SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25. 1916.
GOVERNOR LowoeN's PLANS.

Republican state administration
plans for the next four years
got under way Wednesday. They
started of with bang that presages
a constructive and progressive four
years In Illinois official life, say the
men who sat in at the Great Northern
hotel this afternoon to direct the
legislative end. Meantime plans
were being made in Chicago and In
Springfield for the inauguration Of
Col. Frank o. Lowden as governor.
Mrs. Lowden went TO Springfield to
confer with Mrs. Dunno at the execu.
tive mansion and Adjt..Gen. Dickson
came to Chicago and discussed In.
auguration details with Fred Il. Ster-
ling. chairman of the republican state
committee.
David T.. Shanahan was assured OF
reelection as speaker of the 5Oth
general assembly by the republican
majority of the house in resolution
drafted asking him to be a candidate
and pledging him support. II was
ready for presentation this afternoon
TO a majority of the republicans who
will control the house caucus to be
held in Springfield Jan. 2 and who
conferred in the Great Northern.
No one doubts the resolution will
be adopted This leaves the way open
for Mr.. Shanahan to go ahead with
the preliminaries of the house or
ganlzation, which will mean a saw
ing of a months time of the session
Responsible leaders in the general
assembly did not hesitate to indorse
the Lowden plans for economy and
efficiency in the consolidation OF
boards and commissions. The con
sensus among the men who will have
votes in the legislature was that the
state administration program be car
ried out. This was the sentiment
among democrats as well. Roger C.
Sullivan, who has number of politi
cal friends in the general. assembly
gave the economy plan boost from
a democratic angle.
III Col. Lowden offers constructive
propositions to the legislature the
democrats should cooperate and
should offer something in construct
i've way themselves" said Mr.. Sui
Ivan. "They will be helping their
party by so doing. Illinois is a great
state and the men in public life
should arise to the situation and
build to the future"
Edward ID. Shurtleff OF Marengo
who ranks next to Speaker Shanahan
in influence in the house, Endorsed
the Lowden plans.
Il am for whatever the governor,
elect wants that will help to make
Illinois a better managed state" said
Mr.. Shurtleff. The economy and
efficiency program is in our party
platform and it is only good politics
70 live up to it,"
