Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Indiana The production of this work is the result of a belief that there is a field for a new history of Indiana, briefer in general narrative, though fuller in political and constitutional history, than other standard works heretofore published. The word political is of course used in its governmental and not its partisan sense, though every phase of the state's history is treated according to its relative impor tance, the activities of the leading political parties not excepted.

It was one of the changes in American thought considered worthv of especial note hv Hon. James llrvce, on his recent visit to this country after an absence of twentv-iive vears. This keen student of American institutions thus expresses the result of his observation: Reverence for the past and a desire to maintain every sort of connection with it is a strong and growing force among educated people. L'ttrtlierinore, this is one of the hopeful signs of the times. Well it is, for the nation as for the individual. When its career is anchored at both ends. Is descended from a sturdy and virile ancestry and looks forward to a not less worthv posterity. Rejoices both in the memories of a splendid past and in the hopes of a brilliant future. Such a nation or individual holds true in the course of best ideals and en deavors. Is in the line of progress of the greater destiny.

The two, with various amendments added in later years, covered the public library system of the State until' after the adoption of the Constitution of 1851. The county libraries thus established furnished the chief part of the books to which the Indiana public had access during the remainder of the first half of the present century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from County Option in Indiana It is not only the privilege, it is the right and the bounden duty of every man living in a free commonwealth to speak the truth to his fellows, without fear or favor, as God gives him to see and understand the truth, concerning any matter affecting the public welfare. One's countrymen are entitled to the reason for the faith by which he walks. They may not accept his faith, but his reasons for his faith are their just due. This is peculiarly true of one who has held at the hands of his fellows high place in the conduct of the commonwealth's affairs. I am here today to embrace that privilege, to claim that right and discharge that duty concerning a matter which I have long felt and do now. Feel to be of deep and abiding importance to this people - a people, who, in the light of my many limitations and temperamental defects, have signally honored me, making me thereby their debtor to the end of my days, be they few or many. For months I have not spoken on any public question. But the time has come when conditions in the state and gratitude for past favors compel me to break my silence. I speak disinterestedly. If I know my soul I have no wish but the public good, no desire but the happiness of this people. The fires of self interest burn low on the hearthstone of my heart. My country has become my larger self, the dearest part of me. I have no machine or organization to pro mote; no patronage to bestow; no favorites to reward; no foes to punish. I seek no office; no public preferment of any kind. There is absolutely nothing within your power to give or bestow that I desire you to do for me other than to hear me for my cause, to give consideration to what I say relating to matters of public concern, and to permit me to continue to abide among you and share your destiny, whatever that destiny may be, until my life's measure shall be filled.

This book was released on 2018-10-05 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indiana Houses of the Nineteenth Century Inﬂuences of buildings in neighboring states to the east and south can be detected in many of the houses in Indiana. As settlers moved into the new lands, they brought with them clear impressions of the houses they formerly had lived in, and as soon as their economic status permitted, they erected new homes comparable to those left behind. Among the first dwellings erected by the early settlers were log cabins. As fascinating and romantic as these are to many people today, they are not being considered in this book because our theme is artistic architectural design, not mere housing. It should be pointed out, however, that numerous log cabins and log houses are to be found in Indiana today. Contrary to popular belief, all of the dwellings erected by the first settlers were not necessarily of log construction, nor were log cabins exclusively used at any one time. While it is true that they represent the typical home of the pioneer who settled in a wooded area, they were erected in different parts of the state at different times, some fairly late in the nineteenth century. In many early communities log houses stood beside or not far from frame and brick buildings, only to be replaced by more stately domiciles when the owners could afford something better. When, for instance, the Lincoln family was living in the humblest sort of log cabin in Spencer County (1816 18 there were many fine residences in southern Indiana.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Hundred Years in Public Health in Indiana In the same paper, under date of September 3, 1808, the editor says: It is also not uncommon to see carcasses of horses, dogs, hogs, etc., lying in the streets and on the common near the village. This is not only highly offensive, but very injurious-to the health of the inhabitants. As' to cleanliness, the village is no better than an Indian camp. It is not recol lected that the trustees of the town have taken any measures to remedy the above abuses, or if they have they have not been carried into effect. For an editor who found it necessary to accept pork and ﬂax on subscription, and at a time when the gentle art of dueling was still in vogue, the above exhibits a degree of editorial courage and zeal for the cause of public health scarcely attained by the modern press.

This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical and Historical Sketches of Early Indiana Many of the sketches contained in this book were originally published in the Indianapolis Journal. These, and such as have been given the public in other papers, have been carefully revised and rewritten. Some of the sketches, how ever, were prepared expressly for this work. I have not written of living men, but only of those who have passed away. The dead Governors of Indiana - both Territorial and State - are sketched, and monographs of other distinguished men are given. The book contains other papers, of a historical character, the whole making a work which, I hope, will prove of permanent value. The information contained in this book, which necessarily develops much of the early political history of the State, was obtained from various sources, and can not elsewhere be found without great research and labor. N o inconsiderable part of it is derived from the author's own observation and recollection, and would pass away with him were it not committed to writing. Should this book be favorably received' by the public, it will, most probably, be followed by another of similar character, for the author is in possession of abundant material for such a work.
