ference with the principal Democratic

that the Democratic national commit

and the Democratic congressional cam

mOny.
Statement by President Hearst.
At the close of the conference Presi-
dent Hearst issued the following:
To the Democratic clubs and sOeie-
ties of the United States: Recent
events in the history of the United
States point to the approaching ami
versary of the birthday of the nation as
a day that should be celebrated with
special favor this year. There are
those in the nation who seeek to create
the impression that the American peo-
pie have outgrown their love for the
just principles of government expressed
in the Declaration of independence, and
are ready to surrender their moral
leadership among nations in order TO
crafty a newly born instinct for i'm
perial power, founded on colonial sys-
TEN.
Clubs Urged TO Assemble.
'All the Democratic clubs and socie-
ties are earnestly requested to. assemble
on the Fourth of July and all patriotic
citizens, regardless of past party af-
hiiations, are urged to join with them
in a new pledge Of fidelity to the re-
public as the fathers made it. Let the
people of the United States unite in
their various cities, towns and villages
IN demonstration of the confidence
they feeel in the form of government
under which the nation has grown to
its present greatness. The danger
which threatens the country is real and
imminent. 1t seems appropriate there
fore, that citizens who believe that the
Declaration 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 colonies
under the American flag.
