Washington, D. C., March 4. I do
. solemnly swear thai 1 will faithfully
execute the office of president of the
United Suites, and, to the best of my
ability, protect, preserve and defend the
.constitution of the United States."
With these words Theodore Roosevelt.
; president of the United States for the
past three years, was Saturday in-
. augurated for another terra to the high-
est office which it is the privliege of an
American citizen to attain.
Chief Justice Fuller, with all the
i solemnity of the three other occasions
of like character In which he has fig-
ured during his career, administered
the oath to the president. This was the
fourth and last instance In which the
.chief justice is to be the second flgure
of importance. Hardly had the presi-
dent tinlstied his Inaugural address and
disappeared within the capltol building
than the hush which had fallen upon

-ceremony there was no letting down
of the tension of Interest. The passing
. of a uniformed horseman was sufficient
to call forth cheers, although in some
(sections the multitude showed signs of
restlessness. This was true particularly
• on the outskirts of the throng where,
pressed by constantly arriving recruits. |
many struggled to get nearer to the
point of Interest. The effect upon the i
• densely packed multitude was a contin-
uous surging backward anil forward •
a turbulent sea of humanity.
The rendezvousing of the tsoopa.com-
mittees and civic societies entertained
• the crowd throughout the long wait In- |
. cldent to the schedule. The various or-
ganizations arriving by different routes
passed Into the narrow defiles w hich the
police kept open, the brilliant uniforms j
.of the troops, the bright snshes of the |
-committees and the rich caparisoning
of the horses lending themselves to a
kaleidoscopic, panoramic effect. Cheers
 upon cheers greeted the constantly
.shifting picture.
Notables Begin to Arrive.
Shortly after noon. Just following the
'.Induction into office of Vice President
Fairbanks, the monster stand, decorat-
• ed with plants, flowers, flags and bunt-
ing. began to fill with the people who
had Just finished witnessing the cere-
monies in the senate chamber, and
i scarcely a half hour passed before this
• coign of vantage was filled to over-
flowing. Added to the color afforded by
the plants and bunting were the bril-
" llant costumes of the women, and these
put on a touch of variety which rivaled
i the occasion of four years ago. Every
ledge about the capltol and the wln-
. dows were filled to the point of overflow-
ing with their human burdens, and long
before the official party appeared the
streets were jammed as far as the ey
• could reach.
Several minutes before one o'clock an
• extra loud burst of cheers from th<!
multitude Just in front of the main
• capltol door called the attention from
the brilliant parade of uniforms in the
•street to the official party, which had
Just come through the main door. "The
president, there he is," and similar
cries came from the assembled i>opu-
lace. but the nation's chief was not to
come for some moments.
A hush was noticeable in the crowd.
The official entrance was dramatic. All
except those who wore participating In
the ceremony were seated. When tho
Justices of the supreme court, wlthth^
exception of Chief Justice Fuller
•merged from between the Corinthian
pillars and marchod down the sloping |
carpeted aisle to their station they were
greeted with applause. The justices j
wore their robes and skull-caps. T hen
came the members of the diplomatI'1
corps, in their gorgeous uniforms, and
they evoked thunderous applause. Led
by Count Casslnl. the Russian ambas-
sador and dean of the corps, and fol
lowed by the others In order of prece
dence, they took seats on the right ot
the stand. Strolling in after them came
members of the cabinet, senators and
representatives In congress.
Hush as President Comes.
Following on the heels of the official
party came Mrs. Roosevelt and a party
of friends: then, but a moment lafer. the
new vice president. Mr. tairbanks. and
his escort arrived and were greeted by
tremendous bursts of applause. As soon
as Vice President Fairbanks seated him-
self the cheers ceased, the military pre-
sented arms, every hat In the commit-
tees came off and the great ocean of peo-
ple set up a perfect roar of cheers, fair-
ly shouting itself hoarse.
Quick as a flash every sound w as stilled
and President Roosevelt, quiet and com-
posed of demeanor, came from between
the gigantic pillars, escorted by Chief
Justice Fuller. A random burst of
cheers came from the front of the crowd
as with measured tread, in harmony
I with the dignified step of the chief jus-
' tlce. the president advanced in state
! down the long aisle of distinguished
guests. By this time all were standing
J and nothing could be heard above th
roar of thunderous welcome. Immedi-
ately following came, arm in arm. (he
members of the committee on arrange-
| monts. As the president passed down
I the aisle he bared his head and with
I characteristic sweep of his hat bowed In

people.

most representative gathering that had
ever assembled to greet the chief execu-
tive of the nation upon a like occasion.

amid deep silence. So great was the
awe of the assembled multitude that
not the semblance e<f a demonstration
followed. Then the president began his
inavgural address, and as soon as he had
finished and disappeared within the
capltol the signal was flashed to the
navy yard and the salute of 21 guns

