The Inaugural Address.

TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. 1O.-Gov. LEVEL
ling received mighty ovation as he
stepped forward to deliver his inaugural
address 1t was several minutes before
the new chief magistrate would speak,
so enthusiastic were his hosts of ad-
mirers in all parts of the hall. When
order had at length been restored, how
ever, he spoke as follows:
Honored Governor and Fellow Citizens: The
profound responsibilities of this moment are
too great for the individual For the present
We are citizens more than partisans. and each
must lend his strength TO bear this burden
Adopting the language Of an eminent states
man. 1T is not that we love party less, but
country more, that now upon the threshold OF
the new year and surrounded with new condi.
tlons we plead the cause of higher and purer
patriotism, and demand that political parties
shall exist by reason Of progressive PRINCIPLES
rather than subSist upon the spoils Of ONCE.
The survival of the fittest" is the govern.
ment OF orutes and reptiles and such philoso-
ply must give place to government which
recognizes human brotherhood 1t is the proy.
lnce OF government to protect the weak, but the
government to-day is resolved into struggle
OF masses with classes for supremacy and
bread until business, home and personal integ-
rity are trembling in the face Of possible want
in the family.
Feed tiger regularly and you tame and
make him harmless, but hunger makes tigers
OF men When this beast is wounded By hunter
in India and is making preparations for re-
vengeful assault the musicians seated on an
elephant play vigorously TO charm him with
their melody. And thus the people are ap-
peased by q jingle Of the sonorous words Of
party platforms

The democrats then offered the speak
ership to the populists, the other offices
to be divided between the two parties,
and to pass certain measures in which
the populists are interested, through
both houses. In return the populists
agreed to stand by the democrats on all
political questions and the senatorship.
When the house met the assembly hall
was packed to suffocation. Every dem
ocrat but the sick member, Davidson,
was present, as were all the republic
ans and populists, Watkins, the popu-
list who had been put in by the repub-
lcan minority as temporary speaker,
occupied the chair.
The democrats nominated Mathews
for speaker and the republicans Jockey.
The vote stood 90 for Mathews and "a
for Jockey. All the populists and one
republican voted with the democrats.
For chief clerk the democratic caucus
nominee was elected. Then the house
adjourned, On joint ballot the assem-
bly, will stand So democrats, populists
and % republicans.

Mr.. BLAINE IMPROVED.
The Opinion Of Physicians Alter a Con-
sultation.


sultation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. l0.-The answer
to inquiries at the Blaine mansion dur
ing yesterday afternoon ranged from
"He is resting easy" to He is very
much better" Nearly every person who
passed looked up at the lace curtained
windows and few braved the appear
ance of the big mastiff lying at the
doorway and made bold to ask the SER
want at the doorway how Mr.. Blaine
was progressing.
Rev. DR.. 7. S. Hamlin, pastor of the
Church of the Covenant, called at
o'clock. He came out in a few min
utes.
"Mr. Blaine is much better, they
say" was his reply to question
A joint consultation lasting for per-
haps an hour was held between Drs
Johnston and Hyatt When the physi-
clans left the patient, both concurred
in the statement that Mr.. Blaine's con-
Iition was decidedly improved.

The Pension Deficiency.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1O.-Commissioner
of Pensions Raum appeared before the
deficiency subcommittee of the house
appropriations committee and explained
his estimates for. pension deficiencies.
His first estimate for this deficiency was
over $40, 1000, 900 and the committee was
somewhat surprised when he informed
them that he now estimated this de.
fciency at something over s1S,SOO, OOO
He gave the pension payments for the
first half of the year and made an ar
gument to show that if the payment
for the second half averaged as much
as the first, his deficiency would have
to be increased by over $1,000, 900.

heved. lie said that
he had felt for years that he was bear
ing burden of suspicion which ought
to attach to others.
The single desire of his father and OF
himself, De Lesseps is quoted as saying,
had been to bring the Panama canal
enterprise to a successful conclusion,
but blackmailers had taken them by
Che Threats and the Panama company
had been compelled to buy the support
and aid which, in the interest of the
good name of France and for the bene-
fit of thousands of French investors,
should have been given freely and as
matter of public duty. Now that he
had told the truth he felt as if a great
weight had been lifted from his mind
and he hoped that the people of France
would place the responsibility where
it belonged.
NJ. Marius Fontane followed the ex-
ample of NJ de LeSseps in making a
frank and complete statement of Pana-
ma canal affairs
According to the Matin to-day, the
arrest of NJ. Blondin was due to an
avowal by NJ. Fontane that Blondin
had acted as a go-between in the cor
ruption of Minister Baihut. Blondin,
the Matin says, has confessed to having
cashed four checks on Baihut's account,
amounting to 100000 francs.
This confession OF Blondin agreed
with and was confirmed by the state
ment of NJ Fontane. Ex-Minister Bal
hut, however, persists in denying the
charges of corruption. The public are
not surprised at the allegations in re-
gard to the eX-minister, and there is a
strong feeling in favor of a thorough
investigation of the ministry of public
works apart from the Panama scandal.
NJ. Fontane has expressed an earnest
desire to resume work on his "Histoire
Universelle," in which he was inter-
ruptcd by his arrest He was accus-
toned to getup ats o'clock every morn
ing to work upon this history, of which
seven or eight volumes have already
been published. Should he be sentenced
to imprisonment as result of the pro-
ceedings against him, he will undoubt-
eddy request permission to continue the
task in prison.
The governments preparations to
suppress disorder next Tuesday are not
based upon any apprehension what
ever of a royalist outbreak, but upon
the attempts OF the extreme socialists
to arouse an instruction. The govern
ment does not view even the socialist
movement with serious apprehension,
and is confident of its ability to main.
tain order. Gen. Saussier may be re.
lied upon to give loyal support in case
of an outbreak and the troops under his
command are believed to be equally
loyal

ELECTION NEWS.

After sizing up the first election
returns it would seem that outside OF
Kentucky, Virginia and Nebeaska,
the republican, made clean sweep
of everything. Associated Press dis
patches received by the Fargo Argus
up to Wednesday morning said that:
Ohio had gone republican and
that Mckinley was elected governor
by plurality OF from 10000 to 49,
ooe votes. Republicans elected
two thirds of the legislature. Later
dispatches will probably change the
above figures some.
Dispatches from New York indi-
cate that the state has gone republi-
can from 10000 to 10000. May
nard, the notorious judge who is
credited with stealing United States
senator, was defeated by Bartlett, re
publican, by about $4,000. These
figures are subject to correction.
In Illinois the election is about a
standoff. AT midnight Tuesday re-
turns indicated that the republicans
had elected the entire judicial ticket
and the democrats had elected county
commissioners inside the city.
Measre dispatches from Kansas
indicate that the republicans have a
plurality of all the votes cast.
The republicans made a clean
sweep in Iowa. Jackson, republi-
can, is elected governor over Boies,
democrat, by 10000 to $4,000 votes.
Massachusetts, goes republican
likewise. The republican candidate
for governor is elected by 10000.
The legislature is strongly republi-
can.
The republicans elected all the
supreme court judges in South Da-
kota. Very light vote polled.
In Nebraska the fight is very
close between republicans and popu-
lists,w the populists slightly in the
lead.
New Jersey goes republican and
the anti-gambling element will con-
troll the legislature.
Virginia and Kentucky went demo-
cratic.
Pennsylvania went republican and
Michigan does likewise.
LATEST RETURNS.
McKinley's majority in Ohio
abou: 10000.
