Washington newspapers would begin to
have few stray paragraphs and adver-
tisements touching the inauguration as
early as the I'd of March, followed by a
brief account Of the arrangements made
on the morning of Inauguration day a

tiOn the day afterward and final mem
tion of the emptying of streets and
hotels the day succeeding. As for the
world outside Washington it neither
attended the ceremonies nor took inter-
est in more than the inaugural speech
and a brief general mention of the cere-
monies.
Railroads aud Outside Representation.
Martin Van Buren's Inauguration is
the initial point of a marked change.
Rotation in office had begun to be pop
ular incident of a change of administra-
ton, while the introduction of railroads
began to make the capital more access
ible. The rapid development of the then
Western States greatly increased the
business and patronage of the federal
government. Politicians soon acquired
the habit of coming personally to attend
the Inauguration reception at the White
House, and to give personal attention
to their ''claims" upon the public pa
tronage, Then followed in time the
bringing on of political clubs to join in
d a a a ,aI "a "a I
and give ocular proof of the loyalty,
power and merits of the political chief
tains by whose pains and expenditures
these bodies were brought upon the
scene. Famous among these pilgrim
bands for many years was the Empire
Club" Of New York, under the noted
Captain Isaiah Rynders, whom no dem
ocratic administration ventured to
neglect or disregard. As showing how
the growth and development of the
country affected land probably still
affects inaugurations, it may be mem
toned that the procession which es-
corted Franklin Pierce was every way
larger and finer, and attended by
greater crowds, than in the case of
Zachary Taylor, a popular hero, four
years before. Buchanan's inauguration,
in its turn, was a distinct advance upon
that of Pierce.
Washiugton's First Inauguration.
The early days of the federal govern
ment show much variety in the ceremo-
mics by which Presidents permitted
their inaugurations to be accompanied.
Washington made a sort of state jour
ney from Mount Vernon TO New York,
eliminating in the famous reception at
Trenton, and the administration of the
oath and the assumption of the Presi-
dental Office had various traces OF mon
archical customs about them. There
was Just little touch of lf-abasement
in the behavior of the sovereign
people according TO modern views Of

jefferson was the first President in
augurated at Washington. At that
time Pennsylvania avenue was but a
spongy track, along which the alder
bushes had been slashed away to the
width called for by Major L'Enfant's
that the city had were lodged in two
groups, one about the Capital and the
other beyond the Executive Mansion to-
ward Georgetown. The inaugural route
was a desolation, and jefferson, clad in
workaday garments, rode it on horse
back, with a few personal friends, and
walked into the Senate Chamber with
out ceremony. -Four years later he had
a better remembrance of how Cincin-
natus behaved on a certain memorable
occasion, and entered the Senate Cham
ber, r,with ceremony, in dress coat, small
clothes, silk stockings and silver buckles.

low them he said that when the Demo-
cratic party declared in its national plat
form for the repeal of the government tax
on the issue of state banks hue and cry
was raised by Republican leaders as if a
public enemy under arms was about to
invade the country. Investigation of the
subject, however, showed that no one had
ever lost dollar by the depreciation OF
the notes of regularly chartered state
bank. or its failure TO redeem its currency
IN gold or silver when called upon TO
do so.
1t was this kind of a circulating medium,
resting on specie basis, and always re-
deemable that was driven out of existence
by spurious, insincere mode of taxation
for the benefit of the national banks.
voorhees, denied the constitutionaltiy of
the To per cent tax on state bank circula-
tion, even though a majority of the su-
preme court had reached such conclu-
sion, and argued for the right of the state
to provide its people with "A circulating
medium through the agency of state
banks.
For the rest the government would never
abandon national currency, and he eX-
pected at no very distant day that United
States notes, such as are and have been in
existence for thirty years past, their pay
ment guaranteed by the honor of the gov
ernment, would supersede all other ma
tional money except gold and silver, and
that without jar or friction they would
circulate in the hands of the people along
side of the well-guarded safely secured
currency issued by the states and guarau-
teed, according to the constitution, by both
the precious metals.
The speaker then laid down the declara-
tion of principles given at the beginning
of this article and closed with an eloquent
peroration, after which he was compli-
mented by a number of the senators.

