GETTING READY FOR MORROW'S
INAUGURATION.

Although the inauguration of Gov

Lieuteant Governor-elect Thruston
Ballard will be strictly Republican
affair, Democrats have not been ex-
cluded by any means.
The Republicans have invited
Mayor w. S. Roccon, Chief of Police

Scott Thompson, President of the
Chamber of Commerce; j. Sweigart
Taylor, John Noel, President of the
Farmers Deposit Bank; Circuit
Judge Robert l.. Stout and Major c.
w. Longmire, all Democrats, to &C
sist in the arrangements for the in
auguration.
On account of the destruction of
the largest hotel in Frankfort by
fire two years ago it is feared that
the impression might prevail that
Frankfort cannot accommodate
the large Inauguration day crowd.
If such an impression does prevail
it must be corrected, as those in
charge of the affair say, for there are
ample accommodations in the hotels
and private homes that will be
thrown open to accommodate even
much larger inauguration day
crowds than visited in the past.
The Republicans expect the crowd
this year to establish a new record
in point of attendance.
