visions of practical reward for their
labors. Many had been silver men
for years. nourishing distrust of Wall
street. And yet here was their man
in the White House lecturing them
about the evil OF spoils, and showing
the strongest sympathy with all the
New York ideas OF finance. Natural
ly, the question presented itself !:
'Why am l democrat?"
There are men today calling them
selves democrats quite as much puz-
| zled. They worked hard to bring
Mr.. Wilson into Office on platform
which where it has not been repu-
dated has broken down. They de-
clared that protection produced the
high cost of living. and have found
they were deceived. They declared
the republicans had been wasting
three hundred millions a year in ap-
preparations. and have found, to put
it mildly. they were mistaken. They
proclaimed the Jeffersonian doctrine
that the best government governs
least They find some OF their lead
ers leading today in the direction Of
state socialism. and centralized
government far beyond the aims or
dreams oi Alexander Hamilton.
The state of mind OF these men is
precisely that OF the puzzled writer
OF thirty years ago. Ii they are still
democrats they want to know why.
Old beliefs have been knocked into
i cooked hat Their accepted lead
ers have gone on new taCks. Old
landmarks have disappeared. a high
sea is running. and they are nervous
about where and whittier.
