Comments OF the Democratic Press On
the Presidents Speech
There Is no hesitation or evasion in
that portion OF President Cleveland's
inaugural in which he deals with the
tariff question He pronounces square
~ for tariff for revenue Only, and in
this stands with his party--St Louis
Republic.
No one can read the clear and strong
words of Mr. ClcveIand's inaugural ad
dress without feeling he has a very
distinct idea OF the duty Of his party as
well as OF his own, and a very firm pur-
pose to hold his party to its duty
well as to perform his OWN Y
Times
Upon the larger lines OF political
thought and action, the new admins
tration sets ont upon its journey
toward the fuIfllment OF democratic

The inaugural address of President
Cleveland was worthy of the man and
the occasion Higher praise could not
be given. Less praise would fall
short of justice. The prevailing spirit
of the address is that OF patriotism In
this it is like the paternal addresses of
Washington or the earnest adnoni-
tons Of Lincoln. The utterances are
those OF honest conviction. The tone
is that OF determined courage--N Y.

dress is brief and directly to the point

rests with him, to carry out the viii

Grover Cleveland became twenty
fourth president of the United States,
in the prime of his powers, being in
his fifty-seventh year, in good health
and having had four years experience
as twenty-second president of the
United States. He carries to the exec
utive of the greatest of nations mature

cratic principles upon which he has been

Not the least impressive part of the
proceedings was the inaugural address
of the newly-installed president Mr..
Cleveland has weil-established repu-
tation for happiness in the making of
addresses and on this occasion he was
more than usually felicitous. The adj
dress is broad, strong, statesmanlike
and in the best sense fitting to the &C.
casion. There is no attempt at orator
zeal rhetorical display 1t IS the
plain speech of a plain man to plain
people In its earnestness, however,
its conciseness, its grasp of the situa-

SIT is scarcely discipline, Miss Bessie;
but it can do no harm; and your own
honest face, your fathers name, guar
antee me that it will not be abused
A scarlet flood dyed the girls face,
and her eyes fell beneath the grave, fa.
therly regard of the old soldier, as he
released her hand and moved slowly on.
Then she few to the sidewalk to give
the joyous tidings to mother and friends,
not emitting another meaning glance at
Evan Fauntleroy.
AS Gen. Baldwin's eyes turned to that
group of waiting men and women, they
encountered glowing pair of black
ones fixed steadily upon him, their own
er standing directly behind Mrs. Gilmor
Gray, and wrapped in heavy, dark
ulster. light of recognition passed
over the generals face, and he made
movement to check his horse, seeming
about to speak. But the other man,
with very slightest shake of his head,
put his finger carelessly upon his lip,
and the federal communicable look of
recognition on his face changing to
one of contempt-turned his eyes
toward the prisoners once more, riding
slowly onward. AS he passed out of
view, his mute interlocutor raised his
hat gracefully, saying over that lady's
shoulder:
ga very sad spectacle, my dear Mrs.
Grayw
Turning quickly at the words, the
matron started as her glance encoun-

transportation is thoroughly equipped
and ready to handle ten times the daily
bulk that has yet been received on the
grounds.
Preliminary estimates give thirty
thousand car loads as the probable
amount of exhibits that must be re-
ceived, unpacked and installed before
May 1. Up to date only four hundred
car loads have been received. There
are sixty working days left IT, from
now on, five hundred car loads of eX-
hibits should be received each day the
last exhibit would not be installed
until the evening before May L. 1t is
highly important that the transporta-
ton department should not be over
crowded at the last moment, and that
is why exhibitors have been asked to
come early and avoid the rush.
The different state exhibits are rap
idly approaching completion and it is
safe to predict that this part of the
great exposition will be in order for
Jhe opening day.
Great efforts are being put forth to
make the agricultural displays bril-
liant success. Each state is wing with
the other in this department, and the
brisk competition for supremacy in the
matter of display will be productive of
some rare and novel features.
MiSsourians are all in glow of en-
thusiasm over the states exhibit. Now
that installation has been begun they
gan see the benefit that will accrue to
them if their display is generous in it's
proportions, and are la boring accord
ingly. One of the features of their dis
play will be statue of George Wash

