man of the meeting. tie read a long
telegram from the Wyoming delegation
in Utah, which was received with loud
applause, and concluded by introducing
Judge Corn OF Evanston. Judge Corn
said that in the Eighteenth century a new
people sprung upOn the horizon Of ex
istencc. Their government was unlike
the democracy of Greece and the fierce
factions which passed under that name in
the same age. Il was a distinctly new
idea in government. Among the poli-
ticians and statesmen of the day there
was one man with a mind as
high as the stars. Through him
the genius OF the government received
its best and most lucid Interpretation.
That man was Jefferson, the most per-
fe t exponent OF the most perfect govern.
ment ever known. Under Jefferson's 10
depreciation this nation is the harpiest
and most prosperous OF the face of the
earth. This is the reason, the ultimate
reason of the existence of that party
which in the earliest DAYS OF the republic
called itself the Republican party and
now proudly calls itself the Democratic
party. One hun lred years ago a new nl-
ton, based upon a distinctly new idea, was
organized; one hundred years later a new
commonwealth, Wyoming, With distinctly
new ideas invrafted upou its constitution
was organized and no more fitting time
could he chosen to celebrate the orrani-
cation Of the former han now when we
stand unon the threshold Of the latter.
