from jesterdar' primary election
como In slowly. Ole Hanson, pro

inatlon for United States senator. On
the democratic sido none of the ftvo

oud. William W. niack third, but
Illack was quite generally the second
cholco and ut thin time seem likely
to get tho nomination. Senator Wes

In the first district Congressman
Wllllaiu 11. Humphrey, republican
was re-nominated, ex-Major William
