PRINCE EDWARD. THE DEMOCRAT.

The visit of Edward, Prince of Wales Oldest son O.
King George of Great Britain and heir presumptive to thu
throne, giving another opportunity to discover how
truly democratic modern royalty nj most of Europe has
become. We found King Albert of Belgium to be us
he sort OF man we had conceived him to be- only more
He was even more genial, unassumng and democratic
than we had expected He looked and acted like ANYTHING
but the naughty auocratr with his heel on the necks Of
the people, which is the mental picture usually evoked in
tins country at the mention Of king He heped the
people of the United States to understand that
might have permanent, hereditary head and vet he a
democracy. Prince Edward is helping to confirm this
understanding He is not affecting royal state but is
visiting the country observer and one who desires
genuinely to become acquainted with the American pao
pe to sec US as are to understand us and thus Law
foundation for greater frendness and unity of thought
end action between his country and ours His freedom
OF action is necessarily somewhat restricted by the fact
that ne is in measure the nations guest but that does
not require nor does he desire the and genu
Elections formerly supposed to be necessary in entertain
ing royalty.
IL Will do the people of the United States much good
to realize that the royalty of the countries with which we
were associated in the is not Of the kind so much
sneered at by those who opposed entry into the war
ana SAID we were not fighting for democracy but to keen
kings on their thrones. Democracy is not mere form
OF government 1t is spirit anmating whole people
mere is vastly more democracy in the world than forms
OF government indicate There is more democracy ap
proximat'ng the American type than we have been ae
eostomed to suppose We are learning that sucb damoc
racy practically rules in the nation to which we are the
closest allied by ties of blood and language The visit Of
rnce Edward is helping us to understand this If we
gather from his visit and that of King Albert and other
men OF note who shall come to us later that the tu
spirit OF democracy is widespread and strong and that
shOud stand together sodly against the false democ
aey which seeking to overturn the world we shall be
use unto salvation The medium for this is offered US
