Want OSBORN
TO RUN AGAIN
STATE CHAIRMAN KNOX FLOOD
ED WITH LETTERS FROM
ADMlRERs-scHooL
DISTRICT PLAN.

Grand Rapids, July 25.-'T believe
that there will be such n demand from
the people OF the state that Governor
Osborn Will be forced To run for a
second term" declared Republican
state Chairman Knox who was in
Grand Rapids making preliminary ar
rangements for meeting of the state
lcentral committee about October 10.
II cannot speak for the governor I'm
the matter" continued Mr.. Knox.
Every time l have spoken tn him on
the subject he has reiterated his de-
termination To retire after one term.
But l am being flooded with letters
from officials and party leaders and
they all insist that the governor must
lead the party again. / know he is
also receiving many such letters |
feel confident that the pressure will
be so strong that he will not refuse"
Under plans which were laid out
during the last campaign the time
between battles was to be spent by
the chairman of the committee in per-
fecting an organization which should
have the school district for its small
est unit. the steps upward being the
township, the county and then the
congressional district. Mr.. Knox will
report to the committee that this plan
has been successful and that card
index has been established which will
allow the campaign headquarters to
get into touch with every man Of
political importance In the state with
out difficulty.
The question Of doing away with the
confusion which now exists lin the
booking of speakers will also be taken
up and arrangements will be made for
booking national speakers over the
banquet circuit next winter and dur
ing the campaign of next year just as
theatrical stars are booked This will
result i'm a great saving Of expense and
allow the smaller towns to hear the
big men who now only go to the larger
cities.
Another matter to be taken up will
be the organization of Republican
club in every county i'm the state
which will hold at least an annual
banquet
The people must be provided with
something that will take the place of
the Old time convention" says Mr..
Knox. "and the banquet where the po-
litical workers can gather and listen
to party doctrine and principle seems
to be the solution of the problem"
