PRESIDENT BREAKS
LONG PRECEDENT IN
ABANDONING BALL

WASHINGTON, March 4.-Presi-
dent-elect Wilson. in abandoning the
inaugural ball and reception, broke a
precedent which has been in existence
almost as long as the republic itself.
The inaugurations of Washington. JEFF
ferson and Adams were not accompa-
MED by dancing, only small receptions
being given. but from the time of Mad l.
ison down it has come to be the Gus
tom for the new president to show
himself at some social function on the
night of his Inauguration, To this rule
there have been but few exceptions.
To avoid the necessity Of holding a
public reception, President Madison at
tended the first inaugural ball in his
tory, which was held in Longs hotel.

to Enter
His Last Term as
10th Congressman
BY JAMES 8. NEVIN.

WASHINGTON, March 4-When
Congressman Thomas w. Hardwicll, of
the Tenth district, takes the oath Of
office for bis next and fifth term as
representative in the national house he
will begin that which he now is re-
solved shall be his last term therein
He has stated to several of his friends
in Washington that under no circum-
stances will he be a candidate to sue
coed himself. He is said to have run
last time against his real personal in
clinations, and next time he will turn
the office over to some one else.
Mr.. Hardwick has found membership
in congress a losing game, in so far as
making living and putting something
by is concerned. He believes he can
make three times the salary practicing
law that he now makes as a congress-
man. His campaigns have been very
expensive, too, and he realizes that he
must fight a vigorous and determined
opponent every time he offers for cleo
ton.

ADMINISTRATION
FACES PROBLEMS
Three Great Measures To Be
Handled by New President
and Congress.

WASHINGTON. March 4-Thre,
great domestic legislative problem
faced the Democratic administrator
when it came into complete control G.
the government today. These problem.
are the revision of the tariff, the re-.
form Of the United States currencv
laws, and the regulation of the trusts.
Another important legislative Tact left
over for the new congress is the(forma
ton of income tax legislation, made
possible by the constitutional amend
ment recently adopted. Next in line OF
Importance come the question of CON
servation, economy in public expendi-
lures, patronage and the foreign pol
icy The tentative program for the ex-
tarordinary session Of congress, soon to
convene, indicates that a foundation
will be laid in that session for gran
ping with all these matters.
In preparation for consideration Of
the tariff, which is regarded by most of
the Democratic leaders as of para
mount importance, the ways and means
committee of the house which ha.
charge of all tariff legislation, has been
holding secret sessions for weeks past.
The result of the deliberations of this
committee is said to be the near com
pletion of a tariff bill intended to pro-
vide sufficient revenue for the running
expenses of the government while at
the same time it reduces some of tho
most criticised rates of the Payne-A-
drich tariff law.

Mrs. Wilson Must Use
Much Care in Naming
Her Society Cabinet
Wife of President Does Not Know
Many of Washington
Leaders.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-The in
duction of her husband into office to.
day brought Mrs. Woodrow Wilson face
to face with problems as perpIexing as
any Mr.. Wilson will be called upon To-
solve during his administration.
The wife of the new president comsl
to Washington known to Comparatively
few women, among whom are Mrs. ia,
L. MARITIME. wife of the senator from
New Jersey; Mrs. Thomas P. Gore
wife Of Senator Gore, Of Oklahoma, ami
Mrs. Albert S. Burleson. of Texas. Hes
position, therefore, is that of one who
must sift and refine the mass of Demo
cratic newcomers to the capital and
select her social cabinet much after the
manner followed by her husband in ro.
cruiting his political aids.
Among the many prominent Demo-
cratic women who have been mem
toned as probable leaders of the Demo.
cratic social administration are Mrs.
Norman f. Mack, who presided at the
Dolly Madison breakfast here las
spring; Mrs. Senator O'Gorman Of New
York; Mrs. John Sharp Williams. who's
tastes are known to be similar to those
Of Mrs Wilson; Mrs. William EIicot,
of Baltimore, whom Mrs Wilson 10.
Gently visited, and Mrs. Champ Clark
wife of the speaker of the house Of rep
resentatives.
The Inauguration of an entire new
social regime entails change in til,
mode of entertainment.
1t was thought today that the sim
plcity with which the Wilson's hay.
carried themselves since their eleva-
ton to political prominence will be fol-
lowed out in their social administrator
