"Independence Day."
One hundred and thirty-eight years ago, the American colonies, having borne the oppression of the Mother Country until they could endure it no longer, boldly declared their independence and took the first united positive step in the foundation of the United. States government. No fairer, truer or braver men ever united in the cause of liberty. They had been thoroughly tested in the fire of adversity. No mere visions occupied their minds. They were sincere and terribly in earnest. They were beginning the building of a peoples' government. They were not looking for frills. Their minds were not occupied by mere visions. Fundamental principles and equality engaged their attention to the exclusion of all other things. Little wonder that their Declaration of Independence is still almost as sacred, with their posterity, as "Holy Writ." Not strange is it that the constitution which they drafted and adoped has been amended so few times. Marvelous declarations, marvelous constitution, marvelous men and patriots. Let the present generation keep sacred the governmental trust handed down by them, and watch

It is the party which1 is the discoverer and developer of great new, ^burning issues of existence, life and death. The issues of two yearsL^go, which we were given 'to tmdeirtittfptt J^hid suddenly developed, and de-
