| Figuratively, though perhaps not literally,
on the steps Of the capitol Benjamin Harri-
| son laid down his office and Grover Cleveland
became the chief magistrate of the United
| States.
The ceremonies of taking the oath are simple
| but impressive. The chief magistrate of over
6OOO00O0 people was surrounded by the digni-
! taries of the government and representatives of
all the foreign powers The oath was admins
tered by the highest judicial officer of the gov
ernment and in the presence of the represen ia
tives of the people, yet with all this glory he
did not forget the early teachings of his child
Lood and used as he did eight years ago the
simple little Bible presented to him by his
mother when he started on the journey of life.
Having performed this ceremony he turned to
the people and then told them what he hoped to
do during his administration.
His inaugural was not long and he delivered
it in clear, strong voice. but notwithstanding
that he was not heard by one-hundredth part
of the crowd in front Of him. The last words
had hardly left his lips before the signal was
given, and the cannon doomed forth announcing
to the world that Grover Cleveland was presi-
dent of the United States.
Then was the time for the crowd to cheer,
and they did it.
Hastily and amid the shouts of the populace
the president and eX-presideRt Harrison left
the last portico and began the triumphal return
up the avenue TO the white house. BY this time
the streets were densely packed with people,
and rs the president and ex-president and their
military escort passed along the wide avenue
cheers rent the air and the democrats knew
that they were again in power. 1t was with
proud heart and smiling face that Mrs Cleve-
land saw her husband pass in the carriage be-
fore her as the president of the United States.
She had never before had the extreme ioy of
seeing him ride up the avenue on such an occa-
sion.

| in our public policy and laws The benefit Is al
ready gained through this instrumentality and
the further usefulness il promises, enttle it to
the hearty support and encouragement of all
who desire to see our public service well per-
formed or who hope for the elevation of political
sentiment and the publication of political
methods.
The existence of immense aggregations Of
kindred enterprises and combinations of bus-
ness interests formed for the purpose of limit
ing production and fixing prices, is inconsistent
with the fair field which ought to be open to
every independent activity. Legitimate strife
in business should not be superseded by an en-
forced concession to the demands of combina-
tions that have the power to destroy; nor
should the people to be served lose the benefit
of cheapncss which usually results from whole
some competition. These nggregations and
combinations frequently constitute conspiracies
against the interests of the people and in all
their phases they are unnatural and opposed to
our American sense of fairness To the extent
that they can be reached and restrained by fed
eral power, the general government should re-
lieve our citizens from their interference and
exactions.
Loyalty to the principles upon which our gov
ernment rests positively demands that the
equality before the law which it guarantees to
every citizen should be justly and in good faith
conceded in all parts of the land. The enjoy
ment of this right follows the badge of citizen
ship wherever found and unmpaired by race or
color it appeals for recognition to American
manlincss and fairness.
Our relations with the Indians located within
our borders impose upon US responsibilities we
can not escape Humanity and consistency re-
quire us to treat them with forbearance and in
our dealings with them to honestly and consid-
erately regard their rights and interests
Every effort should be made 10 lead them
through the paths of civilization and education
TO sef-supporting and independent citizenship
In the meantime, as the nations wards they
should be promptly defended against the cupid
ity of designing men and shielded from every
influence or temptation that retards their ad-

The tons of beautiful bunting and flags along
Pennsylvania avenue were stif with ice, partly
covered with snow and streaked with running
colors The slight snow which was falling al

0 O'Clock it was falling in dense clouds AS
noon approached the fakes grew larger The
snow piled up on the ground and il was in the
parlance of the Englishman, 'vewy nawsty

The many great amphitheaters built along
the avenue for viewers TO witness the parade
which were not provided with roofs pre-
sented most disheartoning view. The
seats were covered deep with snow
and the decorations were truly tout of
sight" The immense platform constructed
at the east front of the capitol, from which the
new president delivered his inaugural address
and where, seated about him on every hand,
were the representative men OF the country,
had carpet at noon which was inches deep
with snow. Mr.. ClCveland's "luck" was not
with him Saturday. Meteorologically speak
ing Saturday was match to the one four years
ago, when President Harrison delivered his in
augural address under an umbrela in a pclting
rain, and when men marched in rain for hours
to complete the great parade
Washington slept very little Friday night,
and at the break OF day the streets, which had
nearly all night been full of life, became throb-
bing masses Of humanity. II was the 4th of
March, day long looked forward TO by demo-

if sorry thtt the republicans were going out of
power The sky Friday wept farewell and
the carousals Of the democrats seemed out of
place on the mournful occasion Yet Saturday
all speed the parting guest and welcome he

Washington is decorated as never before. AL
though the crowds are not as large as expected,
yet the city is full TO overfowing, and many
were obliged TO spend last night upon the
streets for lack of accommodations
OF course Pennsylvania avenue Saturday
morning was the magnet which drew all the
crowds AblaZe with flags and bunting and
massed like one great circus tent it
early became densely crowded. Every
body wanted TO see everything and
everybody was in good humor Marching
men with bands Of music promenadcd up ana
down the wide thoroughiare moving to their
places OF rendezvous. Crowds came rushing in
from the dcpots, all eager TO see and get some
point OF vantage Great masses of people hur.

The second gallery was decorated similarly
TO the hrSt, with floral pieces above each col
umn, vases fairly overtowing with roses and
other flowers, while the sides were covered with
national and state escutcheons, alternating.
Foreign governments were complimented

and, of course. the national coat of arms
Flowers and growing plants were everywhere.
About the pillars, covering the music stands,
over the arches; in the center was fountain
OF splashtng water, translucent in the rays of
electric lights of many colors. The fountain
is surrounded by growing plants, flowers and
vines, and its effect is so unique that it forms
one OF the most attractive features of the
general scene. Two great floral arches each
sixty-tve feet in height, are on eithtr side of
the court, while just in front of and sur
rounding them are the stands for the musi-
clans. The arches are trimmed in pure white
bunting, forming background for plants
ana vines and odorous flowers They are the
crowning features of the room. From the dome
of one, the magic name cleveland" blazed in
electricity; from the other stevenson" shines
The band stands are marvels of artistic floral
beauty Banked around the base of each of the
eight gigantic pillars supporting the roof are
flowers and plants in profusion, while from the
tops OF these pillars depend waving ribbons OF
smilaX hfty feet in length. The columns bear
artlstlc shields, each having upon II the name
OF one of the twenty-three presidents of the
United States and of Vice President Stevenson.
1t is estimated that twelve thousand people az
tended the affair, but only small proportion
OF these took part in the dancing. The thronR
was too great to admit of freedom in the waltz
and scottische and polka, alfd the pressure
about the square sets was so intense that the
reVelers were given but little space for their
terpsichorean eYolutions.
