The great war slaughter, the deadly banditvy, the traffic fatalities jad even the work of poisonous arink seem to indicate that life is cheap. But, does the great mass of people so consider it? Isn't it still so, that, outside of the pro- Tessional butchers of meat, the folks do have a horror of killing anything? The ordinary man always has a regret » #in beheading a chicken or stabbing a hog, or cutting the | }throat of a sheep, when it is necessary. The mob spirit to kill is no more prevalent than formerly. Unnatural is may be more numerous, but there are more people, more ways of being killed and more means of publicity ‘of the deaths. In spite of the propaganda of evolutionists and the humerous killings of people, the proportion of folks who ye that man is more than only a few planes removed the brute, and who cannot take a life, human or brute, without some regret, is probably as large as ever.

It is a maxim of our institutions that the government does not make the peo- ple, but the people make the government.” ' Still later, Senator Borah made a speech in which he f “The revelations (of the investigations) have uncoy- ed rottenness, but they have also uncovered the high purpose and the incorruptible patriotism of 110,000,000 people. I know, as we all know, that in the last analysis, e rely for the success of the government and our institu- tion ee the character of the people, and that is un- iin These statements, from two men who sit in the seats of le mighty, do not dove-tail at all. One is expressive of oubt, while the other voices confidence in the attitude the people. One believes that popular government must depend for its character entirely upon the character of the people who make it—that one can be no better than ithe other. The opposing view is that, no matter if there {be rottenness and corruption in government, the people ‘who established it are still pure of heart and mind, and there is no loss of faith in that government. _ Which is right? Neither and both. Governmental ‘orms are sound and the people, normally, are all right. e ills—the impurities of government—arise from blind otion to partisanism. It is party politics that now ears the whole works. Only when we attain full in- dependence of thought and vote it, will there be govern- “anent commensurately clean and worthy of a steady, true on faith the people do not, apparently, possess as they should.
