44. lappuse - ... we'd rather starve idle, than working." The labor monopoly of the United Mine Workers of America alone stands between the conditions of 1920 and those of 1896. To the extent that the monopoly is increased the miners' position is made more secure. CHAPTER VIII EARLY HISTORY OF UNIONS OF COAL MINERS WE have now reached the point at which it is necessary to consider the relative merits of complete organization of the coal miners in America and the disadvantages of a further extension of the union....
52. lappuse - Up to this point we have had nothing except poetry, but with Tullus Hostilius a kind of history begins, that is, events are related which must be taken in general as historical, though in the light in which they are presented to us they are not historical Thus, for example, the destruction of Alba is historical, and so in all probability is the reception of the Albans at Rome. The conquests of Ancus Martius are quite credible ; and they appear like an oasis of real history in the midst of fables.
67. lappuse - ... conducted it into the Tiber, and thus changed the lake into solid ground; but as the Tiber itself had a marshy bank, a large wall was built as an embankment, the greater part of which still exists. This structure equalling the pyramids in extent and massiveness, far surpasses them in the difficulty of its execution. It is so gigantic, that the more one examines it, the more inconceivable it becomes how even a large and powerful state could have executed it. In comparison with it, the aqueducts...
37. lappuse - ... founder of Rome; and the well-known tradition, with its ancient poetical details, many of which Livy and Dionysius omitted from their histories lest they should seem to deal too much in the marvellous, runs as follows: Numitor and Amulius were contending for the throne of Alba. Amulius took possession of the throne, and made Rea Silvia, the daughter of Numitor, a vestal virgin, in order that the Silvian house might become extinct. This part of the story was composed without any insight into political...
66. lappuse - But after him a state of things is described by the historians, of which traces are still visible. Even at the present day there stands unchanged the great sewer, the cloaca maxima, the object of which, it may be observed, was not merely to carry away the refuse of the city, but chiefly to drain the large lake which was formed by the Tiber between the Capitoline, Aventine and Palatine, then extended between the Palatine and Capitoline, and reached as a swamp as far as the district between the Quirinal...
338. lappuse - Quirinal ; and the astonished Gauls are said to have done him no harm — a tradition which is not improbable. The provisions in the Capitol were exhausted, but the Gauls themselves being seized with epidemic diseases became tired of their conquests, and were not inclined to settle in a country so far away from their own home. They once more attempted to take the Capitol by storm, having observed that the messenger from Veii had ascended the rock, and come down again near the Porta Carmentalis, below...
42. lappuse - ... common opinion that the Patricians were descended from the free companions of Romulus, and that those who took refuge in the asylum placed themselves as clients under the protection of the real free citizens. But now they wanted women, and attempts were made to obtain the connubium with neighboring towns, especially perhaps with Antemnae, which was only four miles distant from Rome, with the Sabines and others. This being refused Romulus had recourse to a stratagem, proclaiming that he had discovered...
x. lappuse - They may be used as an introduction to, or as a running commentary on, Niebuhr's great work. . . . Even those who by a careful study have acquired a thorough familiarity with the three volumes of the Roman History, will find in these Lectures much that is new and striking.
240. lappuse - ... Volscians. formed such a rallying point for them. As he thus found a small army of Roman emigrants who were joined by Volscians, he marched with them to the Roman frontier, not that he imagined he would be able to force his way through the gates or walls of Rome, but he encamped near it and declared war The Republic invited him to return ; the entreaties of his mother, his wife, and the other matrons, who implored him, can have no other meaning than that he should return alone and not bring with...
52. lappuse - The history which then follows is like a picture viewed from the wrong side, like phantasmata; the names of the kings are perfectly fictitious; no man can tell how long the Roman kings reigned, as we do not know how many there were...