will be an agricultural pagoda con-
structed of products of the field, sur

And, as the line moved slowly on,
grave men and dainty wonderland
bIight-faced little children too, scarce
compromising but thus love-laden
also-left their homes, keeping abreast
it, but ever repealed by bayonets of the
guard, intervalled along the column.
But suddenly, around the corner of the
Gray residence, just beyond, rode an
officer of rank, sedate, kindly-faced
veteran with stars upon his shoulder,
and followed by glittering staff.
-|Halt!" rang out from the captain of
the guard, command gladly obeyed by
the prisoners. Spite of the piercing
wind sweeping down the broad street,
many of them crouched down to rest,
some lying prone upon the cold stones
of the pavement, from sheer weakness.
And it CHANGED the center of the line
was directly opposite the residence.
From the closed lattice of her attic,
Carolyn Clay scanned the prisoners,
with blazing eyes, her hands clinching
and a hot sigh coming, but never a tear,
as some poor wretch tottered and
sought the inhospitable couch of the
roadway. But her pale lips quivered
as they sent fervent supplication for
these sufferers-strangers, yet brothers
in their woe-up to the Thrones foot of
the All-Father.
More than one face seemed familiar
to her eyes, running swiftly down the
line; some she had seen in camp, with
more than one she had spoken, in the
smerry days of early war. Suddenly, as
she looked, the woman gave great
gasp, the blood rushing to her ashen
face, burning on either cheek in great
red disks. And her long taper hands
clutched the shutters fercely, as though
to fling them wide.
For there-coatless under the chilling
wind, his priced thigh boots of camp
dandyism replaced by ragged shoes, yet
frank, defiant and with clear eyes flash
ing out of his cold-blued face-stood
Evan Fauntleroy.
-'Merciful God! Why am 1 so help
less? Oh, if / but daredr' Miss Clay
cried aloud, as her hands dropped list
less from the lattice. ''Oh, if Bessie
were but here! Father. aid me nowi''
AS though in answer to her prayer
the door opened hastily, and the girl
she longed for, running in painting,
passed her arm about the other as she
followed her gaze below.
II thought of you, Caro-, so helpless
up hereI'' she gasped. ''There might be

a Strong DenunciatiOn of Vicious Pro-
lection Legislation.
OF President Cleveland's fealty to the
platform upon which he received the
support of the people of the United
States there can be no doubt after his
inaugural address is perused. There is
no equivocation or indirection in his
words. He says:
"They (the people, have thus determined in
fa.Jr of more just and equitable system of
federal taxation The agents they have chosen
to carry out their purposes are bound by their
promises not less than by the command OF their
masters to devote themselves unremittingly to
this service. While there should be no surren-
der of principle, task must be undertaken
wisely and without vindictiveness. Our mis-
sion is not punishment, but the rectihcation of
wrongs. II in lifting burdens from the daily
life OF our people reduce inordnate and IN
equal advantages too long enjoyed, this is but a
necessary incident of our return 10 right and
justice
IF we exact from unwilling minds acqui-
essence in the theory of an honest distribution
of the fund of governmental benefceuce treas

which underlies our free institutions. When

which have blinded our countrynen to their
condition under vicious tariff laws. but
show them how far they have been led away
from the paths Of contentment and prosperity.
When We proclaim that the necessity for rev.
enue to support the government furnishes the
nounce truth so plain that its denial would
seem to indicate the extent to which judgment

versions OF the taxing power: and when we
seek to reinState the seif-confidence and b1si-
ness enterprise of our citizens by discrediting
ar abject dependence upon governmental favor.
We strive TO stimulate those elements OF Amer
lean character which support the hope OF Amer
lean achievement
The recognition in these words of
the right of the people to command and
the duty of their serv ants to obey is
plain and unhesitating. It Is a recog-
milton of the fundamental principle of
democracy-of truth that cannot be
gainsaid- The vieiouSuess of the ex-
listing tariff laws has been made APP
parent TO those who have long been the
dupes Of the monopoiists. and vast ma

that the tariff tax must go. If there

has been removed. With harmony and
