Local members of the Grand Army of the Republic, who are in spirit, if not in body, :n Detroit this week, and who are indeed represented by Henry Hovew of this city, are interested in the doings, at the Forty-eighth annual encampment of the G. A. R., and its affiliated organizations that was of- ficially opened on Monday. * Bven before the opening, there were five thousand veterans and their fam- ilics and friends in the big western city, and by Tuesday might 30,000 Civil| war survivors and guests . were on hand. It was a great and enthusi- astic gathering. The first public meeting was held Tuesday night at the Light Guard armory, when the veterans welcomed by Goveror Ferris and other citizens of Michigan. ‘Responses were made by Washington Gardner of Albian, commander-in-chief of the G. A. R. and others. Boy Scouts, clad in khaki, were the first to sreet the veterans and scort them to hotels or roominz houses, or to army headquarters. Just as at Gettysburg; the youngsters are per- forming splendid %s}-vicm The parade on Wednesday was the big feature of the encampment. The route covered, a mile and a half through some of the principal streets of Detroit, and forty-four state de- partments, each led by its commander, and totalling about 10,000 comprised the parade. ' Before the parade, at the meeting Tuesday night,. it was officially an- nounced that the Grand Army council, which held an executive session in the afternoon, had upheld the commander’s parade ruling and that concerning the manner of conducting business meet- ings. The announcement said the council was unanimous'in its decision. ‘Commander Gardner had ruled.that the women’s organizations, associated with the G. A. R., were not eligible to march in the annual Grand Army parade today. He also had declared himself in favor of secret business sessions. ¥ “It was Dot because I am not in sympathy with these organizations ‘because I am in sympathy with them,” said Mr. Gardner referring to his par- ade ruling. “But I dorf ot think it is the wish of the membership of the G. A. R.. that we open the parade to as- sociated organizations. That is why I made the ruling.” Governor Woodbridge ‘N. Ferris, of Michigan, who addressed the meeting at the armory, spoke on the patriot- ism of peace. A number of times dur- ing his address, he was interrupted by applause which lasted several minutes. “Thank God; members of the Grand Army, your forty-eighth encampment is for the purpose of making more sacred the patriotism of peace,” said the governor. A plea for the perpetuation of “The Star-Spangled Banner” as the Amer- fcan anthem was made by the com- mander-in-chiéf, in his address before the encampment Wednesday. . Fe urged the old soldiers to join in a movement to pay special honor to this song, and.to discountenance the practice of play; 4t in medley with such “fiippant/ and comparatively as “Yankee Doodle” and “When Johnnie Comes Marching Home.” He said there was something , inspiring in an audience rising .and standing uncovered at the strains of the national anthem, but it was “incongruous, - bordering even on the ludicrous” for the band to strike up some other national air in medley with this, and to observe the audience resume sitting in “an_irregu- lar, balf-ashamed manner.” It were better not to rise at all when the na- :‘:15.‘1 hymn is played in medley, he A recommendation that permanent beadquarters for the G. A. R. be es- tablished in Washington, was another point of his' address. Chicago and Philadelphia "'had been proposed, but ‘he preferred the national capital, and thought that if possible the necessary space should be secured~in a govern- ment building ‘where the officers could keep closely in touch with matters be- teore Congress’ ‘which affected the EASTERN ° STAR. Monday, -honoring the 'birthday an- niversary of Robert Morris, rounder of the Order of the Eastern Star, about 150 members of the order from all parts of the state gathered at Lake Compounce, and the day was fittingly observed . in acordance with the an- nuval custom of the Eastern Star mem- bers, Grand Matron Mary Orr, of Meriden, made the . principal address of the day. relative to the life and his- tory of.-Robert Morris, and there were a1s0 remarks by Mrs. Fannie Gardiner, of Milford, Ella Lines Cnapin, the right worthy ‘grand condustress; Har- riet L Burwell. of Winsted, srand sec- fretery, and Associate Grand Patron George Stoeckel, of Hartford: Follow- [ing a sumptuous chicken dinner, George Stoeckél was elected grand Mrs. Walter -Pond of Winsted, nd Mrs. Moffatt of Win- allup of Moosup; and Mr. fown, were elected aides the meeting next year. to prep &B‘lflmfimm Book-keepers, Stenographers, o Secretaries, or Commercial Teachers, BRYANT COMMERCIAL SCHOOL BOSTON ”whhwfid%w Btreat, 2 mest ostwbla oppartunity for stady and practice ummm&?mma. carps of well known and course, Civil service and %‘hklebuié-mn ‘ersans wiocannot call Aimmomdmg_x §:fi Hmsann, & STRATTON noed: oourse, Stencgraphie ceurse, Seeretarial couTse.

The, Republicans of <Connecticut would take a long step toward putting this state back in the &. O. P. column, should they nominate such a man as ‘Howell Cheney of Manchester for gov- ernor. Already there is talk of Mr. Cheney's candidacy, but if it "is to amount to anything, the office must seek the man. Mr. Cheney has shown conclusively that he will not lift his little finger to_seek the office. In Howell Cheney the Republicans would have a candidate happily at- tractive to all classes. Mr. Cheney is a manufacturer and as such could fit- tingly preside over the destinies of one of the greatest manufacturing com- monwealths in the union. On the other hand he is one of the leaders in the work of social legislation; his mills at Manchester are models and he is beloved by his workmen as an employer of the right kind. Mr. Cheney was one of the most in- fluential of the legislators,in bringing about workmen’s compensation, and years pefore the law was heard of in this te, a system practically the same in effect (more liberal than the OLD DR.

Such a man would command the admiration and respect of the community.—Eridgeport Tele- gram. V/hat Fisher Says, Speaking before the employees of the Colt’s Patent Firearms Manufac- turing Company's plant the other noon, Professor Willard C. Fisher, progressive democratic candidate for governor, declared: “Unless you vote for delegates at your Thurs- day caucus, who are unmistakably Fisher men; if you send non-commit- tal to ‘no choice delegates’ to your convention, you will be doing nothing else but engorsing ‘Charley’ Comstock, the “New Haven road’s favorite lobby- ist, for governor.”—Hartford Courant. Woodruff Confident. Former Senator Frank C. Woodruff who is identified with the movement to land the governorship nomination on the republican ticket for former Lieut. Governor D. "A. Blakeslee, says that he is confident of the success of this movement. Few of the delegates to the state convention, elected at-the republican caucuses about the state last night are pledged to any candi- date and this fact in itself is claimed to help the friends of Mr. Blakeslee in their effort to place him at the head of the republican state ticket.—New Haven Register. Their Stxle. Politions from progressives in var- fous parts of the state for the placing of the name of Prof. Willard C. Fisher of Middletown on the party primary ballot have been received at progres- sive headquarters in Hartford. The progressives naturally like Fisher. He is their style of a candidate. Just at present, though, he is seeking the dem- ocratic nomination and cannot look for the other, but he intimates that if there is any cheating, or evidence of machine rule at the democratic con- vention he might consider it.—Water- bury Republican.
