WJLSOK MAKES HIS INAUGURAL ADDRESS He Promises a Broad, Constructive Policy During the Next Four Years.
ASKS PEOPLE'S AID " i .y To Carry Out the Policies Which Will Be of Benefit to the Country. "Washington. March 4. The inaugural address of President Woodrow Wilson Is as follows: There has been a change of government. It began , two years ago. when the bouse of representatives became Democratic by a decisive majority. It bus now been completed. The senate about to assemble will also be Democratic. The. offices of president and vice president have been put into the bands of Democrats. What does the cbange mean? That is the question that Is uppermost In our minds today. That is the question 1 am going to try to answer. In order, If I may. to Interpret the occasion. It means much more than the mere success of a party. The success of a party means little except when the nation is using that party for a large and definite. purpose. No one can mistake the purpose for which the nation now seeks to use the Democratic party. It seeks to use it to Interpret a change in Its own plans and point of view. Some old things with which we bad grown familiar and which had begun to creep Into the very babit of our thought and of our lives have altered their aspect as we have latterly looked critically upon them with fresh, awakened eyes; have dropped their disguises and shown themselves alien and sinister. Some new things as we look frankly opoD them, willing to comprehend their real character, have come to assume the aspect of things long believed In and familiar, stuff of our own convictions. We have been refreshed by a new insight into our own life. Our Model Government. We see that In many things life Is very great It is Incomparably great lu its material aspects, in its body of wealth, in the diversity and sweep of Its energy, in the industries which hare beeu conceived and built up by the genius of individual men and the limitless enterprise of groups of men. It Is great also, very great, in its moral force. Nowhere else In the world have noble men and women exhibited in more striking forms the beauty and the energy- of sympathy and helpfulness and counsel In their efforts to rectify wrong, alleviate suffering and set the weak in the way of strength and hope. We have built up, moreover n great system of government which has stood through a long age as in many respects a model for those who seek to set liberty upon foundations that will endure against fortuitous cbange, against storm and accident Our life contains every great thing and contains it in rich abundance. But the evil has come with the good, and much fine gold has been corroded With riches has come inexcusable waste. We have squandered a great part of what we might have used and have not stopped to conserve the ex ceedlng bounty of nature without which our genius for enterprise would have been worthless and impotent, scorning to be careful, shamefully prodigal as wen as admirably efficient We have been proud of our industrial achievements, but we have not hitherto stopped thoughtfully enough to count the human cost, the cost of lives snuffed out, of energies overtaxed and broken, the. fearful physical and spir itual cost to the men and women and children upon whom the dead weight and burden of it all has fallen pitiless ly the years through. The groans and agony of it all had not yet reached our ears, the solemn, moving under tone of our life, coming up out of the mines and factories and out of every borne where the struggle had its intimate and familiar seat. With the great government went many deep secret things which we too long delayed to look into n nd scrutinize with candid, fearless eyes. The great government we loved has too often been made use of for private and selbsb purposes, and those who used it had forgotten the people. Duty of Americans Outlined. At last a vision has been vouchsafed 11 a of our tifi wholt We stn the The Quickest, Simplest - Cough Cure ..Easily and Cheaply Hade a HBb Saves You $2. This recipe makes a pint of cough syrup enough to last a family a lonjj tune. You couldn't buy as much, or as good cough syrup for $2.50. Simple as it is, it gives almost instant relief and usually stops the most obstinate cough in 24 hours. This is partly due te the fact that it is slightly laxative, stimulates the appetite and "has an excellent tonic effect It is pleasant to takechildren like it. An excellent remedy, too, for whooping cough, croup, sora lungs, asthma, throat troubles, etc Mix one pint of granulated sugar with pint of warm water, and stir for 2 minutes. Put 2 ounces of Pines ( fifty cents' worth) in a pint bottle, and add the Sugar Syrup. It keeps perfectly. Take a teaspoonxul every one, two or three hours. Pine is one of the oldest and best known, remedial agents for the throat membranes. Pinex is the most valuable concentrated compound of Norway white pine extract, and is rich in guaiacol and all the other natural healing elements. Other preparations will not work in this formula. The prompt results front this recipe nave endeared it to thousands of bouse wives in the United States and Canada, which explains why the plan has been Imitated often, but never successfully.

