layman were one Gay discussing the various

q 61HE Immortality of the declaration of
independence does not rest so much
upon the originality of it's sentiments
as the oppositeness of its interpreta-
Ion OF the universal spirit of the colonists
themselves. Young Jefferson, himself, who
framed it, freely confessed his obligation to
the laws of the ancient Roman government,
ind to that other immortal document,
which is second only to the declaration in
the loftiness of its sentiment, and in its
demand for the rights of people that should
be free, magma charta, wrested from John
by the barons of old England.
1t Is great and glorious, for the reason that
has been sufficient unto every change and
peril of a fast developing people, and its
teachings have grown more potent with the
passing years. The nation has increased
from 100000 of people to $4,000, 0OO since
July 4, l776; yet, although the original docu-
ment has faded to dingy yellow, and the
ink which formed the words is no longer
egible, every word is inscribed in the mem
Dry of the people, and its every sentiment
6nds welcome place in every American
heart.
The thought of republic, the establishing
If a government by the people, whose
ruler should be the servant of those whom
he governed, was not new when Jefferson
wrote the thrilling words. But the few
republics which had existed, persisted from
the face of the earth after too brief ex-
stence. Hence, precedent and history
united in declaring that the thought of the
Kramer was impractical, if not altogether
impossible.
But 1t has been gwen to men to meet
great exigencies to peer into the future
With the keen eyes of prophts, and thus to
prearrange for the conditions to come.

mittee of which Jefferson was a member,
foretold the coming anniversary of the
Fourth of July, which should be ushered in
with the firing of guns and the ringing of
bells, and the keeping of the day in ever
lasting remembrance.
The declaration of independence, which
gave Importance to the Fourth of July, is
lot merely a protest against wrong and OPP
preston. 1t is a proclamation to all man.
kind that all men are created equal, and that

Ind of right should be free.
There was no faitering or paltering on the
part of those who adopted this remarkable
ind unique document. They did not pause
to reflect that the problem of government
by the people was as yet untried. They did
iot doubt as to the future. They believed in
he people, and in their ability to establish
ind maintain on permanent foundations a
lation that should command the respect of
the other nations, and that ultimately should
