ave to appeal, but to his stummick.
Mile End is one big stummick, saving
her Ladyship's presence. All ques-
tons dahn our wye are stummick
questions. There ain t no other. Cor
love yer innercence! Me and my mates
ave listened many and many a time
to you armchair gents-good COM
rades ala givin' of it aht and tying
yerselves into knots about US working
men and the wye to do it.
"There s only one wye to appeal to
the hanimile known as the working
man, and that's through his stun
mick. When you've filed that, then
you can 60 step 'igher to his art,
and when you've torked to wot you
might call his bloomin' emotions, then
you can come the intellectual over i'm.
A man thinks through his stummick
when you come to think of it.
1t amt very elegant or elawssy
maybe, but there's no good trying to
fill an empty ed before you fill the
empty stummick underneath it. It's
a sort of boiler, you know. You stoke
the stummick and get the steam up
to help the brain turn rahnd."
Little Graney's talk was a good deal
of a shock to the young Irishman in
the story, who had always thought of
soul" in connection with democracy.
Before he is through, however, he
seems to think that even if you begin
with the "stummick" you will not get
far in solving labor's difficulties until
you reach the head. Destin says !:
"You revolutionists think that all the
The sun., 1919-06-01

words; in Parliament and in arbitra-
ton contests between employers and
men.
Creegan, the Irishman and direct
actionist in the story, says: "You We
voted backwards and forwards until
you are cross-eyed," to which the
Scotchman, McGraw, replies, for his
more moderate wing, that even if we
tax too little whuskey in our water,
that doesn't mean we are going over
to pure spirit-to the delirium of di-
rect action unwatered by political ac-
ton" The woman finds the truth
somewhere in between, in paradox, as
she says. "We are all right and all
wrong. The truth doesn't lie in the
Syndicalist any more than it lies in
the political camp-in anarchy any
more than in collectivism The truth
lies between. 1t always lies between.
The truth lies in paradox. But it re-
mains for the little Cockney Mile
Finder perhaps to get the nearest to
the truth when he says the whole labor
question is a "stummick question.
This recalls the story of another Irish
man, James Stephens, who in his
amusing book The DemiGods takes
the position that the chief duty of
man is to feed himself, and makes his
little company of vagabonds move
through his book from meal to meal,
so to speak. This is Graney's view
exactly, stated picturesquely:
"You come and live dahn Mile End

mans art nor likewise to his ed you

Adventures in Democracy
Its Everlasting Issues Are Debated From Many Angles
With an Irish Novelist Cool Headed in the Chair

proletariat has to do is to man the
barbados, defeat the armed forces Of
Society, take over the reins of govern
ment-that government which you
hate, because all government means
politics in some unexplained
way revolutionize Society, max
ing it happy and contented
whether it will or no. All this
without intermediate stage-without
that education which is the essential
of all progress" Which shows that
this man at least abandons the syndi-
calism with which he starts, since
Sorel, the Frenchman who was the
first to advocate the pure esprit" of
the General Strike (even if it is a
myth " as opposed to little Eva
ter with the whuskey," taught that
man has genius only in the measure
that he does not think.
When the man in The New Machid-
Ueli said he was always a good radical
until he met some radicals (most of
us preferring to be radicals all by
ourselves) he was doubtless thinking
of the women in radical circles, who
are almost bound to be queer. In this
story, for example, although most Of
the men are human beings, the wom-
en-, practically without exception, are
odd creatures who never sit on chairs,
but always on cushions: among others
there is the real live Duchess" who
mingles her altar of roses with the
sweat of the workers; the bachelor
girl who had "broken out" of her
middle class home and "broken into"
the labor movement; green eyed
girl; mysterious French woman
called "Satalia" and "the Mac
Clusky"-"a full feshed woman with
a Swami aspect, whose grizzled curls
covered solid looking head like that
of benevolent ram" Some of the
characters are only slightly disguised,
and those who enjoy the game of find
ing originals will have a good time in
Mr. Desmond's book. 1t will not be
difficult, for example, to recognize the
newspaper editor, who when a man
asks to write some articles for him on
the theory that the working people
want to know the facts about the
progress of the labor movement, re-
plies little YEARLY: edo theyf Do
you know what's troubling the fac
tory girlf Not the price of factory
labor or the eight hour day, but what
the Duke said to the Duchess in the
conservatory after dinner"
The remarkable thing about the
book is that any one, especially an
Irishman, could write it and present
the case of labor so alphabetically
and at the same time with reserva-
tons, as we say of the covenant. Mr..
Desmond, in fact, proves himself an
excellent chairman in his story, per-
hitting everybody, Socialists and syn
dicalists, masters and men, to have
their say, even if sometimes they all
talk at once 1t is the living voice of
struggling democracy itself that is
heard in the story, more potent than
programmes, louder than manifestoes,
and more interesting than either.
