Itevl.w of Principal Kveiits of latt Four Years and Onlllns of Onr Future C'ourte. President Mi Kinh y's address was as follows: My Fellow Citixcus When we as sembled here on March 4, 1W, there was great anxiety with regard to onr cur-, rcucy and crcilil. None exists now. Then our treasury receipts were inad equate to meet the current obligations of the government. Now they are suf ilcient for all public needs, and we have a surplus Instead of a deficit. Then I felt constrained to convene the con gress in extraordinary session to devise revenues to pay the ordinary expense? of the government. Now- I have the satisfaction to announce that the cou rress just closed has reduced ttUHtioii in the sum of $11,kki,(n). ' Then there was deep solicitude be- Tore long depression In our tnanufac- Turing, milling, agricultural and mer cantile iiiilustrier, anil the consequent distress of our laboring population. Now every avenue of production li cruwi'ed with activity, labor is well cm ployed, and American products .find guod markets at home ami ubroud. Our diversified productions, however ore inert-using in inch unprecedented volume as to admonish ns of the iteccs sity of still further enlarging our for eign markets by hrouder commercial re hit ions. For this purpose reciprocal tradt arrangements with other nations shoalc1 iu liberul spirit be carefully cultivuted and promoted. The national verdict of IS! Mi has fol the most purt been executed. What- tver remain unfulfilled is a cuiitiuuiuj TiiFonong RnnKVK!r. obligation resting with andimin!?he force upon the executive nml the con gress. Itut fortunate as our conditior Is, its permanence can amly be assured by sound business methods and strict economy Iu national administration am legislation. We should not permit otn great prosperity to lead us to recklesi ventures in business or prolligacy In pill: He expenditures. While the congress de termine the objects nml the sum ol appropriations, the olllciuls of the ex ecutive departments are responsible fot honest and faithful disbursement anil it shotilil be their constant care to avoiii waste and extrnvnirauce. Honesty, capacity and Industry art nowhere more holism livable than III pule lie employment. These should be fund amental requisites to original appropria tions nud the surest guarantees against removal. V4ni Keciinif. I o v liihl--. Four years ago we stood on the brink of war without the people knowing it, and without any preparation or effort nt preparation for the impending peril. I did all that iu honor could be done ta avoid the war, but without avail. It be came Inevitable ami the congress, at ttt first regular session, without party di vision, provided money in anticipation of the crisis and in preparation to meet it. It cntne. Tlie result wus signally favorably to American arms anil iu the hightst decree honorable to the govern men:. It haposed upon us obligations from Which wc cm not escape, ami from which it would be dishonorable to seek to es cape. We are now at peace with the world and it Is my fervent prayer that, if dilTereiiees arise between us anil other powers tiiey may be settled by peace ful arbiirii'ioi- mid that hereafter w may be spared the horrors of war. Entrusted by the people fur a second time with the olllce of president, I en ter upon its administration appreciating the great responsibilities which atttacb to their renewed honor and commission, piomising unreserved devotion on my part to their faithful discharge anil rev erently invoking for my guidance the direction and favor of Almighty Owl. I should shrink from the duties thU day assumed if I did not feel that In their performances I should have the co-operation of the wise and patriotic men of it 1 1 parties. It encourages me for the great task which I now under take to believe that those who volun tarily committed to Ine the trust Im posed upon the chief executive of the republic, will give to nic generous sup port in uiy duties to preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the I'nit ed Slates, and to take care that the law: be faithfully 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 us all, and faithful observance should follow its decrees. 