Excerpt from The Philosophy of the History of the Louisiana Purchase Voltaire had been the companion of the German in fidel King Frederick. The companion and at the same time his menial, he surrendered his own manhood for the sovereign patronage. The superior sagacity and powers Of the German monarch gave to Voltaire audac ity in his attack upon the French hierarchy. But the French hierarchy was the corner stone Of the French monarchy. The feudal system was its citadel. The church, the military and royalty, were the trinity of tyrants, who must stand or fall together. Under the ferocious attack of Voltaire a skepticism spread every where through the French Empire. The people, who had no voice in the government, yet by nature born of God and ordained to self-government, combined in secret societies for self-improvement, self-government, and the protection of their families, and the right to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These societies spread, grew in numbers, knowledge and power, until there was a government within the government stronger than the government itself.

Excerpt from Louisiana Purchase: As It Was, and as It Is Some events cannot be fully measured at the time of their occurrence. It requires decades, even centuries, to disclose their full significance. Standing at the primal springs of a stream, one can but imperfectly judge what the stream may become before it shall meet and mingle with the sea. Little did either France or the United States dream, on that eventful last day of April, 1803. of all that lay in the sale by the one, and the purchase by the other, of the vast and unknown territory called "Louisiana." But at the distance of a century one is able to gauge somewhat the event that at one bold business stroke doubled the area of the young republic; and made possible the founding of a dozen great and masterful states. Next to the winning of our national independence, the purchase of Louisiana had perhaps the largest influence in the development of our country.

Excerpt from The World Aspects of the Louisiana Purchase Argument by title is a very attractive form of fallacy. We therefore freely confess that it is rather a thesis we have to establish than a theme to unfold when we speak of the Louisi ana purchase as a decisive epoch of general history and of American history in particular. Moreover, there is a sense in which every moment throughout the comparatively short duration of recorded history is a decisive one; in the pursuit of that idea the verge between sound, solemn truth, and fauci ful fiction is but a razor edge.
