Thorkelson Files for
GuhernatOrial Race

The news that former Congressman
DR.. J.. Thorkleson had filed for the
office of Governor of the State of Mon
ana caused quite a bit of excitement
and much conjecture as to the effect on
the success or failure of some of the
other gubernatorial candidates,
For a while it was thought that Ford
would be the sole Republican in the pri-
maries but the action Of DR.. Thorkelson
rather tangled the plans. The outstand-
ing trait of DR.. Thorkelson is his fearless
expression of views and independence of
thought and action.
