First, there is the growing intelligence of the masses. These men of the hammer and the saw and the spade have learned to think. We live in an age when the sun of general infor mation has risen so high that its beams no longer cling about the mountain-peaks of rank and nobility, but find their way down into the lowly valleys of plain, homely toil as well. Our public schools, our ubiquitous newspapers, and our best literature of all sorts have been edu cating the people, until to-day many a man at the bench or the anvil is able to think broadly and profoundly upon all great questions of so cial and industrial and religious life.
