WASHINGTON. ID. c., March A.
THIS was a day Of heart-breakings,
as well as of JOY. Inauguration day
60 the Washington official world is
an even of epochal significance. Il
is the quadrennial transition period
when the old order gives way 20 the
new. II brings both good bycs and
welcomes Iuexpressible sadness at
tends the many leave-takings. Fur
tive tears mingle with happy greet
ings 10 the newcomers. 1t is "A case
Of The king is dead long live the
king"
The present Inauguration is al
most cataclysmal in the way il has
disjoined Washington society. A
complete shift Of personnel in all the
important offices, following eight
years OF continuous control by one
party. means almost a total uproot-
ing OF officialdom. Many Of the
important officials have not waited
TO be turned out by the toe OF the
presidential boot but have fore
handedly resigned and moving vans
have been busy for weeks carting
family belongings to the railroad
stations.
Plans of Cabinet.
Today was the day. however. when
the umbilical cord was officially cut
And today the skies wept.
Naturally there is keen interest -
the future plans of members Of the
Wilson cabinet.
Secretary Of state and Mrs. Balm
bridge Colby left Washington today
for New York, where Mr.. Colby will
re-enter the practice Of law. There
is a strong impression here that as
good a lawyer and incompatible am
orator as Mr.. Colby viii not lack

are closing their house here and will
leave Saturday for Cleveland whero
Mr.. Baker viii be at his law office
