Excerpt from The Governance of Empire The object of presenting this work to the public is twofold. Firstly, as a colonial, my desire is to present a colonial view of the imperial idea, and, secondly, to endeavour to arouse among my countrymen, in the United Kingdom especially, a greater interest and pride in the Empire beyond the seas. My critics may point to the number of able works bearing directly or indirectly upon the British Empire which have been published within recent years, and it may even be said that I am repeating an oft-told tale, that many of the suggestions which I now put forward, with all due deference to these self-same critics, have been made before. My reply is, The thing that hath been, is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing under the sun (eccles. I.

Excerpt from Step by Step, the Governance of Empire The essay which follows is based on the essay which won the prize of one hundred guineas offered through the "Standard of Empire" by a patriotic and public-spirited correspondent for the best short essay (3,000 words) on "The Governance of Empire." That competition closed September 1st, 1909, the announcement being made March 11th, 1910. "Essays were sent in from British subjects living in practically every country in the world, a circumstance which affords eloquent testimony to the widespread and patriotic interest taken in the subject of the competition, and incidentally may be regarded as a gratifying indication of the wide area over which the Empire newspaper travels."

Excerpt from The Government of the British Empire It is, perhaps, needless to say, that this book is not intended to compete with the standard works on the Constitution which have been produced by eminent writers, such as the late Sir William Anson, the late Bishop Stubbs, or Professor Dicey, happily still with us. Still less does it claim to rival the classical monographs on the various aspects of the Constitution which are the work of experts in the strict sense. It is written only in the hope that those who have not yet the leisure, or who have not yet arrived at the age, to appreciate these larger works, will be enabled by it to look forward to that advantage at a later date. And the immediate prospect of a largely increased electorate, combined with the great stimulus of interest in problems of government produced by the war, would seem to make that hope reasonable. For the many defects of the book, the writer will not apologize; for lie knows that critics best able to appreciate the difficulty of writing it, will be the readiest to forgive them. He will merely deprecate the suggestion that the book is a "precis" of larger treatises. So far as it goes, it is original both in plan and execution, and from first-hand material. For neither plan nor execution is any one but the writer responsible. Nevertheless, it is the waiter's keen pleasure, as well as his bounden duty, to tender his grateful thanks to those acquaintances and friends who have been ungrudging with their help on the matters upon which he has appealed to them.
