t . 13 THE 3rOKXI'G OKEfiONIAy. WEDNESDAY,' MARCH 29, 1911. - ? K LANE WILL MAKE EARLY DECISION Course as to Candidacy for Mayor to Be Announced Later in Week. FRIENDS DO NOT PREDICT Belief PreralU rtiyslclan Will Sot Ron If He Is Continent of Probable Sncceo of Rush light la Primaries). Pressed for a definite announce ment to the probability of bis ba coming a candidate for Mayor. Dr. Harry Lane yesterday said ho sxpect ed to reach a decision before tha end of tha rk. Further than to make this admlselon. which la the only con cession the Sphlna-llke ex-Mayor has aiade durisir the campaign, ha refused to be questioned. Whether Un will ret Into tha race la more than even his closest friends will predli-t. In political- matters he always has been a conundrum to his noil Intimate associates, and he has a habit of doing- Just about what ha decides to do snd then only when he gets rood and rady. That la the rea son nobody will witer hla reputa tion as a pmKnostlcator In attempting to f- tell Lane s course. Rlvab' Chinee Considered. Despite the fart that It has been re pudiated by both Lane and Rushlight, tie Impression still prevails that an understands exists between them by whirs neither will oppos- the other In the pending contest. For this rea son. It Is suspected that Lane will not Wome a candidate so. long as he be lieves ISushlight can win In the J.e pubilran primaries. In these rlrcum stunrrs. er.tran e of Lane Into the fight fnr the lemocratic nomini- r.nrnftlttOn tO UfWIB . In would be aorept.a iy many " ,, " vt-t..n on Lanes part that Bushllcht will not be able to carry off the Rs rubliran nomination. H-r three same voters Lane Is not eiperted to come out for the Demo cratic nomination. They b-lteve he will prefer to await the result of the Republican primaries. If Ku.hllsht shouid win. then Lane Is not exported to enter the contest. Should rlthrr Werleln or Lombard be nomlr.at-1. friends close to Lane are l.(t 1 he would become a candidate. I.ano Is to feel that his service of f..ur years Is all that ehoutd be asked of him In the Mayor s chair, and ho Is averse to looking for further trouble, although his friends are most paralal rnt in demanding that ha consent to run. " flashlight Announces Platform. Councilman Ktsh!l-ht yesterday made a formal announcement of hla candi dacy, and at the aame time issued a platform on which he will ask nom ination and election aa tha Republican randldate. Mr. Kushllht pledges hlro a'lf to an economical administration. ar.J, promises to effect a reduction In the constantly Increasing; burden of taxes In municipal affalra. He opposes street vacal'ona, except when the city U duly compensated: favors a municipal raving plant: declares that tha City Engineer e office should ba conducted f.r tha benefit of thoea on whom tha burden of Improvement fall, and not for the paring combines, and promises i compel corporate Interest to con tribute mora largely toward meeting tns) expense of municipal administration. LOMBARD ACCCSES -OOMBTXE- Only lire? Comncllrorn Serve People, Candida to Declares. Sparlrr neither his Republican op ponent for the nomination for Mayor, jar eeveral members of the Council who are serking re-election. Cay Lombard rreated quite a allr yesterday when ha Issued a statement charging that a ma jority of the present Council forms a -cloee corporation" through which "spe cial latere?" are served frVst and tha general public last. Tha Republican Mayoralty candidate made tha further a.lrgattoa taut the Council "la eatorat ed with the vice of epectal permits." Mr. Lomtard declared that of tha IS member of tha Council, only ftva are not affiliated with the combination which he asserts Is serving the inter ests. Other than himself, tha members of that quintet, according to his statement, ara Cellars, Ellis. Menetee and Wallace. Among those members of the alleged "combination" charged by Lombard. Is Kuehttght. candidate f r Mayor, and the following Council men who are seeking another term: Hak.r. Burgard. a-rlscoU, Concannon, Leldlr.g and Kubll. bereral of Mr. Lombard's accusations are more t!-an mildly sensational. Ap pended are some of the mora striking sentences taken from his announcement, which was made In explaining why he resigned from the Council at this time; so tuat the voters, and not the Council, will elect his successor In June: "The majority of the Councltmen frrm a close corporation and, desiring to continue the policy, would appoint a man friendly to their Interests. The preeent Council does not represent tha c:tv. They ara not of broad under standing and never look at anything but their own selfish Interests first, and the dutlea for which they were c,e.'til ccrue last. "Th-se men serve themselves rather than their constituents. "1 do not be. leva there will ba gey relief from the etreet-pavlng monopoly aa long as the present Council la In ex istence. The Council la saturated with the vie of special permits, which ts class legislation, and tha curse of tha city. It requires no great effort for some people to go to tie Council and obtain special privileges In tha way of permits. U hen 1 t-.trod iced tha ordinance to prevent rol.er-skatlng on downtown etreete I did so to protect children from being Injured or killed, yet through gross Ignorance, or soma other reason. Councilman Dnscoll objected. Drlscoll Is running for re-election, and I do not approve cf his candidacy. Certain men la the Council have taken tha vicious side of every question la the Council. The Council should ba composed of men free from coercion and alliances, fair and equitable and Inspired with a de sire for t.ie public good, all of which le present Council Is not."
