Thats right. There were copies of the wireless messages he sent, and there was a cable that was received from the authorities in Switzerland the day he died. The Swiss authorities are launching an investigation. Why naturally. Connell, what are you leading for? Youre supposed to love me so fucking much, you tell some twerp I’m mentallyill? You want the truth? You’re not interested in truly loving anyone, all you want is to control people! Ill go get him, I say, and leave the apartment at once. He said he did, and looked very sad while he said it. All the matter with him was that he wanted to go along with me; didnt want to miss anything. But I couldn’t see walking into the Chief of Police’s office with Lester in tow; Wendel and Joey Free had already put me under a handicap by whatever fool stunt they’d done to get themselves chased out of town. I blamed them for that, knowing Joey Free and some of the dizzy stunts he’d pulled in the city. And I knew of Chief Kirby by reputation. He was supposed to be a damn good man and he had a tough job to hold with Reno as open as it was. Lester would have been no help. There is a real distinction, then, between definitions of names, and what are erroneously called definitions of things; but it is, that the latter, along with the meaning of a name, covertly asserts a matter of fact. This covert assertion is not a definition, but a postulate. The definition is a mere identical proposition, which gives information only about the use of language, and from which no conclusions affecting matters of fact can possibly be drawn. The accompanying postulate, on the other hand, affirms a fact, which may lead to consequences of every degree of importance. It affirms the actual or possible existence of Things possessing the combination of attributes set forth in the definition; and this, if true, may be foundation sufficient on which to build a whole fabric of scientific truth. § 3. Our third example shall be extracted from Sir John HerschelsDiscourse course on the Study of Natural Philosophy, a work replete with happily-selected exemplifications of inductive processes from almost every department of physical science, and in which alone, of all books which I have met with, the four methods of induction are distinctly recognized, though not so clearly characterized and defined, nor their correlation so fully shown, as has appeared to me desirable. The present example is described by Sir John Herschel as one of the most beautiful specimens which can be cited “of inductive experimental inquiry lying within a moderate compass; the theory of dew, first promulgated by the late Dr. Wells, and now universally adopted by scientific authorities. The passages in inverted commas are extractedverbatim from the Discourse.[139] And if a government can do much, even when it seems to have done little, in causing positive improvement, still greater are the issues dependent on it in the way of warding off evils, both internal and external, which else would stop improvement altogether. A good or a bad counselor, in a single city at a particular crisis, has affected the whole subsequent fate of the world. It is as certain as any contingent judgment respecting historical events can be, that if there had been no Themistocles there would have been no victory of Salamis; and had there not, where would have been all our civilization? How different, again, would have been the issue if Epaminondas, or Timoleon, or even Iphicrates, instead of Chares and Lysicles, had commanded at Chæroneia. As is well said in the second of two Essays on the Study of History,[286]in my judgment the soundest and most philosophical productions which the recent controversies on this subject have called forth, historical science authorizes not absolute, but only conditional predictions. General causes count for much, but individuals also produce great changes in history,and color its whole complexion long after their death.... No one can doubt that the Roman republic would have subsided into a military despotism if Julius Cæsar had never lived (thus much was rendered practically certain by general causes); “but is it at all clear that in that case Gaul would ever have formed a province of the empire? Might not Varus have lost his three legions on the banks of the Rhone? and might not that river have become the frontier instead of the Rhine? This might well have happened if Cæsar and Crassus had changed provinces; and it is surely impossible to say that in such an event the venue (as lawyers say) of European civilization might not have been changed. The Norman Conquest in the same way was as much the act of a single man, as the writing of a newspaper article; and knowing as we do the history of that man and his family, we can retrospectively predict with all but infallible certainty, that no other person (no other in that age, I presume, is meant) “could have accomplished the enterprise. If it had not been accomplished, is there any ground to suppose that either our history or our national character would have been what they are? Id dropped sixty dollars on Bill’s faro bank, and spent four hours doing it, when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I wasn’t feeling good about losing the dough, and I swung around and said: What’s the matter? Lobo, who had been moving around the room sniffing more and more excitedly with his nose to the floor, suddenly raised his paw and scratched on a door which opened from the studio. It would, however, be a mistake to expect that those great generalizations, from which the subordinate truths of the more backward sciences will probably at some future period be deduced by reasoning (as the truths of astronomy are deduced from the generalities of the Newtonian theory), will be found in all, or even in most cases, among truths now known and admitted. We may rest assured, that many of the most general laws of nature are as yet entirely unthought of; and that many others, destined hereafter to assume the same character, are known, if at all, only as laws or properties of some limited class of phenomena; just as electricity, now recognized as one of the most universal of natural agencies, was once known only as a curious property which certain substances acquired by friction, of first attracting and then repelling light bodies. If the theories of heat, cohesion, crystallization, and chemical action are destined, as there can be little doubt that they are, to become deductive, the truths which will then be regarded as theprincipia of those sciences would probably, if now announced, appear quite as novel[158] as the law of gravitation appeared to the contemporaries of Newton; possibly even more so, since Newtons law, after all, was but an extension of the law of weight—that is, of a generalization familiar from of old, and which already comprehended a not inconsiderable body of natural phenomena.The general laws of a similarly commanding character, which we still look forward to the discovery of, may not always find so much of their foundations already laid. We wont go into that now. I don’t want to meet anybody that knows me. I’m depending on you to see I don’t. Ill buy you one that fits as soon as we get to the city. I made dough enough out of the case to afford it. Rob Trenton waited for the propitious moment, then suddenly said to Dr. Dixon,All right, give me the end of the rope on the leash, then walk entirely away. A volume devoted to explaining what the writer means by civilization, does not raise so vivid a conception of it as the single expression, that Civilization is a different thing from Cultivation; the compactness of that brief designation for the contrasted quality being an equivalent for a long discussion. So, if we would impress forcibly upon the understanding and memory the distinction between the two different conceptions of a representative government, we can not more effectually do so than by saying that Delegation is not Representation. Hardly any original thoughts on mental or social subjects ever make their way among mankind, or assume their proper importance in the minds even of their inventors, until aptly-selected words or phrases have, as it were, nailed them down and held them fast..
