that whole communities are stirred. This is especially true of this choir's return trip east, just commencing. This remarkable organization filled its last westward date in Milwaukee in a two-night engagement and in Chicago two nights, making the same deep impression of excellence upon large crowds. Now they are returning to New York and at all points filling return dates, which fact is a substantial endorsement of their work. On Tuesday, Feb. 8, Richmond is to have the pleasure of another evening of such music as it has seldom enjoyed. It will be an evening of music for the people rather than a classical program for the few, yet a glance at the numbers to be sung will reveal some excellent music. The feeling or sense of astonishment and pleasure will not be discovered unt'I these people begin to sing. They are not "society folk" only Welsh singers who render the music of the nations with such rare beauty and perfection, as to make a delightful and lasting impression upon the eager listeners. In the program to be sung at the coliseum, the choir will be heard at its best. Indeed the Llanelly Welsh choir is so big an attraction, that it should be taken to the biggest hall in the city. Reserved seats for this affair are now on sale at the Starr Piano rooms and many seats have already been engaged. The program as announced Monday will be presented at this time. fc8 HAVE RETURNED.

Lee Was Elected Rep. Chairman Prominent Lawrenceburg Man Will Head the Party Organization Beveridge Makes a Rip Rousing Speech.

(Palladium Special) lndianupolis. Feb. 4. E. M. Lee who was elected chairman of the republican state committee atTlie Clay- . pool hotel yesterday afternoon has lived in Lawrenceburg, Ind.. for twentysix years. He is married and has jone daughter twenty years old. He ' was elected mayor of Lawrencebury j in 1S95 and served for two years. At ' different times he has served as a member of the school board and ofj the city council. At present he is a ; special revenue collector, j The meeting of the state committee j was harmonious in every respect and Mr. Ixv was elected without opposition. Henry V. Bennett of the seventh district was elected vice chairman without opposition ami John Hayes private secretary to Senator Beveridge was elected secretary and Frank D. Stalnaker of Indianapolis was re-elected treasurer. All of these men made short speeches thanking the committee for the honor and declaring that they were in favor of the fullest harmony and cooperation. Thad Peck of the fifth district was temporary chairman of the meeting and Will Hayes of the second district was the temporary secretary. The meeting was called to order by Fred A. Sims who was the acting chairman of the republican state committee. The name of Mr. J.ee was presented by F. J. Stults, Mr. Bennett's name was presented by Edgar Durre of the first district and Mr. Hayes's name was presented by D. D. Bates of the thirteenth district. A committee 1 consisting of the committeemen from the sixth, seventh and eleventh districts was appointed to look over the rules and recommend any desired changes at the next meeting which will be held on the call of the chairman. Chairman Lee said that another meeting probably would be held toward the latter part of the month. After the business of the committee had been finished Senator Beveridge was called and he made a rousing speech in which he declared that the paramount aim of the party should be to work for the welfare of the people and he suggested that the district chairmen in the different dis tricts keep in close touch with the ! people of the districts so that it would appear that the people themselves are running the campaign. He predicted a republican ietory by a majority which will be notable throughout tne nation. Senator Beveridge congratulated the committeemen for having been selected in a series of district conventions the harmony of which was unprecedented he believed, in the history of this or any other state. "This enthusiasm," he said, "bodes well for us in November. 1 congratulate you on having a state chairman of vigor and a man who inspires the confidence of men. I believe that he can do work which will be equal to the splendid work done by our retiring state chairman. "I am profoundly Impressed with the 9

the present situation. You are fighting four battles. If you lose this time, the party would be at least tremendously handicapped for the next four campaigns." Senator Beveridge then explained that the state is to be redistricted for legislative purposes and that with the democrats in power and with the rresent management of the democratic party this would mean that a republican senator ould not be seen in Washington for the next ten ears. He mentioned also that the state would be redlstricted for congressional purposes and that it could be redlstricted so that republican congressmen would be scarce. "Our success." he said, "means more than the success of the party. It means the welfare of the country and the people. I was born into the republican party when my father and brothers were fighting for the principles it stood for. But I love the party for what it means. "Every man here has big responsibilities and the load we have to carry io too big for us to consider for one moment past personal differences or factional troubles. There Is no reason indeed why there should be factions when a free people are thinking out their welfare. I want to have a close personal relation with this committee, and I want you all to have a close personal relation with each other. But 1 iK-lieve that in the technical work of the districts and every man here knows more about that than I ever will know, the district chairman should get close to the people. This campaign has got to stand for righteous principles of government. Let the committee be welded together by battle into a brotherhood.
