WILSON, TOO, WOULD
WALK IN INAUGURAL
ADMIRES JEFFERSCNIAN SIM
PLICITY, BUT DEPLORES
ERROR.

Princeton, N. j., Jan. 2.-Governor
Wilson intimated last night that if it
were possible he would like to go afoot
between the white house and capitol
when he takes the oath of office as
president of the United States. He
realizes, however, that the crowds
would make it impossible.
Jeffersonian simplicity the kind
that the president-elect would like to
emulate, he remarked, consisted not of
a horseback ride, as some historians
have chronicled it, but merely an unos-
tentatious walk down Pennsylvania
avenue in the company of few citi-
zens.
The story tnat jefferson rode on
horseback to the capitol and hitched
his horse to a post while he went in to
take the oath of office isn't true" said
the governor. He was told that Gov
ernor Sulzer had walked to the capi-
tol at Albany. Mr.. Wilson spoke ap-
provingly of this.
He indicated that one of the very
first acts of his administration would
be to announce the date of the new
session.
