To the htlitor of the Br.E : In ix discus-

nml unpntriutio courao of tlio domocrritlc
rty.l w < 3 Informed for tlio ten thous
andth time that "Tlios. Jefferson , the
atlicr and author of the Declaration of
independence , was tlio founder and
irogenilor of the democratic party. "
This ImS been repeated so often by the
Icmocrattc party that It has almost bo-
comu an axiom , whilst in truth and in
act the Declaration of Independence
vns written moro than ono hundred
cars before the Fourth of July , 1770.
' . will not deny that perhaps Mr.Jcfl'orson
vis : In some way responsible for organ-
zing tlio opposition to John Adams and
Aaron IJurr to mnko himself president ,
jy such methods as buying the vote of
Tnmes F. Uayaril ( then a member of the
louse of roorescntatlvcs , tlio grandfather -
father of the present secretary of
state ) pnying for his vote for that
ligh ollice by nominating him
o the senate for minister to
France , and in that way and by such
nethods well-earned the naino of
'Father of the Democratic Party. " The
History of the struggle of the continental
.ongress in its cflorts and the efforts of
Jio people to dissolve their relations with
Great Britain , ran through many years
dating as far back as 1701.
The ideas set forth in tlio Declaration
of Independence were not new , and in
act several paragraphs of that great
> rotcst can bo found in the "Hill of
lights , " granted by William and Mary ,
m the lUth day of February. 1033. soon
liter James 11 ilod to Franco , ami later
linn this it passed both houses of par-
lament , when William and Mary had
jeoii crowned.
Whilst ou this subject a full review of
tiio great documents , that might bo
called tlio antecedents or predecessors of
he Declaration of Independence , citron-
ilogically examined , will fairly illustrate
tlic progress of science of self govern-
iicnt. until \yivlind ourself with a system
that scoim'to be tlioacmo of the science ,
which has'dono so much to rfecuro civil
unl religious liberty , not only in this
: ountryTjut in Franco , and. by the in-
ihiunco'of which wo will ono day , not fur
oft" , hail Irolalul as the second natural
oilsprmg of the American republic.
"THE MAGN'A CHAUTA , "
or great chatter obtained by the people
of lingland , with arms in their hands
iigain.st King John , was tlio lirst
jilbrt of a people to assert the inalien
ble rights of man. Tlio second was
: he reign of his son and successor ,
llenry Hi , where this charter with other
declarations was enacted by parliament ;
and again in the reign of Edward I , by
statute culled "conlirmatio custorium , "
whereby the great charter is directed to
be allowed as the common law. Copies
of this instrument wore sent to all cathe
dral churches , and It was directed that it
should be read , at least twice each
year , that the people might know
what were their rights , and know
ing them would watch them
with grout diligence and jealousy.
In tlio reign of Edward III. there
wore several declaratory acjsdelining the
rights and privileges of the subject ,
touching his duties and relation to the
crownand , kingdom , all of them being
encroachments upon the despotic author
ity of the crown and beneficial to the
abject.
The second grand advance towards
self-government was in the rojgn of
Charles I , .soon after his coronation.
when the "Petition of Rights" was
drawn up , presented to Charles , and ho
gave it Ins assent tind signature. It was
termed "A Parliamentary Declaration of
the Liberties of the People. " This in
strument coniirmcd to the citi/.cn many
concessions , rights arid privileges that
had been before unknown. This was fol
lowed boon after by an net that did moro
to prepare for and establish personal lib
erty than any that had ever adorned the
statute book of any country , which was
the act that dissolved and abolished the
star chamber. It occurred just before
that unfortunate prince became entan
gled in that rupture with his parliament
whereby lie lost his. head.
