PRESIDENT WILSON'S
INAUGURAL ADDRESS

IS There has been change of
government. 1t began two years
ago, when the house of represen-
tatives became democratic by a
decisive majority. 1t has now
been completed. The offices of
president and vice president have
been put into the hands of demo-
Gratis. What does the change
mean? That is the question that
is uppermost in our minds today.
That is the question l am going
to try to answer, in order, if
may, to interpret the occasion.
1t means much more than the
mere success of party. The sue
cess of party means little ex-
cept when the nation is using that
party for large and definite pur-
pose. No one can mistake the
purpose for which the nation now
seeks to use the democratic PARTY.
1t seeks to use it to interpret a
change in its own plans and point
OF view. Some old things with
which we had grown familiar,
and which had begun to creep
into the very habit of our thought
and of our lives, have altered
their aspect as We have latterly
looked critically upon them, with
fresh, awakened eyes; have drop
ped their DISCUSSES and shown
themselves alien and sinister.
Some new things, as we look
frankly upon them, willing to
comprehend their real character,
have coLae to assume the aspect
of things long believed in and IA
miliar. stuff of our own convic-
tions. We have been refreshed
by a new insight into our own
life.
We see that in many things
that life is very great. 1t is in
comparably great in its material
aspects. in its body of wealth, in
the diversity and sweep of its en-
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1913-03-04

ergy, In the industries which have
been conceived and built up by
the genius of individual men and
the limitless enterprise of groups
of men. 1t is great, also, very
great, in its moral force. No
where else in the world have no.
BILE men and women exhibited in
more striking forms the beauty
and the energy of sympathy and
helpfulness and counsel in their
efforts to rectify wrong, alleviate
suffering, and set the weak in
the way of strength and hope.
We have built up, moreover, a
great system of government,
which has stood through a long
age as in many respect a model
for those who seek to set liberty
upon foundations that will en-
dure against fortuitous change,
against storm and accident. Our
life contains every great thing,
and contains it in rich abundance
But the evil has come with the
good, and much fine gold has
been corroded. With riches has
come inexcusable waste. We have
squandered great part of what
We might have used, and have not
stopped to conserve the exceeding
bounty of nature, without which
our genius for enterprise would
have been worthless and impo-
tent, scorning to be careful,
shamefully prodigal as well as adj
mirably efficient. We have been
proud of our Industrial achieve
ments, but we have not hitherto
stopped thoughtfully enough to
count the human cost, the cost of
lives snuffed out, of energies
overtaxed and broken, the fearful
physical and spiritual cost to the
men and women and children
upon whom the dead weight and
burden of 1t all has fallen pitiless-
ly the years through. The groans
and agony of it all had not yet
reached our ears, the solemn,
moving undertone of our life,
coming up out of the mines and
factories and out of every home
where the struggle had its init
mate and familiar seat. With the
great government went many
deep secret things which we too
long delayed to look into and
scrutinize with candid, fearless
eyes. The great government we
loved has too often been made use
of for private and selfish purposes
and those who used it had forgot
ten the people.
At last vision has been
vouchsafed US Of our life as a
whole. We see the bad with the
good, the debased and decadent
with the sound and vital. With
this vision we approach new af-
fairs. Our duty is to clense, to
reconsider, to restore, to correct
the evil without impairing the
good, to purify and humanize
every process of our common life
without weakening or sentimen,
talizing 1t. There has been some
thing crude and heartiess and
unfeeling in our haste to succeed
and be great. Our thought has
been Let every man look out for
himself, let every generation looa
Tout for ITSELF" while we reared
giant machinery which made i

impossible that any but those who
stood at the levers of control
should have a chance to look out
for themselves. We had not for
gotten our morals. We remem-
bered we'll enough that we had set
up a policy which was meant to
serve the humblest as we'll as the
most powerful, with an eye single
to the standards of justice and
fair play, and remembered it with
pride. But We were very heed
less and in a hurry to be great.
We have come now to the sober
second thought. The scales of
heedlessness have fallen from our
eyes. We have made up our
minds to square every process of
our national life again with the
standards We so proudly set up
at the beginning and have always
carried at our hearts. Our work
Is a work of restoration.
We have itemized with some
degree of particularly the things
that ought to be altered and here
are some of the chief items: A
tariff which cuts us off from our
proper part in the commerce of
the world, violates the just princi-
pies of taxation, and makes the
government a facile instrument in
the hands of private interests;
a banking and currency system
based upon the necessity of the
government to sell it's bonds fifty
years ago and perfectly adapted
to concentrating cash and restrict
ing credits; an industrial system
which, take 1t on all its sides,
financial as we'll as administra-
tive, holds capital in leading
strings, restricts the liberties and
limits the opportunities of labor,
and exploits without renewing or
conserving the natural resources
of the country; body of agricul-
tural activities never yet given
the efficiency of great business
undertakings or served as it
should be through the instrument
tality of science taken directly to
the farm, or afforded the facili-
ties of credit best suited to its
practical needs; watercourses I'M
developed, waste places unre-
claimed, forests INTENDED, fast
disappearing without plan or
prospect of renewal, unregarded
waste heaps at every mine. We
have studied as perhaps no other
nation has the most effective
means of production, but We have
not studied cost or economy as
We should either as organizers OF
industry, as statesmen, or as In
dividuals.
Nor have. we studied and per-
fected the means by which gov
eminent may be put at the SER
vice of humanity, in safeguarding
the health OF the nation, the
health of its men and its women
and its children, as well as their
rights In the struggle for exist
enee. This is no sentimental
duty. The firm basis OF govern
ment is justice. not pity. These
are matters of Justice. There

The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1913-03-04

from the consequences of great
industrial and social processes
which they cannot alter, control,
or singly cope with. Society must
see to it that it does not itself
crush or weaken or damage it's
own constituent parts. The first
duty of law is to keep sound the
society it serves. Sanitary laws,
pure food laws, and laws determ-
lining conditions of labor which in
dividuals are powerless to de-
termine for themselves are init
mate parts of the very business
of justice and legal efficiency.
These are some of the things
we ought to do, and not leave the
others undone, the old-fashioned,
never-to-be-neglected, fundamen-
tai safeguarding of property and
of individual right. This Is the
high enterprise of the new day;
to lift everything that concerns
our life as a nation to the light
that shines from the hearthfire of
every mans conscience and vision
of the right. 1t is inconeeivable
that we should do this as parti-
sans; it is inconceivable we
should do 1t in ignorance of the
facts as they are or in blind haste.
We shall restore, not destroy. We
shall deal with our economic sys-
tenn as it is and as it may be mod
flied, not as it might be If we had
clean sheet of paper to write
upon; and step by step we shall
make it what 1t should be, in the
spirit of those who question their
own wisdom and seek counsel and
knowledge, not shallow self-satis-
faction or the excitement of ex-
cursions whittier they cannot tell.
Justice, and only justice, shall al
ways be our motto.
And yet it will be no cool pro-
cess of mere science. The nation
has been deeply stirred, stirred by
a solemn passion, stirred by the
knowledge of wrong, of ideals
lost, of government too often de-
bauched and made an instrument
of evil. The feelings with which
we face this new age of right and
opportunity sweep across our
heart-strings like some air out of
Gods own presence, where jus
tice and mercy are reconciled and
the judge and the brother are
one. We know our task to be
no mere task of politics but a
task which shall search aus
through and through, whetherowe
be able to understand our time
and the need of our people whetb-
er we be indeed their spokesman
and interpreters, whether we have
the pure heart to comprehend and
the rectified will to choose our
high course of action.
