THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS
(i!i wing Picture of Condition of Coun
try-Relations of United States With
Cuba Defined—Optiihistie Outlook as
to Philippines.
Washington, March 4.—William Mc
Kinley of Ohio today was inducted into
the presidential office, being the eighth
in the illustrious line of presidents of
the united States thus honored by the
American people with the second term.
Simultaneously Theodore Roosevelt of
New York became vice president of the
United States.
Alter taking the oath of office, the
president delivered Ins inaugural ad
dress, which follows;
Mv Fellow Citizens: When we as
sembled here on March 4, 1897, there
was gr.-ut anxiety with regard to oar
currency and credit. None exists now.
Then our treasury receipts were inade
quate to meet the current obligations or
tne government. Now they are sufii
cieut for all public needs, and we have
a surplus instead of a deficit. Then I
felt constrained to convene the congress
in extraordinary session to devise reve
nue.- to pay the ordinary expenses of
the government. Now I have the satis
faction to announce that the congress
just closed has reduced taxation in the
•um of $41,000,000. Then there was a
deep solicitude because of the iong de
pression of our manufacturing, mining,
agricultural and mercantile industries
and the consequent distress of our labor
ing population. Now every avenue of
production is crowded with activity,
labor is well employed and American
j .^--vetoes unu go x'i m'lifkeis at come ann
I abroad. Our diversified productions,
| however, are increasing in such unprece
1 dented volume as to admonish us of ihe
| necessity of still further enlarging our
\ foreign markets by broader commercial
j relations. For this purpose reciprocal
trade relations with other nations should
in liberal spirit be carefully cultivated
and promoted.
Our Foreign Relations.
Four years ago we stood on the brink
of war without the people knowing it
and without any preparation or effort at
preparation for the impending peril. I
did all that in honor could be done to
avert the war, but without avail. It
became inevitable, and the congress, at
its first regular session, without party
division, provided money in anticipa
tion of the crisis and in preparation to
meet it. It came. The result was sig
nally favorable to American arms and
in the highest degree honorable to the
government. It imposed upon us obli
gations from which we cannot escape
and from which it would be dishonor
able to seek to escape. We are now at
peace with the world, and it is my fer
vent prayer that if differences arise
between us and other powers they may
be settled by peaceful arbitration and
that hereafter we may be spared the
horrors of war.
Second Term.
Entrusted by the people for a second
time with the office of president, I enter
noon its administration appreciating the
great responsibilities which attach to
this renewed honor and commission,
promising unreserved devotion on my
part to their faithful discharge aid rev
erently invoking for my guidance the
direction and favor of Almighty God.
I should shrink from the duties this day
assumed if I did not feel that in their
performance I should have the co opera-

tion ofjho wise and patriotic men of all
parties. It encourages me for the great
task which I now undertake to believe
that those who voluntarily committed
to ms the trust imposed upon the chief
executive of the republic will give tome
generous support to my duties to “pre
serve and defend the constitution of the
United States,” and “to see that the
laws be fully executed. ” The national
purpose is indicated through a national
election: It is the constitutional method
of ascertaining the public will. When
once it is registered it is a law to iw ail,
and faithful observance should follow
its decrees.
“Hope 31aketli Not Aslmmed.”
The prophets of evil were not the
builders of the republic, nor in its crisis
since have they saved or served it. The
faith of the fathers was a mighty force
in its creation and the faith of their de
scendants has wrought its progress and
furnished its defenders. They are ob
structionists who despair and who
would destroy confidence in the ability
of our people to solve wisely and for
civilization the mighty problems resting
upon them. The American people, in
trenched in freedom at home, take their
love for it with them wherever they go,
and thev reject as mistaken and uu-
worthv the doctrine that we lose our
own liberties by securing the enduring
foundations of liberty to others. Oar
institutions will not deteriorate by ex
tension and our sense of justice will not
abate under tropic suns in distant seas.
As heretofore, so hereafter will the na
tion demonstrate its fitness to- adminis