Tlio next act in review of the progress
of the right ot personal security , which
is the lirst object of organized govern
ment , was the enactment of the law that
asserts and .secures to individuals personal
liberty. It was the passage of
THE IIAHEAS COKI'US ACT ,
which pa.ssed the lioiiio of commons
during the reign of Charles II. on the 1st
day ot April , " 1028. There hail been fre
quent resolves and assertions in tlio lion.se
of commons on tins subject , but the bar
ons , always viewing such acts as a
menace and encroachment on the aris
tocracy , were slow to reeogni/.o them ,
but at this time it seems they could not
longer resist what the progress of civili-
xntion demanded with so much unanim
ity through the nearer representatives of
tlui people.
As a proof that the people wore not
slowly progressing toward self-govern
ment , tutor the death of Charles 11. , his
brother , the duke of York , became
king as James II. This prince
had nardly been crowned when
ho began a series of innovations
upon the written and unwritten constitu
tion oi England , lie levied bottomry ,
kept a larger army than was necessary ,
imprisoned people without duo process of
law , prorogued parliament and did not
convene them for two yours , and did
many other acts that rendered him ox-
'
trem'oly unpopular. Tlio result of it
till was that when the prince ot Orange
came to England ho hud an easy con-
( | iie.it , anil James went in cxilo to Ills
friend , Louis , king of Franco , where ho
died some , years uf forwards. Then came
the acccfslon of William and Mury with
TUB "HILI , OK ltir.lir.-i. "
This state paper was moro ampin and
complete than any that hud over been
produced. It embodied the ideas thai
liivd been formulated and expressed in all
the others. It was a perfect compilation
of all charters , grunts , resolves and as
surances that , were contained in the En
glish constitution , " with now and more
prt nounci'd expressions for civil and re
ligious liberty , Concerning the author ol
"tlio bill of rights" there has never been
any dispute , and that our declaration ol
independence was taken from "tho billol
rights" no ono who has over road both
documents will deny.
After William ami Mary had been de
clared king and < ] tieeii , but before them
coronation , parliament in behalf of the
people who had been so sorely oppressed
demanded borne assurancu and security
iiguinst oppronaivo acts of the orown
Thu kin" informed them that he wa :
read ) ' to do ( ho will of the people , am
whatever they desired he would assent to
Then the question arose who should draw
the paper. Uontick , who had como over
with William , was suggested , but will
the keen foresight that seems to have
guided the prince of Orange in most matters
tors , urged that they select some one o
their number or some ono more familial
witli the desires of the people. Then
they begun to cast about among tlieui
solves , and they selected a man who bu
a short time before had been a common
barrister about the Old liuiloy and IJu
coin's Inn Court ; , and ? omo authors huyo
denominated him as a brlullcss barrister
ip to the time that lie rendered himself'
10 famous in the defense of the seven
mhops. Ills success in that trial was
onn of these "jerks" in thn
nunals of men that so seldom
occurs. Ho was at once snatched
HI ) M I'KXfltV , roVKHTT AXD H.EDIANI9M
0 a condition of wealth , afllucnco and
> owor. Ho took rank with thc- greatest
neil in the realm and maintained this
lositlrm until his death. "Tho Hill of
tights , " the offspring of his genius and
tisdom remains to-day as unparalleled
'or ' iu terseness and compactness of
deas and independence of expression ,
whilst as a literary production It far sur-
tnssed any state paper of that day. Tlio
words are monosylablo , for the use of
compound and derivative words had not
hen been adopted to ono tenth the ex
tent they are of this day. The pronouns
and verbs were always used in the per
son and tense literally , not as they are
low. And whilst ttioy are a little harsh
( Hid not so euphonious upon the nar , j-ct
students of literature in reading of an
cient chivalry , prowess and genius prefer
, ho works of that day , not because they
jossess the Greek or Latin idioms , but
there is that definite and unerring ex-
iression of thought In every word and
10 much moro pleasing than verbos-
ty and pentcnccs of doubtfpj meaning
Or susceptible of double constructions.
