The procession reached the Capitol without
incident. Lincoln walked down the aisle of
the House leaning on the arm Of his oldest
friend in Washington, Senator Baker Of Ore
gon A few months later Baker was killed at
Balls Buff at the head Of his regiment. They
came out on the east portico. Rather faint
cheers followed Bakers introduction. Lincoln
held in his hands his gold-headed cane and
his tall silk hat He drew the manuscript Of
his address from his pocket and laid the cane
on the table. He could find no place to put
the hat and continued to hold it. His old
enemy, Stephen A. Douglas. was on the plat
form Noting Lincoln's predicament, he stepped
forward and took the hat, which he held
through the address. There were 5000 dancers
at the inaugural ball that night. But WASH

mood for dancing. Its heart was across the

Four years later the Inauguration was .
simple and solemn affair. The hospitals Of
Washington we're filled with wounded. The
cots Of sick men filled the aisles Of the churches.
BY . curious coincidence the sun broke through
the clouds of the somber, drizzly. muddy day
as Lincoln stepped on the platform. He de-
hvered one Of those addresses such as auto
maticaly become a part Of history. The tide
of war had cast up village tailor to be Vice
President with Lincoln. Andrew johnson suf-
fered chill on the way to the Capitol. He
asked an attendant in the Vice Presidents
room for some whisky. He drank two glasses.
The Senate listened in amazement at the dis
connected, incoherent speech he delivered The
whole inaugural ceremony was thrown off
schedule.
On March 4. 1869, the city was filled with
men in slightly faded blue uniforms On this
gray day, full of rain and vaporous mists was
an Inauguration which surpassed any that had
gone before. The veterans of the Civil War
had come back to see their old battle leader,
Grant made President. The sides Of the Ave-
nue. were packed to their capacity. Roof tops
were black with spectators. Second and third
story windows rented at from s25 to $50. Grant
looked worn and sad as he drove to the Capt.
tol, seated beside President Johnson in an open
carriage drawn by four horses. He waved his
hand respectfully in acknowledgment Of cheers.

DISABLED VET
OUGHT TOGET
BILLFOLD BACK

Too game to make any complaint
himself, friends of Clair A. Ritter,
known to many Ell Centrans as
Bud" Ritter, today advised The
Press that Bud" lost a billfold on
Main street Tuesday, and whoever
found it has not seen fit to return
it.
Badly crippled as a result of his
war services, and confined to a
wheelchair, Bud" has made many
friends by his cheerfulness, despite
his condition, and his refusal to be
beaten by adversely.
His billfold contained $35, a con-
siderable sum to anyone these days
and very substantial one to Bud
His name also was in the billfold.
Whoever found II, apparently
didn't know just who Bud" Ritter
is. 1t is hard to believe that if they
did they would fail to return it to
him, even though sorely tempted to
keep it.
If the person who found it has
been hesitating, he probably will
come through" when he learns
that Bud" is a disabled vet. The
billfold can be returned TO him at
the Sorlei apartments. If the finder
does not care to do this he can
mail or bring it to The Press office
no questions will be asked and no
accusations made
Let's get that billfold and the
money back to Bud"

SCHOOL BOARD
SEEKS LOWER
WATER RATES

Appearing before the city coun-
Gil at its session last night, the en-
tire elementary school board enter
ed its protest, individually and COL
lectively, against the rates charged
the schools for the use of city wa
ter and requested that an adjust
ment be made.
The board took the attitude that
the school lawns should be treated
as part of the city's park system
and would like to have them treat
ed by the city just as they treat the
city parks in the matter of the
use of water for their uptxeep.
After much discussion the coun-
Gil decided that committee be ap-
pointed consisting of the water
commissioner, Mayor Rice, and the
city engineer, Philip knights, to
study this question and report its
recommendations to the council at
its next regular meeting.
A letter from the Hopping Foun-
dry, Pasadena, stating that this
company had an available contrac-
tor who would build a new sewer
system for the city and take city
bonds in payment for the same
was read to the board and was held
over for further consideration.
The board then considered a let
ter from the California Utilities
This communication asked the
council to consider the proposals Of
state senate constitutional amend.
ment No. 46, which, if passed, il
was claimed, would destroy the
powers of local governing boards
and would separate the now uni
fled system of government and be-
come an entering wedge to railroad
commission control over municipal
tiles. Attention was also called to
senate bills No. 70 and No. 80
which, according to the same letter
would force the purchase of exist
ing private water companies before
the public could operate their pub
licly owned systems and was the
beginning of broad principle that
private rights were superior to pub
lie rights.
The city clerk was directed to
send kilograms to State Senator
Hulse and Assemblyman Robinson
saying that the council passed q
resolution disappearing these mea-
sures.
The usual warrants were approx
ed and routine business attended
to. after which the council adjour-
ned until this morning to consider
the beer question.

CHAMBER WILL
FIGHT To KEEP
ROAD TRAVEL

In order to determine what course
those interested in tourist traffic
through Ell Centre will take to keep
the flow of tourists through this
community, a meeting has been
called by the Ell Centro Chamber
OF Commerce to be held Friday,
April at 7:30 o'clock at chamber
of commerce headquarters. All
hotel, motor court and auto court
owners, restaurant, garage and SER
vice station operators and repre-
sentatives of the oil companies have
been asked to attend this meeting
and persons in any line of business
( who are interested in the increase
OF tourist traffic are urged to at
tend.
With the completion of compet-
ing highways into California the
flow of traffic over Highway u S.
30, through Ell Centro, is threaten
ed and chamber directors state it
is necessary for Ell Centro and I'M
perial Valley to make an effort to
publicize and popularize this route
i II 1t is desired to have motorists
pass through this community. For
this reason it was decided to call q
meeting of representative of all
lines of activity interested directly
in the tourist business in order that
plans may be worked out as to how
best to hold the tourist traffic on
this highway.

important one," stated w. A. Ton
dro, president of the El Centre
chamber, today. statistics show
| that 100000 tourists came into
California last year and these visit
ors spent $200,0O0,0OO. One quarter
of these entered California at the
Yuma gateway but, with the COM
petition of other highways in Cali
fornia and Arizona it is found that
the number of cars entering over
the southern route is diminishing
We have figures which show thai
100000 tourists entered California
through Yuma in 1881. This means
that these 250,000 tourists passed
through Ell Centre. Our problem is
to keep this traffic flowing through
this city and to make this commun-
ity attractive enough that these
motorists will stop here, even il
only for a few hours. If we coulc
get each tourist to spend even 81
cents here the annual income tt
the community would be SIPS, ,O00.'
