The statement follows: i Townley’s hired character assassins have widely circulated the charge that William Langer’s administration of the attorney general's office has been extravagant. As his assistants, with a full knowledge of the accom- plishments of his administration, we challenge this ertion and brand it as an unqualified falsehood, The appropriation for this biennial period of 19191920 was passed with the approval of all factions of the legislature and with a full knowledge of all the difficulties which confront- ed the attorney general’s oflice—it was approved by Townley and Lemke, and the rubber stamps, both in the ‘legislature and executive offices, as well as the anti-Townley faction in both houses. We submit herewith some of the labors of the attorney general since January 1, 1917, and assert without any fear of contradiction that had the litigation and public matters be- low enumerated been handled by pri- vate law concerns the cost would have been five times as great. The fight to prevent increased freight rates was financed almost al- together by the attorney general's of- fice. Attorney General Langer him- self supervised the fight personally for more than a fort-night at Wash- ington, D. C. The fight for federal grain grades also largely financed by the attorney general's office, including the hear- ings in Washington, D. C., and’a con- ference called of the northwestern states at Helena, Montana. The Court Record.

Assistant Secretary of State Duffey said loday that the names of all can- didates who had regularly filed peti- tions had been certified to county aud- itors and his office could take no fur- ther action in the matter. It is now up to the county audi- tors, he said, although he doubted their authority to remove White's name at this time. Because many friends of Mr. White may vole for him, even thous! he has withdrawn, if his naine is on the ballot, wide publicity will be giv- en throughout the state and the fact of his withdrawal. Lemke and Gronna His withdrawal leaves A, J. Gronna, United States senator, pitted against %. I. Ladd, ‘Nonpartisan league can- didate. William Lemke, ‘Bishop’ of the league, made an interesting admis- sion at yesterday's “ratification meet- g” here with friends of Gronna zed upon. Lemke said that he had approached | Gronna in {Washington some weeks igo with regard to endorsement of him by the ‘Nonpartisan league. Lem- ke, one of the three directors of the league who can perpetuate them- selves forever by having also the authority to select ‘succ 's, took the role of deciding whether Gron- na should receive the endorsement of the league. His Word Law The “Bishop” told» the audience that he asked Gronna what he would do for the Townley ticket. Apparent- ly he did not receive a satisfactory reply, for he indicated in his speech that he, the “Bishop”, immediately decided that Mr. Gronna would not be nominated by the league conven- tion at Fargo. And the convention did what Mr. Lemke indicates he de- cided it would do--name H. F. Ladd. Gronna is fighting Townleyism in all of his speeches, asserting that he would not stand with the socialistic leaders who are in control of the organization. Senator Gronna was endorsed by the anti-Townley state committee at Fargo after Col. White had withdrawn from the race. BLAINE’S BODY TO BE MOVED Washington, D.
