democracy. W udI price lHy pres
ence! What men slaughtered in thy
behalf! And then. Democracy, art
thou here 10 stay? Thy name has
| been shouted over the four points
of the compass. While our country
was still in its infancy, "DemOcra-
cy' was echoed from the halls of
Virginia to the very plains of Bos-
| ton. Smeared with the determined,
| gushing blood of its defenders. each
letter. incarnate. could enact drama,
! tragedy with raw. cold. yet flaw
| less reality. Three centuries of
strife. by no means in vain, have
brought us up to our present dem
Ocratic status. Are we going ahead!
Or are we upon the pinnacle, and
turning toward a decline? Is the
blood stained cup of democracy that
we have so cherished to be invert-
ed, or is it being raised still higher?
These questions are on everyOne's
lips. We, however, can each do our
share in the maintenance of demo-
cracy, if so is our ideal. by stand
ing firmly upon the solid ground. Be
not swayed by every breeze, nor.
above all, censor the other fellow
by your criticism until his disabil-
ity has been absolutely ascertained.
