1t is alleged that Mckinley and his

Cuban postal scandals because of the
effect they may have on politics

He assumes virtue at times, to Sc
cure the vote of good men. but he
always looks to thepolitical vantage

the association of democratic clubs
and the democratic congressional
campaign committee should work in
harmony.
At the close of the conference Pres
ident Hearst issued the following to-
the democratic clubs and societies OF
the United States:
Recent events in the history of the
United States point to the approach
ing anniversary of the birthday of
the nation as day that should he
celebrated with special favor this
year. There are those in the nation
who seek to create the impression
that the American people have out
grown their love for the ust princi-
plies of government expressed in the
Declarat ton of Independence and are
ready to surrender their moral lead
ership among nations in order to
crafty a newly born instinct for inn
perial power, founded on Il colonial
system. All the democra tic clubs and
societies are earnestly requested to |
assemble on the Fourth of July, and |
all patriotic citizens, regardless of |
past party affiliations. are urged TO |
Join with them in Il new pledge OF |
fidelity to the republic as the fathers
made it. Let the people of the Unit
ed States unite i'll their various cities, |
towns and villages in a demonstra-
ton of the confidence they feel in the
form OF government under which the
nation has grown to IFS present |
greatness. The danger which threat
ems the country is zealand imminent.
1t seems appropriate, therefore. that
citizens who believe that the Decla-
ration OF Independence is not merely
an academic document should meet
together on this day and give voice
to the national sentiment that all
men are created free and equal and
that there must be no subject colo
