be a progressive one. This is the first time
for twenty-five years that the Republicans
have control of the State.
The city was filled with people from ali
over the State. The pent-up enthusiasm OF
the Republicans for thirty years burst
forth in all its magnitude. Long before the
hour for the Inauguration the surging
mass OF people gathered In front of the
Statehouse in order to be in a position TO
see the most popular man In West Vir-
ginia inaugurated as the chief executive of
the State. Governor MacCorkle in "a splen-
did Grafton introduced the Governor-elect
to the anxious populace. Governor Mac
Corkle paid splendid tribute TO Governor

speech, outlined the policy OF his admins
tration.

McKinley's tones were clear and ringing
and carried well, but amid the confusion
and shrieks which prevailed about the place
they could hardly be heard fifty feet from
the stand. AS the shifting multitude ceased
to surge, toward the close of the address, his
words carried far into the crowd and were
answered with cheer upon cheer. Especially
enthusiastic was the response to his i'm

restore prosperity. The negroes. whose
black faces checkered the crowd in front,
