UJSTESEN NAMED
ON STATE TICKET
Democrats Pick AskOv Man for
Railroad, Warehouse Commits
sion; Andrew Nelson, Duluth,
Chosen for Governor.

Viggo Justesen of ASkov has been
nominated by the state Democratic
party as candidate in the June
primaries for the railroad and ware
house commission, and his name will
go on the ballot together with a COM
plete slate of candidates, named last
Saturday at meeting in Minneapolis.
In addition to this latest honor,
Mr.. Justesen is a delegate to the
National Democratic convention to
be held this summer in Illusion,
Texas. He told the American he did
not know whether he would be a
candidate.
Besides Mr.. Justesen, the slate in

lieutenant governor; Ruth Haynes
Carpenter, Minneapolis, secretary of
state; William A. Just, Rapidan,
state treasurer; George Cahill, st.

The action of the Democrats in

rest all rumors of a possible fusion
with the Farmer-Laborites in sup
porting Floyd B. Olson of Mime
apolis, for governor.
A row, it is reported, has occurred
within the ranks of the Farmer-Labor
party, as a result of which, william
Watkins of Minneapolis has, filed for
United States senator, and Ernest
Lundeen, also of Minneapolis, for
governor, defying the party's endorse
ment of Senator Henrik Shipstead
for reelection, and Floyd Olson for
governor.
