racy of half a century or a century ago.
In the newer states nothing like caste

elementary form in Kentucky, and in a
somewhat more pronounced degree among

other towns of Louisiana. The infuex

IMPOVERISHED by that war, or OF persons
in their caste who sought to better thlr

Breckenridges, who held themselves TO a
considerable extent aloof from the masses

however, except as they were fostered by
slavery. gradually disappeared even In
Kentucky and they vanished altogether

the monarchial countries, has never OBJ

illustrates the hostility to class distinctions
which has been felt by the people from the

of European writer's that wealth is wor-

wealth is an effectual barrier here to ex-

who was ever President was Washington,
and, of course, he stood so far above all
the rest of his countrymen of his time that
he was independent Of all such disqualih-
cations or impediments as either wealth
or poyertv could bring. The feeling of
the masses of the people of the United
States on the question of aristocracy Is
well expressed in these lines of John g.
