after Chief Justice Fuller the follow
ing words Il do solemnly swear that
/ will faithfully execute the office Of
president of the United States, and to
the best of. my ability protest, preserve
and defend the constitution of the
United States.
Growing Event of the Day.
The taking of the oath was the
browning event of a day full of feat
ures. The crowd assembled for this
event cannot be estimated even by
comparison It extended far beyond
the reach of the voice, and was so
denseIy packed as to carry the stage
out of sight of many. The capitol
plaza. resourceful in accommodating
the thousands eager to view the cere-
mony was completely filled. People
came by its numerous streets and ave-
nues, which like so many yawning,
ravenOus maws, greedily swallowed
the thrOng. until every coign of van
tage was occupied.
Vice President Installed.
Half an hour before the event de-
scribed in the foregoing-at high noon
in the presence of as many of his
fellow citizens as could be crowded into
the senate chamber, Charles Warren
Fairbanks was indicted into the office
of vice president of the United States.
The ceremony was quickly followed by
the final adjournment of the senate of
the Fifty Eighth congress, the Begin
ming of special session. an address
by the vice president. and the swear
ing into office of almost a third of the
membership of the senate.
Presidents Inaugural Address.
In his inaugural address President
Roosevelt said
My Fellow Citizens: No people on
earth have more cause to be thankful
than ours. and this is said reverently,
in 10 spirit of boastfulness in our own
strength. but with gratitude to the
Giver of Good who has blessed us with
the conditions which have enabled us
to achieve SO large measure of we'll
being and of happeniness. To us as a
people it has been granted to lay the
foundation of our national life in new
continent. We are the heirs of the
ages, and yet we have had to pay few
of the penalties which in old countries
are exacted by the dead hand of a by
gone civilization. We have not been
obliged to fight for our existence
against any alien race: and yet our life
has called for the vigor and effort with
out which the manler and harder vir-
tues wither away.
Our Own Fault If We Fail.
Under such conditions it would be
our own fault if we failed; and the
success which we have had in the past,
the success which we confidently be-
lieve the future will bring. should
cause in us no feeling of vainglOry but
rather a deep and abiding realization
of all which life has offered us; full
acknowledgement of responsibility
which is ours and a fixed determine
ton to show that under free govern
ment a mighty people can thrive best
alike as regards the things of the body
and the things of the soul.
''Much has been given us. and much
will rightfully be expected from u.s.
We have duties to others, and duties
to ourselves; and we can shirk neither
We have become great nation of the
earth: and we must behave as beseems
people with such responsibilities
Toward all other nations, large an6
small, our attitude must be one OF
cordial and sincere friendship. W.

affairs of life, the qualities of prac-

 Almost twice the length of the Erie canal. or about TOO miles, the Grand canal of China is by far the longest artificial waterway in the world It passes through one of the most thick ly populated sections on the globe, and the variety of craft which navigate it's waters Is the most wonderful on earth.

FIGHT FOR MAYoRALTY.

Ex-Governor Black and Judge Par
 ker Argue For Rival Candidates.
 ALBANY, N. Y, Dec. 12.-The unusual spectacle of former governor and a former chief judge of the court of ap- peals opposing each other as counsel in the battle for the mayoralty of the chief city on this continent was pre- scented in the court of appeals when ar gument was begun in the so called New York ballot box case. There was very large attendance of lawyers and spectators.
 The contest represents the contention of William Randolph Hearst, John Ford and J. G. Phelps Stokes, Munich pal Ownership candidates, that at the election of Nov. ' they were rightfully elected to the offices of mayor, comp troller and president of the board of aldermen of the Greater New York and that this will be shown by a re- count O. the votes. Former Governor Frank S. Black and Austen G. Fox, as- sisted by Clarence J. Shearn, appeared for the Hearst side; former Chief Judge Alton B. Parker. Corporation Counsel John J. Delaney and Assistant Corpo- ration Counsel Arthur c. Butts repre- scented the claims of Mayor Mcclellan and his Democratic colleagues to the election.
 A spicy incident added interest to the legal discussion when Austen G. Fox, during his argument for the Hearst side, referred somewhat sarcastically to Judge Parksr's position in view of his opinion in the Brink case He sug- gested that it opened up possibilities of new industry for retired judges to appear before courts in the effort ito induce their intellectual brethren to recede from positions already taken" on questions of law.
 Judge Parker admitted before the court that he had made mistake in his decision, when chief justice, in the Brink case and argued that 1t should not apply to the Hearst contest.

