Excerpt from The Cosmic Relations and Immortality, Vol. 1 of 2 Of course no one could sanely undertake an exhaustive treatment of the subject indicated by the title of this book. What I have attempted is an outline of the evolution of the relations between the soul and the external universe, and a summary of the recognized relations that are still so immaturely evolved as to be little understood. With the latest philosophy, I have assumed a ...

Excerpt from On the Cosmic Relations, Vol. 2Carrying to an extreme the principle that half a loaf is better than no bread, I will now give a few slices and some crumbs from Hodgson's masterly presentation of the consid erations which led him, from a fuller knowledge than has yet been possessed by all other men put together, to put a Spirit istic interpretation on Mrs. Piper's phenomena. I give these extracts, however, with considerable relucta...

Excerpt from The Unpopular Review, Vol. 6: July December, 1916 Amplification of the function of what we are pleased to call The Government, is going on with startling ra pidity, until any enterprise which concerns the welfare of a considerable portion of the constituency of a body politic is liable at any time to be taken in hand by the organiza tion which directs the political affairs of that body. And however conservative we may be as regar...

Excerpt from The Unpartizan Review, Vol. 14: July December 1920 Those who have read Herbert Spencer's story of his own life will recall that, during his early manhood, he was engaged in a subordinate capacity in building railways in England.

Excerpt from Talks on Civics Notwithstanding the space saved by doing away with question and answer, this edition is more than a hundred and fifty pages longer than the preceding one. The added matter contains its share of the sort of repeti tions that were confessed, and I hope justified, in the preface to the first edition. Most of it relates to the labor question socialism and municipal trading, and will be found principally in Chapters XI...

At the age of 67, Henry Holt struck off on a sailing adventure that would become a six-year voyage unlike any other way of seeing the world. The people he met and the challenges he faced along the way - from bureaucratic headaches at ports, to truly frightening weather events, to isolation from his friends and family while relying on their help from afar - only strengthened his commitment to the journey. Around the World in Six Years is an acc...

Excerpt from The Unpopular Review, Vol. 2: July December 1914 The "new social conscience" is essentially a class phenomenon. While it pretends to the role of inner monitor and guide to conduct for all mankind, it interprets good and evil in class terms. It manifests a special solicitude for the welfare of one social group, and a mute hostility toward another. Labor is its Esau, Capital its Jacob. Let strife arise between workingmen and their ...

Con formably with this, in 1741, certain bakers in New York were arrested for striking, and punished, and before the end of the century some cordwainers in Philadelphia h...

This portion is hurried out in popular form because of the present agitation of the subject.In the F orum for April I 895 the author suggested the need of a book in some such form, and gave, by way of example, an introduction to the currency question. This was copied in several of the hard-money campaign publication...
