gagged in serving subpoenas upon the wit

much attention. Wilkins and Butler it is

The special agents of the Treasury De-
partment caught the men, so they have
claimed, and will testify, in the act of
scraping off the stamps with iron imple-
ments, and confiscated the indictments
which contained the names of the destroyed
stamps The Philadelphia grand jury re-
turned an indictment against Wilkins and
Butler and from that time Wilkins made
most vigorous efforts to escape prosecution
in the present case, as he has escaped IT
many times before, by paying a sum of
money into the internal revenue bureau of
the Treasury Department as compro-
mise.
So Far Unsuccessful.
Up TO the present time, however. Wilkins
has been unsuccessful. In November last

son and Monroe The three presided
over the destinies of the nation during
the first twenty-four years of .he present
century, Jefferson from 1871 TO 1909. Madi-
son from 1903 to 1917. and Monroe from
1917 to 1926
Jefferson was not only the author of
1776, of the Declaration of Independence,
in 1898 of reciprocity, and later the
founder of the University of Virginia.
His statesmanship was always con-
structiye.
Madison, the second Democratic Presi-
dent, was the principal author, advocate,
and historian of the Constitution which
Gladstone justly termed, ''the most won
derful work ever struck off at a given
time by the brain and purpose of man. :"
Monroe, the third Democratic President,
was the author of the Monroe doctrine,
which is so dear to all Americans, and
has become part of the unwritten law
of the Western Hemisphere.
These three master minds formulated
and perfected the principles of the party,
principles which are founded on eternal
truths. and will be safe guide for any
nation and any age, as long as Demo-
cratic government exists upon the face
OF the earth.
The times., 1898-09-25

In 1900 Thomas Jefferson was elected the
first Democratic President of the United
States, and in that remarkable state pa
per-his inaugural address-which was a
model of constructive craftsmanship, he
formulated and first presented to the
world the fundamental principles of the
new party.
The year 1900 will, therefore. be the CEN
tenary of Jeffersonian Democracy. and
should be duly commemorated by the
party which is pre-eminently the party
of the people, and for the people.
The year 1900 is also the date of the next
Presidential election, and will naturally
revive a widespread interest in the his
tory, principles, and works of that great
American and apostle of Democracy.
II will inaugurate a Jeffersonian era,
just as the year 1892 revived the memories
of Columbus. and his great work. the dis
covery of the New World
1t will be the dividing line between the
Democracy Of the first century and that
of the second. which is destined to be the
international era of the Republic
It will also mark the close of the nine
teenth and the beginning of the TWEEN

THE FIRST DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

In Jefferson's first inaugural was a
comprehensive. but concise, statement of
the principles of Constitutional govern
ment. which became the first platform
of the party, and will ever be it's chief
corner stone. 1t is as follows:
"AbOut to enter, feIIOw-citixens,

LIBERTY, EQUALITY, EXPANSION
The Net Results of a Hundred Years of Democratic
Civilization Ordained By the Fathers
of the Country.

The Christian doctrine of international
peace and good viii will, during that
great anniversary, be the favorite theme
of the press and pulpit, congresses and
parliaments.
In brief, the year will open a new
chapter in the history of civilization, and
compel the consideration of the most mo-
mentous questions relating to our diplo-
matte and commercial relations with the
outside world.
It is. therefore, well to refresh our
memories in regard to the fundamental
principles of Jeffersonian Democracy, and
see if they are adaptable and adequate to
the solution of the national and inter-
national problems of progressive Amer
lea. and this progressive and marvellous
