The “Will or the People."
THE "\VILL OF THE PEOPLE."
John Stuart Mill found. practically

ous or the MOST ACTIVE PART
of the people; the majority. or those
who succeed in making themselves
accepted as the majority: the people *
. consequently may desire to oppress
a pill“. of their number; and pro-
cautions. he thought. are as much
needed against this. as against any
other abuse 0! power.
The “people who exercise the
power. are not always the same
people with thosu over whom it is
exercised, and the "self-government
spoken of. is not the government of
each by himself but-of each by all
the rest. '
"Like other tyrannies." said Mill.
one of the grim English thinkers.
"the tyranny of t e majority was at
first, and is still \‘ulguriy held in
dread. chiefly as acting through the
acts or public authorities. But re-
llcciing persons perceived that when
society is itself the tyrant—society
collectively. over the separate indi-
viduals who compose it—-its means
of tyrannizing are not restricted to
the acts which it may do by the
hands or: political functionaries.
"Society can and does execute its
own mandates; and it it issues
wrong mandates instead of right. or
any mandates at all in things with
which it ought not 0 iiicddlc. it
practices a social tyranny more for~
inirlable than many kinds of polit-
ical oppression, since. though not
usually upheld by such extreme pen-
alties. it leaves fewer means of cs—
cupe, penetrating much more deeply
into the details of life. and cnslaving
the soul itself.

“Protoclion. therefore. against the
tyranny of the magistrate is not on-

against the tyranny of prevailing
opinion and feeling; against the ten-
dency of society to impose. by other
means than ciili penalties, its own
ideas and practices as mics of con-
duct on those who dissent from
them; to fetter the development. and

BUTIS.
It is‘concoivable th'at there still
is such a thing as arbutus in this
state, but it isn't to be found grOW-
ing by the wayside. It isn‘t to be
“found in those places once reputed
to be its haunts. for the many have
found it. and run it out. It isn't to
be found within reasonable distance
of any of our larger cities. for the
commercial gold seekers have taken
it all away to besold at so much a
bunch. Yet probably the pilgrim
equipped with some knowledge or
f the habits of the flower and walking
ability tor a day's journey in those
regions where good roads are un-
known could find some. It is a na-
tive of Connecticut. as it is to most
of New England. But great changes
have come since the Pilgrims. after
their sad winter at Plymouth. hailed
with joy as the earnest of returning
life after the winter's chili. and
named it the Mayflower.
It is a’rarcly choice flower . It
has always had a charm to: the dis-
cerning. The undisccrnlng 15“":
made it a. fad. and madly torn it up
root and branch whenever they
could find it. The state has vainly.
and probably too late. Sought to
prevent its entire extermination by
the passage of restrictive laws. If
any have knowledge of where to
find any. they would do well to lock
their knowledge up carefully. and
mlslay the key. For arbutus. we
may as well admit, is pretty largely
a. memory. It can be cultivated. and
is cultiinicd. but somehow that
seems lnupproprmte. As anything
but the shy. retiring wild flower that
some nature lovers associate with
their youth. it has comparatively
little churn). Its fragrance is the
romance of other days. Seemingly
we cannot bring that romance back
any more than we can bring the
flower back to its old time abund-
ance. or restore to frcsh wild thrill
to its discovery.
