Or is it not rather hard to be dragged to earth in this callous fashion, while soaring heavenward on the wings of our edifying reflections? For the rest the old, old story; a simple, physical explanation of what used to be an enigma brimful of moral significance. That Mr. Jones's facts and arguments will be found applicable to other decayed races in the old and new worlds is highly probable.
Therefore the great principle of looking to the actual state of administration of the form of government and leaving the mere form of state in the background is a principle that is applicable under all circumstances and should be followed by all critics of politics.
