Excerpt from Evolution and Empire The nucleus of the following chapters was read as a paper to the First Universal Peace Congress, held at Westminster Town Hall in 1890. Such portions of the paper as there was time to read fell on uncomprehending and obviously impatient ears. Such ideas were new and unacceptable in the Peace movement then. They had been gleaned from Herbert Spencer, John Fiske, D. G. Ritchie, Bagehot, and others. But I found that there was no room for them, and my MS. lay by for a long time as one of my failures. Of late years, however, these ideas have become part of the texture of current thought. I have lectured often upon them, and finally contributed some of these chapters as articles in the Friend, the British Friend, the Inquirer, the Christian World, T. P.'s Weekly, and elsewhere.
