THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
Like Assimilates Like. Violence ami murder are doubleedged. The ineendarist perishes in the conflagration he -lias caused. The French Revolution had its procession of leaders who, clothed in a little brief authority, played their short-lived part and were discarded. Marat was assassinated; Ronton went to the scaffold: Robespierre, “the seagreen incorruptible, ’ died on the guillotine to which he had consigned so many a victim, fn Russia Kerensky was soon east aside. Lenin would assuredly have fallen hud he not died; indeed, lor some time liefore Jiia death he was plainly losing grip. And Trotsky, in gaol, with his memories of the blood that lie lias shed, must wonder what fate has m store for him now.
