OdelYs Plans Gire Politicians Food
for Thought.

Governor OdeITs plans for reorganiza ton OF
the Republican party in this city and state as
outlined in The Tribune yesterday gave inc
politicians a great deal to talk ABOUT muse
who are acquainted with the Governor ana MS
xigorous method OF dealing with political situa-
tions realize that there will be great deal or
activity from this time on in the organization
When the Governor was chairman OF the he
nublican State Committee the Republican or
ganization in the State maintained at a
high point of efficiency. Since his first election
as Governor he has to a certain extent stepped
out of the position of organization manager
AS a result a condition grew up whereby mis-
understandings between the Governor and Sena-
tor Plat could be easily fomented by designing
persons This brought about the tension which
existed a short time ago. but which was en-
tirely relieved by the conference at the White
House last Tuesday night Governor Odell and
Senator Platt came to a direct understanding
President Roosevelt heartily acquiesced in the
arrangement whereby Governor Odell steps back
into control of the party machinery He will
have free swing in handling the campaign in
the State next year for both the State and
national tickets.
Senator Platt remains the leader Of the organ
ization, but Governor Odell, younger and more
vigorous man. and one equipped in every way
for the hard task ahead of him. will take active
hold and direct the energies of the party. He
VIII advise from time to time with Mr.. Platt and
all leaders. and try TO bring the organization
into perfect trim to win the fight next year. All
MISUNDERSTANDING and disagreements have been
wiped out, and the Senator. the Governor ana
the other leaders are in hearty accord with the
President There will be no dissenting voice in
New-York as to the denomination of President
Roosevelt and all efforts Will he directed toward
re-electing him. The question of the Governor
ship next year and other details of the state
campaign will come up in due time At present
everything will be done to make the Organiza-
ton more efficient
