true to the principles in which we
have been bred. They are not the
principles Of a province nor single

principles Of a liberated mankind.
These, therefore. are the things we
stand for, whether in war or in

All Nations Interested.
That oil nations are equally inter-
ested in the peace Of the world and
the political stability Of free people
and equally responsible for their
maintenance;
That the essential principle Of
peace is the actual equality Of ma
lions in all matters Of right or privi-

That peace cannot securely or just
~ rest upon an armed balance OF
power;
That governments derive all their
Just powers from the consent OF the
governed, and that no other powers
should be supported BY the common
thought. purpose or power Of the
family of nations;
That the seas should be equally
free and safe for the use of all peo-
pies, under rules set up by common
agreement and consent, and that, so
far as practicable, they should be &C
cessible to all upon equal terms;
That national ornaments should
be limited to the necessities Of ma
tional order and domestic safety;
That the community Of interest
and of power upon which peace must
henceforth depend imposes upon each
nation the duty of seeing to 1t that
all influences proceeding from its own
citizens meant to encourage or assist
revolution in other states should be
sternly and effectually suppressed
and prevented.

providence, let US hope. be purged
of faction and division, purified
of the errant humors Of party

stand forth in the days to come
with a new dignity Of national
pride and spirit.
Let each man see to 1t that the
