INAUGURATION DAY DATE.

Advocates for a change in the date
Of inaugurating the president OF the
United States have seized upon the
recent snow storms as q strong argu-
ment In favor OF the proposition. This
time OF year there Is always agitation
OF this subject which comes 10 naught.
Just why the date should not be
changed to some part OF the year when
!. the weather would be more propitious.
no good reason has been advanced.
There perhaps IS no more unsettled
and generally chaotic state OF weather
IN the entire cycle OF seasons than that
staged around the first OF March.
~ The inauguration OF a president is
bound TO be and should be continued
as a ceremony OF ostentatious i'm
portance. Thousands usually partici-
pate in these exercises. which are held
for the most part in the open afr. So.-
diers and civilians are exposed TO the
incIemency OF the weather and IL
