Сторінка 83 - The entire strength of the nation may be used to enforce in any part of the land the full and free exercise of all national powers and the security of all rights entrusted by the Constitution to its care. The strong arm of the national government may be put forth to brush away all obstructions to the freedom of interstate commerce or the transportation of the mails. If the emergency arises, the army of the Nation, and all its militia, are at the service of the Nation to compel obedience to its laws.
Сторінка 91 - We wish for no victories but those of peace; for no territory except our own; for no sovereignty except the sovereignty over ourselves. We deem the independence and equal rights of the smallest and weakest member of the family of nations entitled to as much respect as those of the greatest empire, and we deem the observance of that respect the chief guaranty of the weak against the oppression of the strong.

Сторінка 152 - Engelhardtia (Oreomunnea) in Central America. Since Ettingshausen's announcement a dozen or more fossil species have been described. The oldest known European form occurs in the upper Eocene or lower Oligocene (Ligurien) of France and the species become increasingly abundant throughout southern Europe especially toward the close of the Oligocene and the dawn of the Miocene, Saporta stating that the slabs from the leaf-beds at Armissan in southeastern France are thickly strewn with their peculiar...
Сторінка 81 - There should, however, be no particle of doubt as to the power of the National Government completely to perform and enforce its own obligations to other nations. The mob of a single city may at any time perform acts of lawless violence against some class of foreigners which would plunge us into war.
Сторінка 121 - I globe had a transverse velocity of three quarters (or anything more than .71) of a kilometer per second, they would just escape collision, and would revolve in ellipses round their common center of inertia in a period of one year, just grazing each other's surface every time they came to the nearest points of their orbits.
