Answer:

By establishing the source of the representatives’ authority

Explanation:

Ethos is a mode of persuasion that uses or mentions a source or figure that shows credibility, expertise or prestige in order to convince an audience that the information given is reliable, valid, or worth listening.

So, by establishing the source of the representatives’ authority: "the good People of these Colonies", which shows that the declaration of independence comes from the ideas of good people, Thomas Jefferson is using ethos as a rhetorical appeal.
