KENNEY NOT
A CANDIDATE
Former Senator Does Not
Aspire to Further Po-

STATEMENT BEARS NO QUESTIONING
speclal to The Evening Journal.

Special to The Evening Journal.
Lewes, Aug. S1.-Former Senator r.
r. Kenney when questioned recently
as to whether his ambition was again
for the senatorship. firmly and en-
phatically stated in the presence of
several that there was nothing either
in national or State offices that he de-
slider or would accept.
The statement caused some surprise
and comment, but the emphatic way it
was put would bear no questioning.
Ex- Recorder Of Deeds James Lord,
political opponent Of the Senator, was
present when the declaration was
made Mr.. Kenney and family have
returned to Dover. having closed their
cottage at Rehoboth.
There is a good bit of "git-together"
talk among the Republican factionai
leaders here. They seem to recognize
the fact that men must put their am
bitlons aside for the party success, re-
cognizing the fact that Democratic sue
cess at the coming election means DEM
ocratic control for some years TO come.
Common primaries are almost sure to
be held i'm Sussex county, at least the
drift is that way and comes from men
who dictate their party policies and
maneuvers.
Error Was Unintentional.
The Firemen's Band will give a
street concert this evening and incl
dentally serenade Dr. william p. Orr
and Charles H. Maull. who are on the
Republican State ticket, and thereby
atone for their short sightedness in
honoring Dr. Burton. the Union Re
publican Congressional candidate by a
visit and neglecting the others. Their
thoughtlessness caused much unfavor-
able comment and will cause the band
the probable loss OF support, yet It was
not "a wilful error on the part OF the
band.
