A large crowd immediately assembled and lent its interest to the solution of this question. It was in vain that the Chinaman protested innocence of any aggressive act or thought. The crowd's sympathies were with Bootsey, and when he insisted that the Mongol had tangled him up in his pig-tail, the aroused populace with great difficulty restrained its desire to demolish the amazed heathens.
She's exhibiting her trewsow at the Outagamie County Fair this week, for the handwork and embroid'ry prize. Ain't it brazen? They say the crowd's so thick around the table that they had to take down the more pers'nal pieces. The first day of the fair the grand-stand was, you might say, empty, even when they was pullin' off the trottin' races and the balloon ascension.
The time is bound to come when the radiator, the crowd's fireplace-in-a-pipe, shall be made beautiful; and when the electric light shall be taught the secret of the candle; and when the especial problem of modern life of how to make two rooms as good as twelve shall be mastered æsthetically as well as mathematically; and when even the piano-folding, bed-bookcase-toilet-stand-writing-desk a crowd invention for living in a crowd shall either take beauty to itself or lead to beauty that serves the same end.
The man-sorting that goes on in distributing and producing property is the Crowd's most unremitting, most normal, temperamental way of determining and selecting its most efficient and valuable leaders its men who can express it, and who can act for it. This is the first reason I would give against letting the people rely on having a House of Commons compel business men to be good.
In particular I pondered the meaning of the crowd's strange attitude. Nor was it a riddle difficult to resolve. It was evident that believing Gambara, as they did, to be Giuliana's lover, and informed perhaps invention swelling rumour as it will that the Cardinal-legate had ridden late last night to Fifanti's house, it had been put about that the foul murder done there was Messer Gambara's work.
Other conservative newspapers followed suit.... Both Tallant and I were surprised to hear these sentiments out of the mouth of Mr. Jason. "You don't think that crowd's going to win, do you?" asked the owner of the Era, a trifle uneasily. "Win!" exclaimed the boss contemptuously. "They'll blow up, and you'll never hear of 'em.
But this ancient land was British in every blade of its grass, I thought root and crop, hill and dale, above and beneath, no single sod of it but was British. Surely nothing could alter that. Nine years of helotry! I heard again the confused din of the Westminster Riot; the frantic crowd's insistent demand for surrender, for unconditional surrender. And now the nation's word was pledged.
Its depth where it crossed the cavern's end could only be guessed by remembering the half-mile breadth of the waterfall. There were little lamps everywhere, perched on ledges amid the stalactites, and they suffused the whole cavern in golden glow, made the crowd's faces look golden and cast golden shimmers on the cold, black river bed.
Tester had been right. It was useless to look back to the past for guidance. He had a few hours back asked for some fixed standard by which to judge the false from the true. There were no standards except a man's own experience. Here at Fernhurst he had failed to find anything, because he had sought for the wrong things; he had at once accepted the crowd's statement for the truth.
The crowd's cheer rose in the names of their various favorites. Field-glasses were unbuckled. "By jolly, Firefly took the first jump in the lead," cried Harry, a thrill of admiration lightening the worry in his heart. "He's all right," said Owen. Over the wide green the horses began to string out, with Firefly ahead.
