Excerpt from Righting the People's Wrongs: A Lesson From History for Our Own Times History has afl'orded many sad illustrations Of republican shells masking imperial despotism or intolerable tyrannies, under autocratic or oligarchi cal rule; but in England we find the form and paraphernalia of monarchy clothing a government which, since the dawn of the Victorian age, has suc cessively enlarged the rights and privileges of the people, and which has from year to year, in its internal policy and in that of its Anglo - Saxon dependencies, accepted the larger demand of a free government whose face is set toward the republican ideal.
