It Is of these I forces that I shall speak and not of myself, who am merely their servant, j "What are these forces? Whence do they spring? What have they aecom ! pllshed. and what is their programme and purpose for the future? It is plain . what they arc. They are the forces J of humane, righteous, and patriotic ' purpose which have sprung up In our I day in the "ilnds of those who per ' ceive the t-licrtcomlngs of the law as it has hardened in America and who look forward with purpose and convic tion to a new age lu which govern ment shnll be Indeed the servant of lib erty and not of privilege. "These are men who perceive that American law has not kept pace with American sentiment: that our law has been holding us rigid and Immovable, until class has begun, in free America, to be arrayed against class; until what was legal bas begun to play a more Important part In our thoughts and de terminations than what Is human and right; ami until America has begun to lag Instead of lead In reconciling what la with what ought to tie. Dawn of a New Age. "A new age had dawned upon us while those who were attempting to lead us were stumbling along with their heads over their shoulders, intent upm 'reserving the conditio!' of a day that Is gone. America has changed and the whole world has changed. Our toiiimeroe ami Industry had grown to such a bulk that the domestic markets of which our former leaders were al way "') solicitous were glutted and we .e bound, unless we were to burst our jin ket, to find a free outlet Into the markets of the world. The time had come when our commerce I needed freedom and would be throt j tied t.y further restraints. I "We bad acquired foreign posses 1 slons. hud been drawn into the politics of the world, had begun to play a part j which could not be played by provln j rials but must be played by citizens of ! the great world of nntlons. And yet we bad not altered our policy or our point ' of view. The great European war bas served at least to show us this oue thing, that the world itself had chang ed; that It had become at once too big world and too little a world to sub nit its destinies to the hostile rivalries ' and ambitions now of this and again of that member of the great family of men; too compact, too intimate In its contacts, too universal In Its ways of Intercourse, to make It any longer pos slhle to limit the effects of any nation's action to a single separate sphere where the rest would be untouched. I "An inevitable partnership of Inter ' ests has been thrust upon the nations. They are neighbors and must accom ' modate their Interests to one another. or else disturb the lives and embar rass the fortunes of men everywhere, No wonder that In such an age men In America should be cried awake and feel once more, as they felt them In the days when their great republic was set up, the compulsions of humanity and o Justice!
