posto je ogranicena ma cisto poll

usled primene joj ma jedinu stvar,
koja je ME dostojna - ma eko-

wanted to forget IL.
Blaine was beaten at the
polls partly by OBJECTIONS in
his own party, and partly by
the violent speech of the Rev
nSend Burchard which Blaine
read and passed upon,
and i'm which the Democratic
Party was denounced as the
party of Rum, Romanism
and Rebellion"
Blaine might be termed, il
you please, a great politician
but not a great political
leader" either i'm the nation or
within his own party.
He led brilliantly perhaps
but often far from conyinc-
ingly, and where he led the
people did not choose to fol-
low.
DLAINE'S best period was
- probably when he was
speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives.
But he was not as great IA
speaker of the House as the
sO-caIled GEAR" of Congress,
Thomas Bracket Reed.
Reed built the speakership
Of the House TO such influence
and Importance that il became
a rival in power TO the presi-
dency.
And the House itself al
tanned a dignity and conse-
quence that 1t has never since
enjoyed, and that IL has lost
entirely in its present degen-
crate years.
This ach ievem ent Of
Speaker Reeds was a patri-
Otto one-and, In fact. dem
)ratic one because IL placed
Vhe greater power of govern
ment In the hands of the di-
rect representatives of the
people i'm Congress, and so
brought that power more
nearly in the reach of the peo-
pie themselves.
This was in accord with the
ideas of the founding fathers
of the republic who intended
that the people should rule
and that the representatives
Of the people in Congress
should have the greatest
power and influence of the
three departments of the gov
eminent.
That conception is a prin-
ciple of essential democracy.
TODAY the House is in the
Il hands Of speakers of
whom the public hardly knows
the names, and the Congress
has sunk TO so low a level
that il has surrendered most
OF its powers and cOnstitu-
tional functions TO the Presi-
dent, making the Chief Ex.
ecutive an autOcrat and the
government-to all intents
and purpOses-a dictatorship
That is not democracy.
1t is, 10 say the least, au-
tocracy and to say the worst,
the beginning of despotism.
IL Is exactly what the
SOunding fathers most graveIy
ared for the future welfare
And even the continued exist
ence of the republic

Reeds purpose was to Sc
cure prompt action In the
public business and to exer-
else vigorously in the public
interest all the great powers
which the founders of the re-
public had repOsed in the peO-
pies representatives.
Fed was a Republican In
N name but a Democrat at
heart, and he finally broke
with the Mckinley admins
tration by reason of his oppo-
sition to the Republican poll
cies of Imperialism.
As a professed Republican
Reed was surely a more pO-
tent factor in the life of the
nation than Blaine, and a
greater and more truly ma
tiOnal political leader.
