They represent the wreCk of the enthusiasm of strong men who must find tlie outlet for their apoatolate. This paper began by being a t odds with all that was established, npd it had readers. But as time wont on the'man who made the paper drove off singly and in groups all those who had begun by being his supporters. It waft found-a little too radical for them, and. they ho longer kept step with its newest inarch. , “Of course I now can see that such a paper was foredoomed to failure,” the editor said after he had recited the ear­ l y history of his venture. “I confess lfc was pretty" strong even for British -radicals. After the. circulation had dwindled down to the extremists I sue deeded in alienating about half of them by denouncing social democracy aft feu .dal oppression, and the "other half left me when I attacked atheism bn the ftiora of its superstitious tendencies. After that l ra^ th e paper as long aS 1 could without any subscribers. But I had to give it up. Nobody would read it except myself, and toward the end I had to give up reading It myself.
