We take the above caption from the New York Evening

When in the course Of human events 1t becomes ne
cesary for people to dissolve the political bands
which have connected them with another, and to assume

We hold these truths TO be selfeyiden that all men

with certain unalenable rights that among these are
life liberty and the pursuit of happiness; that TO
these Ychts governments instituted among men, de
irving their just powers from the consent Of the governed
that whenever any form Of government becomes de-

alter or to abolish It, and to institute government
LAYING its foundation such principles and organising
its powers in such FORM to them shall seem most likely
to effect their safety and happiness Prudence, indeed
will dictate that governments Long established should
not be changed for light and transient causes and ac-

more disposed to suffer- while evils suaerabc than to
right themselves by abolishing tho forms to which they
are accustomed But when long train OF abuses apa
