This fact is accounted for-the play is
pure and clean, the love interest Is in
tense, the william receives his just de-
serts. the plot is well defined, the Incl
dental music and songs are delicious,
the horse-hoeing scene is always inter-
esting and the scenic production is
meritorious. Mr.. DAILY has been Sc
lected by the experienced theatrical
manager. U. D. Newell, for the stellar
role and the reception accorded the
young actor every time he appears,
proves that the veteran manager was
not mistaken In the quality of the
artist to whom he entrusted the part of
the heroic village blacksmith. Mr.. Daily
sings himself into the hearts of the
auditors with one of the most remark
able voices ever heard upon the stage
when he sings Killarney and other
sweet ballads introduced. he arouses his
audiences to a state of enthusiasm
which has rarely been equalled. His
ready Irish wit. his merry twinkling
eyes, his graceful movements make him
the personification of the dashing Irish
hero Dan O'Hara. Miss Clara Dalton,
a clever and pretty actress, last seen
with the Jeffersons, will appear as Nora
Drew, the colleen who wins the love
of Dan O'Hara. This production will
be an event in our theatrical season.

e. z. Neil, the revenue collector from
the sixth district. was exceedingly &C
tive in promoting the candidacy of
Charles w. Miller. Neil was acting I'M
der instructions Of the Beveridge
crowd, who were Miller men, and OPP
posed to Watson. who is member of
the Fairbanks machine.
Neil was severely criticised for using
his office to promote the candidacy of
Miller and it is expected that now that
Watson has won out. an effort will be
made to get Neil out of office.
This appointment is made by Bever-
idge, but it is thought that the In
dianapolis crowd could make it inter
esting for Neil if they went out after
his scalp.
The appointment of local deputy
revenue collector, and in fact the col
lectors all over the district, are made
through Neil. and of course should
Neil be ousted they would lose their
jobs
This is of interest to Hammond peo-
pie for the reason that Frank Ham
mond, who was Miller man, will have
to stand or fall with Neil, under whose
instructions he acted.
1t is also significant in that it shows
the power of machine when it is one
perfected. Here is the formula:
Beveridge is opposed to the Fair
banks machine.
Beveridge orders Nell, his appointee
to work for Miller.
Neil orders Hammond, his appointee
| to work for Miller
Fairbanks machine wins.
Watson after Neirs head.
If Neil is lost, Hammond is lost.
