ards encountered at all seasons In

THE CHILDREN OF ISHMAEL.

There always has been, and prob
ably always will be, In both politics
and religion. a set OF people who de-
light IN being at swords points with
the majority. The world would not
have progressed very much II there
had not been In every age few
people who had the courage to defy
the conventions OF their time and
launch out on something new and
revolutionary. These are the real re-
formers. although many OF them had
TO give up their lives for their temer-
ity. and many more never saw the
reward OF their efforts left for COM
ing generations to realize. This old
II everybody made up his mind that
whatever was good enough for dad
Is good enough for me Inaction is
retrogression, for nothing in nature
stands still-we have got to advance
II we do not want to slip back. So
we are very much indebted to those
courageous souls who made them
selves the targets for the arrows OF
outrageous fortune" and suffered
contempt, ostracism and even perse-
cution that we OF later day might
find better way than our fathers
OF old. 1t will be sad day for hu-
manity should this breed OF humans
ever perish from the earth.
But these are not the topic OF our
discourse. for we have only good
words to say for those who turned
tho world upside down" in order to
break UP old errors and turn the
light OF truth upon tho pathway Of
progress. The kind we had In mind
are those people who wcro horn with
a pcnchant for differing from their
fellows, not as matter OF principle,
but Just because IT is their nature,
They have some kind OF hobby. and
arc not concerned about tho best and
most practical way TO accomplish
what thcy preach, but just 20 on
~ much as possible. These people
are Ike the professional revolution
lists in Mexico they talk for pence.
but dread It's coming because Il let's
them on, OF II JOB. No those lshmael-
itos do not often really want the
orecds they preach 10 come into
practice, for then they would have to
hunt up some new hobby or 20 out
OF business, Their delight is not In
doing good, but I'm harping on the
general badness of things, Intellect
uHlly they are whatever
exists they are opposed to and what
ever cannot he brought to pass is the
thing to be most desired, In other
words, they are destructive, but never
constructive,
In political orioles such people
form the backbone and energy OF the
various third party movements. those
ephemeral organizations that have
Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1916-11-20

sprung up time and time again, TO
run a short race and become merged
into some other party or simply die
because their existence has been for
gotten or some new hobby has sprung
up in their place. Some such men
have achieved prominence by pre-
ferring to lead n fororn hope rather
than assist in carrying out some prac-
teal policy. As one fad grows stale
they pick up another. and thus man
age TO keep that much longer in the
limelight. These men are not re-
protestations, but are simply politi-
cal freaks-curiostic In religion
they keep the sectarian fences In re-
! air and from time to time create
new divisions where none existed be-
fore. They do not work for any re-
ward except the qualification of their
combative instincts, and would think
they were not serving the Lord ac-
ceptably If they could not stir up a
iuss every so often. They cannot
sleep with an easy conscience If ev-
erything is peace and harmony. But
all these dsturbers have a useful Of
flee in the general economy of
things. without them we might be
In danger of growing too complacent
and taking the course of least resist
ance, thus forgetting that life in all
it's aspects is fight against some
thing all the way from the cradle to
the grave.
