominate,
Murphy of Grand Forks to. head the
Bank of North Dakota with Frazier
and Hagan voting for a man like jim
Waters"
There are a lot Of suggestions. as to
possible league candidates floating
around. The correspondent of the
Courier-News cheerfully suggests q.
e. Lofthus for governor.
In the final anlysis however the
United States s~enatorship continues
to hold the center of interest as far
as the public is concerned. Perhaps
the most interesting development in
this connection during the week was
the nomination OF James F. SheA,
Senator p. J. McCumber's chief pO.
litical heller to be United States mar.
shall for North Dakota, and an .edi-
torial on the subject in the Fargo
Courier-News which was at least
semi-congratulatory to Mr.. Shea.
A.. c. Townley is apparently con-
tinuing his efforts to swing the league
vote to Mr.. McCumber while the
Courier-News and the Liederbach ell
ement speak vaguely of another
league candidate.
The independents attitude on the
senatorship is that it should not be
taken up until the question Of the
state ticket is disposed of.
