NEGROES At THE INAUGURA
TION.

N. %. Picayune The inauguration
ball, &c which any person may purchase
tickets and attend, was up to President
Lincoln's time social affair to which
only those who were invited were admit
ted. When Lincoln was inaugurated,
society was so taken aback that it
omitted the customary ball. Then it
was that the matter was taken TIP by
ether persons as a speculation and it
was opened TO all who would purchase
tickets.
The inauguration ball today is in no
sense social. but wholly commercial
and political affair It is not strange
that negroes are buying tickets and are
going to attend The sale of tickets is
open to everybody as much as if it
were d circus, and there can be no re-
strictions as 10 the race and. color Of
those who pay their money The Wash
ington ball must not be considered in
any other light than as a business specu-
lation with Republican basis to it,
and when this IS understood there can
b no objections to il being patronized

It may not be out Of place to mention
that this choosing Of March 1 for Sin
aalguration day is credited to the Amer

that Sunday would fall on that date

London, JAN 7.-It has Just been
learned that a baronetcy and d peerage
were offered to Andrew Carnegie on the
occasion Of his visit here last summer.
Mr. Carnegie is close friend Of Lord

when III power proposed to Mi. Carne-
gle that he become d citizen Of Scotland
and revive the glories Of the old Carne-
gie clan. Mr.. Carnegie declined the
honor, declaring that while lie loved
Scotland, America had been a good
mother to him and he would not desert
her. /:

brief represents the views Of Mr.. Ko-

who has recently resumed charge Of the

ELECTORS
FELL DOWN
NO OFFICIAL NOTICE OF N. D.
ELECTION RESULTS SENT
North Dakota and Dozen Other
States Have. Failed to Comply with
/ the Federal Regulations Regarding
the Choice for President.

III Washington, Jam 7.Thirteen states
including Minnesota, North Dakota,
and Wisconsin, have violated the fed
eral statute which requires that there
shall be in the hands Of the president
Of the senate, not later than the first
Wednesday in January, following a
presidential election, certificate from
the electors in each state, setting forth
the result of the election in that state,
and what was done by them, in pur-
suaflce of law, at meeting they are
required to hold in December to ar
range preliminaries for the final count
of the electoral vote.
u IL such a meeting Of the North Da-
kota electors was held last month, no
word of it has reached Washington,
and it is certain that no report oi
that meeting has yet been received by
Senator Frye of Maine, although the
law says it should have been here two
days ago. The federal authorities will
wait a little while and then If the delin-
qiient states are still delinquent, steps
will be taken to have the electors fa-
miliarize themselves with the law
A heavy penalty is prescribed for
violating the statute, but in all prob
ability it will not be enforced in the
cases under discussion, as the violation
has undoubtedly been the result OF ig-
.norance.
The electoral vote will be officially
#canvassed by the two houses of con
sgress in the hall Of the house, Feb. s.
