! ON HOME GROUND
f friends Say Illinois Governor
: Believes That No Candidate
P Should Oppose "Fa
i vorite Son."
StateSenator Clarence F. Kuck cf
Monmouth, III., while in Omaha
yesterday in t lie wterests of the
"Lowden-for - President" campaign,
stated that Governor Lowdcn has
: not been an ardent seeker after
I further political honors.
: "ii is personal choice," the sena
; tor "vvonld he to return to his
on r.ctc River, from which
the people ot Illinois took him to
1 serve them as governor. o rov
crnor, hy sheer force of his ability
as an executive, has ever won the
, co'mmendation of all the people., of
the state as has Governor Lowdcn "
Not to Fight Pershing.
Governor Lowdcn had planned to
f.lc in Nebraska as a candidate, but
has taken the star.d that he would
not file in any tate where they have
a favorite sou as in the case of Gen
eral Pershing in Nebraska. Some of
Governor Lowden's frienils say that
while he will not make any such
statement, fhey feel he believes this
should he the policy cf all candidates
of either party.
''The industrial portions of Illinois
were storm cepters dtirinrj the recent
labor disnuU's," continued the sen
ator. "With more tli,an 100,0(10 men
on strike, the situation was handled
by Governor Lowdcn without the
aid of federal troops and without
any serious disturbances or loss of
life. The federal government's final
adjustment of thv- coal strike was
made in line with his published sug
gestions. Son of Blacksmith.
"Governor Lowdcn has ably
demonstrated bis determination and
his ability to maintain law and
order and to protect life and prop
erty by the application of strong (but
sane methods. He is likewise a busi
ness man who applies business
methods to governmental affairs.
"The history of Governor Low
den's life appeals to the heart and
intellect of all classes of people. He
was born on a Minnesota farm, tut
son of a village blacksmith,, and
one-time plowboy who worked his
way through school and coltege and
has become a 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 be already has carried it out to
the letter and the people of bis
state acknowledge his honesty and
patriotism, his fearlessness and his
magnificent capacities for service."
