Under democratic forms this truth con veys a special meaning. Democracy has an abiding faith in education. Its very existence depends upon a wide diffusion of knowledge among its members. Its mainstay is a moral, social, and educated electorate. Where ignorance thrives, free institutions must inevitably fail. Autocracy thrives where minds are held in bondage.
