But in the present distressed circumstances of Ireland, it is manifest that it is only by the removal of entire families that any sensible relief would be experienced from the pressure of a redundant population. Provision would have, therefore, to be made, not only for the transport of the families to their place of settlement, but also for their maintenance until a crop can be had from the...

Side 176 - The settler can also secure the pre-emption of 160 acres adjoining at the current price and usual conditions.

Side 320 - I wish to dissipate, if I can, the idle dreams of those who are always telling you that the strength of England depends, sometimes they say upon its prestige, sometimes they say upon its extending its Empire, or upon what it possesses beyond these shores. Rely upon it the strength of Great Britain and Ireland is within the United Kingdom.
Side 330 - ... Tyler Brooke. I live in San Lorenzo. As to my occupation, I would like to say this : As a third-generation American-born citizen, I wish to state emphatically and unequivocally that the entire fabric of my life has been bound inextricably and dedicated to this country's democratic heritage, and that I shall continue in the future as I have done in the past, to urge the extension of its democratic privileges to all citizens, regardless of color or creed. I believe that I have been subpenaed to...
Side 234 - Ordinary General Meeting, which were confirmed, and announced that since the last meeting 24 Fellows have been elected, viz., 8 resident and 21 non-resident.
Side 92 - Government selling price, and the remaining onehalf is to be sold at prices varying from 45. to £i per acre to reimburse the cost of the Canadian Pacific Railway. When it is remembered that the district thus being opened up exceeds in area 250,000,000 of acres, it will be seen that the free grant lands alone are nearly twice as extensive as the whole of England.
