But when the terms of the stipulation import a contract, when either of the parties engages to perform a particular act, the treaty addresses itself to the political, not the judicial department; and the legislature must execute the contract before it can become...
Side 5 - The period of exclusiveness is past. The expansion of our trade and commerce is the pressing problem. Commercial wars are unprofitable. A policy of good will and friendly trade relations will prevent reprisals. Reciprocity treaties are in harmony with the spirit of the times; measures of retaliation are not.

As a matter of fact, sulphate of iron in saturated solution does not destroy the vitality of disease germs or the infecting power of material containing them. This salt is, nevertheless, a very valuable antiseptic, and its low price makes it one of the...
Side 36 - The master, for example, would be liable to the servant for the negligence of the chambermaid, for putting him in a damp bed : for that of the upholsterer, for sending in a crazy bedstead, whereby he was made to fall down while asleep and injure himself; for the negligence of the cook, in not properly cleaning the copper vessels used in the kitchen ; of the butcher, in supplying the family with meat of a quality injurious to the health; of the builder, for a defect in the foundation of the house,...
Side 131 - ... a board of assessors shall be appointed to ascertain and determine what claims are valid, and what amount or amounts shall be paid by Great Britain to the United States on account of the liability arising from such failure, as to each vessel, according to the extent of such liability as decided by the Arbitrators.
Side 92 - Senators present concur," the House of Representatives do not claim any agency In making treaties; but that when a treaty stipulates regulations on any of the subjects submitted by the Constitution to the power of Congress, It must depend for its execution, as to such stipulations, on a law or laws to be passed by Congress...

In the latter case there is a failure to disinfect.
