at present baa grown not only to acoepi but
to demand as normal. This Is so obvious

doing damage to his neighbors, but we cannot
afford to discourage the development ol
such men merely because It Is poxslble they
may use tbelr power to wrong ends.
"If we did eo we should leave our history ?
blank, for we shonld have no great slate*

the average, the most useful man to hli
lellowclllxem Is apt to t>e he to whom
has be-^n given what tbe i'salmlst prayed

great captain of InduHlry, the man o

while a* a matter of praeil>*al experience,

"In my Judgement, tbla sovereign must be
tbe natlooal government. Wben It baa been
given full power, tben tbla full power can be
used to control any evil Influence, ezaetly aa
the government la now nalng tbe power conferred
