THE INAUGURATION

A great democratic nation is rep
resented in Washington today by
citizens of every State in the Union,
to witness the induction into office Of
a Chief Executive elected by the
votes of the people. No other nation
can furnish quite such spectacle. 1t
serves anew to remind US that the
United States are indeed the States
United, and that the nation is, as it
was planned to be by its founders,
the great example and incentive to
democracy in the world.
It is an inspiring occasion. The
inaugural address delivered at the
front of the Capitol, the long parade
down the famous Avenue past the re-
viewing stands, the cheering thou
sands on and above the sidewalks all
tend to the proclamation of national
Solidarity. Nevertheless, there is a
deep UNDERGONE of solemnity about
the Inauguration today. During the
long debate in the Senate, sober
minded members of that body pro-
claimed again and again that we had
been brought face to face with war,
and that the long-cherished dream of
our immunity from participation in
the European struggle was ended.
The solemn words of the President,
that the country is in danger, have
deepened that impression. Woodrow
Wilson's first term was concerned
mainly with domestic problems; his
second term must be occupied with
the problems of war and those grow
ing out of the war.
The ceremony today is historically
akin to Lincoln's first inauguration.
Then the Union had been dismem-
bered, Northern pacifists were con-
tending that the erring sisters should
depart in peace, and as yet there
was no war. The clash finally came
over a comparatively small issue, the
question of provisioning the garrison
at Fort Sumter, whose lombard
ment, while the most magnificent
waste of powder fired in anger in the
worlds history, walked the patriotism
of those who put the nation first in
their loyal affections. So Lincoln's
Administration was a period Of
bloody war which proved forever
thar this nation was one and indi-
visible.
So today, come war or peace, the
nation is of one mind, of one heart.
1t acknowledges its allegiance to au-
thority duly constituted, and its will
ingness to follow any path marked
out for it to the end. Whatever sac
rifces it may be called upon to make.
it rejoices that they are made for
the extension and perpetuity of the
principles on which it was founded,
until democracy, whirlwind-like,
shall envelop the whole world"

THE NEW SENATORS

Sixteen new Senators take the oath
Of office today. Some of them are
already well known in Washington
but the most of them have their
records to make. 1t is tremendous
era in the worlds history in which
they are called upon to serve their
country.
Gov. Park Trammell, of Florida,
succeeds Senator Bryan. He has
made progressive governor of the
land of flowers after a long career
in the legislature, and is a man of
considerable ability as a speaker. He
will support progressive measures
more frequently than his predecessor
has done.
The new Senator from New Mexi-
co, succeeding Catron, has proved his
mettle by overcoming the handicap
of being named Andrieus Aristieus
Jones. He has long been the leader
of the Democratic party in his State,
and was holding an important Fed
eral office when elected to the Sem
ate. He was born in Tennessee and
educated in Indiana.
There will still be Sutherland in
the Senate, in spite of the retirement
of the Senator from Utah. Howard
Sutherland, Republican from West
Virginia, succeeds Chiffon, Democrat.
He was born and reared in Missouri,
