Hanna could have set splendid eX-
ample to the country by making the
Inauguration ceremonies eclipse all
others since the war, not in the gOr-
geousness of their appointments and
trapping, but in their simplicity. 1t
would have pleased the country at
large, set Europe to wondering and
would have been to the full as accept
able to the modest gentleman who
has lived all his life without Ostenta-
ton. But great as Hanna was he
was not great enough for that This
is really u matter of regret, for the
occasion had come to eXemplify the
idea of Republican simplicity, and
with no one else could it have been so
fittingly introduced as with the pres.
ent president elect. The contrast
which it would present to be gOr-
geOusnesS of the outgoing incumbent
would be enhanted by seeing the two
American citizens side by side in their
notable contrast. The Republicans
would have nothing to fear in the
comparison that would be made.
