last evening. 1t was genuine. From
the men who marched in the parade to
the citizen who stood on the street cor
aer and cheered, all meant it.
While not every club in the city had
burned out to greet the county candi-
dates, those that did made up for every
thing by the hearty cheers they gave
and by the precision Of their drill move
snents.
AT the head Of the procession rode
Grand Marshal Harry Rogers, assisted
by his Chief of Staff, William A. Sayre,
and following their lead came the boys
of the Capital City Drum Corps, who
beat as if the election of the entire
ticket depended upon their efforts.

ans of the Army and Navy Republican
League, and nobly did they lead the
Ane. Behind them came the Mckinley
and Johnson Club of Perkins, with their
bright uniforms and Chinese lanterns

F'lorin, who were loaded down with Ro-
man candles and cheers for the Repub-
1ican candidates with which they pune
auated the march.
Then came the Foresters' Band.

music, and next in line came the United

everything in sight, and whose fish
horns sounded like trumps of doom to
Democrats and POpu1ists
Then came the Capitol Mckinley
Club, and the boys were strictly out for
dhe candidates, one and all. Next fol-
lowed the fife and drum corps, and then
came the Johnson Club, No. /, in two

throughout his discussion. He saw no
