In dealing with our present embarrassing situation, as related to this subject, we will be wise if we'temper our confidence and faith in our national strength and resources with frank concession that even these will not permit us to defy with impunity the inexorable laws of finance and trade. At the same time, in our efforts to adjust the differences of opinion, we should be free from_intolerance or passion, and our judgments should be unmoved by alluring Pphrases and unvexed by selfish interests. Iam confident that such approach to the the subject will result in prudent and effect- ive remedial legislation. In the mean time. so far as the exccutive branch of the government can _intervene with any of the powers with which it is vested, they will not be withheld when their exerciso is deemed necessary to maintain our national credit or avert” financial ais aster.

The verdict of our voters, which con demned the injury of maintaining protection for protection’s sitke, enjoius upon the peo- ple's servants the duty of exposing and de- stroying the brood of ‘kindred evils, which are the unwholesome progeny of paternal ism. This is the bane of republican institu- tions and a coustant peril of a4 government by the people. 1t degrades to the purposes of wity eraft the plan of rule which our fathers established and bequeathed to us as the object of our love and veneration. It perverts the patriotic sentiment of our country and mpts the people to a mtiful” caleulation of sordid gain to be derived from their government's maintenance. It undermines the self-reli- ance of our people and substitutes in its lace dependence upon governmental favor tism. It stifles the spirit of true Ameri ism; it stupefies every ennobling tra American_citizenship, ~Lessons of paternal- ism ought to be unlearned and the better lesson taught that while the people should patriotically and cheerfully support their government its functions do not anclude the support of the people. The ac- ceptance of this principlo leads to the refusal of bounties and subsidies, which burden the | labor and the thrift of a portion of our citizens to aid ill-advised or languishing en- terprises in which they have no concern. It leads also to the chalienge of wild, reckless pension enditure, which overleaps the bounds of grateful recognition of patrio vice and prostitutes to vicious usc people’s prompt and generous impulse to aid those disabled in their countrys defense. Every thoughtful American must realize the importance of checking at its beginning any tendency, in public or private station, to gard frugality and economy as virvues which we may safely outgrow. Toleration of this idea results in a waste of the people's money by their chosen servants and_encourages prodigality and extravagance in the home life of our countrymen. Necessity Should Limit Under our scheme of government the waste of public money is a crime against the citizen, and the contémpt of our people for economy and frugality in their personal af- fairs deplorably saps the strength and sturdiness of our national acter. Itis a plain dictate of hones good_government that public expenditures should be limited by public necessity and that, this should be measured by rules of strict economy ; and it is equally clear that frugality among the people is the best Fuariaty ot contented strong support of free institution: Civil Service Retorm, One mode of misappropriation of public funds is avoided when appointments to office, instead of being rewards of partisan activity, aro awarded to those whose efii- clency promises a fair return of work for the compensation paid them. To secure fitness and competency of appointees to office and remove from political action the demoralizing madness for spoils, civil vice reform has found a place in our publ policy and law: The benefits already ained through this instrumentality and the urther usefulness it promises entitle it to the hearty subport and encouragement of all who desire to see our public service well performed, or who hope for the elevation of political sentiment and the purification of political methods. it at the Trusts. of immense aggrogations of kindred enterprises and combinations of business interests, formed for the purpose of limiting the production and fixing price is inconsistent with the fair field which ought to be open to every independent ac- tivity. Legitimate strife in business should 1ot be superseded by enforced concessions to the demands of combinations that have the power to destroy; nor should the people to » served lose the benefit of the cheapness which usually results from wholesome com- tition. These aggregations and com- inations frequently — constitute con- spiracies against the interests of the people and in all their phases they are unnatural and ovposed to our American | sense of fairness. To any extent they can be reached and restrained by federal power the general government should relieve our citizens from their interference and exac- tions. Loyalty to the principles upon which our goverament rests positively demands that that equality before the law which it guaran- tees every citizen should be justly and in good faith conceded in all parts of the land, The enjoyment of this right follows the badge of citizenship wherover found, and, unimpaired by race or color, it appeals for recognition to American manliness and fairness, Our relations with Indians located within our borders impose upon us responsibilities we cannot escape, Humanity and consist ency requires us to treat them with for bearance, and in our dealings with them to honestly and considerately regard their rights and intevests. Every offort should be made to lead them through the paths of civilization and education to self-supporting and independent citizenship. In the meantime, as the nation’s wards, they should be promptly defended agdinst the cupidity of designing men and shielded from every influence or temptation that retards their advancement.

