are pretty big things. and this second
inauguration Of Mr.. Cleveland was a
little the biggest thing Of the sort ever
seen in this country, and that means.
OF course. the biggest affair OF the kind
ever seen anywhere, for no other coun-
try than ours, and no other city than
Washington, can boast among its at
fractions a quadrennial coronation by
an outpouring OF the masses and an
outcropping of intense partisan 10y.
Most countries have to be satisfied
with coronatiors at rare intervals or
presidencies assumed by proclamation,
sans ceremonie, and the United States
is the only country in the world that
can be depended on for regular inaug-
urations every four years, conducted
with pomp and eclat betitting party
triumphs. While every Inauguration has
been conducted with appropriate dis
play, naturally great enthusiasm is
called out when the victorious party
has been out of power during the clos
ing administration. It required months
for the people Of Washington to prepare
for the event, even accustomed as they
are TO arrange Sucn ceremonies.
The capital city for this occasion was
decked out as it never had been decked
out before. The decorations were
superbly brilliant. All preparations for
the event were on a great scale, and
the strangers who availed themselves OF
the accommodations provided were es-
timated at over 1000. More would
have attended had the railroads been
more liberal.
These great inaugurals have three
principal, popular features. One is the
grand parade from the Capitol down
the avenue past the Treasury and the
White House. This occurs in the after
noon. A second popular feature is the
fireworks and illumination In the even
ing, and the third is the inaugural ball.
These are the features in which the
great crowds of visitors are in
terested. The Inauguration itself is
not much to them, because 80 few
are able to see the new President and
Vice President take the oath of office.
Only ZOO people can be crowded into
the Senate Chamber, where Vice Presi-
dent Stevenson was sworn in, and after
the Diplomatic Corps, the House of
Representatives, the Supreme Court, the
Army and Navy. the press and families
of high officials, and a few favored or
influential persons have been accom-
modated there isn't any room left. AS
a matter OF fact this year not one In a
hundred of the people who thought their
Importance entitled them to admission
were able to get in. There was more
