TOO MUCH DEMOCRACY.

The Russian revolution having finally shown sign3 of becoming actually popular, England and our bes. people are fecoming really alarmed. Perhaps i' was mistake to h2il "the free Russian People it may be that tEe Council of Work.ngmcr,s and Soldiers Dolo- gates (who only represent he vast majority of the people, is going to have so,aHtning to say.
 This hc3 led the British Govern mcnt, we understand, to Jffer the cX-Czcr hor,e in EnglaGd, and an income-like the ex-King Manuel's -ccllected from the British tax payer. Nicholas RomanOv, then, will be held by England as a sort of club over the head of the Rus cian democracy, to prevent tt from beaoming too democratic.

THE MEANING OF RUSSIA.

The crisis Tn Russia that i3 giv- ing the master class of tho world such concern at present, is caused by the inevitable conflict between the two factors of rising capitalism on the one hand, and the old com- munism on tho other. The estab- lishment of a national existence for Russia by Peter the Great cane in to conflict with the old community life of the people, but finally seem ed to have rooted out the latter and set up a strong national govern mcnt.
 When tho revolution of last spring had overthrown the Czar there were two forces that contri- buted to that result. One was the old communistic ideas of tho pea sants, the other was the new capi- tilistic ideas of the rising commer- cial classes. These are the two factors that overthrow the monar- Cny. AS soon as lndl cNcHt Wdo dC- oomplished there at once developed a conflict between the two groups as to which should be the domin- ant factor in the new regime.
 The commercial interests wanted to continue the war, and mako cer- tain of the overthrow of Germany so that they could develop their own industrial life. The peasants wanted to establish peace for the workers of all nations so that they mig hts live their community life in their own way. It was inevitable that as soon as the CZar was out of the way, and they could get at each others throats, that they should find themselves in opposing camps. The commercial interests are ag- grcssivc and trying to take the po sition that was held in the monar

WARS EFFECT ON READING.

A grim witticism of the early days of the war was that i. is a great instructor in geography. Now we learn from competent author itics that the war hcs greatly inn proved the taste Of the reading public, and the New York Times quotes MT. E. Denke, of the New York Public Library, as saying:
 Ut is the future that seems to be bothered a great many of the peo- pie who come here from day to day and spend hours with their heads buried in books. Conse- quently they are not satisfied with history alone. They go to the eco nCmist and the philosopher for in- formation and cnlightmcnt. They feel that facts alone, as recorded by the historian, do not explain the problems which confront us4 They are grasping out not only flor the abstract facts of life, in a deter mi::atior to see things for themsel- yes, and see them straigt.
 Reading of German authors in general has had big decline. The classics, such as Gooth2j Schiller, and Lcssing, are still in demand, but modern German writers make little or no appeal to ,thc average reader"

AND NOW THE CLERKS.

Its fine for us!" a correspond ent writes on the letterhead of a large corporation. We read in the newspapers every day or two that switchmen or miners or men in shipyards have demanded twenty or thirty per cent more pay to cover the increased cost of living, and the President is sending some big wigs out to fix it up. Usually the men get what they demand. Maybe you know that when the price of bread and milk goes up for a steam filter it goes up just as much for an office man; but nobody else seems to know it. The seventy dollars now, which is about seven per cent increase. Nobody has any time to bother with us, except to tell us to economize and buy Liber- ty bends"
 About the lonesomest and least considered person in the country to day is tho clcrk-using that term in the loose sense which includes office men and salcspeople.
 No one is afraid he is going to strike and tic up an industry everybody knowing very well he cannot. His money is worth about a third less than it was before the war, and in the general run of cases he-or she-has not third more money.
 Among those whom the census classes as salaried employees there are a great many who have emerg- ed from the general run and achiev cd such a relationship to the bus mess that they are counted as indl- viGuals, instead of merely as un- distinguished items in the clerical and selling forces. They can keep up with tho cost of living and beat it, because the people up in front, who fix salaries, are personally in tercstcd in these individuals. But as for the general run-over mil lion in manufacturing and trans portation alone-ther needs are considered !aa:.
 Organized wage-earners gan com nand consideration. Some unorga- nized workers at the margin, who are always slipping off into indig- ence, get constant attention from the charitable. The clerk who can manage to support his family is mostly let alone.-Saturday Even ing Post

It is these two factors that now seem to hold the stage in Russia, regard less of the statements regarding German intrigue.

 And our own mentor, the New York Times! With what bitterness it now spoak5 of that free people it erstwhilc greeted 50 rapturously! Listen to it's present opinion of the Council Of Workingm yn's and Sold ieTs' Delegates:
 ''Thcse men calling themselves representatives of the workingmen and of the soldiers are extreme ra- d:cals ard sy2dicalists, correspond ing to the l. w. W. agitators in this coun>ry."
 In other words, at last tno Times has discovered that the revolution is being conducted by revolution ists.
 My friends, tho deeper we get into this war for democracy and civilization appcar on any side. De- mocracy would crd this war and all wars. Democracy would do away wita legalized selling of the instru- mcnts of murder. Democracy at ieaet would take the profit out of butchcry. Democracy at least would forbid the starving of tho great masses of the people to en- rich tho few.
 Therefore not oEly Gcrms ny. bu. the Unitrd States. England, F-acce ard Italy all fear Democracy, and all crush it wherever it is found. Even i- Gorr1acy it would :.ot be permitted long.
