z In that fine book, Lecky's Map OF

No one can study the anonymous
press without perceiving how large
part of 1t is employed systematically,
persistently and deliberately in fos-
tering class, or race, or international
hatreus, and often in circulating alb
solute falsehoods. Many newspapers
VIGOROUSLY depend for their existence
on such appeals, and more than any
ether Instruments they inflame and
perpetuate those permanent animosi
. ties which most endanger the peace of
mankind. The fact that such newspa
pers are becoming in many countries
the main and almost exclusive read
ing of the poor, forms the most seri-
Gus deduction from the value of pop
ular education. How many books
have attained POPULARITY, how many
Z seats in parliament have been won,
how many posts of influence and prof
1t have been attained, by appealing to
such passions! Often they disguise
themselves under the lofty names of
patriotism and nationality, and men
whose whole lives have been spent in
sowing class hatreds and dividing
kindred nations may be found mas
querading under the name of patriots,
and have played no small part on the
stage of politics. The deep-seated
'sedition, the fierce class and national
, hatreds that run through European
life would have very different inten-
sity from what they now unfortunate
ly have, if they had not been artificial
ly stimulated and fostered through
purely selfish motives by writing DEM
agogues, working for venial press.