1-eiMltitiA I. to Mas lllHvenie i. Strong hearts and helpful hands are needed, ami fortunately, we have them In every part of our beloved country. We are reunited. Sectionalism hus dis appeared. Division on public questions can no longer be traced by the war inapt of ISM. These old differences less and loss disturb the judgment. Existing problems demand the thought ami quick en the conscience of the country and the responsibility for their .resenee, ns well us for their righteous settlement, rests upon us all no more upon me than upon rou. There are some national questions in the solution of which patriotism should er.cliule partisanship. Magnifying their (lillieulties will not take them off our bands nor facilitate their adjustment. Distrust of the capacity, integrity and high purpose of the Americau people will not be an inspiring theme for future po litical contests. Hark pictures and gloomy forebodings are worse than useless. These only becloud, they do not help to point the way of safety nud honor. '"Hope maketh not aslinmeil." The prophets of evil were not the builders ol the republic, nor in Its crisis since have they saved or served it. The faith of the fathers was a mighty force in Its crea tion, and the faith of the ilescemlnutl lias wrought its progress ami furnished its defendeds ill the ability of our people to solve wisely and for civilization (h mighty problems resting upon them. The American people, intrenched in free dom at home, tuke their love for it with I hem wherever they go and they reject as mistaken and unworthy the doitriuf thut we lose onr own liberties by secur ing the euduring fo Intions of liberty to atlicrs. Our institutions will not de terlornte by extension, and our sense o: justice will not abate under tropic sun: in distant sens. As heretofore, so here after will the nnthni demonstrate Iti lituesi to administer any new estate which eveuts devolve upon it. nud li fear of God will "take occasion by thi hand and make the bounds offrecdon wider yet." If there are those among us who uiaki our way more dilllcult, we must not b disheartened, but the more earnest! dedicate ourselves to the task upon whiel we have rightly entered. The path o' progress is seldom smooth. New tiling nre often found hard to do. Our fnther found them so. We find them so. The: nre Inconvenient. They cost ns some thug. Itut nre we not made better fo: the effort and saiTtice, and are not thon we serve lifted up and blessed? We will be consoled, too, with the fac that opposition has confronted every on ward movement of the republic fron its opening hour until now, but withou success. The republic has marched on and oa am ltd every step bus exalted frcedon and humanity. We ore undergoing Ih same ordeal, as did our predecessor neiirly a century ago. They triumphed Will their successors falter and plea (Tgnnie impotency iu the notion. Surely after 12." years of achieve ment for mankind we will not uov surrender our equality with other powen on matters fundamental and essentia to nationality. With no such purposi was the nation created. In no sucl spirit has it developed its full and hide pendent sovereignty. We adhere to tin principle of equality among ourselvel and by no act of ours will wc asslgi to ourselves a subordinate rank in th family of nations. My fellow citizens, the public event: of the past four years have gone Inti history. They are too near .to Justif; recital. Some of them were unforeseen many of them momentous and far-reach ing in their consequences to ourselves am! onr relations with the rest of the world. 1.0CA? ioie -inn -ol ' or 1 lilt pp li .

The transfer of American contro to the new government is of such greai Importance, involving an obligation re suiting from our intervention ami tin treaty uf peace, that I am glad to In advised by the recent act of congress ol the policy which tlie legislative brand of the government deems essential to tin best interests of Cuba mid the Vnitec States. Tlie principles, which led to our Inter ventiou, require that tile funilaiuctita law, upon which tile new government rests, should be adapted to secure a gov eminent capable of performing the dutlei and discharging the functions of a sepa rate nation, of observing iis interna tional obligations, of protecting life anc property, insuring order, safety and lib crty, and conforming to the established and historical policy of the I'nited State! in its relation to Cuba. The peace whiel we lire pledged to leave to the Cubai people, must curry with it the guarantee! of perma nance.

