With 1025 there began a series of American sesquicentennials which continues to command the attention of- the world. They mark the beginning of the United States of America. Americans are Interested. For world history, as well as American history, was made at Lexington and Concord April 19, 1775 ; at Cambridge July 3, 1775 ; at Philadelphia July 4, 1770; at Vincennes February 25, 1779; at Yorktown October 9, 1781; at Paris September 3, '783. Born in those fateful nine years of revolution, our nation today, after 150 years of perseverance and progress, is the most favored on earth, the most powerful, the wealthiest. So much has been taken here as a matter of course that it seems hard to realize that this anniversary is celebrated in the very England from which liberty was wrested, and that observances of it are officially ordered in many lands beyond the seas. The Fourth of July has become international in scope, for it has changed the governments of nations whose capitals are far from Independence hall. llad not the ideas of government held by the colonists been essentially British there would probably never have been any Declaration of Independence. It is as natural for the Briton to demand his rights as It Is for him to, live. The war of the Revolution was largely due to the fact that the three thousand miles of water between London and the colonies caused parliament to lose sight of the ties of consanguinity and of race. Although the original thirteen colonies were so essentially English in thought and feeling they had never actually been established by England as a national enterprise. The only one which had ever received any official aid whatever wa3 Georgia, and that was not sufficient to carry any such feeling of dependence as is essential for the preservation of intimate colonial relations. The right to colonize the North American continent had been granted by charters from a British king. According to the feudal system, which was then rapidly becoming effaced, the king owned all the land and distributed it among various favored vassals. The sovereign In the same way regarded the New World as If it had been won by the sword. The most extravagant ideas prevailed with regard to the wealth of the American lands. It was at one time soberly believed in England that gold and silver and precious stones could be had for the taking and that the natives were the possessors of fabulous wealth. The king gave the charters in most cases with the idea that he would profit greatly from mines which would yield enormous returns to the royal exchequer. When the colonists came here they found It necessary to make good their titles either by peaceful bargains with the Indians or by force of arms. From the very first the spirit of Independence was fostered, for fiefs which had to be maintained by constant vigilance and negotiations and by show of force did not carry with them a deep sense of obligation. Indeed, even at that early day, although for the throne the colonists entertained feelings of loyalty and devotion, a shrewd Idea was abroad that the king did not really own the land which he had bestowed by his charter. The conquest of nature and of the savages begot a rugged independence which as the years went by became more and more distasteful to the authorities in England. Richard Henry Lee, of Virginia, offered the independence resolution in June, 1776, and a committee was appointed to draft the Declaration, consisting of Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman and Robert Livingston. Jefferson wrote the document, and alterations were made principally at the suggestion of Franklin and Adams. The paper was submitted to congress on June 28. It was laid on the table until July 1, when nine colonies voted in favor of it se ALLENS FOOT-EAS- E LeRoy,N.Y.

The other members of the congress did not sign it until August 2, and the Impressive scene connected with the signing was not witnessed until nearly a month later, although It is popularly associated with the Fourth of July. Centuries of the progress of the rights of man bear witness In the Declaration. That all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain Inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, was not new, for it was recognized at Sinai. That governments derive their Just powers from the consent of the governed had been stated and restfed in many ways since the beginning of the colonies. Thomas Jefferson was criticised at the time for lack of originality in the Declaration. The document gained all the greater force from truths. Never was its statement of there a more masterly presentation of a bill of grievances than Is contained In the Declaration, which "submits the facts to a candid worW. In 1876 the one hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence was celebrated with Impressive exercises both in New York and Philadelphia. In 1820 was celebrated the fiftieth anniversary. Several of the original signers of the immortal document were still alive, although unable on account of extreme age to take part In the exercises to which they had been bidden. New Y'ork had a grand procession and a barbecue in the square now named after Washington, at which 10,000 persons were present. Josiah Quincy was the orator of the day in Boston, and addresses also were made by Webster and Peabody. And now in 1926 we have the Sesquicentennial exposition at Philadelphia, open from June 1 to December 1. To it will come the nations of the with us in our celebration,1 world which has been designed to demonstrate that what fifty years ago was merely potential Is today an accomplished fact.
