Greatest Civic and Military Display at Harrison Inauguration
March day in Washington drew about a hundred thousand citizens for Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison transitions. Crowds packed streets and hotels as parades, military units, and civic groups moved toward the Capitol. Harrison took the oath, delivered a long inaugural address urging unity, tariff reform, civil service, immigration care, and a stronger navy amid a vast, ceremonial celebration.