It looks as though the Panama ap- propriation bill will have stormy time ahead of it in the senate, says our Washington correspondent. It was conceded that it would be passed by the house with considerable speed, but even at that there was S5,500,0O0 cut from the amount and all of the mem- bers who had a spite either against the measure or against the president took opportunity to vent it. There were some very caustic things said about the payroll of the commission. some of which were true and some exaggerated for party and personal ends. A good deal of capital was made out of refer ring to the S1O.OOo press agent of the commission. Now it is quite true that Mir Bishop, who is thus desig- mated, is probably over paid, he is really the secretary of the commission. and why he should be always spoken of as the press agent is a little hard to see. There was some criticism also of the other s10.OOO men. W. D. Ross, the purchasing agent, and E. S Ben son. the auditor Whether these are both good men it will be possible to judge by experience If they are, they probably are not over paid. The pur- chasing agent is one Of the most inn portant officials under the commission. He has much more than any other one man to do keeping supplies of all sorts up to standard and his opportunities for graft. if he is dishonest. are limit less. The auditor is almost equally important. and under the government system of bookkeeping he is likely to earn his salary whatever it is. If these two men are we'll paid. there will be less temptation for them to look for money on the outside. and if S1OOo0 each will keep them honest in a tropi- cal atmosphere. which is reiolent of graft. the commission may be spending money wisely in giving them good sal aries.

It develops that there are more roads to fame and competence than being born in Oho graduating from Harvard or having served in the Rough Riders. It is rumored that the president is about to appoint Bat Masterson on his personal bodyguard in place of MT Tyree, made United States marshal of West Virginia. There Is no indica- ton that the president is threatened with any particularly pressing danger or that he is more than commonly nervous: but he does love a man who is light on the trigger: Masters6n; the famous ex-sheriff of Dodge City, only recently came to New York to accept the post of marshal there. But he has recently had couple of conferences with the president and it is more than possible that he will be picked to suc- ceed Tyree. Bat" always was a handy man with a gun. but he was decidedly on the square and he held down the delicate and difficult post of sheriff in the days when it was said that there was mo law west of Omaha and no God west of Dodge City" The chances are that if he becomes a spe- cial secret service man he will never have to crook finger on a trigger But he is a man who has proved his ability to do that when required. and the pres. ident has an especial fondness for a man who is delft in that direction.

TUESDAY, DEC 12, 1905.

The field work of the forest service in the preparation of working plans for timber tracts belonging to private owners has covered during the year just past total area of 1,9S2,000 acres distributed among seven states ly1ng in four forest regions. One of these working plans was for tract of 30,- 900 acres in Logan county, West Nlr- ginia. This country is just developing as a coal mining region, and the lands examined are underlaid with coal de- posits which are now being worked. The forest is made up of hard woods from which the more valuable trees have been largely culled. As a result of this inferior species, such as beech, have increased their numeric propor- ton in the forest, and now threaten to predominate. Two distinct types of forest are found. The mixed hard woods type occupies the lower lands and the better soils. Here yellow pop lar. white oak, beech, basswood, ash and chestnut are the principal species. On the higher lands and covering the poorer soils is found the chestnut oak type, with chestnut oak, chestnut red and black oaks and hickory as the chief species. Owing to careless lum- bering. repeated ground fires. and, on lower lands, to overgrazing, the forest has greatly deteriorated.

Whole Family Burned to Death.

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-The fire en- zines were just changing their way out of Columbus avenue last night when John H. Thomson approached his home. He saw that the fire had been in the building in which he had left his wife and five children. He met neigh bors and asked, Are my folks safe?" Then he tore madly down the street to the police station. "rell me where my wife and babies are" he cried. Be brave" said the sergeant. Thomson, you have need of it. Show him." he added to a patrolman. The father was led into the large sitting room used by the reserves. Arranged along the floor were the charred bodies of six persons, Thomason's whole family.
