Democracy as now, when prince and
peasant. baron and fief, rider and rid
don throughout the beleaguered world
worship together and chant the pas
sionate ritual Liberty, Equality, and
Fraternity
This manifestation so extraordinary
had feeble counterpart in the decades
Of the American and French revo-
lutions. when it was fashionable to
sneak of the Rights of Man" and even
70 write about them. if not unduly to
exercise them.
Witness to-day how one may sing
the rebel "Marseillaise, even in high
church circles. And how those dusty
pilgrims to our national shrine OF de-
mocracy. Viviani, "the Socialist Anti
Christ" of France, in rapt accord with
BalfOuI, the dUiC uiti o-SOiANNA w.
tive of England, receive our fondest
blessings, together with new staff and
scrip for their journey home, thence to
spread the good gospel of our new-found
common humanity.
What is this precious chalice which
nv Lords Reading and Percy, and my
fellow-men. Brown and Rosebaum, press
TO their lips?
What is this Democracy for which
the members of the international Social
Register and of the International Prole-
tariat are willing to sleep in the same
dog tent?
Three years ago we were invited to
die in defence of some smaller ma
tons" Two years ago we were M
portuned to avenge with our lives the
ruthless warfare of the Teutons. One

Laughter would be excited by the sup

II have read his brochure on govern
ment by the superior few, or by the
supposition that the benefciaries of the
military knighthood-mill in Canada and
the members of the Iowa farmers

the vision of Democracy attends them.
There are Democracy and democracy,

However divergent may be the rich

and the stupid mans conception, how
ever tainted with hypocrisy, smudged
with self-interest or weakened by the
inadeouacy of the human mental ma
chinery for separating thought from

kernel of the Democracy ideal.
For even princes and unwleldy-rich
