Of progress? How long will those who
rejoice that slavery no longer exists cherish or
tolerate the incapacities it put upon
their communities? Look hopefully to con-
tinuance OF our protective system and to the
consequent development OF manufacturing and
mining enterprises in States hitherto wholly
given to agriculture as potent influence in the
perfect unifcation Of our people. Men who
have felt the benefit of their neighborhcod, and
find and to defend q community of interest Is
it not quite possible that farmers and the pro-
motors OF great mining and manufacturing en-
terprises which have recently been established
in the South may yet find that free ballot of
the workingmen, without distinction of race, is
needed for their defense as we'll as their own?
Il do not doubt that if those men in the South
who now accept the tariff views of Clay and the
constitutional expositions of Webster would
courageously avow and defend their real con-
victions they would not find it difficult, by
friendly instruction and cooperation, to make
the black man their efficient and safe ally, not
only III establishing correct principles III our
national administration, but in preserving for
their local communities the benefits of social
order and economical and honest government.

tlons OF q special executive policy for any see
tion of our country. 1t is the duty of the execu-
tive to administer and enforce, in methods and
by lnstrumentalities pointed out and provided
by the Constitution, all laws enacted by Con-
gress. These laws general, and their adj
ministrat ton should be uniform and equal. A
citizen may not elect which he will enforce. The
duty to obey and to execute embraces the Con-
stitution in it's entirety and the whole code of
laws enacted under it.

GEN. HARRISON'S FIRST FORMAL AD-
DRESS TO THE COUNTRY.

He Thinks that the Naturalization Laws
Are Not Stringent EnougI-Civil-S Service
Reform Will Be Enforced - Views on
Other Important Subjects.
WASHINGTON, March 4.-Following is
the inaugural address delivered by Gen.
Harrison:
@There is no constitutional or legal require
ment that the President shall take his
oath OF office in the presence of the people, but
there is so much app opriateness in the induc-
nation that from the beginning of the Govern
ment the people, to whose service the official
oath consecrates the officer, have been called
to witness the solemn ceremonial.
An oath taken III the presence of the people
becomes q mutual covenant. The officer cove
nants to serve the whole body of the people by q
1altnful execution OF the laws, so that they may
be the unfailing defense and security OF those
who respect and observe them, and that neither
shall be able to evade their penalties or to wrest
them from a benefcent public purpose to serve
the ends of cruelty or selfishness.
MY promise is spoken; yours unspOken, but
not less real and solemn. The people of every
State have here their representatives. Surely I
do not misinterpret the spirit of the occasion
when assume hat the whole body of the peo-
pie covenant with me and with each other to-day
to support and defend the Constitution and the
laws, and each to every other citizen his equal
civil and political rights. Entering thus solemn
~ into covenant with each other, we may rever-
emily invoke and confidently expect the favor
and help of Almighty God, that he will give to
me wisdom, strength and fidelity, and to our

L.,

the President in front of the Executive
Mansion.
The President, as soon as the arrange
ments ON the platform were completed,
turned facing the Chief Justice, i'm the pres
ence of the people; the clerk of the SUI
preme court advancing between held an
open Bible, the President resting tine palm
of his right hand upon the open page and
repeating after the Chief Justice the oath
prescribed by the constitution. Having
finished the new President leaned over and
kissed the sacred book as symbol of
acknowledgment of his great trust in be-
half of the people and their institutions.
Chief Justice Fuller then extended his
hand lin greeting, the VicePresident ad-
vanced and extended the same form of
salutation on behalf of the legislative CO.
ordinate branch of the government. The
moment the President placed his lips upon
the Bible in response to a given signal the
batteries i'm the park fired national salute
and the troops presented arms. Then the
President delivered his address. The SEN
ate returned to its chamber and formally
adjourned for the day. The committee on
arrangements having charge Of the Presi-
dent escorted him to the state carriage,
drawn by four horses, awaiting him at the
Senate entrance. The President took a
position near the head of the column, pass
ing down Pennsylvania avenue to the
White House, where he reviewed the great
procession from the stand erected for the
purpose in company with a large number
of prominent officials of the States and
nation and the diplomatic corps.

At 10 a. III. the Senate and House had
named the usual joint committee of Motif
cation of the President of the readiness OF
the two houses of Congress to adjourn.
The joint committee having been commu-
nicated with President Cleveland conveyed
his answer to their respective houses that
he had no further communications to make.
The committee of arrangements then
waited upon Mr. Morton, who was in at
tendance at the -Presidence's office at
the capitol. Having received their Motif
cation the e-President-elect entered the
Senate chamber by the main door. His
presence having been announced by the
door-keeper the Senate arose. President
pro tempore ingalls, standing said: "Sena-

day was not to take place until high noon,
and the huge procession of so, 600 people,
military and civic would not move until
near that hour. Yet by 10 O'Clock the long
line of seats which had been erected up and
down Pennsylvania avenue began to be
black with people anxious to see the spec
tacular features of the day. The great
mass of people of course were deprived of
the privilege Of witnessing the event which
took place inside the capitol, for but a
handful compared with those who are in
the city could be given accommodation in
the Senate chamber. At the inauguration
proper, however, all are permitted to see,
provided they can get near enough to the
grand stand to do s..
At the east front of the capitol a plat
form covering q half acre or more of
ground had been erected and was gay with
flags and bunting. On this were seats for
a thousand people-SenatorS, Representa-
tives, the Supreme court, Cabinet, and
other government officials diploma ties, and
distin guished visitors. Admission to this
was obtained only through the capitol, and
the entrances to that building were care
fully guarded to prevent the admission of
any save those bearing the proper creden-
tials. The great plaza at the east of
the capitol, surrounding and III front of
the stand, however, was free to the people,
and there they began to gather long be-
fore the hour set for the Inauguration. Po-
sitions on the steps of the capitol were at
premium, as were also the places imme-
diately in front of the grand stand Long
before noon the great plaza was filed with
men and women, while in the park ad Join
ing batteries were in position to boom the

people surged into the plaza in front of the

hand from the Bible on which he swore to