ORDER OF PARADE. Soldlars Mad Civilians From Coast Cuait and From th takes lo the Cnir In Unr Ta-n-Every pit sldi ntlal inauguration In re cent years hus had its parade, always creditable in size and varii-ty and usually having some distinctive fenture. That which followed President McKiuley on his return from the Capitol to the White House and pato-.id iu review there before ..isfl THE WHITE HOUSE. him was iliffirent from all its predeces sors in the majestic predominance of the militury feature. The civil contingent was quite up to the average point of nura hers; yet by actual count made by the mnrshul the men in soldierly uniform outnumbered the civilians in line by more than threi to one. In the ranks of blue were mui:y so'diers who hud carried the country s Hug fur out into the world, and hud wgeil a war which was all in the future when the last inaugural pro cession marched along Pennsylvania avenue. With the" ounger veterans, and in tlie place of honor as the president I escort, marched another contingent made up iutitely of soldiers of the civil wur, all gray-haired and showing in gait and licit forms murks of the passug" ol yeaiB and of the lingering effects of the great battles and cauipuigus of the most stupendous struggle that the world oai ten o'lil it was an easy prophecy to oo serve that never again Would they be able to make as brave and numerous a showing iu their effort to escort a presi dent eii the occasion of his accession tc otbee. For the first time in a quarter of s century the presideut rode from the White House to the Cupitol without a succe.-sor beside him ill his curriuge. Grant was the last of the presidents ul the I'nited States up to this time to oc cupy a similar position. President Mc Kiuley had for his companions iu hit carriage members of the committee spec ially chosen by congress to take charge of the inauguration, headed by Senatoi Murk Hunnii, himself a national figure. The nations of the world, greut and small, paid their tribute to the president ill attendance at the ceremonies at the Capitol mid in reviewing the great pa rade. The American navy was represented in the ceremonies more numerously than ever before. Half a dozen warships con tributed through their sailors and ma rines one of tlie most unique and enjoy- able features of the ceremonies, marching over a thousand strong along the streets, I irii-ru Ciiiv i ..it.. The states of the Union rendered theli homage to the president and demonstrat ed that no party feeling dominated the greut event by the attendance of 13 gov ernors representing North, South, East ami West, most of tlieni accompanied by numerous staffs. There Were (lover nor (Mfll of New York, Governor Yutei of Illinois, Governor Wins of Michigan. Governor Van Sundt of Minnesota, Gov ernor ICichards of Wyoming, Goveruoi btone of Pennsylvania.

With him in tlie carriage were .Senators Iluiuia and Jones ana Itepresentutive Cuiiuun. In one of the carriages Admiral Dewey and General Miles. were seated together, In full dress uniform. Tile carriages left the gi-'junds by the east gate and turned west up Pennsylvania avenue to reach the rear uf the escorting column and then countermarch, passing the White House ugaiu ut 10:50 o'clock. Gruud Marshal Greene and stall were at the head of the line. Thi stall were very numerous and made a splendid uppearance iu ful dress uniforms, representing every branch ol the military service. .Vl'iei quite a breach in the Hue came the old veterans of the civil war headed by G.neial Duniel K. Sickles, sitting on his charger iu magnificent style, not withstanding the absence of the leg he left on the field of Gettysburg. Two baud supplied stirring music for the old veterans. '1 he right of line wus the L'nifoilu Veteran I'niou. followed by the Union Veteran Legion, aud they in turn by th grizzly old veterans of the Grand Army of the Hepubliv. A great sho:it went up as the gray uni forms i f the West Point cadets cuuie ill sight. Kight in their footsteps came the middies fron. Annapolis uud the march ing uf both was superb. I'iirlo I. : . .- i.t ..vhletirr. One of the most novel aud impressive Ccat.irrs of the whole day's ceremony was tlie Porto Iticuu battalion. Like Veteruus at the word of coiiiinuuil tin- hat tuiion swung into line of uiurch. They had been resting on Pennsylvania uveuue near Eleventh street, and as the red- touted liitillei yinen passed thein they wheeled with beautiful precision into their place w ithout causing a second's de lay in the marching line. The crowd scut up u mighty cheer as these! soldiers, the infants of the I'nited Vutcs army, slipped briskly along. ihowing their pride und pleasure by linilil'g faceu. Tli lletitru ).atc . After the president had concluded his inaugural address tlie biMimiug of can non Slid liliire of bugles announced that the presideut was ready to proceed to the White House.

Already something has been accom plished in this direction. The govern incut's representatives, civil and mill lary, are doing faithful and noble worl iu their mission of emancipation, ant merit the approval and support of the! countrymen. The most liberal terms o amnesty have already been comuitinlcat ed to the insurgents, and the way is stll open for those who have raised thei. onus against the government, for hon ornide submission to its authority. On countijmen should not be deceived. Wi are not waging war against the iuhabi touts of the Philippine isluuds. A por lion of them are not making war agaius Hie Vuited States.
