appealed　to　a　future　that　has　no　warrant　in　the　past；　and　fixing



their　gaze　upon　the　distant　dreamland；　captivated　by　the　vision



there　beheld；　entranced　by　its　ideal　effulgence；　their　eyes　were



blinded　to　the　real　conditions　of　the　human　problem　they　had　set



before　them。　　Their　enemies　have　not　been　slow　to　note　such



weakness　and　mistake；　and　perhaps　it　may　serve　to　clear　up



misconceptions；　perhaps　it　may　serve　to　lessen　cant　and　open　the



way　for　fresh　and　vigorous　thought；　if　we　shall　once　convince



ourselves　that　altruism　cannot　be　the　rule　of　life；　that　its



logical　result　is　the　dwarfing　of　the　individual　man；　and　that



not　by　the　death　of　human　personality　can　we　hope　to　banish　the



evils　of　our　day；　and　to　realize　the　ideal　of　all　existence；　a



nobler　or　purer　life。
