The Interior of the Elm Park church has been re-decorated and greatly beautified.Judge Dunne's first action was to scan the returns to ascertain how many ownership supporters he has among the aldermen elect and to hold conferences with the council leader as to the makeup of the important committees in the aidermanlc body. As the returns show that the Republicans have a majority and that all the old wheel horses who have been supporting Mayor Harrison for a tentative grant to the companies have been returned to the council, a complete reorganization of the alderinanic body is necessary.
