NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Tom McNeal, of Topeka, recognized
for many years as one of the leaders
in the Republican party in this state, to-
day makes formal announcement of his
candidacy for his party nomination for
congress in this, the First district, and
briefly outlines his stand on the more
important of the national issues.
The announcement is straight to the
point and characteristic of its author.
Mr.. McNeaI has been known to fame
in the west as a brilliant and witty af-
ter dinner speaker, but among his
friends and intimates his common sense
and ability are known and recognized
as assets that balance his wit and
these have given him prestige in party
councils as well as popularity as a

that whole education is highly valu-

while has less honor than it deserves.
