*In Preparation for Early Issue*
*DEMOCRACY AND SOCIAL ETHICS*
By JANE ADDAMS, Head of "Hull House," Chicago; joint author of
"Philanthropy and Social Progress." (_Now ready._)
Miss Addams' Settlement Work is known to all who are interested in
social amelioration and municipal conditions. As the title of her book
shows, it will be occupied with the reciprocal relations of ethical
progress and the growth of democratic thought, sentiment, and
institutions.
*CUSTOM AND COMPETITION*
By RICHARD T. ELY, LL.D., Professor of Political Economy and
Director of the School of Economics and Political Science in the

University of Wisconsin; President of the American Economic
Association; author of "Monopolies and Trusts," etc.
Topics treated under Custom include the Rent of Land and Custom;
Interest and Custom; The Remuneration of Personal Services and
Custom; Custom and Commerce.
Competition is first discussed with reference to the biological aspects
of the question, and the significance of subhuman competition is
confined and a careful classification of its various kinds is presented.
One of the main topics of the book is Competition as a Principle of
Distribution, and its treatment of the subject of price admirably
supplements the theoretical discussion in "Monopolies and Trusts."
*AMERICAN MUNICIPAL PROGRESS*
By CHARLES ZUEBLIN, B.D., Associate Professor of Sociology in
the University of Chicago.
This work takes up the problem of the so-called public utilities, public
schools, libraries, children's playgrounds, public baths, public
gymnasiums, etc. The discussion is from the standpoint of public
welfare and is based on repeated personal investigations in leading
cities of Europe, especially England and the United States.
*COLONIAL GOVERNMENT*
By PAUL S. REINSCH, Ph.D., LL.B., Professor of Political Science in
the University of Wisconsin; Author of "World Politics at the End of
the Nineteenth Century as Influenced by the Oriental Situation."
By the author of the "World Politics," which met so cordial a reception
from students of modern political history. The main divisions of the
book are: Motives and Methods of Colonization; Forms of Colonial
Government; Relations between the Mother Country and the Colonies;
Internal Government of the Colonies; The Special Colonial Problems
of the United States.
