PREFACE.

THE subject of this monograph was chosen in 1891 while I was taking post-graduate work at Columbia University. The first draft was nearly finished in the spring of 1894 when I was compelled to give up work for a time on account of ill health. Engaging in academic work in the fall of 1894 I was again obliged to set the monograph aside until the winter of 1900. Since then it has been completely rewritten and chapter VIII added. For his constant interest and encouragement I feel greatly indebted to Professor Seligman. for otherwise the monograph would not have been completed. I wish. also. to take this occasion to express my appreciation for the courtesy shown to me by the Faculty of Political Science of Columbia Uni­ versity in giving so much extension of time for the comple­ tion of my monograph. To Dr. Alvin S. Johnson. of Columbia U~iversity. I am indebted for verbal changes of text and for reading of proof. S.F.W. AlrnOCH CoLUGII, Y&LI.OW S.... IKGS. OHIO. May. 19OJ. TABLE OF CONTENTS ....
