Senator R. J. Barr, Joliet, President Pro Ten) of fknate:---"Duriag my 22 years in the Senate we, have had some able men as Lieut. Governor, but with no word 1llbtdisrparagetnent, to them. 4ieut. Gov. Sterling has . made the best and fairest presiding officer in my Senate experience. 'I_I_e suits go fine my! l am" for hing." * J .' V r Senator Clarence F. Buck, aronmoutho.-,-s"I wish to far that you presided over the Senate with fairness and t-bipartilits, and in every other respect in a manner which would admit of no criticism: I believe that this will be concurred in by every member tf the Segue." The Chicago Tribune, beixig "father of the thought," keeps trying to make some folks believe that Governor Small will withdraw from 'the governorship contest. Why? With the battle already won by a sweepipg ma- jority, Wouldn't he be a boob to do so-atom, he decided he didn't WANT IO BE governor my longer? But, he DOES! And so the "ort of the Trib to father the idea that he's THINKING of withdrawing is merely a one of their WISHING that he would. Oh. how they. PO wish it. Candidate Easington and.the Tribune are trying to make capital out of the Potz case in Lake Country-by mitsstating" the facts and intimating that Governor Small PARDONED Potz whereas the governor COMMITTED ms SENTENCE, giving him life imprisonment instead of hanging. AND YET, we'll wager that every one of the governor's persecutors, had they been asked to DO so, wouldhave signed a petition to the governor last year begging him NOT to allow Potz "to be HUNG in Lake County; yet now those very folks in many cases condone the effort to apply the Potz case AGAINST the govern- or who showed he. had a head and wouldn't allow the life to be taken when he was sojourning in-Lake. County. Why, some of those birds would openly. approve theutrd if one ot THEIR crowd stepped out and KILLED a citi: Q2331; 1i."iifiiTiii, 1GiiiiGi" Manse this killer happened to be of THEIR crowd. ' . No matter who comes out for Lieutenant Governor of Illinois, the' chances tire Fred E. Sterling of Rockford Till be renominated and re-elected. La e County imand always! has beetritrong for Mr. Stcrli ,'fa popdlar and efficient official and it would take, a teal. campaign for any pan to cot in oghis sstyrIyrthsy.uel1 in this county.) Libertwille Ingepengqt As presiding officer of the Illinois senate he made friends in all factions because of his fairness_and impar- tiality in handling we tasks incumbent upon him. His biggest asset is the expression of appreciation of his work as presiding officer that comes from men 'who toil- ed with him during the sessions Then he wielded the gavel- Some of them, as shown in letters to Mr. Ster- ling, follow: - - . _ . ' m '- Senator H. G. WrighteDeKalbr--"You were alwari just and impartial in all of your rulings" and I just want to let you know that I am with you for re-pomination and election to the end of the road." "i " ' Senator A. C. Clark; Chicago y--", certamly hope that-you will be renominated foie Lieut. Governoi', for "you are, my idea of a Presiding Officer. tair and impartial, with a natural pose of dignity. That more could rest? Senator R. E. Duvall, Belleville:--" am glad to note that you have made up Four mind to become a candidate again and in my humble and feeble way I shall do all I can for you to secure renomination amreleetion. " I am confident that you will be re-nominated." The Chicago Tribune today made a big ado over the fact that Attorney Warren Schroeder had been paid $10,000 by the state for services rendered the governor and goes on to make a fuss on the "heortthat the attor- ney was paid by the state for assisting in the Small tritl in Waukegatfanil the intimation further is that it was wrong to do so. - - " . . " In the first place we feel that the governor; in face of the scurrilous persecution of Atty. General Brundage was entitled to have ALL his counsel ee for just as much as Brundage was entitled to pay t e sixteen attor- neys out of state funds whom he used to gramme the governor in'the trial; but, the governor D NOT him counsel on STATE 1fUNDfi1--he gold for it himself and at one time made a remark to t e writer that if they kept putting him to the legal expense of $500 a day for counsel, he would leave the governor's chair ftnaneittlly neys out of state mild: ple, he used l'gg"gt'hth,t,t', J,teitift,'t,'tht'g't, mam governor in"t 0 tria ; ut, t e governor . .

Mr. Biech caned' attention to the tact that the Public Service cm panr'tt coetAtrttetiott program for the year 1923 taken in its entirety was materially in excess ot that (or any of the several preceding years, this having been mule necessary by the great increaao in the company's bui- nes throughout its entire territory due to the rapid growth in this set- tion.
