Reorganization Of State Mill

Severe Beating

The dove Of political peace fluttered
its wings noisily In Bismarck Wednes-
Gay and Thursday.
Political palm branches also were
waved Justify as the forces Of Governor
William LANCER sought to repair dam
age done tc political fences at the
election last Friday.
What effect the maneuvering will
have remains to be seen, but the
methods by which 1t Is hoped to OBJ
tain success were being binted by the
grapevine telegraph Thursday.
First In order. 1t appears, Is q rever-
sal by Governor LANCER Of his stand
on the affairs Of the state mill and
elevator. After supporting o. l..
Spencer for months, despite . concen-
trated fire upon the present mill man
aser, LANCER was reported as being
ready to join In firing Spencer and
putting In his place someone more &C
ceptable to some Of the forces which
fave had the mill management under
lire.
The governor was reported willing
to 60 even 30 far as to let the new
mill manager Be one Of the men who
have been opposed to his political
maneuvers. How much Of this was
fact and how much mere talk could
not Immediately be determined, how
ever.
Bonsef Called Here
Among those called into conference
was Senator A. f.. Bonner, Jr., Of
Richland county, . strong supporter
Of the governor at the last legislative
sessiaA but cooler toward the admin
iseration lately.
BOWER Is said to have resented
IAugert stress OF the fact that he
supported the sales tax In the legisla-
lure. The fact was emphasized by the
governor IN speeches IN the eastern
part Of the state during the pre.elec-
lion campaign and some hint Of Bon
zer's displeasure may be seen in the
returns from Lidgerwood, Bonzer's
nome town, which went 10 to one
against the proposal.
Also. LANCER Is said to have prom
tsed Bonner two months ago that he
would cleanup" the mill situation
but has failed to keep his promise.
Just where Bonner enters the reor-
ganization picture Is not now appar-
ent. but he was asked to come here

Chief "fixer" In the new effort Is
