.LOWDEN NOT TO
FIGHT PERSH|NC
ON Home GROUND
Friends Say Illinois Governor
Believes That No Candidate
Should Oppose "Fa-
vorite Son."

State<Senator Clarence F. Buck CT
Monmouth, ILL.,. while in Omaha
yesterday in the interests of the
"Lowden-for President campaign,
stated that Governor Lowden has
/ not been an ardent seeker after
I further political honors.
Wis personal choice" the sena-
/ TOR .sc:d. would be to return to his
::----:;.;: :--;; on .,nck River, from which
the people OF Illinois took him to
serve them as governor. No gov
ernor, by sheer force of his ability
as an executive, has ever won the
coinmendation of all the people OF
the state as has Governor LoWden !"
Not to Fight Pershing.
Governor Lowden had planned to
file in Nebraska as a candidate, but
has taken the stand that he would
not file in any state where they have
a favorite son as i'll the case of Gen
eral Pershing in Nebraska. Some Of
Governor Lowden's friends say that
while he will not make any such
statement, shey feel he believes this
should be the policy CT all candidates
of either party.
The industrial portions OF Illinois
were storm centcrs during the recent
labor disoutcs," continued the sen
ator. with more than 100000 men
on strike, the situation was handled
by Governor Lowden without the
aid of federal troops and without
any serious disturbances or loss OF
life. The federal governments final
adjustment of the coal strike was
made in line with his published sug-
gestions.
Son of Blacksmith.
"Governor Lowden has ably
demonstrated his determination and
his ability to maintain law and
order and to protect life and prop
erty by the application of strong ibut
sane methods. He is likewise busi-
ness man who applies business
methods to governmental affairs.
THE history of Governor Low
denis life appeals to the heart and
intellect of all classes of people. He
was born on a Minnesota farm, tn.
son of village blacksmith. and
oue-time plowboy who worked his
way through school and college and
has become tribune of the people.
He is one Of the few men in public
life who have made good. on pre-
election pledges. He had what most
thought was an impossible program,
but he already has carried it out to
the letter and the people of his
state acknowledge his honesty and
patriotism. his fearlessness and his
magnificent capacities for service"
