30956	Wherefore this silence?
30956	Who paid them and how did the tenants of these mammoth landlords live?
30956	Why did they do this?
30956	Why make the artificial division of one- half?
30956	Why this partiality?
30956	Why?
30956	Yet why slur the practices of past generations when we to- day are confronted by the same perversions?
30956	[ 93] WHERE WAS FRAUD ABSENT?
6495	But what did you do when you heard of it?
6495	Was I here last Thursday?
6495	Why not? 6495 Years have passed away,"continued the Senator,"and what has Texas got?"
6495	After having bribed legislatures to legalize his enormous issue of watered stock, what was Vanderbilt''s next move?
6495	And he went on: And while the toiler is thus engaged in creating the world''s value, how fares his own interest and well- being?
6495	And how?
6495	And the cause?
6495	And the grounds of the decision were what?
6495	And the reason for this parental sternness?
6495	And the remedy proposed in the memorial?
6495	And to whom was the business of buying, equipping and supervising them intrusted?
6495	And upon what evidence?
6495	And what became of these millions in loot?
6495	And what had the Credit Mobilier Company charged?
6495	And what was Vanderbilt''s share of the$ 44,000,000?
6495	And who were the legistators bribed?
6495	And who, it may be curiously asked, were the classes self destined or self selected to do this regenerating?
6495	As a young man what did Jay Gould see?
6495	But how was the work of destruction to be done?
6495	But how was this wealth to be obtained?
6495	But what became of the charges against Vanderbilt?
6495	But who did the work of contracting and building, and who determined what the cost was?
6495	But who specifically did the bribing?
6495	Collamer.--The Collins line was set up by special contract?
6495	Could the mechanic or farmer demand a better law?
6495	Did Roberts sell or chatter any other boats to the Government?
6495	Did it not hold out the opportunity to the poorest to get land for which payment could be gradually made?
6495	Did the Government make any move to arrest, indict and imprison Vanderbilt and his tools?
6495	Did the courts punish these men for criminal contempt?
6495	Did they foot this bill out of their own pockets?
6495	For how much?
6495	Had not Vanderbilt and other capitalists often bought up Congress and Legislatures and common councils?
6495	He controlled a sufficient number of judges; why should not they buy up the Legislature, as he had often done?
6495	His ambition was consummated; what mattered it to him that his fortune was begot in blackmail and extortion, bribery and theft?
6495	How did Vanderbilt manage to extort millions of dollars?
6495	How was this alarming exigency to be met?
6495	If the process was so marked in 1900 what must it be now?
6495	Is the coffee at all merchantable?
6495	Meanwhile, how was the great farming class faring?
6495	Since Government was actually, although not avowedly or apparently, a property regime, what was the condition of the millions of non- propertied?
6495	Since they could no longer use their ships or make profit on ocean routes why not palm off their vessels upon the Government?
6495	They had been used to stifle many another protest of the workers; why not this?
6495	To whom did the Government turn in this exigency?
6495	Verily, what of the great hosts of toilers who have done their work and shuffled off to oblivion?
6495	WHY THIS BIASED VIEW OF GOULD''S CAREER?
6495	Was ever a finer, a more glorious chance presented?
6495	Were they true or calumniatory?
6495	What did Gould''s plunder amount to?
6495	What did he do with this sum?
6495	What did the Vanderbilts and their allies now do?
6495	What had the company done with its large land grant?
6495	What if helpless people are swept off by starvation or by diseases superinduced by lack of proper food?
6495	What if they did suffer and perish?
6495	What if this property had been bought, laid out and graded by the city at considerable expense?
6495	What if$ 50,000,000 had been stolen?
6495	What was it?
6495	What was the result of all this investigation?
6495	What were the aspirations of the working class which it was to uplift?
6495	What were the consequences to this large body of the seizure by a few of the greater part of the public domain?
6495	What were their aspirations, difficulties, movements and struggles?
6495	What, however, of the workers in the mines?
6495	What, may we ask, were these men snarling, cursing and fighting over?
6495	Whence came it to this curious repository?
6495	Where lay the trouble?
6495	Where were you?"
6495	While the combination was high- handedly forcing the consumer to pay enormous prices, how was it acting toward them?
6495	Who could deny that the phalanx of capitalists scrambling forward to share in this carnival of plunder were not gifted with unerring judgment?
6495	Who did not know that he had bribed Legislature after Legislature, and had constantly resorted to conspiracy and fraud?
6495	Who would inherit his aggregation of wealth?
6495	Whom did he appoint as the supreme official in charge of railroad transportation?
6495	Why be satisfied with one portion, when the whole was within reach?
6495	Why continue to act as middlemen in transporting the coal?
6495	Why not consolidate the two roads?
6495	Why not now do the same?
6495	Why not vest in themselves the ownership of these vast areas of coal lands, and secure all the profits instead of those from merely handling the coal?
6495	Why, indeed, should they not have their gilded palaces?
6495	Why, then, should we continue to waste the public money?"
6495	Yet, it may well be asked now, even if for the first time, why has Jay Gould been plucked out as a special object of opprobrium?

