literature, music, art and science that contributed to the progressive education of the people, that in- spired action and afforded the social impulse for an extension of popular control over social things, op1y a short while ago, today are massed upon the side of reaction, but bereft of all their power save as reaction ary encumbrances of a movement will ultimately sweep over them.
 It is almost impossible to reject the theory that any age is fit to dictate to a future age the ultimate lengths to which progress may go, and men have wasted enormous abil- ity in establishing ground laws, constitution, codes, statutes to erect limits would circumscribe the area of social progress. Around these limits they erected monuments of past efforts, past forces, intcllec- tual and artistic, and besought hu- manity to forget its vain imagin- ings of the beyond where lay a greater freedom, and to stop and ad- mire what had been great in the past and which was to be great in the future as in tho present.
 Accordingly we have clung to the same musical modes, the sane reli- gious ideas, the same social systems the same legal formulas, the same literary fashion, the same concepts of art. and these who failed to do so were the social outcasts, hateful to the God of Capital and nis enc. mics as well.

them.
 It is very great mistake to ima- zine that we are in any way the ori- ginators of our own opinions our selves On the contrary, we are hide bound creatures of environ ment, of convention, custom. And the men who have, are they who absolutely dictate that environment, that convention and these customs that rule us so absolutely.
 Change, the only inevitable law of human life and as positive as exist ence itself, is the great enemy of the present both in the abstract and in the concrete supremacy of pre- sent time things, institutions, per sons, systems. And present time things, persons, institutions and systems that control society inevit- ably direct all the pressure they can force to the front to resist any tendency may develop to effect a change and facilitate it's inevitable flow. Accordingly all books, ar ticles, pictures, music, song that are revolutionary are taboo. They are denounced as wholly evil, and placed by the foolish Partingtons who would stop the tide with a broom, on their little musty fusty old index expurga- torius so that the truth may be sup pressed and the Tree of Knowledge also become the Forbidden Fruit not a tree of good and evil, but tree all evil itself.
 Now James acquired considerable money by his earlier popular writ ings and acquired following which he educated up to his own standard of what was literature and what | was style. It may be super-excell- ent, but it will not set the world afire with thoughts that burn, and he was favored by the critics always with excessive adulation that indu- ced many and many a person to ven- ture on buying and reading who would never otherwise buy and read a single of his books.
 But James was cult like 1bsen or Shaw or Browning or some of the other high-browed ones that have always their little coterie of de- voted imitators and disciples. What ever can be said about him, certain ly and obviously this can be said with safety that he functioned as novelist long after the novel, even with such brilliant opponents as Meredith, Hardy and others, had ceased to function with any import ance in the social movement.
 We have really some difficulty in aways remembering that tho live things of yesterday are not of to. day; that the forces which impelled .rogress a century ago are the very forces which withstand and resist progress today; that the radfcalism of yesterday is the conservatism of today, and the ideas that were dy- mamie and full of vitality but 6 short while ago are today lifeless, arid and inert today.
