The Spirit Of The Common Law, Roscoe Pound

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

These lectures speak in large part from the second decade of the present [20th] century; and they show the faith in the efficacy of effort and belief that the administration of justice may be improved by conscious intelligent action which characterized that time. The recrudescence of juristic pessimism in the past three years has not led me to abandon that point of view. At the end of the nineteenth century lawyers thought attempt at conscious improvement was futile. Now many of them think it is dangerous. In the same way the complacent nothing-needs-to-be-done attitude of Blackstone, who in the spirit …

Laureate Address Of John G. Neihardt Upon Official Notification Of His Choice As Poet Laureate Of Nebraska, John G. Neihardt

Nebraskiana Publications: Resources and Materials on the 37th State

I want to talk to you about the technique of Poetry and the relation of that art to education and the social process in general. In order that you may be able to judge as to the relevance of my remarks, I must first tell you what I understand by the word "education. "

Were the definition, that I hold, my own, I would not presume to offer it here; but I need only find the proper words with which to express the common opinion of many seers in many times and countries; and this, unfortunately, seems now to be …

The Co-Operative Movement In Nebraska, Maurice H. Weseen

Department of Political Science: Faculty Publications

"Cut out the middleman." Thus runs the slogan adopted by a conference of representatives of farm and labor organizations held in Chicago a few weeks ago. Perhaps no one of the many suggestions for reducing the high cost of living is more popular or more prevalent at the present moment than this one which recommends the elimination of the middleman. The American Farm Bureau Federation, a national organization with executive committee members from Massachusetts to California, charges that the high prices paid by the consumer are altogether disproportionate to the prices received by the producer and that the middleman is …

On The Comparison Of Adverbs In English In The Fourteenth Century, Alma Hosic

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The following investigation deals with the comparison of adverbs in English in the fourteenth century. This century seems especially important in the history of adverb comparison, since it represents the close of the dialectal period and the beginning of the transition period from Middle to Modern English. A chief purpose has been to connect the adverbial forms of the fourteenth century with those of the preceding and following centuries.

Examples are very full but not exhaustive. The majority of the important literary monuments of the century have been examined. The examples, however, are fuller for the Northern and Midland than …

Nebraska: Her Resources, Advantages, And Development, Joseph Garneau, Jr.

Nebraskiana Publications: Resources and Materials on the 37th State

Almost midway between the two greatest oceans of the world, its eastern boundary marked by the rapid flowing Missouri, the westernmost counties shadowed by the towering ranges of the Rockies, with the land of the Dakotas to the north and the great agricultural state of Kansas to the south, lies the garden spot of that vast and shadowy country (which but a few short years since was only known as The Great American Desert).

Today it is the State of Nebraska, the happy home of one million and a half of thrifty, industrious and prosperous people. In less than a …

Creameries And Dairying In Nebraska: What Has Been Done And What May Be Done (1883), J. T. Allan

Department of Agricultural Economics: News, Announcements, and Information

The question with every farmer is, how to make the most from his land. Grain growing by itself will not do it, but grain, stock and dairying will. While crops of corn, oats, rye and millet are growing, the cows are turning the grass of the prairie into butter, calves and hogs. The butter brings cash monthly; the calves and hogs convert the grain into beef and pork. The demand for butter, cheese and condensed milk is increasing faster than the supply, and the market at our western doors, where good articles will always bring the highest prices, will take …

The Gentleman’S Companion. New York City. In 1870, Anonymous, Paul Royster (Depositor)

Electronic Texts in American Studies

This is a pocket-sized guide to the prostitution industry or sex trade in New York City in 1870--a directory of its brothels, barrooms, and houses of assignation. It is a remarkable record of the demimonde in the post-Civil War city that housed an estimated 20,000 prostitutes.

In the following pages some shadows, dirt spots, and microfilm scratches have been removed, but the text remains unaltered. The pagination appears unorthodox in places due to interpolated advertisements for various establishments.

A copy of the work held in the New-York Historical Society is reprinted online with commentary at https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/documents/a-vest-pocket-guide-to-brothels-in-19th-century-new-york-for-gentlemen-on-the-go?mcubz=0
