THE CONCLAVE AND ITS LESSON, To-day 13 practically the Instof the Mason- fe festlvat in this city celebrated by tho Knights Templar asa Triennial Conclave, ‘The day will be given over to Commandery reuntons, socal visits, and general rest from the exciting aud fatiguing events that have preceded it, “The “visiting cltizeny” will thus have au opportunity, which indeed has been taken by Inrgo numbors of them nl- ready, to transact business, do their “shop- ping,” and enjoy the parks and the ‘many other attractions and peculiar features of Chicago life, ‘The week has been characterized by con- siderable confusion and some dissatisfaction, Such an experience was probably Inevitable in a crowd of such gigantle proportions, But the grumblers are inainly those : who re- side In the city and have had thelr routine Hfe disturbed, The ‘Templars, who came here to partake In tho festivities, have generally been nstonished at the: Invish hospitallty shown to them and highly gratl- fled atthe magnitude and brillianey of the oc- cnsion, ‘These sentiments have been shared by the Magony ng a body, Others who have come to look on have generally hnd thelr money’s tvorth, and have also had other ob- jects fu view which compensated thom for coming, Some desired to visit frioucds, others to do “shopplng,” others. to enjoy cosmopolitan Ife for a fow days at oxeur- sion rates. <Allthese people have, as a rule, been satisfied with thelrentertalument. They have compared their present accommodation and treatment with similar oxperivnces else- where, and have found that they fara butter in Chicago than they ever did in any other elty during a large popular demonstration. Tho weather of the past two days has not been su oppressively ‘warm to visitors ns It has been to resident Chicagoans, for the peo-, ple from other sections arg accustomed to: genuine, continuous, baking hot weather, and they , regard. the’ warm wenther of Chicago us cool by comparison. If at any time thoy feel tho -heat sensibly, they Imnie- dintely console themselves with tho reilec- tlon thut they would be much more uncom- fortable if they wers at home. t ‘Tho most astounding fenture of the week's celebration, however, lg the linmenulty of the assembled multitude, Everybody who has come to Chiengo expected to find a crowd,: but not such necrowd as has actually euth- ered here. Add 200,000 peoplo suddenly ton elty of 500,000, and the effect $s oyerwheln- Ing. Tho untversal wonder Is how so many people can be assembled {1 so brief 2 time. It Is not tho Knights Templar’ Conclave that explains this. ‘The celebration -hay served. as © pretext and also ng an at- traction; but it will not account for the physical undertaking of assembling so vast & anultitnde, fhe explanation Is to be sought on the map. Atthe southwest corncr of Luke Michigan will be found a, dot trom which anumbor of Mnes diverge in all di-- reetlons.

Tho wnlyorsal desire to visit Chicago, for pleasure or for business, the unparalloled facillties for reaching Chi- cago from all sections of the country, tho superiority of the thermometria cpnilitions during the season when mest public festivals, are celebrated, and the abundant accommo. tlons which are provided for the multitude, are the various and distinguishing features: of Chicago us a popular resort, In no one of which can any other city on this continent. rival it. - All this ‘may be regarded by narrow. minded people as chayacterlstlo Chicago! boasting, which was go aptly hit off by Carter; orrlson’s story of the whales “ blowing for.

No such census wags taken, the Legislature linving failed to provide forso doing; and the law concerning an Increase ot Judges has re- mained unexeeuted ever since, ‘Tho gttestion now fs, Can the Legisiature provide in anticipation of an actual enumern- tion uf tho.inhabltants of the county for the election of additlonal. Judges for either the Cireult or Superior Court of this county? Tho Constitution of the State does ‘not re- quire tho’ Logistature to provisle by law for the election of such Judges, It leaves that question to be determined by the Legisinture itsulf, ‘Thora is, however, 0 strong linplica- tion, if not actunl assumption, that the Con- stitution Intended that tho General Assembly should be satisfied itself ns to the fact of the Snerease of population before authorizing the election of nilditlonal Judges. Could the Legislature in 1875, In the absence of any cendus or enymeration of the inhabltunts of Cook County, authorize the Governor in advance to direct an election for addittonat Judges whenever he should bo sutisfied that this county had incrensed its population by 60,000 or more in excess of the 400,000? This objection is urged, because of the efforts making to induce Gov. Cullom to call on election for four additional Judges In November next, under the act of 1875, It is also. urged that, even if the Governor be olliciaily. ndvised of the actual’ population of this county wider the census of 1880 In thue to order an election this fatl,—and this is doubtful,—good policy suggests that he leave the subject for further action by the Leglsin~ ture, which meets In January next. The Judges of the Superlor Court have hereto- fore always been elected in the oid years, and thus their elections havenever happened at the sane thme with Presidential or other general elections.’ Anelection for one Judge of thut:Court Will tako place in. November, 1881, und If the Legislature next winter be so disposed, then by law that body can pro- vide for the additional Judges of that court at the samo time, If there bo any question ag to the constitutionality of tho act of 1875, tho safer courso would be to leave the whola buslness to the Legislature, to be actedon by that body after the census shall be published, and when there cau be no doubt as to the valldity of thelr proceedings, ‘WHO CREATED THE ELECTORAL CcOM- MISsiON?
