Between such a Socialism and the materialised capitalistic Liberalism against which true So- cialism is a revolt and a protest, there need not be any insurmountable antagonism ; it is not beyond possibility that the two might enter into an unholy alliance. A counter-alliance between what is vital in Socialism and what yet lives in Liberalism may be only a dream ; yet it is a dream in which one would willingly d 25 indulge. But it would be essential to such an alliance that it should be on eithe...r side given, and not bought or sold ; still less, that in order to make it, either party should step down on to a lower level and forfeit for no return the flower of its inheritance. A materialised So- cialism might be even a worse thing than a materialised Liberalism in proportion as the ideal from which it had fallen was higher. What is quite certain is, that the ideals of Liberalism or of any other creed would be ill exchanged for a Socialism that had renounced its ideals, or " like the fiend paltered with them in a double sense.