Cleveland's Delivery. The chief feature about the inaugu the clear, steady and excellent enunciation with which it was delivered and the absolute absence of any gesture. Mr. Cleveland gave no other emphasis to his remarks than_that derived from the emphatic tone and det mined nod of the head with which he at times stated some of the more forcible pass- ages of his oration. He spoke without notes and turned from one part of the assembled crowd to the other, sometimes addressing the multitude in front of the stand, and again turning to the side and addressing himself more particularly to the people on the stand In the confusion caused by the crowding. lack of observance of the arrancements made, and the wind, it was impossible for the persons within forty feet of Mr. Cleve- land to follow his remarks from boginning toend. The people on the piaza immediately in front could hear a part of the salicnt fea tures, and whenever they signified by cheers approval of special parts of it, vhe demonstrations were taken up by persons further removed who were unaware of ex actly what had been said. His reference to urrency question provoked consider: s, but the loudest approval was given taviff section of his remarks. he president began the delivery of his address about 1:30 o'clock and it occupied twenty-five minutes, Oath of Ofiice Administered. At the conclusion of his remarks, Mr. Cleveland turned around to the chief justice who was attired in the robes of his oftice, to take the oath prescribed by the constitution. Chief Jastice I"uller and the other persons sident removed their hats and, with bared heads, listened to the taking of the oath of ofice, which was pronounced by Chief Justice Fuller in a clear voice, Mr. Cleveland assenting to it by bowing his head and kissing the bible. “The oath taken by the president is what is known as the constitutional oath, and reads as folloy 1.do solemnly swear that T will fait wte the office of president of the Uni tes and will, 1o the best of my ability, pre serve, protectand defend the constitution of the United States, The bible used in the ceremony was given President Cleveland by his mother forty ine y go.

Dickinson stating that it was Mr. Cleveland's wish that the chief justice use the book in today's ceremonies. A new vible had been purchased for the oc- casion, as had been done eight years ago for presentation to the president, but of course it was not used after Mr. Cleveland had sig- nified his preference for the use of his mother's gift.

After lunch a few minutes were spent in chatting, and then Mr. Cleveland and M. Harrison emerged from the room.

Colonel Lamont was followed in a few minutes by Mr. Thurber. the new private secretary, and the two were soon engaged in a conference over the duties of the oflice in the room recently occupied by their respective successors and prede cessor, Major Halford.

Half an hour later Mrs. Lamont with party of friends and Mrs. Stevenson drove up and were received in the room by Mr. and Mrs. McKee. They were followed almost immediately by Mrs. Cleveland, who was greeted in the back raom by the recent mis- tress of the white house which she then turned over to her who is, for four years, to preside over its destinies. In a few minutes President Cleveland and Mr. Harrison, riding in the latter’s carriage, drove under the portico after passing the re- viewing stand. They were met on the upper step by Colonel Berret und arm in arm walked through the door.

He wa soon followed by Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Stevenson, Mrs. Lamont and the other ladies who had been with the presidential party all day. They came at a moment when the crowd was in- terested in the passage of troops and their presence was unnoticed. As the president ared before the multitude and while the s were yet sounding in his honor, an aid of the grand marshal stationed opposite the reviewing stand galloped at full speed down_Pennsylvania avenue and gave the signal for the march to be resumed. The bugle sounded forward march, the officers repeating the command, and the line of march was again taken up from the point where the head of the column had halted opposite the Treasury department. Coming of the Purade. ‘The great crowds about the white house were enthusiastic from the beginning and kept time with feet and hands to the music of the bands in an endeavor to keep warm and get rid of surplus hilarity. As General Martin T.

A crowd of humanity, surging like a sea, occupied every available spot of ground in the vicinity, and as the president made his appearance another cheer signaled his presence and was taken up and re-echoed down the avenues and byways of a troubled ocean. With head erect and with his impassive features facing the procession, President Cleveluna reviewed the military, civie and political organizations that made up the line of march Greater Than Ever Before, The parade of today was great bers and more imposing in military and civic display than that of any previous inaugura tion. General Martin . McMahon of New York,the grand marshal,carried out in the or- ganization of the procession the same admira- ble methods of assembling his forces which made his management of the Columbian ade in New York city last October so ful. With military sagacity, he rec- ognized the fact that it takes many hours to 40,000 to 50,000 men past a mven point, even under the most favorable circum- tunces of broad and well paved strects, and instead of ordering all the organized bodies to be ready to fall inat one and the same time he allowed suffcient intervals be- tween the hours of assembling to prevent, as tar as possible, fatiguing waits, and so ar- ranged the assembling places on con- tiguous side streets that the men were able to form and drop into line without delay and without crossing the line of march, In all these mutters he was adly assisted by his adjutant general, Colonel H. €. Corbin, United States army. For more than half a day the city looked like a vast military camp, the almost intermin- able marching past of the regulars, and the well equipped military forces of the states being broken in_upon by the visiting governorsin. their ciy costumes, riding past in the order that their states were ad- witted into the union, and ac tiieir brilliantly uniformed staffs, Then, with an intervening jof Grand Army and union veterans, cawo yhe civie half of the parade, fully as numerous and interesting as the military display.

The popular democrat, twice governorof the Keystone state and recently himself prominently dis- ‘ussed as a presidential candidate, awoke all the enthusiasm of the triumphant democ- racy and was frequently compelled to turn and bow an acknowledgment to the ovations he received. Following close behind him was one who failed to awaken the popular enthusiasm of his chief, but who was the object of almost as much public attention, It was Major General George R.
