BIG STAFF
FOR STATE
PARADE

Everything Is being made 10 give way
10 the big parade, the plans for which
the Republican bureau OF marching clubs
has about completed for tonight, and as
a last concession the state central COM
mittee today decided to call off the rally
which was scheduled for Ashton tonight,
and where the candidate for lieutenant
governor and Judge sweetlsnd were to
speak.
The shamrock rally, which was TO have
been held tonight, was also put over
until Saturday with the same speakers.
Those who would have appeared at Ash
ton will be at Woonsocket on Monday
night and will speak at Harris hall.
Before the parade tonight Alderman
Freeman Will speak TO the members Of
the Aldrich battery In their armory and
also 20 the Sixth Ward Marching club.
which he will see in its armory on Broad
street near Congress avenue.
The honorary stan TO the chief mar
shall and the division marshals in very
large one now and is steadily growing
so that there will undoubtedly be over
a hundred aides on horseback tonight
when the parade starts. How many will
be mounted when the parade is finished
is an entirely different proposition.
Invitations have been sent out TO a
large number OF we'll known business men
and already a great many acceptances
have been received.

In connection with the big rally at In
fantry hall tomorrow afternoon. when
Secretary OF War Taft will be heard, the
state central committee has been tele-
graphing this morning TO ascertain what
time the former governor OF the Philip
pines Will arrive in this city, in order
TO prepare for his reception. There is
probably more interest In this gentleman
than IN almost any other speaker who
has been here this campaign. not even
excepting the vice presidential candidate,
and IL Is probable that Infantry hall is
not large enough 10 hold one-tenth OF
the people who will try 10 hear the Sec
retary.
