that are for their own good. The day
has passed when the American people
can be aroused to attack an existing
order OF things merely by the cry Of
a ranter that conditions are insurer
able. They have come to know from
bitter experience what are really re-
forms and what are movements which
would utterly destroy the economic
fabric OF the nation merely to rid them
selves of minor abuses. 1t makes con-
siderable difference who advocates the
reforms. President Roosevelt's denun-
citation of an abuse demands instant
attention. When Mr.. Bryan declaims
ones mind reyerts on the instant to
the false alarms for which he has been
responsible. He denounced the gold
standard once and later saw immedi-
ate destruction to the nation in an al
legged imperialistic tendency of the adj
ministration. There is no question but
what reforms are popular and will re-
ceive the support of the people If the
leaders in the reform movements have
records of success in their persecution
and have not reputation of seeing
dangers where none exist.
