teachings have grown more potent with the
passing years. The nation has increased
from 5000, 0OO of people to S0,000,OO since
July 4, l776; yet, although the original docu-
ment has faded to a dingy yellow, and the
ink which formed the words is no longer
legble, every word is inscribed in the mem
DRY of the people, and its every sentiment
finds a welcome place in every American
heart.
The thought of republic, the establishing
of 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 lew
republics which had existed, persisted from
the face of the earth after too brief ex-
;stenee. Hence, precedent and history
united in declaring that the thought OF the
Trainer was impractical, II not altogether
impossible.
But it has been given 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.
John Adams, himself one of the com
mittee of which Jefferson was 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
The Kinsley graphic. [volume] (Kinsley, Kan.) 1890-1940, 1902-07-04

gave importance to the Fourth of July, u
not merely protest against wrong and op-
preston. 1t is a proclamation to all man
kind that all men are created equal, and that
the states forming the federal union are
| and OF right should be free.
There was no faltering or paltering on the
part OF those who adopted this remarkable
and unique document. They did not pause
to reflect that the problem of government
by the people was as yet untried. They did
not doubt as to the future. They believed in
the people, and in their ability to establish
and maintain on permanent foundations a
nation that should command the respect of
the other nations, and that ultimately should
take foremost place among these nations.
The document, then, Is most remarkable,
as interpreting the true spirit of the people,
and as forecasting the sentiment and spirit
OF the generations as yet unborn.
1t Is easy to look backward and point out
errors which might have been avoided, but
there is that almost Divine in prevising the
temper and conduct of coming generations,
and formulating for them a form of gov
eminent that shall survive the dread shock
of civil war, contentious with foreign foes,
and to be SO pliable and admirably adjudged
as to meet every ext gency without friction
or Wreckage.
1he 1atners VINO took part IN creating the
declaration, those who voted for its adop-
ton, died, and the sons took their places.
The latter, in their turn, were gathered onto
their fathers, and third generation ap-
peared. Then came a fourth, and a fifth,
the present. That which the fathers be-
lieved to be possible, the sons and the sons
sons have demonstrated to be fact. They
have shown that nation does not demand
the succession of kings to make stable a
people, but that that governments is most
secure where the people are most free.
The years will come and the generations
will die, and be succeeded by others, but
the declaration of independence shall re-
main unchanged and unchanging, the same,
yesterday, to-day, and forever.

An OId-Time Terror.

Among ancient relics at present on exhi-
bition at Chicago, is sheet OF papyrus
bearing complaint to chief of police who
held Office just 1902 years ago, that the
premises of the writer had been robbed.
Whether the work was done by a porch
climber, duplicate key man, or n ordinary
hall sneak is not recorded, but the antique
document is suggestive that in some ways
a score of centuries has not greatly changed
the world. One can imagine that old-time
chief threatening his dusky Egyptian force
with the terrors of "shake-up." Buffalo
