Excerpt from BimetallismOne might as well tell a physiologist that his science is false because no man ever existed whose organs were all perfectly normal in their functions, as to contradict an economist because no man ever acted from purely economic motives. Indeed the absurdity is far greater in the latter case, since the economist deals with societies, not individuals so that not only is the ih ference unfounded, but the fact alleged is un...

Excerpt from The Conquest of the United States by Spain: A Lecture Before the Phi Beta Kappa Society of Yale University, January 16, 1899War, expansion, and imperialism are questions of states manship and of nothing else. I disregard all other aspects of them, and all extraneous elements which have been inter mingled with them. I received the other day a circular of a new educational enterprise in which it was urged that, on account of our new...
