Sllenty bearing greetings of friend Sibil) from tho North, tho "htrKesl American ting in the world," passed through the streets of Jackson today, carried by 200 members of the Young Men's lluslness Club In the parade pre-coding the Inaugural of Theo, Ulllio as Uovornor, and It was cheered all the way. The monster emblem of American liberty, 62 1-2 by 1 20 feet, was most imposing, as It entirely covered the paved business streets that load to the en pi tot grounds, The appearance of the flag was the (signal for many out bursts of applauae from old and young, and It was given the "glad hand1' by the Southern people, The flag came hem from Canton, Ohio, In the custody of Albert Itelgler, sent here with it by the official custodian, the Canton Chamber 'if This was Its first Journey Into the Sunny Hnuth, and the longest trip It has ever made, Motion picture of the emblem, carried by the young business men, will be featured In tho mo. tion picture theatres throughout tho country.

The giant flag moved through streets lined with cheering thousands, anil school children, especially were delighted with the spectacle. They had been reading In the newspaper for loma time of the coming of the flag, and they were frank to say the sight far exceeded their expectations.

Williams, who suggested getting the emblem for the occasion, said It would be loaned "as an evidence of the era of good feeling now existing between the North and South." The giant flag was attractively draped over part of the capitol dome after the parade, and attracted a great deal of attention. Thus Theo. G.

The throng was silent hut respectful. There was no cheering, no enthusiasm, on Jackson's principal thoroughfare. The wild and exciting scenes characteristic of the memorable gubernatorial campaign last year were conspicuous by their absence. The incoming Governor, muffled up In an overcoat, and wearing a silk hat, was frequently greeted by personal friends and acquaintances watching the procession from the tsidwalks. He lifted his hat in smiling acknowledgement of these greetings.

But there was no cheering, no plaudits, along the main route of the parade. No enthusiasm was shown until the assembly on the capitol steps. II ox kl In tonnnsBd. Details of the parade were planned by Adj. -Gen.
