The Ohio Statesman Becomes Presi

fer a Second Term.
FULL PARTICULARS OF THE EVENT.
The Capital City Itself i'm
Preparations and Decorations

meal Display and Ball.

Washington, March 4-William Nc
Kinley, of Ohio, to-day was indicted
into the presidential office, being the
eighth in the illustrious line Of pres
idents of the United States thus hon
ored by the American people with a
second and consecutive term. Stimuli
taneonsly, Theodore Roosevelt, of
New York, became vice-presldent OF
the United States. The ceremony that
marked this second assumption by
President Mckinley of the cares OF
state was most impressive and full OF
suggestion of the development of b
republic during the past four years.
Every presidential Inauguration in
recent years has had its parade, al
ways credible in size and variety, and
usually having some distinctive fea-
ture. That which followed President
Mckinley to-day on his return from
the capitol to the White House, and
passed in review there before him,
was different from all its ~predeces-
sors in the majestic predominance of
the military feature. The civil con-
tingent was quite up to h average
in point of numbers; yet by actual
count, made by the marshals, the
men in soldiery uniforms outnum-
bered the civilians in the line by more
than three to one. In the serried
ranks of blu were many soldiers who
had carried the country's flag far out
into the world, and had waged a war
which was all in the future when
the last inaugural procession marched
along Pennsylvania emu
With these younger veterans, n in
the place of honor, as the presidents
escort, marched another contingent
made up entirely of soldiers of the
civil war, all gray-haired and show
ing in gait and bent forms marks of
the passage of years and of the linger-
ing effects of the great battles and
campaigns in the most stupendous
struggle that the world has seen, and
it was an easy prophesy to observe
hat never again would they be able
to make as brave and numerous n
showing in their effort to escort a
president on the occasion of his ac-
cession to office. At their head, to
quicken their step, marched the
Rough Rider band, suggestive of the
extraordinary organization which
marked of the most inspiring
chapters in the history of the volun-
teer armies of the United States.
For the first time in a quarter of a
century the president rode from the
White House to the capitol without a
predecessor beside him in his car
riage. Grant was the last of the pres
idents of the United States up to this
time to occupy a similar position.
President Mckinley had for his COM
panions in his carriage members of
the committee specially chosen by
congress to take charge of the inau-
~guration, headed by Senator Mark
Hanna, himself a national figure.

ton, already of giant strength, yet whose
present strength is but a forecast of the
power that is to come. We stand supreme
in a continent. in Il hemisphere. East and

for facing them with high-hearted resoil-

Hottest exposition. They must ever mold

render to his fellows greater service than

prec;dan4 McKinlnv said.


Ny Fellow Citizens-When we assembled
here on the fourth of March, 1897, there
was great anxiety with regard to our cur
reucy and credit None exists now. Then
our treasury receipts were inadequate to
meet the current obligations of the gov
m Now they are sufficient for all
public needs, and we have a surplus in
stead OF a deficit. Then I felt constrained
to convene the congress in extraordinary
session to devise revenues to pay the or
binary expenses of the government. Now,
] have the satisfaction to announce that
the congress just closed has reduced tax
alton in tho sum of forty-one millions of
dollars. Then there was deep solicitude
because OF the long depression in our
manufacturing, mining, agricultural and
mercantile industries, and the consequent
distress of our laboring population. Now
every avenue of production is crowded
with activity, labor is well employed, and
American product find good markets at
home and abroad Our diversified roduc
lions, however, are increasing IN such IN
p~recedented volume as to admonish US Of
the necessity Of still further charging our
foreign markets by broader commercial
relations. For this purpose reciprocal
trade arrangements with other nations
should in liberal spirit be carefully Quilt
waited and nromoted
