Preparations for the triennial conclave of
knights Templar of the United States are
being ma lie in Boston. Observation stands
are appearing by the score along the line
of the great parade, and hundreds OF dec
orators are engaged in hanging bunting,
flags and emblems on buildings and resi-
dences, and the electrical display will out
do anything of the kind ever seen in New
England. The floral decorations in the
public gardens will be one of the features
of the city's decoration. Here two hand
some floral arches are being erected, and
hundred Masonic emblems in flowers and
plants are being arranged.
Tuesday, the day of the grand parade, In
which it Is estimated nearly 10000 knights
will participate, will be the great day of
believed that over 10000 visitors will be
in the city. Excursions from all parts of
New England will be run to Boston, and
banks, public offices and most of the large
business houses will close for the day.
Places of vantage along the line of
march are being let rapidly, the prices
ranging from 81 to $40. The committee ar
be one of the grandest pageants America
has ever seen. There will be over 500
horses In line; 100 bands will participate
and scores Of unique features are promised
by knights from different parts OF the
country.
There will be only a few business ses-
sions of the conclave, and the week will
sions and receptions almost without num-
Der have been arranged, and 1t Is estimated
that Boston will spend over half million
dollars in entertaining her guests.

congregation, for one of the members had

The Republican legislative caucus on
Wednesday night took some action to which
the Gazette cannot subscribe. First, the
caucus plan proposes to take the appointing
power out of the hands of the Governor of
the State and commit it to commission
consisting of the Governor. Secretary OF
State. the State Treasurer and Auditor.
We object to this because we believe the
responsibility for such appointments of
Tgnr b should rest upon the Joxernor; me ,
past, and it cannot afford to lightly turn its
back upon its own record The Senate VIII
have the right of confirmation and can thus
correct any abuse of authority or partisan
tendency that the chief executive may. ex-
hibit. Merely because the Governor hap
pens to be a Republican or Democrat is no
reason why the Republican legislators
should change their views OF the general
principle involved. AS honest men, Re-
publicans who declare for principle and
stand by our promises, we cannot afford
to take the action proposed by the caucus.
IF that action cannot be reversed, we hope
that when the question comes up in the
House and Senate it will be defeated.-Fort
Wayne Gazette.
There seems to be but one opinion among
the Republicans of Indiana of the action of
the Republican caucus favoring the placing
of the control of the public institutions in
the hands of a partisan board composed of
the Governor, Secretary, Auditor and
Treasurer of State, and that is distinctly
condemnatory. The party press, the orators
on the stump. the representatives in con-
vention have pronounced unequivocally
against partisan management of the be-
nevolent institutions. and the Democratic
party was unsparingly denounced for par
tsan management of the asylums and peni-
tentiaries in at least three Republican State
platforms. Now, the Republican party in
the Legislature faces about and StultifieS
every Republican who has labored for the
reform demanded by the party leaders,
who had pledged the party TO effect
radical change in the management of the
public institutions, if placed in power To
repudiate convention pledges, break faith

the party is extremely dangerous, convict
ing the Republicans. of Indiana of insin..
certify, perpetuating the evil complained of
under Democratic administration and put
ting the Republican press and speakers at
a serious disadvantage in the State cam
paign of 1896. Tt is not yet too late to re-
trace the step, to ignore the caucus decision
and allow the appointive power to remain
in the hands of the Governor, hedging it
about with such restrictions shall assure
the appointment of sensible and capable
men to positions in the State institutions.

THE DENISON IS ALL RIGHT.
Running Brfm Full of Guests,

The fire at the Denison last week Demon
strated the value Of the fire-proof construc-
ton of this elegant hotel and its absolute
safety in time of danger. With the weather
below Zero a very light water pressure and a
fire department laboring under disadvantages
this fire burned over three hours without
getting out of the narrow limits in which it
originated.
We desire to assure our friends and
patrons that the Denison is running with
out interruption, and that are prepared
to offer them the same high-class service
and accommodations that has made this
beautiful hotel famous with the travelling
public as well as the home of the more
prominent people OF our city and State.
Very respectfully, T. J. CULLEN,
Manager.
