AMERICAN FLAG DAY.
PROGRAM OF TOMORROW'S REPUB.
LICAN RALLY.
An Enthusiastic Day Assured--Aeet'
ings Addressed by Senator
Plumb, L. e. Humph-
rey. A. ]. Felt.


The Republican county central commit
mittee were busy yesterday p-rfecting
arrangements for tomorrow'S great par
ade and Republican demonstration. They
were encouraged on every hand by Re
publicans, and found willing and ener-
getic hands to do the work assigned.
More enthusiasm among the Republicans,
it was often remarked, was never SEEN
The little time for getting up such grand
affair called for unusual attention to the
work and it was given. The central COM
mittce were greatly encouraged with the
assurances of grand success and the
general feeling impaired increased energy
TO them.
One Of the general and leading
features it is desired to bring
out is thorough and tasty
decorations on the part of all who partici-
pate. It is hoped it will be a great Ameri-
can flag day and the stars and stripes will
be displayed by all 1t is hoped not only
those participating in the parade will take
care to give this feature special attention
but also those along the line of march or
anywhere in the city for that matter will
not forget to decorate that the city lnseif
may appear with the stars and stripes.
Arrangements have been completed for
ample and fitting decorations at the opera
house and there seems no doubt that the
day will be one long remembered by Sedg-
wick county Republicans.
The parade was the talk of the city yes
terday. Not only did the Republicans
give it special attention. but the
Democrats were around inquiring to find
out about what what was going to be
done. Some of them would venture to re-
mark that the Republicans would not be
able to make as good a showing as they
did some days ago, and this served the
purpose of causing the Republicans to
work little harder to avoid getting the
laugh tomorrow.
The central committee appointed as
marshal of the day Col. James r. Hallow-
ell; assistants, Gen. Murray Myres, John
Doran, Geo. E. Harris, ". A Smith, c
Z. Martin.
