galaxy that surround Mr.. Cleveland,
He was born in Newton, n. G.,
ON the I'd of December 1855, and is de-
sccndcd from Cavalier and Puritan
stock, his family having been among
the early settlers of New England.
When he was IL years of age his father
removed to Atlanta, where the son be-
gan the study Of law. After his nd.
mission To the bar he devoted his cner-
gics TO the law with such success that
he has built up large and lucrative
practice. He but recently took
an active part In politics. and
was conspicuous in the campaign
which resulted in the election of Gen.
Gordon to the Governorship and To the
United States Senate. He Is an eloquent
and engaging public speaker and well
versed in political methods. 1t was
largely due to his efforts in the Chicago
convention of last July that the South
! crn delegates were induced to tender
their allegiance to Mr.. Cleveland. His
influence during the campaign was also
potent with good results and did much
toward bringing him into national
prominence. His abilities are ungucs-
toned among those who know him best
and his character Is above reproach

complishments and has two children,
the eldest but years of age.

outgoing house of representatives led
by Speaker Crisp and Clerk of the
House Kerr; distinguished guests. Be-
low the platform and stretching ont
almost as far as the eye could reach,
the spectators had massed themselves.
Tens of thousands of threats howled
themselves hoarse, and tens of thous.
ands of hats and handkcrchlcfs were
waved when the familiar figure of
the presldent-elect appeared IN full
view of the multitude. Some little
time was occupied in arranging and
seating the guests, and the exercises
were then commenced. The oath of
office was impressively administered by
Chief Justice Fuller, and as the presl-
dent with hand uplifted kissed the
book, the cheering was renewed. Then,
stepping to the front of the platform,
so that his gaze might fail in turn up
on every part OF the sea of humanity
before him, the president cleared his
throat, took glass of water and
commenced the delivery of his inaugu-
raj address, which was as follows:
Mr. FELLOW CITIZENS: In obedience TO the
mandate Of my countrymen, am about TO
dedicate myself 10 their service under the
sanction 81 u solemn oath. Deeply moved by
| the expression of confidence and personal at
| tachment which has called me to this service,
l am sure my gratitude can make no
better return than the pledge l now
| give before God aud these witnesses Of unre-.
served and complete devotion TO the interests
and welfare of those who have honorcd me. |
deem 1t fitting on this occasion, while indi-
| eating the opinions hold concerning public
questions of present importance, TO also briefly

and tendencies among our people
which seem TO menace the integrity
and usefulness Of their government.
Manfestly, nothing is more Vital to our
supremacy as n nation and TO the benefccnt
purposes OF our government than sound and
staple currency. In dealing with our present
embarrassing situation as related 10 this sub
ject we will be wise IL We temper our eonh-
dsnce and faith in our national strength and
resources with the frank concession that
even these Will not permit MS 10 DEFY
with IMMUNITY the MEMORABLE laws Of finance
and trade. In the meantime, so far as the
| executive branch Of the government can IN
teryene none OF the powers with which II is
invested, will be withheld when their exercise
is deemed necessary to maintain our national
! credit or avert financial disaster.

President Cleveland when the Chief
Justiceship now held by Mr.. Fuller be-
came vacant. As counsel for the Bos-
ton \ Maine line, the Atchison, Topeka
4 Santa Fc, Chicago, Burlington \
Quincy roads he has been kept quite
busy, succeeding the famous legal
light, Sidney Bartlett.
Mr.. Olncy was born in Oxford, Mas,
in 1895. His only political venture
was when he represented the second
Norfolk district in the Legislature in
1874. This was the year when there
was great overturn in state politics,
William Castor defeating Governor
Talbot by nearly 5000 votes. In Mr..
Olney's district there was II close con-
test, On the face of the returns he was
only five behind. A recount made IL II
tie, and ON new election he won the
seat. 1t has been supposed by many
that Mr., olney was II mugwnmp, but
his fealty to the party has never been
questioned. In fact, ever since he en-
tered into politics his Democracy has
been Of the stancheSt kind. Promin-
cnt men of the party here declare tho
selection to be one of the strongest that
could be made

draggled banners and general air of
forlornness marked the parade, but
the programme marked out was carried
through with only few disarrange-
ments and the ceremonies lost none of
their old time attractiveness from the
discomforts of the weather
The conditions of the weather made
the marching difficult and many organ
izations failed to take part as 1t was IN
tended
The day was ushered in with the
booming of cannon. The city was
filled with people, and Old Glory was
seen everywhere Shortly after II
o'clock special committee escorted
the president-elcct from the Arlington
hotel to the execuh &C mansion. Presi-
dent HARRISON greeted the president
elect with extreme cordially, and the
committee then escorted President Har-
Vice. President elect Stevenson to the
capitol.
The galleries of the senate chamber
were packed to suffocation, in the
space to the left of the diplomatic gal
lery sat Mrs. Cleveland, surrounded by
a number of friends. Shortly before
noon the procession moved from the
senate chamber to the platform on the
outside, in the following order: Marshal
