Excerpt from Colonial Government: An Introduction to the Study, of Colonial Institutions
In these days we often encounter the statement that as the United States in its national development did not build on precedent, but struck out boldly along new lines, so also in respect to the government of dependencies we may safely rely upon the genius of the American people to find the proper solution for all vexing problems, without recurrence to the experience of other nations. But, as a matter of fact, the two situations are not parallel. The growth of the American nation on a virgin continent, which stimulated energetic action by its boundless resources, has been unique both in the conditions of its environment, in the amalgamation of many distinct ingredients, and in the flexibility of social and political structure.
