The Inaugural Address.

President Harrison's Inaugural is
worthy of the great nation whose first
century of progress he reviews. Elo-
quent and in every way admirable in
tone, breathing a spirit of genuine
patriotism, appealing to the higher
motives and better feelings of politi-
cal opponents, it is in the only praise
worthy sense non-partisan, and yet
seeks no shallow approval by any
concealment or sacrifice of conviction.
In that respect it will remind the ma
ton of the earnest appeal which made
President Lincoln's first Inaugural
address a powerful and memorable
paper. 1t speaks unhesitatingly and
without compromise for those whose
convictions have prevailed in the late
election, but speaks for them only as
they sincerely seek the welfare of the
Republic. Felicitously the president
begins by referring to Washington S
Inauguration a century ago, and to
the growth of the nation in territory,
in material conditions, in education
and comfort of the people. From
this he passes, with brief recital of
events which is a powerful argument
in itself, to the duty of maintaining
that American industrial policy which
engaged the first thoughts of the pat
riots who founded the republic
Tribune.
