The Vare men have been assiduously drilling and will hold their last two rehearsals this week. Senator Vare declares his followers will stage the tlnest turn out ever seen at an inaugural for many years. All of the upstate counties ure pre paring to send delegations to parti cipate in the parade. Inauguation day will be an event in the life of State Treasurer Harmon M.
