f,

VlfWH on ICeillittrictliig II10 State of Ohio.

UK IS GO VKKNOIt NOW.

COI.U.MHU.S, O., Jan. 12.—Gov. McKinley took the oath of ofliee at 11:30 a. in. Monday and Lieut. Gov. A. L. Harris, Attorney General D. K. Watson, State Treasurer W. T. Cope, State Auditor K. W. l'oe, Commissioner of PublicWorks C. E. Groce and Food Commissioner XV. J. McKcan were subsequently sworn in to their respective ofiices in the enpitol.

The Ccronoiiy.

The inaugural eeremonios proper were held in the rotunda of the state capitol. The general assembly met at 10:30 and almost immediately proceeded to the rotunda accompanied by the supreme judges and state cJlieers-elect, except Maj. McKinley. At 11 o'clock Gov. Campbell and Gov.-Elect CK in ley were escorted by a joint committee of the house and senate from the Chittenden hotel to the state capitol. Rev. Dr. II. W. Bennett, of the Wesley Chapel Methodist Episcopal church, ottered prayer, after ivhich Chief Justice Marshall .1. Williams, of the state supreme court, administered the oath of office. Gov. McKinley then delivered his inaugural address.

The Address.

The address opens by congratulating the people on the progress and improved condition of the state's material interests. For the world's fair the governor urged the legislatures to see that ample provision be made to have a creditable exhibit from Ohio, and the people and their representatives should also urge upon congress to take such action as will make this exposition worthy the great event it celebrate,s and worthy also the dignity and honor »f the nation.

KedlHtrletlng the State.

The governor approves the new ballot law as a step in the right direction, but recommends that it be amended by adding a number of the ideas of the original Australian system, including that making the voter mark the name of each candidate whom he favors for election. On the subject of congressional rcdistricting, the governor said: "You will bo required under the new census IO redistrict the stale for representatives In congress. This will afford you nil opportunity to arrange the districts with fairness to all. Make the districts so fulr in their relation to the political divisions of our people that the.v will stand until a new census shall be taken. Malte tliem so impartial that no future legislature will dare dls turb them until a new census and a new congressional apportionment will make a change Imperative. Extreme partisanship in tlielr arrangement should be avoided. There is a sense of fair play among the people which Is prompt to condemn a flagrant misus" of party advantage at. the expense of popular suffrage. Partisanship is not to be discouraged, but encouraged In all things where principle Is at stake but a partisanship which would take from tho peoplo their just representation, as In the case of the conpresSlonal ri'dlslrictlug by the last legislature, is an abuse of power which the peoplo are swift to rebuke. Kree suffrage Is of Utile service to the citizen if Its force can be defeated by legislative machinations In the form of a 'gerry mander.'v The districts should be made so as to give the parly majority in ilie state a majority of representatives and so arranged that if the party majority shall change the representative majority shall also change."

The l*urade.

A gun fired at the conclusion of the inaugural address was the signal for the parade of military and civic organizations, which had been forming meanwhile, to move. The parade was probably the most imposing ever seen here on such an occasion.

After the parade had passed the senators and Lieut. Gov. Harris returned to the senate chamber, where the lieutenant governor look the oatii of office and the other state officers went to their respective ofliee-i in the state capitol, where they were sworn in by different members of the supreme court

WASHINGTON, Jun. I'-'.— It bus now become settled law that witnesses can not

be

compelled to testify in any eriin-

inal cases where the answers might tend to criminate them in any way or subject them to possible future prosecution. It is held that the fifth amendment to the constitution, ffivintf persons the ritfht to refuse to answer questions which might

con­

strued in its broadest sense. An Important DecUlmi Such is the effect of the decision of the United States supreme court in the celebrated interstate commerce case of Charles Counselman appellant vs. Frank Hitchcock, marshal of the district court of the northern district of Illinois. This ease is one of great interest to railroad men and has attracted widespread attention.

A I.'elebraled CUM*.

Connselmmi. in the original inquiry, was asked whether he had ever obtained from any railroad a rate on grain shipments lower than the open rate to all shippers. He refused to answer, on the ground that it might criminate him and claimed the protection of the constitutional guarantee conferred by the fifth amendment Judge Gresham decided against him. and held hiin in contempt of court for refusing to answer the questions and it is en appeal from Judge Greshtun's order that the case decided bv the supreme court came up. (iroKliiim Ovorrnl»l.

The court's ruling is that Judge Gresham's order was erroneous and that Connsclmun cannot be compelled to testify. It has been said that the effect of a decision by the courts that witnesses cannot be compelled to testify will seriously hamper the interstate commerce commission in the administration of the interstate commerce act. The court's decision was unanimous.
