American independence! The theme
never grows old. Each generation, as it
comes forward TO assume the responsible
ties of citizenship, shall turn to that period
when our country was small and feeble,
but her sons sturdy and heroic, and shall
heed with what resolve the signers of the
Declaration stood for the rights of man the
world over.

THE report of the committee on ere
dentfals last night which enrolled all
appointed delegates properly accredit-

gave especial point to the report of the

many delegates are present, all the

less than ten, no matter what the

The committee on permanent organi-

from each state to be named by it's dele
cation. The present secretary, NJ. G.

Of the committee On resolutions, with
Congressman w. j. Bryan, Of Nebraska
as chairman, and e. A. Marshall, OF

certainty that the matter will go beyond
this. In the convention there is strong
element in favor of International free

will be strong enough to overcome
both these elements cannot be told.
Yet there is a certainty that the main
struggle will be on this portion of

the ballot will not be a brief one.
