that has not been said before. but # Is
worthy Of particular notice as coming from
an out-and-out republican organ and pro-
lection paper in the leading republican

republicapism meant anything else than an
iniduitous tariR measure based upon pay

outrageous "dickers." The present bill is
complete Justification for democratic
fears and an emphatic corroboration OF
all that was said by democratic speakers
and newspapers last year. So true is this
that even thick and thin republican papers
like the Dispatch, are ready with such
damaging admissions against their party
as those quoted above.

VINO had been admitted TO the noUr OF

who had been admitted TO the galleries.
The occupants Of the galleries re-
manned seated until the procession had
left the senate chamber. when they
were escorted in sections by the Of
flcers in charge of each section to the
platform, where separate sections cor
responding to the sections In the gal
lery had been reserved for them, and
where the proceedings did not begin
until all on the floor and in the gall
leries had assembled to witness them
After the occupants Of the galleries
had proceeded to the platform em-
ployes Of the senate, supreme court,
house of representatives and the IL
brary Of congress and architects Of
flee were admitted to seats on the
platform.
Almost the entire east portico Of the
Capitol is taken up with platforms,
the principal platform being one pro-
jecting in front of the central entrance
to the main portion Of the Capitol, and
to this platform marched the company
Of distinguished men escortlng the
president and the president elect
There were 10000 to 80 900 people stand
ing in solid masses before these plat
forms, all crowding and crushing to
get as near as possible to the main
structure. AS Cleveland and McKin-
ley appeared side by side and were es-
corted to front seats they were greeted
by thunders Of applause, which were
repeated again and again until Major
Mckinley arose to deliver his inaugu-
raj address. Then the cheers were re-
and It was several minutes before Ma
jor Mckinley could proceed. Standing
on the platform, raised several feet
from the ground, William Mckinley
delivered his inaugural address and
was sworn In as president Of the
United States, by Melville w. Fuller,
chief justice of the United States su-
preme court
Each important stage IN the outdoor
ceremonials was announced by the
booming Of cannon A national salute
of 21 guns was fired as President
Cleveland left the White House in

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man oaers to Send His Dis
oovery Free


There Is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man so overf0ws with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world, in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered
1t is upon this principal that q resident OF
Kalamazoo, Mich, desires TO send free to
man iud a prescription which will cure them
of amy form Of nervous debility relieves
them Of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor. As IL
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realize what might he
the final result ought to be deeply interested
in q remedy which will restore them to
health, strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence Of untold
misery. AS the remedy in question was the
result of many years research as TO what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength they need, 10
would seem THAI all men suffering with any
form Of nervous weakness ought 60 write for
such % remedy at once. A request TO II. C..
Olds Box 17l2, Kalamazoo, Mich, stating
that you are mol sending for the prescription
out of idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use of the medicine by giving it q trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as TO where information came from.
The prescription is sent free and although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send To Mr. Olds so that he may know
how you came TO write him. 1928 7St

House, which l',2sident Mckinley
reached ahead OF the main body of the
parade, a luncheon was hastily served
for him before he went to the review
ing stand. At this time he and Mrs.
Mckinley took leave of ex-President
and Mrs, Cleveland, who left at once,
the former going down the river on a
trip and the latter to Princeton, N. J.
The presidents personal escort consist
ed of Troop A, of Cleveland, and after
the presidents carriage marched a de-
tachment of veterans of the Twenty
third Ohio volunteers. The presiden-
tial party followed in carriages, and
after them rode General Granville NJ
Dodge and staff at the head Of the
military grand division.
The grand arena of the inaugural
display was the short section of the
avenue between Fifteenth and Six
teenth streets, flanked on the south by
the White House and on the north by
Lafayette square. Here both sides Of
the street are a solid front Of covered
stands. This year the stands are Of
uniform design and decoration, save
that from which the president review
ed the parade. This, with its white
front, oorinthian columns and several
classical outlines, is not unlike a min
iature Of the White House in its rear.
The other stands, those for the multi
tude, are covered I'm imitation of stone
work, rooted over. With their wreaths,
garlands and bristling flag stats,
which futtered with countless banner
cites, they easily suggest the embat-
tied lists at Ashley or the Florentine
piazza, where the pageants Of the
Agona wound their way at carnival
time. There are sunbursts Of bunting
over the fronts of the larger stores
and hotels, and numberless flags float
ing from every building that owns a
flag pole. After nightfall, too, there
will be seen everywhere garlands and
clusters Of incandescent lights.

"THIs WAY FOR SEATS TO SEE THE PARADEF'

oorted to the vice presidents room,
where they remained until the cere-
monies began I'm the senate chamber.
Vice President Stevenson did not par
ticipate I'm the parade from the White
House to the Capitol, as his duties as
presiding officer of the senate required
his presence in the chamber. He re-
ceived the distinguished guests In his
room, and rendered them an informal
luncheon there In the meantime the
families of the incoming president and
vice president had been cared for by
the committee on arrangements, and
located in a section of the senate re-

the ceremonies in the senate. In the
same gallery were also guests Of Pres

The first officer of the new adminis-

Vice President Hobart, the last act
performed in the senate of the present
congress being the administering of
the oath of office to Mr. hobart. This
ceremony was performed by the retir-
