THE UNAMIOUS DECLARATION OP THE THIRTEEN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. (Adopted by the Continental Congress July 2, and authenticated and pro- claimed July 4, 177G.) When In the course of human events It becomes necessary for one peo- ple to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth the seperate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitled them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal ; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unallenable rights ; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness ; that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their Just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, It Is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying Its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happlnes3. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forma to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usur- pations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, It is their right, it Is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their futur© security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies, and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated Injuries and usurpations, all having In direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let fact* be submitted to a candid world: He has refused his assent to laws the most! wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of imim'dlato and pre»e- lng Importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained, and, when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to,1 them. 4 Declaration of Independence. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature—a right Inestimable to them, and form- idable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncom fortable, and distant Horn the respository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly for opposing, with manly firmness, his Invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused, for a lqng time after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected ; whereby the legislative powers, Incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise ; the state remain- ing, In the meantime, exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without and convulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states, for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners ; refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither, and raising the con- ditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the military independent of, and superior to, the civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution and unacknowledged by our laws, giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation— For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment for any mur- ders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states ; For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world ; For imposing taxes on us without our consent; For depriving us, in many caseaj of the benefits of trial by jury ; For transporting us beyond seas, to be tried for pretended offenses ; For abolishing the free system of English laws In a neighboring province; establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries, so as to render It at once an example and fit Instrument for Introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies ; For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments ; For suspending our own legislatures, ami declaring themselves Invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

    SIX PK IN III UUVKHNOII OF IOWA. .JANUARY 18, 1896 TO JAN DART 13, 189&. FRANCIS MARION DRAKF. x BY W. II. B^LEMTSTG. Francis Marion Drake, governor of the State 1896-1898, departed this life November 20, 1903, in the seventy-third year of his age. Thus closed the earthly career of a worthy man, one of Iowa's most notable philanthropists. Governor Drake was descended from James Drake, who went from the colony of Virginia to that of North Carolina in the eighteenth century. Sev- eral of the family have been notable characters in the history of Nash county, North Carolina, in both colony and State, as they were also in the war of the Revolution. James Drake's son Benjamin married Celia Thayer. Their son, John Adams, born in 1802, married Harriet J. O'Neil, and after a briof resi- dence in Tennessee, removed to Illinois, where, in Sehuyler county, their second son, Francis Marion, was born December 30,18H0. In 1837, Mr. John Drake moved with hi-family across the Mississippi river into Lee county, then Wis- consin territory, and settled at Fort Madison, then recently laid out. Here Mr. Drake, besides enjoying a successful busine-s career, was justice of the peace, and also probate judge. In 1846, he removed with his family to Davis county, territory of Iowa, where he founded the town of Drakesville Here young Francis attended district school as he had at Fort Madison. He was sub- sequently in his father's employ until 1852, when with a train of two wagons (each drawn by eight oxen), and accompanied by five men and a boy, he took the overland route to California.
