If the Morning Post sometimes believes too little in democracy

—democracy, we mean, in its strict and true form—for our taste, we gladly acknowledge that in its fearlessness and in- dustriousness it has many lessons to teach even to the truest democrats. As for literature and all the arts, they have few more discriminating and ardent champions than the Morning Post. Altogether it is a great newspaper, greatly conducted. As an instance of the exceptional pains it takes to instruct its readers, we may mention the Supplement on the record of the Sinn Feiners in Ireland which was published on Monday. It ii an invaluable collection of facto, for which we are extremely grateful to the Morning Post. We suppose that hundreds of persons, like ourselves, have preserved it for reference.
