The preface to the contents of this pamphlet, much of which had been published before imperialism had been as clearly defined as it now, and by the debates in the last Congress in which so many competent lawyers partici pated, has been prepared at the request of the Democratic State Committee of New York. The Democratic National Convention declared at Kansas City that the burning issue of imperialism, growing out of the Spanish war, involves the very existence of the Republic, and the destruction of our free institutions. We regard it as the paramount issue of the campaign.' Thereafter the issue could not be evaded. The Republican Campaign Text Book, recently issued by the Republican National Committee, has emphasized it as supreme, and attempted its definition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Imperial Republic "The fateful hours unnoted come; Unfelt the turning tides of doom." The events of 1898 have come upon America as a great surprise. Intervention in Cuba has involved what no man dreamed of. Do what we will, result how it may this is one of the historic eras. Our great nation is being swept along by a world-movement greater than itself. The philosopher must be profoundly impressed by such a crisis, while the devout mind must inquire whether this demand, coming without mans plan or prevision, yet so nearly resistless in its impulsion, be not a call of God. Our continental seclusion was narrowing the circle of our views and of our sympathies. Suddenly we find ourselves a part of the great family of man. Shall we stay with our race? It may be that the outlook could be had without the outreaching - that we might have world-wide interests and sympathies, tho we should have no extra-continental possessions. In fact, this has not been. But with our ships and our sons in the Caribbean and the Philippines, nothing that may happen on the round earth will be a matter of indifference to us evermore.

Expanding the treatment of those sections that were dealt with in that Address, I extended my survey over the rest of the broad domains of Nature, but still keeping on the whole with in the chronological limits of Latin literature originally chosen, that is, from the period of Lucretius to that of Statius.

Download or read book The Breakdown of the Roman Republic written by Christopher S. Mackay and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Christopher Mackay recounts the last century of the Roman Republic in a readable, narrative treatment. Within this narrative he analyzes the breakdown of the traditional Republican form of government as a result of the administrative and political crises brought about by the Roman conquest of the Mediterranean basin in the Middle Republic. He also shows how the many reforms instituted by Augustus, which effectively created the new imperial form of government, were a reaction to the failings of the Republic. Illustrated with an extensive collection of coin images that document the changes in contemporary political ideology, this volume also focuses on the political significance of the key personalities, including Marius, Sulla, and Caesar, who played a large role in the events that lead to the demise of the Roman Republic.

It was not with the Empire of the Caesars as it was with Persia, or Assyria, or Venice, or Poland, or Egypt for the Roman world was something more than a State, it was the aggregation of the whole of Medi terranean civilization under one form Of government, and about one imperial centre. NO invader from the barbarous regions beyond could, at one sweep, conquer or occupy more than a portion Of the vast whole that embraced southern and western Europe, northern Africa and western Asia nor could even the most savage and brutal Of invading kings resist the improved methods of life that met him in the provinces he conquered.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern History: From the Coming of Christ, and the Change of the Roman Republic Into an Empire, to the Year of Our Lord 1850 Sylla, having obtained, after his great victories, the Dictatorship for life, proved to the world that Rome could endure a master; like him, Pompey and Julius Caesar successively rendered themselves all-powerful. The violent death of the latter, who was slain in the Senate, augmented, instead of lessening the evil. There were now three competitors for the supreme power: Antony, Lepidus, and the young Octavius, grand-nephew and adopted son of Cesar. During their triumvirate, all in Rome who were most remarkable for their courage and their opposition to tyranny, were destroyed: Cicero was put to death; Brutus and Cassius were defeated at Philippi and with them expired the liberty of the Roman people.

Download or read book Republic Or Empire written by James W. Stillman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Republic or Empire?: An Argument in Opposition to the Establishment of an American Colonial System One of the various arguments which are advanced by the advocates and the supporters of the President's policy of territorial expansion is that the commercial interests of the United States imperatively demand that the markets of the old world should be thrown open to our surplus products. This is the principal ground upon which Senator Beveridge of Indiana, in his recent speech in the Senate, sought to justify the war which the Federal administration is now waging against the inhabitants of the Philippine Islands. As this speech is said correctly to represent the views of the President and of his coadjutors, it is worthy of more serious consideration than it would command were it merely an expression of the individual opinions of its author; and for that reason the writer of this article will inquire whether or not a colonial system can be inaugurated by the United States consistently with the fundamental principles upon which our Government was founded. Conceding for the purpose of this discussion the truth of all that the Senator has said concerning the great advantages which would accrue to our people by creating an increased demand for their manufactures and other products among the inhabitants of our so-called "new possessions," the question as to how a colonial system can be established or maintained under our Constitution as it now reads must first be considered; for no legislation by Congress which is contrary to the provisions of, or is forbidden by, that instrument can be valid and binding upon our citizens. If, after a careful examination thereof, it should appear that such a system is authorized thereby, we may then decide whether or not it ought to be adopted; and if we should be convinced that colonies would be advantageous to us we may proceed to establish them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Empire State: A Compendious History of the Commonwealth of New York Several years ago the author of this work received a letter from the late Hon. Horatio Seymour, urging him to supply a conspicuous literary want by writing a compendious history of the State of New York, and illustrating it after the manner of his Pictorial Field-Book of the Revolution. No work of the kind was then in existence, nor has there been since. It has been the chief aim of the author, in the preparation of this work, to embody in one volume, of moderate size and price, a complete outline narrative of the principal events in the career of the Commonwealth of New York from its inception to the close of the first century of our Republic (1875), so compact, as a whole, that its purchase and perusal will not burden the purses or the leisure of a vast proportion of our people. As much space has been given to notices of historic events outside of the State of New York as seemed necessary to continually present the Commonwealth to the mind of the reader as a most important part of the great Republic of the West.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New America: A Study of the Imperial Republic Ten years ago the republic was split up into sections of opinion, each having little sympathy with the other; now the solid South is shattered; State rights are fast dwindling into the rights possessed by English counties, or at most, Crown Colonies; a standing army of men has arisen, and a great fleet and mercantile marine are materializing.
