Mary LaBrache Baddeley, and it ap-
pearing to the Court that the executrix

A WORLD OF REPUBLICS.

An exchange commenting on plans
of government, says:
The little seed Of democracy planted
by the Swiss and Dutch republics, by
the Puritans of England in the 18th
century and by the Americans and the
French, has grown into mighty tree
whose leaves are for the healing of the
nations. The Russian revolution, tre-
mendous as it is and resembling a It'd
al wave, yet it is but the decuman
wave of a rising tide which has been
rolling all around the world for almost
century and half.
Its main significance to civilization
is that of a political symptom. 1t
means that rulers everywhere recog-
nize that sovereignty resides in the
people and that the people are yet to
rule everywhere-in darkest Africa
eventually as truly as in enlightened
America, in hoary Japan no less than
youthful Australasia. The movement
can no more be held back than the
planets can be turned from their orbits
for both are cosmic processes.
The march of democracy the last
half century has been almost unbroken.
America vindicated government by
the people instead of by class in 1868.
Italy in 1852 set up a government in
which the royal ministry is respon-
sible to the national legislature and
the people. In France the rule of the
people has been supreme since 1876
and the republic has triumphed over
every foe, Spain has virtually been
republic since 1875. Turkey received
a parliament the same year and regain
ed 1t in 1908. Brazil became repub-
lie in 1889, and Cuba and Panama fol-
lowed its course not very many years
later. Portugal adopted republicanism
in 1910, Persia had in 1905 made a
good start at parliamentary rule, and
the ministers of the shah still remain

One Of the hardships and handicaps
connected with the volunteer system of
obtaining soldiers and sailors for
army and navy is that the volunteer
is called upon for great and unjust
sacrifice. Too often he finds his old
position filled by another when he re-
turns from serving his country, if he
ever does return, and he and his suffer
distress. There is but one thing for
employers to do in such circumstances
if they would show themselves truly
patriotic. 1t is to hold the volunteers
position open for him during his SER
vice, and, as far as possible, to assist
him also in other ways. No other
course would do so much, while re-
cruiting by means of volunteer enlist
ment remains the American system,
to fill the ranks of the navy and the
army. Men will enlist by the thou
sands instead of by the hundred, and
will do so with rejoicing once they
know that they are not to be penalized
industrially after their military or
naval service has ceased.
