 The author of the resolution had this to say about it:
 If half of what MT. Andrew says is true, then the state of things in the treasury department has developed in to a positive travesty. An investiga- tion might develop the fact that the whole machinery of the government has been thrown into the state of chaos, confusion and strife which has overwhelmed the affairs of the admin istration as the result of the upheaval in the republican party of the nation.

THE DAY OF LIBERTY

Our eyes on all days of the year
 May gaze on the foreigners things, And envy may thrill us to look at the pomp And purple paraded by kings. Perhaps may long for title or two, With the nobes of Europe to vie, And some gay decorations to pin to coats, But not on the Fourth of July. It IS then that we love to repeat to the world The story of Lbertys brth And how in the sheltering folds of her robe There is room for the whole of the earth. It is then that from mansion and cottage alike Her coors stream out to the sky, While the North and the South, and the East and the West,
 All welcome the Fourth of July Behold all the cattle that darken the hills, The grains, and the fruits and the flowers, The snow of the cotton, the gold of the corn, The mills and the mines that are ours This glorious heritage, fertile and fair, That the wealth of no monarch can buy, Forever bequeathes to the of the free, Was signed the Fourth of July. So fling out the banners from basement to roof, And send up the rockets in space, In letters of fire on the blackboard of night The date of our freedom to trace, And salute with the thunders of cannon and drum The shades of our heroes gone by, Who died for the rights that we cherish today, And gave us the Fourth of July.
