BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN
SEOHETAIIY OF STATE.
(Copyright, 1913, by the News
paper Enterprise Association.)
The inauguration of President
Wilson and Vice President Mar
shall could not have been more
■Impressive. Assembled in the
senate chamber when the vice
president took the oath of office,
were representatives of all par
ties and scetions of our own coun
try and of all leading nations of
the earth. With bowed heads
_lthese men, all of them exercising
■ authority, listened while the chap
lain, in a most felicitously worded
prayer, acknowledged the higher
authority of the heavenly father
and Invoked his blessing upon
those retiring from, as well as
those entering into, official posi
tion.
«. The vice president's speech was
jr. a characteristic one—full of
thought and vigor and replete
with epigram. It will be more
read and commented upon than
any similar speech delivered in
many a year. Then came the ad
ministrating of the oath to the
president-elect, a solemn act amid
. a hush broken by the applause
that followed when the new presi
dent turned to address the assem
bled multitude. The lesson taught
by what followed ought not to be
lost upon our own people, or upon
those who look to us for an ex
ample. A nation of more than
90,000,000 of Inhabitants passed
peacefully from one administra
tion to another— new admin
istration representing ; what
must be regarded as scarcely less
than a revolution in methods and
policies.
By a plurality of more than 2 -
000,000 the voters had rejected a
candidate who twice had been
president and another candidate
who had been president for four
years and placed its office in the
hands of one of its own choosing
committed by his platform and
his speeches to a new freedom—a
freedom which promises to re
store ancient landmarks and re
vive the spirit of those who dedi
.- cated this land to free Institu
tions. The speech of President
Wilson was an interpretation of
the verdict rendered at the polls
presented in that lucid style
which has added so much to his
effectiveness as a public speaker
He outlined the things from
which the country has turned,
and denned the course upon which
under the guidance of his admin
■; istration, it is entering.
If anyone has doubted the pro
gressiveness of hi 8 program, all
doubt has been removed. His
speech was a bugle call that the
hearts of those who had strug
gled, at first almost without hope
but now exultant In a victory
that has put a unified nation be
hind him. ■ . ; . -,_• . .
Happy the president that thus
culled to enter the highest office

low man— happy . one who

dent Wilson Is, by «n almost un
animous feeling«- of | good will.

MAD DOG
SCARE IN
BISMARK
The mad dog scare has again
broken out in Tacomn and the po
lice have been asked to send aid
out U» Bismarck where several
dogs have gone mad during the
last IN hours. The people in that
section are panic-stricken and it
is believed that the recent police
rule requiring all dogs in Tuco
ma to lie muzzled will be again
invoked.
W R. Hyde reports the loss of
a fine English setter which had to
be killed on account of dydropho
bla. Several others have been
dispatched.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. N. H.
Lathrop was attacked by a vicious
dog which followed her to her
home. The woman's screams
were heard by neighbors who
rushed to her aid and the animal
was instantly killed.
The police plan to capture all
dogs In Bismarck this afternoon
and to kill all those showing signs
of hydrophobia.

"IT COSTS LESS"
Tacoma <lie \nrr»i Port to
the Producing Areas.
CHAPTER IV.
Tacoma has grown from a
population of a little more than
25,000 In 1897 to about 100.000
today and is now getting up
steam and In going to hum as
she has never hummed before.
The Chicago, Milwaukee &
St. Paul system has opened the
game by building a short cut
line over the mountains to Ta
coma. The Northern Pacific
and Great Northern have built
a line down the north bank of
the Columbia from Spokane to
Vancouver, Wash., and now
these two roads in connection
with the Harriman system are
building a line from Tacnma to
connect therewith known as
the "Point Defiance Line" so
constructed as to make what
Is practically a down hill haul
all the way from Spokane to
Tacoma. Just let that sink in
a bit. A down hill haul in
stead of having to climb over
the mountains and going to
end at Tacoma! Taroma has
the best harbor on Puget
Sound and Is the nearest port to
the producing areas. Appreci
ating ilils fact the .railroads
have secured over two thousand
acres of water front and tide
land property for terminals.
Do you grasp the situation?
The Point Defiance line is
scheduled to be completed this
fall. When this is completed
freight can bo delivered In Ta
coma at less cost than to any
other port In tills part of the
country. It does not take much
thinking to figure out that the
railroads have concluded they
must make this the big ship
ping port of the Northwest.
The Panama Canal means at
least two Important things to
Tacoma—the opening of many
additional markets and the In
flux of people from abroad.
Trie' completing of railroad
construction now under way
permanently fixe* Tacoma. as
the greatest shipping port of
the Northwest and the Canal
means more markets and more
people, and then more mill*,
factories and more business of
all kinds.
"It costs less" here not only
for the transportation but for
merchant and manufacturer as
well.