The history of the trial of the seven
lisliops was of itself another strid * in
advance of the old and settled routine ,
standard and fixed law that not only do-
> rivcd so many persons of their liberty
> ut their lives as well. This was a con
firmation of lliu law that made juries in
criminal cases the solo judges of the law
and the f.icts. Tlio court instructed the
urv to bring in a verdict of guilty , the
ury disregarded thn instructions ami the
sourt at-once ordered them to prison for
contempt. Vaughun was chief justice of
lie realm , and the jury so imprisoned
vero roloaj-ed upon a writ ot habeas cor-
HIS , whereby Vaughan so distinguished
limself that ho is recognized as a jurist
of the highest standard and most impar-
iul justice.
A few years after this , soon after the
1 cath of Marythcro was another marked
mil essential progress in the direction of
civil liberty , and the liberty of conscience.
n 1085 was ro-cnacted tlio licensing not
and it expired in 10U3 , and was renewed ,
nit with grer.t opposition with only
about five majority. On tlio third of May ,
10U5 , the law which
SUBJECTED THE VHHSS TO A CENSORSHIP
expired. Then there was but one news-
taper in London , the London Gazette.
n two weeks afterward tlio Intelligence
) omcstle and Foreign uppor.rcd , which
mil boon suppressed about fifteen years
) ofore. In a few days came the English
Covenant , the Packet Boat , the Pegasus ,
ho London News Letter , the London
Post , the Flying Post , the Old Post
Master the Post Hey , the Post Man , nil
within three months , and within a year
there wcro ono hundred and ten daily
mil weekly papers in London. Censor-
"hip wa" established later , but this great
nedium of educating tlio people being
once permitted could not eu.sily be sur-
iresscd , and not until the works of
Theodore Hughes appeared with all the
scandals and secret history of the court
of George IV was its entire freedom
) crnianentlv established , when it became
iccossary for the friends of the court to
uiy up the whole edition to prevent
ts circulation , being equal in
: hat peculiar touic to the secret'
listory of the lirst empire.
To return to tlio main question. In order
: o bo convinced ami to know how far and
low near the Declaration of Independence
resembles and is copied from the several
charters , grants anil the bill of rights , it
is only necessary to consult Laiurmoad's
Constitutional History of England , the
journal of the two houses of parliament
in 1(130 ( , and a book called Gray's Debates ,
published about that time , in all of which
is the original text of tiioso instruments ,
iieh can be found in the congressional
library at Washington. Langnioad can
he purchased of Brown & Littleton , of
Boston. Tom Paine , ( author of the Ago of
Keason , the Crisis and tlio Rights of Alan )
was in Philadelphia at the time the
continental congress was preparing tlio
declaration. He being well known as a
litteruti , and : i man above all thing of an
independent nature , and being lamiliar
with all this subject , at once produced
conies , and tins with the similarity of
verbiage and ideas leaves no doubt that
the Declaration of Independence was
taken from the bill ot rights. The aver
age American eiti/.en thinks and
believes , that by ono grand great
patriotic ctlort the Declaration
of Independence and the constitution of
the United States came into existence.
Tlio truth is , that all the long eventful
curs that commenced with the reign of
! li/.ubcth and ended with the inaugura
tion ot George .Washington on the ; itli ( )
day of April , 1780 , on the corner of Nas
sau and Wall streets in Now York city ,
as president of the United States , were
preparing for
Till : KIltTH OK THE 1IEITIIMC.
So it was that thostudentof the science
of government and the progress ot eivili-
/ation requires no vivid imagination to
conceive of the glory and grandeur of
tlio magnificent fabric under winch wo
live. Tillers , in ISM , wrote his History of
the French Revolution. In the last page
ho predicted that France must and would
bo self-governed. He had witnessed the
death ot Louis XVI , the fall of the Bu -
tile , the assassination of the Princess Do
Lamhcll , an exile most of the lirst em

the'liitlior banks of the. Rhine , or from over
the borders of Belgium ha had seen the
brilliancy of the lirst empire rejected
on every sky , lie saw the recall of the
Bourbons to bo succeeded bv the second
onipiro , and vet ho said , ' 'Franco would
bo free. " He lived to bo In 1871 the first
president of the French republic.

