cast. The prediction reads unsettled
weather tonight and Tuesday, with
probably rain or snow Tuesday and
colder. Strong winds will prevail.
The high pressure area which has
caused such low temperatures for the
past few days has moved rapidly

rise in temperature in the northwest,
due to the approach of low area
from the Canadian northwest. This
area was central this morning over

(Associated Press)

Washington, March 5.-President
Wilson's inaugural address follows:
my fellow citizens:
"The four years which have elapsed
since last | stood in this place, have
been crowded with counsel and action
of the most vital interest and conse
quence. Perhaps, no equal period in
our history has been so fruitful of i'm.
pOrtant reforms in our economic and
industrial life or so full of significant
changes in the spirit and purpose of
our political actions. We have sought
very thoughtfully to set our house in
order, correct the grosser errors and
abuses of our industrial life, liberate
and quicken the processes of our ma
tiOnal genius and energy and lift our
politics to broader view of the peo-
pies essential interest.
Speaks For Itself.
It is a record of singular variety
and singular distinction. But shall
not attempt to review it.. 1t speaks
for itself and will be of increasing in
fluence as the years go by. This is
not the time for retrospect. 1t is
time, rather, to speak our thoughts
and purposes, concerning the present
and the immediate future. Although
we have centered counsel and actions
with such unusual concentration and
success upon the great problem of
domestic legislation to which we ad-
dressed ourselves four years ago,
other matters have more and mbre
forced themselves upon our attention,
matters lying outside our own life as
q nation and over which we have no
control, but which, despite our wish
to keep free of them, have drawn us
more and more irresistably into their
own current and influence.
Impossible to Avoid Them.
1T is impossible to avoid them.
They have affected the life of the
world. They have shaken men every.
where with a passion and an appre-
hension they never knew before. 1t
has been hard to preserve calm coun-
sci; while the thought of our people
swayed this way and that under our
influence, we are composite and
cosmopolitan people. We are of the
blood of all the nations that are at
war. The current Of our thought, as
we'll ~ tie euFeeat OF our trade, runs
