My purpose in writing this book has been to make a clear statement of the exact present conditions and relationships of the Negro in American Hfe. I am not vain enough to imagine that I have seen all the truth, nor that I have always placed the proper emphasis upon the facts that I here present. Every investigator necessarily has his personal equation or point of view. The best he can do is to set down the truth as he sees it, without bating a jot or adding a tittle, and this I have done. I have endeavoured to see every problem, not as a Northerner, noras a Southerner, but as an A merican. And I have looked at the Negro, not merely as a menial, as he is commonly regarded in the South, noras a curiosity, as he is often seen in the North, but as a plain human being, animated with his own hopes, depressed by his own fears, meeting his own problems with failure or success. 1have accepted no statement of fact, however generally made, until I was fully persuaded from my own personal investigation that what I heard was really a fact and not a rumour. Wherever I have ventured upon conclusions, I claim for them neither infallibility nor originality. They are offered frankly as my own latest and clearest thoughts upon the various subjects discussed. If any man can give me better evidence for the error of my conclusions than I have for the truth of them I am prepared to go with him, and gladly, as far as he can prove his way. And I have offered my conclusions, not in a spirit of controversy, nor in behalf of any party or section of the country, but in the hope that, by inspiring a broader outlook, they may lead, finally, to other conclusions more nearly approximating the truth than mine.

The Negro Problem is a collection of several essays by prominent American writers, such as W.E.B. Du Bois and Paul Laurence Dunbar, edited by Booker T. Washington. The book was published in 1903. It covered important topics like law, education, disenfranchisement, and Black Americans' place in American society.

While it is not within the purview of our purpose to de fend the institution of slavery, as it existed in the South ern States, either upon moral or political grounds, yet we would not vindicate the truth of history, in passing over in silence the real authors of an institution that has been the theme of such bitter invective at the hands of their intol erant and hypocritical descendants. Massachusetts and Connecticut were among the first colonies to introduce African slavery upon their soil, and conducted 'the new en terprise with more interest and zeal than any of their sister colonies. Massachusetts in particular had an addition al incentive to stimulate her to engage in the slave traffic; for, besides the demand for the African as a laborer to till her soil, she enjoyed a monopoly of the shipping in terest among the colonies, and did not stop at that early day to consider the horrors of the middle passage, but at once fitted out her ship for the coast of Africa, and con tinned this species of merchandise as long as she could find a market for the so-called human chattels. Virginia, and other more Southern colonies, entered an earnest re monstrance against the slave trade, and raised an issue with the New England colonies against its continuance, which was not met in a spirit of compromise by those men, whose descendants, eighty years later, began a sectional war to overturn an institution their fathers had been mainly instrumental in setting up.

Discreteness and continuity and inherent potencies Inherent energy contrary to laws of nature and motion Every atom its own god, the only alternative to theism.

First, then, as to the ultimate and universal ele ments of phenomena. These are three in number, the element of Feeling, which we have called the material element; the element of Time or duration; and the element of Space, which primarily attaches only to the two kinds of feeling known as sight and touch, including or combined with sense of effort in muscle or nerve. The two latter elements, those of Time and Space, are called the formal elements.

The present volume is an attempt to prepare the ground for a convincing exposition of the strong points of Scholastic Cosmology. The main difference between it and most contemporary treatises on the same topic is a more generous usage of the historic method in the treatment of metaphysical problems: a revival, as the Introduction points out, of the precept and practice of Aristotle and St. Thomas.The introductory chapter deals with four preliminary topics: the origin in ancient Greece of Science and Philosophy - as synonyms; the emergence in late sixteenth century Europe of Natural Science and Cosmology - as irreconcilable rivals; the subsequent rectification of frontiers, and the resulting chasm nowadays between the ideals of the natural scientist and the cosmologist; the importance attributed by St. Thomas to Cosmology as a basis of Rational Theism. This Introduction is followed by four chapters on Greek Cosmology which explain the rise and the development of Aristotle's Cosmology. The next five chapters are devoted to an exposition of the complex speculative system reared on that Cosmology by the medieval Schoolmen under the leadership of St. Thomas, Scotus, and Suarez. A final chapter tells how this Cosmology was driven from the universities of Europe by the gibes of the Humanists, by anti-Aristotelian discoveries in Natural Science, and - above all - by the break of decadent Schoolmen with the best traditions of their forbears.A second volume will be published to prove that the resumption, since the Leonine revival, of the older traditions of Aristotelian Scholasticism has resulted in a Scholastic Cosmology which is more in accordance with the assured results of modem science and modem philosophy than any of its contemporary rivals.

It will, moreover, be a delusive assumption to hold that Nature's intrinsic connections can be gained by experience, or by any logical deductions from experi ence. Appearances will be found in uniform colloca tions and invariable successions; but the fact of uni form appearances together in place will not warrant a logical conclusion of a substance in which they in here, nor will the fact of appearances in an invariable' order of sequence admit of the logical conclusion that they adhere together in a causal efficiency. Not less illogical must it be to rise from such assumed sub stances and causes to one absolute substance or cause. Philosophy and Theology must alike be im possible for any sense-attainment, or an understand ing-judgment as a. Conclusion from sense. If we have not the faculty for an insight into experience which finds a deeper meaning than the mere appear ance, then must we be incapable either to be wise or to love wisdom.

Some of the material in Chapters I, II, and V of this volume has already appeared in the Psychological Review; and Chapters XV, XVI, and XVII have been reprinted without very much change. They first appeared as articles in the same journal. In Chapter XXXIII I have made some use of two articles published in the Popular Science Monthly. The chapters on Space and Time are reprinted from the Philosophical Review with little change except that, in Chapter XI, some new matter has been added. To the editors of the journals mentioned, Professor Cattell, Professor Baldwin, and Professor Creighton, my thanks are due for their courtesy in permitting me to reprint as I have done.Thus, about one-fourth of the present volume has already seen the light. It is right that I should say that nothing that has already appeared has been taken up into the book as an afterthought. From the beginning the work has been a unit; it has been for a number of years on my hands, and the publication of the papers above mentioned was due largely to a curiosity to see how the doctrines advocated would impress others. It was, perhaps, hardly fair to present them deprived of their setting, and this injustice, if injustice it be, is remedied now.At the end of the book I have placed a note on the Physical World Order, by my former pupil. Professor Edgar A. Singer, Jr., of the University of Pennsylvania. It has seemed to me of especial interest, as coming from one trained in metaphysical analysis and familiar with the principles and methods of the sciences.
