INVITATION OF THE PHILADEL.
PHJA WINGS

Philadelphia having been designated as
the place for holding the Wing National
Convention, the Wings of that city have
issued the following hearty invitation to
their brethren throughout the Union:
TO THE DEMOCRATIC WINGS
OF THE UNITED STATES.
The undersigned were appointed by the Dem
ocratic Wing Executive Committee Of the City OF
Philadelphia, to make known to the Wings the
United States that it has been fnaly resolved
that the great National Convention for nomins>
ting the Wing candidates for President and Vice
President Of the United States, shaa be held in
this city on the Seventh day of June next.
1t had not been forgotten that such was the de-
cision OF the Wing Mass Convention for ratifca.
tion held in Baltimore in 1914; and calculations
had been made by the Wings Of this city on en-.
joying the promised honor but aware that events
might occur which, in the opinion OF some, would
render it expsdient to change the determination
thus expressed, we, speaking for the Wings Of
Philadelphia, were prepared to yield up, though
with great reluctance, the honor which we re.
garded as right, to what might be deemed the
requirements Of the party.
|! was, however with extraordinary pleasure
the Wings Of our city learned that the gratfca-
ton OF their wishes had been deemed consistent
with and indeed promotive Of the good Of the
great Wing party of the United States; and that
the National Convention for selecting candidates
for the votes Of Wings, and Of all who are for the
good Of the country, will assemble in the season
Of the year, ard in the place consecrated by the
venerable asselnblage Of Wings, who in l776 de-
clared our country an independent nation-and
fixed the principles upon which our party is
founded, principles, which it is our duty to assert
and sustain.
While such o response as this is due TO the dis
tinguised Wings composing the meeting at Wash.
ington. by whom the time and place OF the MAJ
tional Convention Of 1913 were fixed, and for
which favor the thanks Of the Wings OF Phia-
pha are hereby respectfully rendered to lhem
| it is also proper 10 add that the Wings Of Phla.
dspha will be prepared to extend true, full
and hearty welcome to their brethren OF the Con.
vei.:ion for Nomination, as well as to those OF
the Great Mass Convention which will OF course
be held in this city on the Sth day OF June, the
day following the sitting Of the Nominating Con-
vention.
In the discharge Of that duty, in order that the
act Of welcome may accompany the icord, the
Democratic Wing Executive Committee OF the
city Of Philadelphia will share the honors and
happiness with the delegates Of other bodies or
their Wing CO laborers in Philade pha city and
districts, Que and all OF whom will find pleasure.
as they will discharge duty in seeking to make
the members Of both ConrentionS at home in the
city Of Brotherly Love.
