Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some American Opinions on the Indian Empire In India we encounter the most colossal example history affords of the successful administration by men of European blood of a thickly populated region in another continent. It is the greatest feat of the kind that has been performed Since the break up of the Roman Empire. Indeed, it is a greater feat than was performed under the Roman Empire. Unquestion ably mistakes have been made; it would indicate qualities literally superhuman if SO gigantic a, task had been accomplished without mistakes. It is easy enough to point out shortcomings, but the fact remains that the successful administration Of the Indian Empire by the English has been one Of the most notable and the most admirable achievements of the white race during the past two centuries. On the whole it has been for the immeasurable benefit of the nations of India themselves. Suffering has been caused in particular cases and at particular times to these natives much more Often, I believe, by well-intentioned ignorance or bad judg ment than by any moral obliquity. But on the whole there has been a far more resolute effort to secure fair treatment for the humble and the Oppressed during the days of English rule in India than during any other period of recorded India history. England does not draw a penny from India for English purposes; She Spends for India the revenues raised in India, and they are spent for the benefit of the Indians them selves. Undoubtedly India is a less pleasant place than formerly for the heads of tyrannical states. There is now little or no room in it for successful freebooter chieftains, for the despots who lived in gorgeous Splendour while under their cruel rule the immense mass of their countrymen festered in sodden misery. But the mass of the people has been and are far better Off than ever before, and far better Off than they would now be if English control were overthrown or withdrawn. Indeed, if English control were now withdrawn from India, the whole Peninsula would become a chaos Of bloodshed and violence.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colonization, Defence, and Railways in Our Indian Empire In all this which has been done for India in a century, it will strike the dispassionate observer to see how little has been done for England, beyond endowing her with the political possession of the country. That possession brings no virtual acces sion to the imperial revenue: it affords to a few individual citizens some noble prizes of ambition; it affords employment to a limited number of civilians and officers; but it feeds our wealth only through its commercial development, as the United States and South America do. For the bulk of the population, for the extension of the English name and race, the empire of India has done nothing; while the wastes of Canada, Australia, and South Africa have been filled with our people, a few hundreds of our citizens alone represent us in the rich up-country of the presidencies. In the presidential cities alone have we any considerable English population, and even there we have not taken permanent root, for the Eurasian population is inconsiderable.

Book Synopsis The New America and the Far East (Classic Reprint) by : George Waldo Browne
Download or read book The New America and the Far East (Classic Reprint) written by George Waldo Browne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New America and the Far East The picturesqueness of the country, many of the incidents of its remarkable history, and some of the great Indian personalities are set forth in this book. It shows the variety and the complexity of Indian conditions and Indian life. The Indians are well known to be blood brethren to the people of western Europe, as is shown by the kinship between Sanskrit and Greek, Latin and even modern European tongues. This volume does not aim to show the likeness between the east and west, the similarities of human nature in both continents, but rather to call attention to the divergencies. The author squarely faces the discontent of that part of India which can express its opinion of the rule of the foreigner. In effect, the loud and increasing voices of protest in India insist that the land would rather govern itself ill than be well governed by the Feringhee. And ill governed the land will be, if ever the English lose their hold. For, besides the old rivalries of north and south, of hill and plain, is the unceasing bitter feeling between the Hindu and the Moslem, who live in many parts of India side by side. For all these problems, this book is helpful for its account of the actual conditions of India, of the spirit of the people who may perhaps some day try their own skill at empire building.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Awakening of India During a recent extensive tour of India in pursuit of my duties as an American newspaperman, I was accorded a large number of interviews by eminent authorities, on important subjects relating to the In dian Empire. At that time it had not occurred to me to make use of these statements in any other way than originally intended, namely, to tell the people of the United States through the press something of present conditions in India. Upon my return to Eng land, however, it was urged upon me that these inter views should be collected into book form, especially in View of the great change wrought in India by the war. Accordingly I have prepared this volume, selecting such interviews as appear best to show the general situation, and adding to them certain facts collected during my visit. Controversial subjects necessarily have been dealt with, but I wish to state emphatically that the book is intended in no way as a criticism of the Government of India or of the Princes and people of the Indian Empire.

This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial Art Manufactures of the Indian Empire During the few years we have been established our main object has been to remedy past errors, and much has already been done for the general improvement in the art work of the Indian Empire. From the beginning we have kept strictly to the original shapes, which best adapted the articles for their. Various purposes, rej ecting everything of inferior workmanship and finish. The wants of Euro pean and American buyers have also been studied, and articles are now being manufactured in the forms best adapted for Western use in furnishing and ornamenting houses, which wares were never pro duced by the Indian artisan. This can be seen by inspecting our 1arge and varied collection of art wares from all parts of India, ex hibited at the World's Fair. We have made a new departure from the hitherto usual plan of exhibiting' articles of interest to the hunt ers for curiosities alone, the goods placed on public View by us being calculated to increase their importation into America. The good work that we have done in India toward the revival of Indian art manufactures has been recognized by the Supreme Government of the Empire in selecting our firm to represent the art works'of the country at the World's Fair at Chicago. During the few brief intervals in work since undertaking the re presentation of a vast Empire, in the section of art manufactures at the great Exposition, the following few notes upon the art works of India have been compiled. This work must necessarily fall short of a treatise on the whole subject which would occupy so much longer time and fill a large volume.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Wars of the United States Blome, Adair, and Boudinot, have thought them the descendants of the ten tribes of Israel; others have imagined them the offspring of the Canaanites expelled by Joshua; Grotius, adopting the opinion of Martyr, the companion of Columbus, believed part at least of America to have been peopled by Ethiopians and Christians; and the late ingenious De Witt Clinton, go vernor of the state of New York, maintained that the American Indians are of Tartar origin; and that, in ages past, they overcame and exterminated a prior race of inhabitants, who had made greater progress in civilization than themselves. But, whatever may be the difficulty of accounting for the ancient fortifications to which this learned writer refers, his Opinion seems to rest on no solid foundation; for there is no appearance that, before their intercourse with the Europeans, the Indians had-ever seen a people who had attained any considerable degree of improvement.

The nations of colonial times, and the high contracting parties whom the Republic met as apparent equals during its first ninety years, have come down to) draw rations under the to be blanketed and continental tramps. In the last analysis of the Indian, in Congress and on the border, he is discovered to be simply a man, and more or less like all Americans; and the recent and so far final proposition is to treat him as an American. In coming to this we have had a tedious, annoying, nugatory, and mortifying series of theories, experiments, and makeshifts. Meanwhile, there has been an apparent decline in their numbers, from the highest official maximum, of about in 1872, to in 1885.