26935	Do you ne''er think what wondrous beings these?
26935	Do you ne''er think who made them, and who taught The dialect they speak, where melodies Alone are the interpreters of thought?
26935	Do you not see, then, that we have almost as much control over water and its distribution as though we could increase or decrease the rainfall?
26935	Do you not think that this farmer is very much interested in the management of the forest, although he does not own a foot of it?
26935	Do you not think we are wise in seeking how to take better care of this land of ours?
26935	Does it not seem strange that where little rain falls the earth washes a great deal faster than where it rains very heavily?

26935	Is it any wonder that the egrets are nearly extinct as a result of this merciless slaughter?
26935	Is it any wonder that the herring is now decreasing in numbers?
26935	Is it not interesting to know that we plant young oysters on oyster farms, and raise oyster crops, all below the level of high tide?
26935	Is it not strange that what is good for one tree is an enemy of another?
26935	Is it true, however, that all the vast waters of the ocean are full of fish, or are they found only in certain parts?
26935	Is not the good that we do far greater than the harm?
26935	It is very easy to understand why trees can not grow where it is dry, but how shall we learn of the effect of cold upon them?
26935	May not the time come when each one of us shall be able to look at a beautiful tree and not think only of how much lumber it would make?
26935	May not the time come when we may hear the grouse drumming its call and not feel the desire to kill and eat it?
26935	Of what is this gorgeous thing made?

