INAUGURATION Day.

This day marks the change in a
national administration and the whole
country is watching proceedings at
Washington. where William H. Taft of
OHIO will be indicted into the Office,
the highest Office in the world, as we
Americans believe, which has been
held for the past seven years by Theo-
dore Roosevelt of New York In way
there is less interest in the occasion
than would be manifested if the new
President were of different political
party than the retiring President, but
as it is, such is the personality of both
of the great figures in today's exer-
cises at Washington, and such is the
public love of imposing ceremonial
even Ill this democratic land, that pref
ty much everybody from Maine to Cal
ifornia and from Oregon to Florida
feels a direct interest in the Inaugural
ton program and extends personal
congratulations to the new chief exec
utive with good wishes for the success
Of his administration
There is no need at this time to eulo-
gze Theodore Roosevelt or to enumer-
ate and praise the things he has ac-
complished. His administration has
been enc of the most notable in Amer
lean history, its splendid record is
known to the world, and the man him
self, like other great figures in history,
will grow greater as the years pass by.
His successor comes into office under
the most suspicious circumstances.
His election last November was an ov-
| erwhelming triumph, a triumph not
| only for the party which he leads and
for the principles in its platform, but
also a triumph for the man himself.
He comes to his office, with all it's du-
ties and responsibilities, not only re-
srected but personally admired by the
people in every section of the land.
| The more the country has seen of
W iil!dIIl II. ldll, ana IL Has seen IHucT
OF him the past year, the better it has
come to like him and the more i'm
| pressed it has been with his fitness for
the Office. His experience on the bench
in the Philippines, and at the head of
the war department, his tour of the
world and his intimate knowledge of
| the workings of the governmental
| machine in all the various depart
ments, together with his natural equip
ment and rare genius for doing things
| and for judging men, make him in all
probability the best fitted man for the
presidency that has ever been elected
to that office. The country has right
| to expect much of his administration,
and all the land joins most sincerely
and heartily in wishing him health,
happiness and success as he takes the
| solemn oath of Office today.

rage with Mr.. Macomber, are running
for the common council. The little fell
lows who have been guilty of spreading
the double track canard have repre-
scented them as anxious to get into the
city government in order to act on the
double track matter. The fact is that
if elected they could not, under the
law, pass upon this matter which will
rest entirely with the mayor and board
OF aldermen. The only man on either
of the present tickets in any way per-
sonally connected with Mr.. Macomber,
who will ever have a chance to act up
on this matter is his partner, Mr.. CARL,
the Democratic candidate for alderman
III Ward 6. We take pleasure in assur-
ing him that the Republicans of Au-
gusta will not be small enough to use
this as campaign argument against
him. They are not in the canard bust
ness. They have in their candidate Mr..
Johnson. as clean a man as ever ran
for office in Augusta man who
would never be guilty of using unfair
methods himself and who will not APP
prove the use of such methods by his
followers. Such a man cannot be
reached by anti-election canards. They
will help him by bringing the fair
minded men of both parties to his sup
port.
We can assure the voters of Angus
ia that if elected mayor of Augusta Mr.
Johnson will see to it that all the in
terests Of his fellow citizens are fully
protected, nor will he ever take any
action that is opposed to their wishes
His one desire will be to serve their
best interests. If his fellow citizens
call him to the mayors Office, as
everything now indicates will be the
case, he will come to it wearing no
mans collar, unfettered by pledges,
and absolutely free to give the city he
loves the best service that is in him.

Here is a Manchester hunting story
told by the hunter himself, whose
name however is considerably held
back While at his home last week,
he took his gun and in company with
a friend, left home for cruise through
the various SWamps in the vicinity,
stalking Dummies. The friend carried a
rifle and when in the heart of a damp,
deep swamp the friend saw a rabbit
peacefully nosing for Strawberries
under the deep overcoat with which
winter had covered the various mud
holes in the vicinity. Trained for
speed if not accuracy the shot came
quick and while the echoes We're re-
verberating through the pines and the
smoke rolled up toward the sky. Mr..
Bunny surprised but unhurt hit the
woodland trails for parts unknown and
while the eager sportsman was busy
jacking another shell into the barrel
the hunter climbed up from behind
q convenient bush where he had taken
refuge when the battle began and fol-
lowed up the trail of the bullet. Some
distance from the spot when the shot
was fired he came upon big dead tree
measuring fully three feet at the butt
and exactly at it's center about three
feet from the ground was a round hole.
While he examined this hole he. saw
ooZing from within the center of the
tree out in the path of the bullet a thin
yellow stream and two hours later he
had caught two ten quart pals of
honey from the hole the bullet made.
Nobody got stung. 1t just happened.