PALMER GIVES HIS VIEWS.

He Says We Are on Gold Standard Al
ready.
Palmer of Illinois also made notable
speech in which he said that the reason
the Sherman act was passed was 20 pre-
vent the passage of free silver bill. 1t
was noticeable in Voorhees, speech that
nowhere did he define bimetallism as he
held the doctrine; whether he favored
free coinage of silver at 10 TO l. The fact
Is that tie ratio of coinage is what divides
the two factions n congress. Nobody OBJ
jects to the ;.sC Of silver as money, but the
gold men demand that the dollar shall
have dollars worth of bullion IN it, if it
Is oo.He,. ut al.
The free coinage men say that if free
coinage Is established at 1G to !, 4l25
grains Of standf rd silver will soon be
worth 100 cents. VOORHEES, is indefinite on
this vital point. Palmer is not. He came
right out and SAID that gold was now the
standard and silver mere commodity; its
fluctuations were such that its use as
money was not safe and would not be so
until both gold and silver dollars were
equal in value. 1t was impossible to fix a
ratio; the market value OF silver was in
state of chronic fluctuation. One thing he
was sure Of and that was that the first
ching to be done was to repeal the Sher-
man act. He believed that would be one
step in the solution of the problem.
The repeal, be said, should be accoPlpa-
MED by legislative action putting beyond
doubt the determination of the United
States 70 uphold the proposition that an
American dollar is 100 cents. He had no
sympathy with the talk about England

Fiat Idea.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-Eighty-five res
idents of Douglas county, Ills, think that
they have solved the financial question.
They make their plan public through a
petition to congress, which was presented
in the senate by PETER. and which was in
words and spelling as follows, except the
address: "Your petitioners, citizens of
Pleasant Ridge, Douglas county, Ills, and
vicinity are opposed to our present Finan-
cial Laws and petition your Honorable
Boldly to revise them. Please hear us, we
are opposed to the issue of any more in
tercste paying bonds.
I'VE demand gold, silver, aud paper
money issued by the government and a
sufficient amount for the best interest of
the govern ment, gold to be a legal tender
to amount of $500 after that l per cent
discount, silver to be legal tender to
amount of $50 after that l per cent. dis
count, paper money to be a legal tender
for all debts in the United States. Of gold
worshipers wants gold let them buy it,
we demand revenue and tax on all
wealth to share the burden of expences of

BILE ex.Presidents Thomas jefferson, An
drew J ckson and Abraham Lincollen as
honest advisors, We advise a make to be
put on all traitors that are opposed TO hon
est and Just Laws and have them to take
warning before it is too Late"
Pfeffer himself submitted to the senate
Monday a plan the full details of which
are somewhat remarkable. He proposes
the immediate issue and circulation of
treasury notes to the amount of $3.50, ,OO0,-
600 of the denomination of 81, 81, So, SO
and $40 These notes are made payable in
lawful money and a-e TO be received by the
government for taxes and all public dues
and to be legal tender for all debts. As
fast as prepared they are to be placed in
the treasury as so much available cash and
paid out the same as other public moneys
and re:ssued when returned to the treasury

Cherokee strip will be opened Sept. 1e
caused the greatest excitement among the
boomers, 5000 of whom are camped here,
and the rejoicing as the news spread was
of the widest description. At night
there was a mammoth demonstration with
a parade, boufres and speeches. From
every point of the strip where boomers
have centered come reports of demonstra-
tions. Men seemed to have gone mad with
delight and women are not far behind

Proceedings in Congress.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23 In the senate
Allen of Washington gave notice Of an
amendment to the Voorhees, repeal bill by
substituting free coinage bill at 16 to l.
PETER introduced resolution cutting the
salaries Of all government officials who re-
ceive more thru 81 600 per year. Voorhees,
spoke on the repeal bill, blaming the de-
preston on the money power and national
banks and advocating repeal of the Sher-
man law, and an income tax. Palmer of IL.
linois spoke, declaring silver hopelessly de-
moralzed and advocating repeal as first
step to help silver. Debate then took place
on Voorhees, national bank bill, but il

The silver debate occupied the house all
