Excerpt from The People's Law A minority can thus prevent a change until the majority become so large as to give those desiring a change a two-thirds vote in the Sen ate and House, and then it can per manently obstruct the carrying out Of the popular will on a constitutional question if it can control I 3 States out of 48. We need, and I doubt not shall some day secure, an amend ment to the Federal Constitution making it easier for a majority to change the Constitution, either by striking out that which has become objectionable or by adding that which has become desirable.

Excerpt from The People's Law: Or Popular Participation in Law-Making From Ancient Folk-Moot to Modern Referendum; A Study in the Evolution of Democracy and Direct Legislation IT is significant that nearly the whole body of the scientific litera ature of American history has been produced during the forty years since the close of the Civil War. Before that time a few writers like Bancroft, Hildreth, and Parkman had found at home themes worthy of their pens; while many others essayists, novelists, and historians alike - were still harking back to the twice-told tales of the Old World. With the end of the final struggle for the consolidation of the federal Union a marvellous change took place: suddenly a vast unexplored field of American life was disclosed. American history, in its every aspect, became exceedingly attractive to American stu dents; and there arose a keen and healthy rivalry in its exploitation. The result is inspiring and full of promise. We have no just reason to be ashamed of the historical output of the past four decades. A goodly number of general works of first-rate quality narrative, biographical, and institutional have appeared; while every month extends the formidable list of special monographs. Indeed it is be coming more and more clear that without such a precedent mono graphic literature a full and true national history cannot be produced. Such a history must proceed, directly or indirectly, from the coopera tion of a host of scholars. It must rest on the basis of a microscopic examination of every part of the source materials. Thus, incidentally, we perceive the important function of the academic dissertation; for a very large share of our historiography consists of collegiate and university theses the worthy product of the quarter of a century of graduate study in the United States. Much of this literature deals with the history of institutions. For this fact there are two adequate causes. On the one hand, institutions afford the best opportunity for scientific historical train ing. Institutions are essentially biological in character, since they are the resultant or residuum of human experience. In a very real sense they are the outward or concrete expression of human habits.

Excerpt from Commercial Law Chitty's modification of Blackstone's definition does bring out the correct idea more clearly. For our purpose, these two definitions are sufficient. The systems OF law. - There are two chief systems of law in use among civilized peoples today, the Roman or civil law, and, the English or common law. The Roman, or civil law (roman law is spoken of as civil law, from the Latin civilis, belong ing to a citizen) as its name implies, originated in Rome. As the city of Rome developed into the Roman Empire, its law became that of the ancient world. It was finally codified by the Roman Emperor Justinian, in the year 530 a.d., and was eventually absorbed, from the twelfth to the eighteenth century, into the law of modern Europe. It is the basis of the systems of law used in the countries of continental Europe, Central and South America, and all French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch colonies or countries settled by those peoples.

Excerpt from The Belgian People's War: A Violation of International Law In laying an English translation of the German White-Book on the franctireur war in Belgium before the public it should be pointed out - as may also be seen from the numbering of the annexes - that the English version is not a complete rendering of the German original. Of the annexes, which contain over two hundred and twenty affidavits and reports, only about one-third have been included, so as to save the reader a wearisome repetition of numerous similar incidents and to give him, with less labor to himself, an approximate idea of the kind of actions indulged in by the Belgian civilian population. The German original is open for inspection at the Imperial German Embassy and the Imperial German Consulates in this country.

Excerpt from Legal History: Law and Social Change The nonprofessional study of law as a basic element in both liberal and business or technical education is today the subject of keen interest and a focal point of widening intellectual horizons. The fact that our legal institutions open avenues to the deeper under standing of our culture, our history, our polity and our economy is increasingly appreciated, while it remains generally accepted that basic analysis of the methods and substance of the common law is an essential ele ment in technical training for business.

Excerpt from The Spirit of Our Laws A great many people take an interest in the law without being lawyers or litigants or specialists of any sort. They like to understand something of what is going on around them, and for their law they have to trust to snatches from the newspapers. Though, possibly, both writer and reader are well-educated persons, the exact point or points on which the report turns is almost certain to be missed, for neither has any training to catch it. Hence the frequent exclamation, I can't understand this case; however could such a decision have been arrived at? And, of course, the bewilderment is greater where there is any desire even to scratch beneath the surface. Yet between the formal study of the law and the perusal of the daily newspaper there is no satisfaction for the amateur reader, better, perhaps, known as the general reader. A professed lawyer, of course, would not dream of trusting an ordinary newspaper report (with a few exceptions) for practical purposes, even for his own guidance; for he requires at least a certain degree of accuracy, and may require the highest.

Excerpt from The Independent State of the Congo: And International Law If we recall these elementary ideas, it is because the are too often lost sight of; too often writers and jurists neglect them, either on account of their holding fast to theories long since dead, or because they do not take into account the changes that have occurred in the domain of fact. The old definitions showed, in the law of nations, the law which existed between several peoples or between the chiefs of peoples, as Grotius said; they recognised the applicability of its rules to dynasties and sovereign houses. In contemporary legal science, international law only governs the relations of States. The modern State itself is an institution quite different from the ancient forms of the political community. The word State, let us repeat (I), made its appearance tolerably slowly; it comes from that Italy of the close of the Middle Ages where almost all the creations of politics were produced; the State, lo Stato, was composed of the persons immediately around the Prince; it was the assemblage of those who directed and governed. Later the essence itself of the State, regarded as the central power, was modified. New attributes were conferred upon it; it was no longer a question of the ancient authority, tangible and visible, which manifested itself especially for the purpose of threatening and punishing. The idea of a juridical person made itself accepted, a person distinct from chiefs and citizens, a person whose will is itself distinct from the wills of its members.

Excerpt from Elementary Law: For the General Public Acts of Parliament contain a clause specifying their short title, and to many others short titles were given by an Act passed in 1896, called The Short Titles Act, 1896. Each Act has also a full title, consisting of the heading prefixed to the Act. The references to decided cases indicate the Reports in which they are to be found. The Reports have full names, consisting in many cases of the names of the reporters who published them but there are certain recognized abbreviations by which they are all known. Printed lists of these abbrevia tions are to be found in all law libraries, and lawyers soon become familiar with them, so that there is no need to embody them in any law book. In composing this book it has been the writer's endeavour to use ordinary language as far as possible, and to give an explanation of each legal term the first time that it is used. An index including all terms so explained will be found at the end of the book; so that any one coming across an unexplained term in any part of the book, may turn to the index and be directed to the page on which an explanation will be found.
