The organisation railing tliem
aelves nationalists are becoming
bo nuinerduil" and promim-ut a to
attract attention, and command in
terest. Oil December 19 in Doston !
they celebrated their first anniver
sary, and at that meeting, the Hoa
ton Post say the hall was well
filled with an audience of eminent
ly respectable character, in which
the preponderance of the female
sex was noticeable, and it indicated
by the liberal and enthusiastic
applause bestowed upon the speak
ers that it' lias ' '-teen drawn ' to
gether by-- convictions already
formed rather' than by curiosity.
The Rer Edward Kverett Hale
presided oyer thp meeting and de
fined nationalists as "the - friends
of government,' and Mr. Edward
Bellamy, whose well-known novel,
'Lookinx'-Backward," furnished
the immediate incentive for tne
present movement, - was the princi-1
Pal speaker,. Altogether the meet.
ing was not.lacking in indications!
that the nationalist movement has
made distinct progress in the firt
year of its existence. The address
of Mr. Bellamy furnished the most
' comprehensive and definite 'state
ment yet presented to the public
of the grounds of the movement
and the programme which it pre
sents. Its ultimate aim, frankly
avowed by 'Mr. Bellamy, without
the use of die term, is neither more !
' i
nor less than state socialism in its f
completestr'foria ; its immediate
aims are . the municipalization on
the supply of light and heat and of !
the local transportation service, j
and the nationalization of all rail-!
toads, telesrranhs. telephones, audi
coal mines, as well as of the ex-!
press service. The address, while j
radical in its proposals and sweep-1
ing in its assumption of premise?,'
' ' '
was upon the whole moderate in
tone, and if it receives the public
attention to which its merits as a
statement of a c.ise entitle it. will

, . . . ... 1
tncounterea th'otigh its connvc-;
tion with the fantastic conception j
of a different social order contained j
in "Looking Backward." A move-;
Dient as lofty in its aims as respec- '
table in the character and earnest
ness of fts adherents as that w hich
is now familiarly known by the
name of nationalism can fair.'y ask
and expect to receive the respect
ful consideration of the public ; but
it must also meet a cold and rigid
examination of its claims by the
economist and the social philoso
pher. While the present condi
tions if society are deplorable in
many respects. Sir. Bellamy's por
Ir.iyal of its evils is exaggerated
and one-sided. The strength of
nationalism lies in its presentation
of an ideal condition of society con
forming much more closely to that
equality and brotherhood of man
in which Christendom professes to
believe than anything that we now
enjoy; its ' weakness iies in the
difficulty of attaining such an ideal
with the immense obstacles u hirli
block the way, particularly under
cur democratic institutions, and
the danger of producing a condi
tion of thing'in which society will
find itself suffering from worse ills
than tho-:e which now alllict it.
Those who foment existing social
discontent and unrest may be con
servative saviors of society, as X.r.
Bellamy pictures them; but the
responsibilities which they lightly
assume are of the must serious
character.