The peace which we are pledged tc
leave to the Cuban people must carry
with it the guarantees of permanence.
We become sponsors for the pacification
of the island, and we remain account
able to the Cubans, no less than to our
own country and people, for the recon
struction of Cuba as a free common
wealth, on abiding foundations of right,
justice, liberty and assured order. Our
enfranchisement of the people will not
be completed until free Cuba shall “be
a reality, not a name; a perfect entity,
not a hasty experiment bearing within
itself the elements of failure.”
The Philippine islands.
While the treaty of peace with Spain
was ratified on Feb. G, 1899, and ratifi
cations were exchanged nearly two years
ago, the congress has indicated no form
of government for the Philippine is
lands. It has, however, provided an
army to enable the executive to suppress
insurrection, restore peace, give security
to the inhabitants and establish the
authority of tne United States through
out the archipelago. It has authorized
the organization of native troops as
auxiliary to the regular force. If has
been advised frome time to time of the
acts of the military and naval
officers in the island, of my action in
appointing civil commisisous, of the in
structions with which they were
charged, of their duties and powers, of
their recommendations, and of the sev
eral acts under executive commission,
together with the very complete general
information they have submitted.
These reports fully set forth the condi
tions, past and present, in the islands,
and the instructions clearly show the
principles which will guide the execu
tive until the congress shall, as it is re-
thrtiling scenes in China, whiie new to ’ quired to do by the treaty, determine

Relations With Cuba.
We face at this moment a most im- !
portant uuestion—that of the future re- J
"mire occasion by the liana ana make
tne bounds of freedom wider yet.”
If there are those among us who
would make our way more difficult we
must not be disheartened, but the more
earnestly dedicate ourselves to the task
we have rightly entered. The path of
progress is seldom smooth. New things
are often found hard to do. Our fath
ers found them so. We find them so.
They are inconvenient. They cost us
something. But are we not made bet
ter for the effort and sacrifice and are
not those we serve lifted up and blessed?
Opposition Overcome.
We will be consoled, too, with the
fact that opposition has confronted
every movement of the republic from
its opening hour until now, but without
success. The republic has marched on
and on, and its every step has exalted
freedom and humanity. We are under
going tne same ordeal as did our prede
cessors nearly a century ago. We are
following the course they blazed. They
triumphed. Will their successors falter
aud plead organic impotenev in the na
tion? Surely after 125 years of achieve
ment for mankind we will not surren
der our equality with other powers on
matters fundamental and essential to
nationality. With no such purpose was
the nation created. In no such spirit
has it developed its full and independ
ent sovereignty. We adhere to the
principle of equality among ourselves
and by no act of ours will wo assign to
ourselves a subordinate rauk in the fam
ily of nations.
My fellow citizens, the public events
of the past four years have gone into
history. They are too near to justify
recital. Some of them were uuforseen ;
many of them momentous and far-
reaching in their consequences to our
selves aud to our relations with the rest
of the world. The pare which the
United States bore so honorably in the
• Stale of Alabama to Buy the Old
Davis Home.
j Montgomery, Ala., March 2.—A fea-
I ture of yesterday’s session of the gen-
j eral assembly was the passage of the
j much discussed white house bill, carry-
| lug an appropriation for the purchase
and maintenance of the old Jefferson
House here in Montgomery by the sen-
! ate, which will to some extent relieve
| the suspense that has been felt for sev-
| eral days by the friends of the rneas-
aire. There was little opposition, the
vote being 20 to 7, the announcement of
which was greeted by prolonged ap
plause that came frbm the floor of the
senate and from the gallery crowded
with ladies.
Many prominent women of Alabama
have interested themselves in this move
ment and, of course, this interest is
shared by those of sister states.
This relic of the days of the confed
eracy will now be given its proper place
and made an interesting feature of the
capital city.
ALABAMA SOLONS ADJOURN
Appropriations Gut to Kit Condition
of Treasury.
Montgomery, Ala., March 6.—The
general assembly of Alabama adjourned
sine die last night, after a session of 50
working days. It has contained mpre
individual intelligence and perhaps less
collective wisdom than any other assem
bly since reconstruction times.
The governor withdrew his veto from
the Birmingham charter bill aud signed
it. He furthermore vetoed the Mont
gomery charter bill, which had been
irregularly passed, aud also vetoed the
biil which provided for the reprint of
the Alabama supreme court reports.
The bill prorating the appropriations to
fit- the conditions of the treasury was
finally passed, after having been sub
stantially amended, and was signed by
the governor. The bill as amended cuts
about $75,000 out of the appropriations.

