The difference between Democracy and
any other kind of Government is that
Democracy's unit is the Neighborhood while
in all other forms Of Government it is
Class, of some kind
In the monarchies of former times the
king and the mobiles managed the state; the
people had nothing TO do with it except
pay taxes, fight in the wars. and look
pleasant.
In the Bolshevik scheme little group Of
theorists takes the place vacated by the for
mer bosses the people still have nothing
to do but TO submit.
Both of these schemes rest upon the as
sumption that the people, taking them as
they run, are too ignorant TO attend TO
their own affairs.
Singularly, the people have often been sat
isfied with this. Self-government is diff
cult. II involves responsibilities which are
troublesome. Also thought, which is worse.
They willingly avoided the burden, side
stepped, and were only too glad to let
George do it. And George looked out for
George.
Democracy's unit is not the educated
class. the politician class, the aboring class,
the propertied class, the moral class, or any
other class. 1t is the neighborhood, in
Guiding men and women, old and young.

OF course we have not actually realized
this yet. We are still afraid of it. But we
are coming TO it, And only when we get
there will we have true and real Democracy
II may be bad, but it will be no worse
than we are. II may be good but no better
than we are.

HUNGER WAGES CAUSE
MIGRATION FOR SOUTH

disastrous storm in 1916 and the
boil weevil, which necessitated
means of cultivation that required
less labor power. Improved living
conditions in the north, described
by those who had already left the
state, proved a great factor in in
ducing others to go. The increased
death rate from pellagra in 1915
and pellagra mortality figures in
general apparently have a direct
relation to wage rates. Pellagra is
due to monotonous low proteid
diet, which can be corrected by us
ing meats, vegetables and cereals in
great abundance.
Economic motives were present
in practically every case of negro
migration, according to Mr.. Leavell,
but the feeling on the part OF the
negro that he is disseminated
against in business. in the schools,
and in the courts has been also a
great factor.

Washington, May 1.-The adop-

American industry against extreme
revolutionary industrial propagan-
da is the keynote of report just
issued by Ex-Governor Robert p.
Bass of New Hampshire, covering
the period of his service as director
of the marine and dock industrial
relations division of the United
States shipping board. He says:
1.-The government should system
atically inform both employers and
employees in regard to many mat
ters of the utmost interest and i'm
portance to each.
Satisfactory assurances should
be given that labor will have a sub
stantial voice in determining the dis
tribution between capital and labor
of the profits of production.
Labor should be promised its
reasonable share of any increase in
production.
