APRIL 6 ... 1917 A WORLD OF REPUBLICS. An exchange commenting on plana of government, 8bvb: The little seed of democracy planted bv the Swiss and Dutch republics, by the Puritans of England in the 17th century and by the Americans and the French, has grown into a mighty tree whose leaves are for the healing of the nations. The Russian revolution, tre mendous as it is and resembling a tid al wave, yet it is but the decuman wave of a rising tide which has been rolling all around the world for almost a century and a half. Its main significance to civilization is that of a political symptom. It means that rulers everywhere recog nize that sovereignty resides in the people and that the people are yet to rule everywhere in darkest Africa eventually as truly as in enlightened America, in hoary Japan no leas than youthful Australasia. The movement can no more be held back than the planets can be turned from their orbits for both are cosmic processes. The march of democracy the last half century has been almost unbroken. America vindicated government by the people instead of by a class in 1H n r2 Italy In 1783 set up a government in which the royal ministry is respon sible to the national legislature and the people. In France the rule of the people has been supreme since 1875 and the republic has triumphed over every foe. Spain has virtually been a republic since 187B. Turkey received a parliament the IMBI year and regain ed it in 11)08. Brazil became a repub lic in I8S9, and Cuba and Panama fol lowed its course not very many years later. Portugal adopted republicanism in 11)10. Persia had in 100)1 made a good start at parliamentary rule, and the ministers of the shah still remain responsible to the representatives of the people. China in 1918 changed from an empire to a republic, and the people have proved their mastery of their government by compelling it to break with Germany. The English dominions over sea, such as Australia, Canada, Newfound land, New Zealand and South Africa, excepting the crown colonies and In dia, are as democratic and free as America. Even in Japan the emperor aud premier seldom thwart the people's legislature. Outside of Germany and Austria Hungary absolute monarchy has been destroyed. The sovereigns of Belgium, England, Greece, Holland, Italy, Ru mania, Spain and Sweden are figure heads on the ship of state. Ancient Athens struck the keynote for th march of democracy but modern America led the way for the 10th and SiOth centuries. The world grows re publican. "The United States of the World" is not an impossible ideal. One of the hardships and handicaps connected with the vblunteer system of obtaining soldiers and sailors for army and navy is that the volunteer is called upon for a great and unjust sacrifice. Too often he finds his old position filleif by another when he re turns from serving his country, if he ever does return, and he and his suffer distress. There is but one thing for employers to do in such circumstances if they would show themselves truly patriotic. It is to hold the volunteer's position open for him during his ser vice, and, aa far as possible, to assist him also in other ways. No other course would do so much, while re cruiting by means of volunteer enlist ment remains the American system, to fill the ranks of the navy and the army. Men will enlist by the thou sands instead of by the hundred, and will do so with rejoicing once they know that they are not to be penalized industrially after their military or naval service has ceased.
