Excerpt from Studies in History, Economics, and Public Law, Vol. 79 The definitions given to the term unemployment by the various authorities cited vary widely, some using it to cover merely the involuntary idleness of able-bodied workers, others cloaking under it all idleness, whatso ever its cause or nature. The limiting extent to which certain authorities apply the term is indicated in the con sideration of their theories. Throughout this paper, how ever, unless otherwise noted, the term is used in a broad sense; in the writer's opinion the vagrant and other types of unemployables are legitimate elements of theproblem of unemployment, even though the social or industrial cause be one step further removed than in the case of the temporarily unemployed wage earner.

Excerpt from Studies in History Economics and Public Law, Vol. 9 The present practical problems of American public law are largely administrative. The spheres of the national and commonwealth governments were delimited by the Civil War, and the delimitation then reached has been recognized by subsequent legislation. The relation of commonwealth and local governments now demands our attention, and a solution of the problem becomes more urgent as each year passes. The origin of the problem is comparatively recent. In the early years of our history the need of a careful delimitation of the spheres of local authorities and a determination of their relations to each other and to the state government, was very slight. But the last hundred years have witnessed most radical changes. The functions of government have increased enormously. In the period of early frontier life, the activity of the local government was almost limited to the protection of life and property. Indeed, frequent reliance was placed upon the individual himself to act as his own guardian. Soon, however, schools were established, high ways constructed, and as population increased, other func tions were assumed by the localities. It was not, however, until cities sprang up that the subject assumes its greatest importance. The various gigantic municipal enterprises of the present day - waterworks, street railways, gas and electric lighting, parks and commons, paved streets, public libraries and museums, sewerage systems, fire departments - were largely unknown fifty or one hundred years ago.

Excerpt from Studies in History Economics and Public Law, 1910, Vol. 38 The importance of population movements in the United States and the occupation of the Public Domain rests in the fact that they have created a condition of successive change; of social unstability; of social, economic and poli tical restlessness; and have carried with them peculiarly vital developments in various phases of American life. No population removal of history, perhaps, has been accom panied by any more marked social phenomena than that be ginning in America at the close of the Revolutionary War and continuing to the present. No movement within the range of modern times has been fraught with greater im port than has this one which transplanted a portion of the roots of a vigorous people on a restricted sea-board to the wilds of a frontier which shortly teemed with life and civilization.
