The Democratic Drama (New York Times) Any election is enough to set one to thinking, maybe a bit wistfully, about democracy. The struggle for freedom is like a youthful courtship, full of fire and poetry. Young Lochinvar comes out of the West, swings Universal Suffrage neatly into the saddle, leans over to tighten the Bill of Rights, and with the Australian Ballot in his teeth gallops across the moors and into the Esk River. Bugles blare and the drums |beat, and bullets sing about the ears of ragged men The British infantry are moving doggedly up the slopes of Breed’s Hill; Lincoln rises to speak at Gettysburg— |an unimportant speech, he thinks, but a President must say at least a few perfunctory words; the Suffra- gists are annoying President Wilson by picketing the White House. But the victory is won at last, and then me romance is like a suburban household—pleasant, peaceful, a little humdrum, with bills to pay, Johnny’s |teeth to be straightened and the problem of getting father down to the 7:58 every working morning. | Democratic elections often lack the outward {drama, and we try to make up for the lack by exag- |gerating personalities and stressing heavily the clash |of ideas. But since political parades have largely |gone out, democracy has nothing to compare with the Tomorrow will see the start of taking the Un"gooae-.flwp))ing the saluting, the thump and blare, employment Census which must be finished before the spinal appeal of autocratic Governments.
