But that you passed, I knew;
You knew / passed.

No path shall bring,

III.

Apart from the legal and political aspect Of
these labors in perfecting the national organism.
there is also 10 be noted the resourcefu invent
iveness ready for every emcT gency which Is the
characteristic Of the American race so far as 1t
has dverged from other races. When all these
things were in progress the United States were
still almost exclusively agricultural. But the
system capable Of expansion to cover all
the needs Of what Mr.. Gar lett calls vast in
dustrial republic Everywhere the American In
the main has restricted his efforts to attainable
and practical results. II at first he had only
the frame OF a government" 1t was such
frame could be completed in detail when
time served. Mr. Garnett illustrates this adap-
liability Of American genius in his defence Of
American engineers from the criticism OF Euro
peans. The favorite charge is lack Of thorough
ness. His reply Is that American engineers
adapt themselves TO the task they have in hand.
They build Brooklyn Bridge to last for all
time and then content with a wooden tres
tie over the Platte River In Wyoming. to last
until the traffic warrants better structure. 1t
is only by keeping steadily In view the relation
between the object 10 be attained and the means
for attaining IT that the continent has been so
rapidly brought under the control Of civilized
people. The log cabin. the sod house. the cheap
railroad must precede the better and handsomer
structures Of a later time. These tentative con-
trvances have enable the native American to
make the country all his own in spite OF the
way the interst.ces have been filled up by i'm
migration. One would hardly call Mr. Garnett's
book interesting reading; but II Is a convenient
and wel-explained collection Of statistics show
ing the growth Of the country In all Its phases
from 1890 TO 1890.
