san foes"

IN recognition of the fact that the

FALLEN on your shoulders as the un.
questioned leader of our party, the

Ventlon assembled, have directed me to
send you the following resolution of
appreciation and greeting:
ne Democratic party, assembled in

Wilson has occupied and by his char
acter, learning and power has adorned
the highest Offices in the gift of his
countrymen.
He has initiated and secured the
adoption OF great progressive measures
of immeasurable value and benefit to
the people of the United States.
"As the Commander in Chief of the
Army and Navy of the United States,
he has led the patriotic forces of his
country through the most momentous
struggle in history, and, without check,
reserve or retardation, to an honor

liberty and democracy xon by the

We hail these achievements, sir,

I'VE rejoice in the recovery of your
health and strength after months of
suffering and affection which you have
borne with courage and without COM

Resents Malignant Onset
I'VE deeply resent the malignant

bequest of Count Paolo Bajnotti,
Of Turin, the income from which
would have been devoted annually
