LETTER FROM HARDING.
(By Associated Press

My 1ASSoSioISu IeSS-J
 Danbury, Aug. - Governor Hol- comb, Lieutenant Governor Wilson and many other state officers and other men prominent in Republican councils in Connecticut are attending a dinner being given in othe automo- bile show building at the Danbury Fair Grounds this afternoon, as testimonial to Congressman Schuyler Merritt of Stamford. Ex-Congress- man Walter N. Chandler of New York. Senator Frank B. Brandegee and Congressman Merritt of this state, and Miss Helen Boswell of New. ork, are the principal speakers.
 The following letter from Senator Harding, Republican presidential nominee, was read:
 Referring to your recent letter concerning your celebration in honor of Congressman Schuyler Merritt, to be held August 4. I wish you would convey to those who attended this af- fair my cordial greetings and best | wishes.
 | Permit me also to say that the spirit of Republicanism was never | more pronounced than it is now. r By ] every token that comes to me, I read | a determination resolved upon vic | tory. I can ascribe this feeling to
 
 tions that confront the nation. Our i people want to return to constitu- | tional government. They formal peace that our affairs may be adjust | ed to a tranquil state from which l they may measure the future. But we want peace that is real 1 and not imaginary; a peace based up on fixed and determined basis, that maintains and recognizes our own dearly bought heritages that came | with our independence; that inde- pendence we propose maintaining un- der all circumstances and at all cost, and we shall not be beguiled into a | surrender of our sovereign rights by any spacious scheme, however it may appeal to our fancy, that does not contain a clear definition of our au- thority over our destinies and the lives of our youth. Such a policy in- vites the cordial support of all re- gardless to previous party affiliations and especially appeals to the instinc- tive patriotism of the young men and | wOmen.'
