Had |, and who personally witnessed every Presidential inauguration from Jef- ferson’s second to that of the second Harrison, inclusive, a period of eighty-eight years. During that time there were twenty-two inaugura- tions, all but five that ever occurred. The most remarkable general fact brought out by this reminiscence is the outgrowth of rudeness. It is generally understood that the inaugurations, first and second, of Washington, as of his immediate successor, John Adams, were marked by dignity and agreater degree of formality than any subsequent events of the kind. Whea Jefferson came in he made a point of simplicity. There were, it would seem from these remiftiscences, no special features later until John |Quincy Adams came to as- sume the office of president. le was interrupted in the delivery of his {inaugural address by brutal rudeness, such as no Ameri- can audience of this generation would think of indulging in. Then for three consecutive inaugurations the rudeness was kept up, only it was jubilation, instead of indignation. Even the ladies wore hickory nut or- naments at the reception. There was nothing really vicious in all those outbursts, They were simply de- velopments of the rough and ready stage of national life. Of all our inaugurations one stands out in sharp contrast to the rest in a far more important particular, When Abrahan Lincoln took the reins of government, thirty-six years ago, in- stead of the ordinary partisan glori- fication Jthere were fear avd trem- bling. ‘he stoutest hearts and the staunchest Republicans looked to the future with apprehension. There was no attempt to disguise the seri- ousness of the situation, Four years later the war was still on, but every- body felt that the end was near. It is safe to say that the jubilation over McKinley’s inauguration will not be confined to the Republicans. From a strictly party point of view, the Democrats may well retire to a cave of gloom, but the better times which the great inauguration of this week foreshadows concern all alike, wholly irrespective of party. Al- ready the ‘‘earnest of things hoped for’’ has materialized, The news of the day reports several instances point. There may be some delay in passing a protective tariff bill, but the inauguration of William McKin- lew means its enactment at the very earliest practicable day WASHINGTON LETTER. that the administration has never taken congress entirely into its confi- | dence as to its relations with Spain and as to its official information,! | nothing but the fact that the admin- istration will retire this week pre- vents some vigorous action on the part of congress that would make things warm for Cleveland and Olney. It would naturally be supposed that Olney would have given Senator Sherman, who is so soon to sacceed him as secretary of state, all the in- formation in his possession, but it is known that he has not done so. On the contrary, he told Senator Sher- man that there was no important news from Cuba, when it is known that he had in his possession a com- munication from Consul Gen. Lee that was of the utmost. importance. It is difficult to account for Olne pee! action in this matter, which has revived much -of the ugly talk about his personal relations with the Spanish minister, which was so pre- valent some time ago, Mr. T. S. Ellison, of Minnesota, called upon an official of the Post Office Department, who is a personal friend, to get some idea of the places outside of the civil service rules in that department, for a friend at his home who has official aspirations. In Mr. Ellison’s own words, this is what occurred after he had greeted his friend and told the nature of his errand: ‘He told me to get a sheet of paper and write down the places that the law excluded as he called them off. I got a sheet of foolscap, and in my innocence imagined that a rather big job lay in front of me. rst,’ said he, ‘the Postmaster neral and a private secretary, and then four Assistant Postmaster Gen- erals.’ Here hecame to a pretty long stop, and thinking that he was waiting on me, I indicated my readi- ness {to proceed. ‘That's all,’ he said. ‘Holy smoke! You can't mean it! What! Only six places in one of the biggest departments in Washington outside of the civil ser- vice rules?’ But he did mean it,and recited nothing but the cold facts, as J found upon the verification of his statement, '’ As a rule Republicans in Congress think the address issued this week by the Senators and Representatives who bolted the St. Louis convention would better have been left unissued, The signers of it—among them is Senator Jones, of Nevada, §§who at the Jast session of Congress an- nounced that he had lett the Repub- lican party and become a Populist— put forth the claim that they are still Republicans, although they bolted the Republican National Convention and at the present session of Con- gress declined an invitation to enter the Republican caucus, and agkother Republicans to sustain them by join- ing in the organization of a silver Repubhean party, ‘This address was signed by six Senators and four Representatives, Visitors to previous inaugurations have critised unfavorably the failure to decorate the public buildings when money is so la¥ish) deco- rate private buildin public buildings are to be hant ly decorated apd algo illuminate the night of March 4, as they 1 not been since the capture of mond in 1865, The first member of resident MeKinioy's gabinet to arive in Washington was Hon, jafies A.
