DEFINING PATRIOTISM.
From the Toronto Globe.

From the Toronto Globe.
Jingoism may be perverted patriotism
but patriotism itself hardly admits
of so brief a definition. 1t compre-
hends the entire range of human
virtues applied to national affairs,
although it is often used In mar
rover sense. We say one is patriotic who
is willing to fight for his country; but
while this is well. the occasions for
fighting are few and far between, and
the main work of patriotism must be
building up of a country worth lighting
for. A legislature or government is ask
ed to take some action that Is supposed
to involve international considerations;
and we are asked to make approval of
that law the test of every mans patriot
ism. This test is not only partial but
unsafe, because while some persons may
support the law from patriotic motives
others may do so from a mere desire to
take the popular side of question, to
float easily with the stream.
The essentials of patriotism are mat
ters upon which all good citizens can
agree. Whatever strengthens the indi-
vidual, whatever tends to produce sound
minds and sound bodies, strengthens the
state. The refoimers through whose ef-
forts there has been a marked diminu-
ton of the drink evil in the last half
century were patriots in the highest
sense, for they not only made this coun-
try better worth fighting for, but by
increasing the sum of physical and mo-
raj force they enhanced the countrys
powers of defence to an extent equal to
the addition of many battalions. Every
act of self-restraint, every preference of
duty to pleasure, is patriotic from the
same point of view; for every one who
makes the choice of Hercules receives

strength, and the country shares the
gain. system of education that raises
the intellectual power of a people is
truly national, and everyone who labors
in that field Is engaged in a patriotic
work. But 1t is hardly just to single
out vocation here and there for recog-
milton, for no man works only for himself
or even only for his family, and If his
work is honest, be 1t in office, field or
factory, 1t is clearly public service
There Is reason in John Ruskin's propo-
sition that workingman has as much
right to pension as a soldier.
True patriotism must be founded upon
free institutions, just laws and honest
government. Too often the attempt is
made in the name of patriotism to pro-
mote some expenditure of money that
cannot be otherwise defended. There are
or course expenditures that are really
national and necessary; but what we
are apt to overlook is that economy
may be source of national strength,
and that reducing national debt may be
truly patriotic duty. Fair criticism of
a government. however severe, is patri-
otic, for 1t helps not only to protect the
taxpayer but to make national institu-
tions objects of national pride. If we
could conceive of community with laws
absolutely just we could conceive of pat
riotism in its highest form.
