Excerpt: Just as "the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing", so the modern world is not content with its present power. The more coal it finds, the more it burns; and the more oil it drills, the more it wants. There seems no end to its capacity for consumption. Machines beget more machines, and these live on coal and oil. In the United States alone 15,000,000 automobiles are forever stopping at filling stations to drink up gallons of gas, and a million tons of coal go up in smoke each day.

Utilizing Sun Power; The Independent, devoted to the Consideration of Politics...(1848-1921), New York: Feb 2, 1914. Vol. 77., Iss. 3400; p. 168 (1 page)

Excerpt: ALL power comes ultimately from the sun; it is merely a question whether we shall use up the petrified energy of coal and oil or catch the sun rays as they come.

Excerpt: Sufferings of the Christian Population.--Several provinces, in which the provincial authorities do not execute the reformatory measures of the government, remain the scene of great outrages against the Christian population.

Excerpt: THERE are people (we ourselves are such) who realize that our Government is very bad, and who struggle against it. From before the days of Radistcheff (1802) and the Decembrists (1825), there have been two ways of carrying on the struggle; one way is that of the insurrectionists, of Stenka Razin, Pougatcheff, the Decembrists, the Revolutionary party of the sixties, the Terrorists of the 1st March, 1881 (when Alexander II was assassinated), and others.