traveling over the old government road
toward Fort Heno. The country is somewhat -
what monotonous , but wo cross many
streams nnd the soil in tlio little vnlloys
looks rich. OK to our right are the
famous Black Hills , whllo to the Icfi rlso
the BlgHorn mountains. Thn country is
rolling , but the ascent gradual. Our
course lies over n series ! of high ridges ,
and as wo rca'ch the summit we discover
they are dpurs of the great Big Horns.
The mountains nro saddle-shaped and
extend for n hundred miles soutlionntuiul
northwcsti The saddle htis a pommel ,
and that in Pumpkin butto. Having
passed the ridges , which are the spurs
putting out from the southeastern basoof
the Uig Horns , wo cross Dry Fork of
Powder rlvor. It runs down for about
twenty miles , bringing up against the
mountains. It is sparsely timbered with
scraggy oaks and cottonwoods. The
trees are low , squatty , gnarled and con
torted. They seem to have started out
all right , but lacked moisture to grow up
tall. The timber is lit for nothing hero
but fuel. On ono of the trees somebody
had cut a bare spot , and on the white
wood carved in rude letters , "II. Martin-
Killed by Indians , August in , ISO ) . " It
was ono of the legends so familiar in the
northwest. Poor follow !

however , after death as if surrounded by
the monuments of Greenwood cemetery.
Far from homo and friends , it is true , but
the ancient cottonwool ! standsguard over
his lonely grave , and the owl and tlio
coyote sing him nightly n lullaby. Tills
valley had n bad reputation in early days
when Hcd Cloud was hostile and the
traveler was always ciiuUoned by the
post commander to look out for danger
there nnd leave it behind us soon as pos
sible. It is lined with graves , and as
many as forty frontiersmen are said to
hiivo fallen there nt dill'ercnt times , vic
tims to the fury of savage foes.V hen
Beldcn went up no picked up a skull near
the road with an arrow head sticking in
it just behind where tiio left ear had
been. The arrow told its own tale mur
dered by Indians. It was the old story
over asain , and they hunted for the bones
of the body , hut found only a iiilo of
ashes and ono knee joint. He had prob
ably been badly wounded by the arrow
aim then btirnotl at the slake. When
Braillcy came through ho found five
skeletons in this valley dug up by wolves ,
and ho rebtiried them. When we were
up wo found a piece of board , which had
once been part of the tailgate of an army
wagon. The blue paint was still on ono
shlo ot it , and on the other was written
in mile characters ,
"XACII HUSTKO IinilK. "
Who Zach Husted was or just where
his grave was 'wo did not know , for the
board was lying on the ground and there
seemed to be no grave there. We , how-
jvur , hot the board up , and Zich : ean find
'it when ho rises ana put it in llio right
| ) lace if We missed his remains.
This valley ot Dry Fork is really a
' 'Valley of Death."and wo shall hasten on.
We are now within six miles of Powder
river , anil 'the road suddenly turns off
Dry Fork and ascends a high ridge to our
right. WJridiiig over the hills we come
.ipon a strip of Mau Vais Tones , or Had
uui : < ls. They tire terrible , and bleak and
sterile as 'bau lands usually arc. Tlio
region is a.burned out volcano and the
earth lies' jnn ash-heaps. Not a thing
grows here , and even the jack rabbits
ind biriU. hayo abandoned this strip.
"God-forsakeii" is written on a board anil
stuck up 'at the entrance of the road to
the Bad Lands , and the description given
of the region in these two brief words is
not a bad pno. Leaving behind the blood
stained valley and riding hastily across
: ho strip of _ Bad Lands , we come to the
L'owder river , n clear , shallow stream ,
ibout fifty feet wide. It runs north and
rapidly widens as it proceeds towaril the
Yellow.stono. Crossing at a good ford we
nscctid the bank to a wide level plain and
ire at the Mte of old Fort Heno. Part of
Lhe stockade built by General Patrick
Connor in 1805 was still standing a few
years ago. The tort had been burned ,
but home of this dilapidated barracks were
still there. Pieces ot blue cloth with brass
