On the Issue of Americanism There Can Be No Compromise Democracy and the Isms BY DK. FRANK CRANE (Copyright, 1919, by Wrank Crane) Get this first. The world is going to progress, quand meme. Democracy is nothing more nor less than an arrangement whereby the world can progress. It means removing obstructions, cleaning the channel, so that the river can flow, and not overflow. Isms are artificial schemes wherein men play God, claim to see the desired end, and to dictate how we shall progress toward it. Europe, freed of autocrats, is seething with Isms—Socialism, Bolshevism, Commun- ism, Syndicalism, Marxism, Thisism and Each professes to know exactly where we're going and how to get there. Democracy, however, says, in the lan- guage of Mr. Dooley, ‘We don’t know where we're going, but we're on our way.” Democracy is Opportunism, guided by sigpetarey ¢ Isms are Doctrinaire, guided y egotism. The Isms operate in pride of intellect; Democracy in the humility of justice. Democracy is a moral thing, an appre- hension of the cosmic law of righteousness, and a conviction that they wiljl invariably work out best, altho how they will work we do not know. i Under Democracy all we have to do is to apply the principles of justice to the case hand. Democracy is working on the millennium “by the day”; the Isms “by the job”—by contract. Democracy is founded on a belief in the goodness of the natural laws of social evo- lution. It believes this universe is govern by “a power not of ourselves,” bringing toward the goal of the Golden Age. Isms distrust Nature. They insist on lating progress. Democracy assumes God. The Isms scheme of things as inherently wrong, ne ing Them to set it right. “ Democracy is a thing of Faith. And “t] just shall live by*faith.” Not upon Fait but upon Cleverness is the reliance of # Isms. Democracy takes a step at.a time. Isms demand to know the destination. Hi Democracy is in tune with life; for individual has to live a day at a time, The Isms want to wreck the place, they cannot have their own way. O Democracy’s front door is the sign: “D interruption of business during impro ments.” ; Democracy is as Revolutionary as Ism. It also means Change. But change from one fixed System to But Continual and Everlasting Change. Growth, in other words. Democracy was made by free and men, a race of conquerors. The Isms co mostly from men who have been of oppressed class and seek to become # upper. Democracy is not anxious to verse classes, because it recognizes no ¢ higher than itself. tro Democracy is the program of free m : The Isms are the dreams of slaves.