CAUSE FOR THANKFULNESS
He Says We Have Obligations Both
to Ourselves and to the World
and Can Shirk Neither.
Washington, March 4—The following
Is the text of President Roosevelt's In-
augural address:
My Fellow Citizens: No people on
earth have more cause to be thankful
than ours, aud this is said reverently.
In no spirit of boastf%iness in our own
strength, but with gratitude to the Giver
of Good Who has blessed us with the
conditions which have enabled us to
achieve so large a measure of well being
and of happiness. To us as a people It
has been granted to lay the foundation
af our national life in a new continent. |
We are the heirs of the ages, and yet ^
we have had to pay few of the penalties ,
which in old countries are exacted by |
the dead hand of a bygone civilisation. I
We have not been obliged to fight for
our existence against any allen race,
aud yet our life has called for the vigor
aud effort without which the manlier
and hardier virtues wither away. Un-
der such conditions it would be our own
fault if we failed; and the success which
we have had in the past, the success
which we confidently believe the future
will bring, should cause in us no feel-
ing of vain glory, but rather a deep and
abiding realization of all which lite has
offered us; a full acknowledgement ol
the responsibility which is ours; and a
| fixed determination to show that under
a free government a mighty people can
thrive best, alike as regards the things
of the body and the things of the souL
Much has been given to us. and much ^
will rightfully be expected from us. We
have duties to others aud duties to our-
selves; and we can shirk neither. We
have become a great nation, forced by
the fact of its greatness into relations
with the other nations of the earth;
and we must behave as beseems a peo-
ple with such responsibilities. Toward
all other nations, large and small, oui
attitude must be one of cordial and sin-
cere friendship. We must show not only
in our words, but in our deeds that we
are earnestly desirous of securing theif (
good will by acting toward them in a
spirit of Just and generous recognition
of all their rights. But justice and gen-
erosity in a nation, as in an individual,
count most when shown not by the
weak, but by the strong. While ever
careful to refrain from wronging others,
we must be no less insistent that we are
not wronged ourselves. \\ e wish peace,
but we wish the peace of justice, the
peace of righteousness. We wish it be-
cause we think it is right, and not be-
cause we are afraid. No weak nation
that acts manfully and justly should
ever have cause to fear us. and no strong
power should ever be able to single us
out as a subject for insolent aggression.

President Roosevelt's manner was not
that of a man upon whose head fell the
great responsibilities of a nation's care
Three years of experience as chief ex
ecutive had changed this man cs mucn
as did Lincoln's liberation of the black
man change that great statesman.
While he waited for the applause to die
out he stood In triumph, with no show
of vanity, with no evidences of political
enmity, apparently no memories of the
campaign gone by, and nothing more
disconcerting than a huge gathering of
loyal Americans.
Oath Is Administered.
Chief Justice Fuller stepped to the
front of the pavilion constructed espe-
cially for the use of the president dur-.
lng the ceremonies, and Ills clerk came
torward bearing a Bible. A hush, fol-
endar of events for the iay. was tho
Induction of Senator Fairbanks, of
Indiana, into the office of un> vice
president of the United States in the
senate chamber. The ceremony was
brief and simple to the extent of be-
ing severe. Immediately following the
address and oath of Vice President Fair-
banks came the final adjournment of the
Fifty-eighth congress and the beginning
of the special session.
Solemn and yet brief" is the
way the taking of the oath Impressed
the spectators. It consisted of a proro-
 made with uplifted hand and bowed
head, to perform t!"e duties of the of-
fice and to suppt>rt and defend the con-
stitution of the United States. This
was the oath of office, and it was admin-
istered by Senator Frye as president pro
tempore of the senate. The two officials
stood c6nfrontlng each other on the ele-
vated platform on which rests the desk
of the preceding officer of the senate,
practically on the same spot on which
all the incoming vice presidents for the
past 50 years have stejod.
Regarding the notables who were
present at the ceremony In the senate,
practically the same personages were
seen at this event as were present about
an hour later at the Inauguration of the
president. Every niche and crauny in
the nailery was filled with people. That
section which Is generajly used private
ly by the senators was turned over to
the executive party and directly oppo-
site that quarter newspaper men were
busily engaged portraying the scenes
about them. Outside of these two
quarters of the gallery persons hold-
ing special tickets were seated.
Shortly before 12 the special guests
began to arrive. The president was
seated In a big red leather chair Im-
mediately In front of the desk of the
presiding officer and was an Interesting
spectator of the ceremony In which he
htmself had participated four years ago.
The Induction ceremony did not con-
sume more than two minutes of time and
was administered by Mr. Frye, presid-
ing officer of the senate.
of the world are important; but still
more important are our relations among
ourselves. Such growth in wealth, in
population and in powers as this nation
I has seen during the century and a quar-
ter of its national life is inevitably ac-
companied by a like growth in the prob-
lems which are ever before every na-
tion that rises to greatness. Power in-
variably means both responsibility and
danger. Our forefathers faced certain i
perils which we have outgrown. We
now face other perils the very existence
of which it was impossible that they
should foresee. Modern life Is both com-
plex and Intense, and the tremendous

said It was neuralgia and indigestion.
