Friends of the governor give vary- ing weights to the statement credit- ed tg Jack Pfeifer, former Slope county political leader but now of Vlaza, that the third party convention plans to pave the way for the over- throw of Sorlie and the downfall of Gerald P, Sorlie’s appointee as senator, at the Nonpartisan conven- tion in February. The plan, as out- , lined by Pfeifer to friends here, it is + reported, is to “shel: Sorlie and Nye and nominate William Lemke of Fargo, one of the original leaders of the Nonpartisan league, as the can- didate for senator. As viewed by I. V. A. leaders here the formation of a third party would seriously affect the problem of de- lineati the issues in the next cam~- paign. Sonatorship An Issue First of all, of course, the senator- ship will be an issue, Governor Sor- lie’s action in appointing Ger Nye together with all the surrounding the appointment will be put under fire, I. V. A. leaders s the govern’ issues represented by the state mill and elevator and the Bank of North Dakota will be on a new basis. As he sees the situation a third party would attempt to revive the original Non- partisan League program of state owned and operated industries. The Nonpartisan faction répresented by the governor would be placed in the middle ground with a platform of keeping the state-owned industries already organized but of going no further with the industrial pceeae: while the I. V. A.'s will probably be in the position of advocating with- rawal by the state from the present industrial enterprises as rapidly as possible. Governor Sorlie says the mill and elevator and the state bank will not be an issue;that the state as a whole, with the exception of small groups of individuals, has been sold on the proposition of their value and that the main and burning issue will be the senators!
