sooner or later deplore (? Are not the

The journalist and he who makes it a
particular object to closely scan the
course of affairs here and elsewhere are
brought face to face with the TACT of
the changes that have and are taking
place daily in the ideas and aspirations
of the masses of the people. 1t goes
undisputed that the doctrine that
wealth and property have duties and
responsibilities other than looking af-
ter their own increase and preser vation
has been entirely forgotten by those
who possess them. But literature has
grown to teeming proportions Of late,
which treats the wealth aud property
created by the many and exploited BY
the few as something belonging by
right to all, exclusively to none. The
time has come when individualism in
