M'NEAL IN RACE.
Topeka Orator Candidate For
u. s. Senator.
His Boom Launched by the
Peabody Gazette.

Topeka has at least one fulI-nedged
candidate for United States senator.
The Peabody Gazette has launched
the boom and Mr.. McNeal's friends are
active and in earnest.
The Gazette says:
ssT. A. McNeaI, editor of the Mall and
Breeze, is a candidate for United States
senator.
This is authentic, and tie announce
nlent will please more people OF Kansas
than such an announcement would OF
any other man. No one could find an
objection to Mr.. McNeai being senator.
he is one of the brainisst men in the
west, and a most worthy gentleman IN
every respect he IS in the ingalls, and
Plumb class in intelligence. He would
be valuable representative OF the
Kansas people.
His record ia q good one There is
not a thing that he has done that needs
an apology. He has not been off on any
thing: he has always been right.
His private career has been spctless
There Ia nothing about 1t that would
need to be explained away.
/ Every Republican newspaper in
Kansas should rally to McNeaps candi-
dacy- It is time that Kansas papers
should quit whooptng II up for petty
politicians that have no other recon-
mendation than gall They now can help
one of their own fraternity. The people
of Kansas have not regretted having ell
ENAlSu newspaper lA4C14 70 GIIlGS-4uSdltS
and Plumb to the senate. and John A.
Martin and George T. Anthony to the
governors chair.
The Republicans of Kansas won a
sweeping victory at the polls which
brings to them a great responsibility.
The voters placed them in charge Of
state affairs. They (the peoplel win ex-
pect and demand good service. They
Will not stand a betrayal Of conhdence.
It will be a betrayal TO elect a United
States senator who is unworthy from a
moral or any other standpoint. They
will repudiate such conduct.
"One Of the things that will effect Re
pubicanism in Kansas for many years
TO come IS the election OF senator this
winter The election viii either strength
en- or weaken the party. Tom McNears
election would greatly strengthen it,and
after his election every Republican
would feel like hurrahing for making
such a wise choice. The opposition
would be impressed with the selection
OF the best man for the Office.
THE partisans Of Baker and Burton
would be glad of II and comment on how
well the contest ended. The election Of
Tom McNeal at this time would be the
best political stroke the Republican
party ever made in Kansas. We would
like to see the representatives and state
senators take up his candidacy and
work for him They can do so with the
assurance that they are working for the
abIest newspaper man in Kansas, one of
the best lawyers the best posted per
son IN the state on current events, a
thorough student of political economy,
and man who knows mere about the
desires and possibilities Of the state
than any other within her borders Work
for Tom McNeal for senator"

Frederick Neil Innes is not a Sousa.
that is what everyone said who heard
his band He Goes not pretend to be a
Sousa nor does ne try to initiate that
famous bandmaster in the instrumental
ton of his band nor in his programmes.
Innes' band can better be compared
with Godfreys English Guards band
than any other. The Instrumentation
is nearer alike than any other two or
CARNATIONS but lines band has twice
as many members and pleases the
audiences better. As 1nnes says his band
is the nearest TO q symphony orchestra
that a band can be. OF the 50 members
80 play reed instruments, four stringed
instruments, leaving Is for tympanis
and brass. The music of the band is
mellow and rich. of the dreamy sort,
and should not be compared with the
stirring strains and heavy effect of a
brass band 1nnes has a peculiar way
Of conducting. There is nothing in his
manner like Sousa that is called mag
netic" by the people. He waves his
baton in Hstless sort OF way and seats
himself at every opportunity. He half
turns his back to his musicians, waves
his baton once in while and gazes at
the gallery. rolling his eyes in & peculiar
manner and biting his lips He has an
odd way Of Struggling his shoulders
which reminds one OF a Frenchman.

to play sensational music such as two

not do. At our concerts people can sit

Mr.. Marshall knew Innes when he was

The house which greeted the band

served twice as large a house but Innes