bad with the good, the debased and decadent with the sound and vital. With this vision we approach new affairs. Onr dnty is to cleanse, to reconsider, to restore, to correct the evil without impairing the good, to purify and humanize every process of our common life without weakening or sentimentalizing it. There has been something crude and heartless and unfeeling in our baste to succeed and be great Our thought has been. "Let every man look out for himself; let every generation look out for itself." while we reared giant machinery which made It Impossible that any but those wbo stood at the levers of control should have a chance to look out for themselves. We had not forgotten our morals. We remembered well enough that we bad set up a policy which was moact to serve the humblest as well as the most powerful, with an eye single to the standards of Justice and fair play, and remembered it with pride. But we were very heedless and in- a hurry to be great We have come now to the sober second thought. The scales of heedlessness have fallen from our eyes. We bare made up our minds to square every process of our national life again with the standards we so proudly set up at the beginning and have always carried at our hearts. Our work is a work of restoration. .Thing to Be Accomplished. We have itemized with some degree of particularity the things that ought to be altered, and here are some of thu chief items: A tariff which cuts us ofl from our proper part in the commerce of the world, violates the just princi pies of taxation and makes the government a facile instrument in the hands of private interests; a banking and currency system based upon the necessity of the government to sell its bonds fifty years ago and perfectly adapted to concentrating cash and restricting credits: an industrial system which, take it on all its sides, financial as well as administrative, holds capital In leading strings, restricts the liberties and limits the opportunities of labor and exploits without renewing or conserving the natural resources of the country; a
body of agricultural activities never yet given the efficiency of great business undertakings or served as il should be through the instrumentality of science taken directly to the farm or afforded the facilities of credit best suited to its practical needs; watercourses undeveloped, waste places unreclaimed, forests untended. fast disappearing without plan or prospect of renewal, unregarded waste heaps at every mine. We have studied as perhaps no other nation has the most effective means of production, but we have not studied cost or economy as we should either as organizers of industry, as statesmen or as individuals. Society's Duty to Itself. Nor have we studied and perfected the means by which government may be put at the service of humanity in safeguarding the health of the nation, the health of its men and its women and its children, as well as their rights in the struggle for existence. This la no sentimental duty. The firm basis -of government . is justice, not pity. These are matters of justice. There can be no equality or opportunity, the first essential of justice in the body politic, if men and women and cbilldren be not shielded in their lives, their very vitality, from the consequences of great industrial and social processes which they cannot alter, control or singly cope with. Society must see to It that it does not itself crush or weaken or damage its own constituent parts. The first duty of law is to keep sound the society it serves. Sanitary laws, pure food laws and laws determining conditions of labor which individuals are powerless to determine for themselves are intimate parts of the very business of justice and legal efficiency. These are some of the things we ought to do and not leave the others undone, the old fashioned, never to be Wigleeted, fundamental safeguarding of property and of individual right This i the high enterprise of the new day: To lift everything that concerns our life as a nation to the light that shines from the hearth fire of every man's conscience and vision of the right It is inconceivable we should da this as partisans; it is inconceivable we should do it in ignorance of the facts as they are or in blind baste. We shall restore, not destroy. We shall deal with our economic system as it is and ns it may be modified, not as it might be if we had a clean sheet of paper to write upon, and step by step we shall make it what it should be. in the spirit of those who question their own wisdom and seek counsel and knowledge, not shallow self satisfac tion or the excitement of excursions whither they cannot tell. Justice, and only justice, shall always be our motto. Task Not Merely One of Politics. And yet It will be no cool process of mere science. The nation has been deeply stirred stirred by a solemn passion, stirred by the knowledge of wrong, of ideals lost, of government too often debauched and made an instrument of evil. The feelings with which we face this new age of right and opportunity sweep across our heartstrings like some air out of God's own presence, where justice and mercy are reconciled and the judge and the brother are one. We know our task to lie no mere task of politics, but a task which shall search ns through and through, whether we be able to under stand our time and the need of our people, whether we be indeed then spokesmen and interpreters, whether we hare the pure heart to comprehend and the rectified will to choose out tiigb course of action. This is not a day f triumph; It fe a day of dedication. - Here muster not the forces of party, but the forces of humanity. Men's hearts wait upon us; men's lives hang in the balance: men's hopes call nnon ns to say what we will do. Who shall live up- to the great trust! Who dares fail to try? I summon all honest men. all patriotic, all for its rd look las men. to my side. God helping me. I will not fail them if the will but counsel and snsraln me. The Mothers' Favorite.

HEW CONGRESS TO HAVE HARD WORK Three Important Domestic Problems Must Be Settled During the Session
TARIFF THE LEADER Reform of the Currency Laws and the Regulation of the Trusts Are Other Two. (National Xwa Aoc!atknt WASHINGTON, March 4. Three great domestic legislative problems faced the Democratic Administration when It came into complete control of the Government today. These problems are the revision of the tariff, the reform of the United States currency laws and the regulation of the trusts, left over for the new Congress is the formation of income tax legislation, made possible by the constitutional amendment recently adopted. Next in line of importance come the questions of conservation, economy In public expenditures. patronage and foreign policy. The tentative program for the extraordinary cession of Congress, soon to convene. Indictee that a foundation will be laid In that session for grappling with all these matters. In preparation for consideration of the tariff, which is regarded by most of the Democratic leaders as of paramount importance, the Ways and Means Committee of the House, which has charge of all tariff legislation, has been holding secret sessions for weeks past. The result of the deliberations of this committee is said to be the near completion ot a tariff bill intended to provide sufficient revenue for the running expenses of -the Government, while at the same time it reduces some of the most criticized rates ot the Payne-AIdrich tariff law. It was deemed probable here today, however, that the "Tariff Congress," as the extra session of Congress has been nicknamed, will also undertake to dispose of at least one of the other two great problems facing the admin istration, and because of the p re-inauguration preparation It was believed that the reform of the currency would receive attention before the trust question. If this prograin holds good, the administration will find the stage already set for a revision of the banking laws. The Glass sub-committee of the House committee on Banking and Currency held extensive hearings during the recent session of Congress and a bill Is now In preparation to provide a more flexible currency system to the end of preventing panics.