lations of the United States with Cuba.
With our near neighbors we must re
main close friends. The declaration of
the purposes of this government in the
resolution of April 20, 1898, must be
made good. Ever since the evacuation
of the island by the army of Spain, the
executive, with all practicable speed,
has been assisting its people in the suc
cessive step3 necessary to the establish
ment of a free and independent govern
ment, prepared to assume and perform
the obligations of international law
which now rest upon the United States
under the treaty of Paris. The conven
tion elected by the people to frame a
-constitution is approaching the conipie
tion of its labors.
The transfer of American control to
the new government is of such great
importance, involving an obligation re
sulting from onr intervention and the
treaty of peace, that I am glad to be ad
vised bv the recent act of congress of
the policy which the legislative brauch
of the government deems essential to
the best- interests of Cuba and the
United States. The principles which
led to our intervention require that the
fundamental law upon which the new
government rests should be adapted to
secure a government capable of per
forming the duties aud discharging the
functions of a separate nation, of ob
serving its international obligations, of
protecting life and prooerir. insuring

Suits Against Government.
Florence, Ala., March 4.—A suit
has been filed in the circuit court by W.
L. Douglass, Will Jacksou and the
Douglass heirs against the United States
government for possession of lands now
used by the government as a canal and
railroad. The suit was for $5,000 in
each case. The government has had
possession of rhe land for 20 years and
it has never been condemned or paid
for. Several other land holders have
asked for relief by bills in congress
which have been hanging fire for years
without any chance of passing. These
cases are considered tests and if success
ful will lead to other suits being brought.
His Second Trial.
Jasper, Ala., March 2.—The trial of
Oscar Oakley, charged with criminal
ly assaulting his half sister, this be
ing the second charge against him, he
having been convicted on the first charge
and given 15 years in the penitentiary,
is on here. A demurrer was entered in
the second case on the ground that a
former jeopardy for the same offense
practically precluded any right to an
other trial. The demurrer was over
ruled.
Shop Work Increasing.
Decatur, Ala., March 4.—It is re
ported that the Louisville and Nashville
shops will have to increase the number
of its employes by several hundred ow
ing to au order just received to build

ing stock has compelled the setting
aside of all but urgent repairs to get out
the order. Three hundred and fifty of
these cars are to be completed by June 1.

that it was the beiief of the signers that

Both Houses Acquiesce in the Changes
Recommended by the Conference
Committee—New schedule Goes Into
Effect July 1 Next.
Washington, Feb. 28.—The con
ferees of the senate aud house upon the
war revenue reduction bill today an
nounced the result of their deliberations
upon that measure. As already stated,
the report of the committee shows a
compromise all along the lines of the
hill, the changes iu the present law be
ing as follows:
Tobacco—Twenty per cent discount
of the original tax of 12 cents peijjpound,
as against 25 per cent- reduction as fixed
by the senate and none as the bill passed
the house. The rate agreed upou will
make the tax $9. GO per 100 pounds, as
stated iu these dispatches yesterday.
Cigars—On those weighing more than
3 pounds per 1,000 the house rate of $3
per 1,000 was retained, as against $3.50
as fixed by the senate aud $3.GO as in
the present law. On those weighing
less than 3 pounds per 1,000, the senate
rate of 18 cents per pound was allowed
to stand, as against the rate of $1 per
1,000 as fixed by the existing law, whiefi
was not disturbed by the house.
Cigarettes—On those weighing not
more than*! pounds per 1,000, the sen-
ate action nxiug the rate at IS cents per
pound prevailed. The house did not
change the existing law.
Beer—The house rate of $1.60 per bar
rel and repealing the 7, ; j, discount was
retained.
Bankers’ capital — Present law re
tained, the senate receding from its
amendment.

The stomach controls the situa

food you want, If you suffer from

The congress "having added the sanc
tion of its authority to the powers al
ready possessed aud exercised by the ex
ecutive under the constitution, thereby
leaving wijh the executive the responsi
bility for the government of the Philip
pines, I shall continue the efforts already
begun until order shall be restored
throughout the islands,and as fast as con
ditions permit will establish local gov
ernments, in the formation of which the
full co-operation of the people has-been
already invited, and when established
will encourage the people to administer
them. The settled purpose, long ago
prevailed, to afford the inhabitants of
the islands self government as fast as
they were ready for it, will be pursued
with earnestness and fidelity.
Good Results Already.
Already something has been accom
plished-in this direction. The govern
ment’s representatives, civil and mili
tary, are doing faithful and noble work
in their mission of emancipation and
merit the approval and support of their
countrymen. The most liberal terms of
amnesty have already been communi
cated to the insurgents, aud the way is
still open for those who have raised
their arms against the government for
honorable submission to its authority.
Our countrymen should not be deceived.
