THE INAUGURAL BALL.
The Smithfield Herald Explains an
Editorial Reference to Mr.. POu
i'm This Connection.
Special to News and Observer.

Especial to News and Observer
Smithfield, \. c., Dec. 24.-ln an
editorial reference in the Herald this
week to the proposed inaugural ball
we made the statement that Con-
gresham Pou, of this district. advo-
Gated the capitol building as the
proper place to hold the ball. We
based that statement upon the follow
ing report of his speech in the Wash
ington Post of December goth: Rec
spoke in favor of using the capital; l
believe this Inauguration should be
conducted in no niggardly manner, he
asserted. and in accordance with the
dignity of the nation as world power
/ see no improperly in conducting
the ceremonies incident to the lnau-
guration of the President of the Uni
ted States in the National Capitol
building. The function is more in the
nature of q reception than ball. In
fact | understand there is very little
dancing INDUCED in. 1t seems to me 1T
would be the part of wisdom to adopt
the capitol for this use Our atten-
ton has been called to a complete
report of his speech as published in
the Congressional Record, from which
we find that while Mr.. Pou adocated
the holding of the ceremonies attend
ant upon the Inauguration of the Pres
ident in the Capitol he stated that he
did not think q. dance should be per-
mitted in the building. Not desiring
to do Mr.. Pou any injustice we make
the above explanation.
