Bashaw,s Reply to a Pardon.

WHEELING, W. Va, April 1a.-Gov-
ernor Wilson has pardoned Enos
Bashaw of Summers county. who is
serving a sentence of four years in the
penitentiary for grand larceny. The
governor gave as a reason for the par

of intelligence to distinguish right from
wrong. Bashaw refuses to accept the
pardon under these conditions, and has
sent word to the governor that he has
more sense in a minute than the gov
ernor has shown in his whole term.

WASHINGTON, April f2. - Secretary
tary of war in response to an inquiry
made of him by the commanding gen
eral of the Division of Missouri, if
| settlers will be allowed to cross the
Cherokee Outlet, on the northern line of
Oklahoma, prior to April 22, so that they
will be on the border and in readiness
to enter when the proclamation goes
into effect. The secretary recommends
that they be allowed to do SO. He
thinks however, that the settlers, in
their journey across the Cherokee Out
let, should be confined to the public
highways, posts or military roads, or es-
tablished cattle trails in going toward
the tract of and to be opend for settle
ment; but there should be a military
| patrol upon the road or roads that shall
| prevent the settlers from staying longer
than necessary on the way, and require
Them to move on. There should be
every care taken to have the Indians
understand by this passage that there is
no disposition to appropriate their lands,
and that it win be continued NJ longer
than absolutely necessary"
The secretary further says that as
soon as the proclamation takes effect
the route now permitted to be taken
will be closed. This permit to cross the
the Outlet, he explains, is not to be
| taken as a permit to enter Oklahoma.
A cogent reason with Secretary Noble
for permitting settlers at this time to
cross the Outlet is to place the settlers
- - - Il
footing with settlers who are now on
| the border of Oklahoma territory. or in
the Cfickasaw Nation, and ready to
! cross the line the moment the clock
strikes IL on April %. All permits
under this order will be granted under
the authority of the military officer in
command.

PREFERS LOW BUILDINGS.
A Traveller Thinks Indianapolis People Have
the Right Idea as to Height Of Blocks.

There is one thing that / notice about
your CITY," remarked a travelling man to a
Journal reporter, yesterday afternoon,
(which, according to my way OF thinking,
is a most cOmmendable feature. / get over
a great deal of territory in my work, and,
of course, visit all the larger cities When
1 go to New York OF Chicago I always put
in from four to six weeks, and my greatest
objection to the work l have there is that l
am compelled to go to the tops of buildings
that are from eight to ten stories high. 1t
is not that / am afraid of any personal
danger. but there is absolutely no call for
building to such a height. 1t is a matter
of favorable comment in a great many
cities abroad that Indianapolis shows its
goods sense by not running her blocks up
Ill excess of six OF seven stories.
IF you will stop a moment and think
how the business portion of this city is laid
out you will see what l mean. With the
f%sfi eeRRsi all Of q e fs the Of b1 zHdHin highest sss
of an average height. You have plenty of
territory here in which to spread-Of
course L take that into consideration-but
territory isn't the only thing to consider.
A ten-story building can be erected only for
one of two reasons, -either as a business
convenience. OF a means of giving a metre
politan appearance to the city. Neither,
however, has even q Semblance OF sense
about it. Everyone who has either climbed
to the tenth story of a block or been carried
up on an elevator, knows by experience
that business convenience sinks into insig-
nificance by the side of physical wear and
tear and the consciousness of being up 200
feet in the air. Again, we have seen
several instances throughout the country
where these high buildings have collapsed,
and often with q loss of life. The only pos
sible. thing that can be said, perhaps,
is that towering business blocks give
q metropolitan air to a city. But
this. idea is fast becoming dispelled
in the East. Public opinion is rapidly de-
handing lower buildings and more of them.
Alphabetically Indianapolis is one of the
most beautiful cities in the country. Your
public buildings, your streets and you res
idence quarters cannot be surpassed any
where. And one of the most praisewOrthv
ideas of your citizens is that which induces
them to build their business houses on a
basis of more ground and less height.
There is one thing that is hardly in keep.
ing with this, though, which / notice. Ev-
cry now and then / see between the high
blocks small one OF twO-stOry structures
that are below par in appearance. These,
in all probability, are held by heirs to es-
tates whose titles are not yet cleared, but
in time they will be torn down and build
ings put in their places that are of equal
height with those surrounding them.
When that time comes Indianapolis will be
u~nequaled in the line of evenly-built bust
ness streets"

Avoid all receptions and shams in

pretends to be what it is not. Morris

which you do not know to be useful, or
believe to be beautiful" From what a

Carrying put of this simple rule would
relieve many of Us! Aim at nothing
which cannot be well carried out. In
other words, come right here, where
you have the certainty of knowing that
all will be well carried out, from the cor
rect beginning of artistic selection and
expert execution.

A MATTER OF H
Painters of the Parry Manufacturing Company
No Longer Paid on the Task Plan.
OF ALL SORTS AND SIZES.

1t was reported yesterday that on account
of a change of plan in paying wages the
Parry Manufacturing Company would have
trouble with the painters employed In its
establishment. From the 1st of April until
the first of last week the company had
been paying this class of employees ON the
task p~lan-that is, so much was given for
ten hours work and for O fixed amount of
labor done either within or in more than
that time. All work lone beyond the task
was paid for by the piece. As a result
some Of the men were able to earn from 80
to SIS weekly. In view of this fact the
since April 1, and on that basis arranged a
schedule of prices by the piece so that the
men can earn from $50 to- 81 a day. This
was the system in use in all other depart
ments of the factory at the time it was ap-
men seen by a reporter last night, stated
that, although many of the men
were complaining. they would, in
all probability. accept the change.
TO blame for the change, since they were
boasting too much about the high wages
they made. AS for himself, he would go
right on with his work without making
any trouble about it.
Mr.. Parry, the company's superintendent,
said that he did not care If somesof the
men did lay of. I'VE have too many he
continued. Ito be carried through the dull
season. and if some went off voluntarily it
would save me the trouble of discharging."
He further said that the change was
for the better. inasmuch asst gave the good
mechanics an advantage, aud would show
who were not so efficient. Mr.. Seward. a
foreman In the paint-shops, said that the
trouble came from a few malcontents such
as are found in the employ of all companies.
He had seen more than one-half the men,
and all expressed themselves satisfied with
the change. be anticipated no trouble
whatever. There would be to-day, he
thought, more men ready for work than
could possibly be used. James Smart. SUI
perIntendent of paint shops, believed the
change would be quietly accepted.