43211	Could you dispose of their wages, when they had received them, as you wished: did you understand that?

43211	Does that branch require great skill?

43598	Can there not be a destructive idealism as well as a social one?
43598	Can we not, then, celebrate victory with light hearts, honour our dead and glorify our arms?
43598	Can we safely give these instinctive pugnacities full play?
43598	Could the War have been prevented?
43598	Did the German ask of the Alsatian or the Pole worse than we have been compelled to ask of our own soldiers in Russia, India, or Ireland?
43598	Did the policy suggest that we should simply yield to German political pretensions?
43598	Did we honestly think that Russia had proved herself more liberal in the treatment of the Poles than Austria, whose Government we were destroying?
43598	Do we add to the''force''of the Alliance by increasing the military power of Serbia, if that fact provokes her to challenge Italy?
43598	Do we realise all that this means?
43598	Does any one really believe that Western Society could remain stable, resting on moral foundations of this kind?
43598	Does the American plead that the circumstances which warp an Englishman''s or Frenchman''s judgment could never warp an American''s?
43598	Either they were born dead, or if they were born alive-- what was there to give them?
43598	Get even by knocking over a few guys, see?''
43598	Has it any direct relation to certain moral tendencies that have succeeded it?
43598	Has its total outcome affected certain values of the fundamental kind just indicated?
43598	He said further:--''How was this Empire of Britain founded?
43598	How can the earth, which is limited, find food for an increase of population which is unlimited?
43598	How can they be corrected?
43598	How can they be corrected?
43598	How could a State, say Britain, act on behalf of an economic entity such as that just indicated?
43598	How far has our victory achieved that object?
43598	How have they arisen?
43598	How have they arisen?
43598	How in practical politics are we to say when a group has become preponderantly powerful?
43598	How is it that we are not horrified and do not resolve that not for a single day shall any preventable evil exist?
43598	How is it, that, on the contrary, for two years we have been cheerfully engaged in intensifying the sum of human suffering?
43598	How is the situation to develop?
43598	How shall she turn that fact to account?
43598	I repeat, How do you know he will get down?
43598	If he had supposed those powerful ideas were making_ not_ for war, but for peace, why as a pacifist should he be at such pains to change them?
43598	If not, what do we propose that Germany shall give?
43598	If so, whose?
43598	If the psychology of Nationalism renders so simple a problem insoluble, what will be its effect upon the problem of Europe as a whole?
43598	If the resultant hostilities can operate as between two national groups like the British and the American, what groups can be free of them?
43598	Indeed, has not the experience of the War discredited much of the theory of the interdependence of nations?
43598	Into Russia?
43598	Into which danger have we run as a matter of simple fact?
43598	Is America alone in this change of feeling about the small State?
43598	Is it not indeed what one of their writers had called a''holy hate,''instinctive, intuitive, purged of all calculation of advantage or disadvantage?
43598	Is it physical force which prevents it?
43598	Is it that they never were our real aims at all, or that war has wrought a change in our nature with reference to them?
43598	Is the policy which our power supported before the War-- and still supports-- compatible with it?
43598	Is the political struggle for territory a struggle for bread?
43598	Is this collection of mushroom republics to possess a stability to which the Entente could not attain?
43598	Milk?
43598	More force-- more revolvers and bowie knives?
43598	Now let us see what this writer has to say as to the German power to- day?
43598	Or if not these, what others?
43598	Or shall we go forward to a recognised international economic system, in which the small States will have their rights secured by a definite code?
43598	Or that he could never find himself in similar circumstances?
43598	Ought any nation to have such a right?
43598	Paper marks increased in quantity until they reach just the value of the paper they are printed on?
43598	Put this question to yourself, patriot Englishmen:"Was the sinking of the_ Lusitania_ as cruel, as prolonged, as mean, as merciless a death as this?"
43598	Shall we not have destroyed this Prussian philosophy of frightfulness, force, and hate?
43598	Shall we not have proved to the world that a State without military power can trust to the good faith and humanity of its neighbours?
43598	Shall we suggest to Germany that she must deal with this problem as the thrifty householder deals with the too frequent progeny of the family cat?
43598	Sheer original sin, apart from political or economic circumstance?
43598	Should we get even eighty per cent, of the pre- war output or anything like it?
43598	Should we have thought his position any more logical if he had explained that he was opposed to slavery because he did not want to become a slave?
43598	Should we make a naval alliance, with Great Britain, or form a new League of Nations, or denounce Article X, or...?"
43598	Starve?
43598	Starve?
43598	Suppose, then, we put the question''Can German Foreign Trade be increased?''
43598	The Inherent Superiority of the Anglo- Saxon Stock?
43598	Then why is she bankrupt?
43598	To deny the existence of the German or other aggressiveness?
43598	To what do the facts as a whole really point?''
43598	Was it necessary thus to''organise''hate for the purposes of war?
43598	Was this the instrument for the conquest of half a world?
43598	We shall get nearer to the heart of our problem if, instead of asking perpetually''_ Who_ caused the War?''
43598	Well, suppose it did?
43598	Well, will the reader note that_ the above does not refer to Germany at all, but to Russia_?
43598	Were we not as a matter of fact fighting-- and dying-- for something else?
43598	What are the facts supporting the foregoing proposition?
43598	What are the motives which each State thus fears its neighbours may obey?
43598	What are the post- war facts in this connection?
43598	What are they to do?
43598	What are they to do?
43598	What are we going to do about it?
43598	What degree of sovereignty will you surrender as your contribution to a new order?
43598	What do we propose to Germany, now that we have beaten her, as the means of dealing with those million babies?
43598	What do we see to- day in Europe?
43598	What has been its effect upon social impulses?
43598	What is a market?
43598	What is a writer to do, however, in the face of persistent misrepresentation such as this?
43598	What is a''Balance?''
43598	What is likely to be her view of the general situation in Europe at the present moment?...
43598	What is the first need in restoring order?
43598	What is their nature?
43598	What is then to happen?
43598	What is wrong?
43598	What is your plan?
43598	What made her more aggressive than other nations, than those who later became our Allies-- Russia, Rumania, Italy, Japan, France?
43598	What of all fanatics ready to die for their idealism?
43598	What of the Holy Wars?
43598	What of the Prussian who, after all, had his ideal, as the Bolshevist has his?
43598	What ought we to do?
43598	What picture is summoned to our minds by the word''economics''in relation to war?
43598	What purpose?
43598	What results?
43598	What should we have thought of a Southerner of the old Slave States fulminating against the crime of slavery?
43598	What then is the reason why these millions starve in the midst of potential plenty?
43598	What then?
43598	What type of nature can develop in such conditions?
43598	What was that policy?
43598	What was the explanation?
43598	What was the political belief and the attitude towards life which_ The Great Illusion_ challenged?
43598	What will you pay for it, in terms of national sovereignty?
43598	What, in fact,_ is_ the price that is asked of us?
43598	What, outlined as briefly as possible, was its central argument?
43598	When the''high- brows''are all at sixes and sevens, what is a man to think?
43598	Where has the War, and the complex of desires it developed, left our moral values?
43598	Where is the economic advantage of the military method?
43598	Which of these trades does Paris think she is going to develop on a hitherto unprecedented scale?
43598	Which tendency is it that is acting as the present disruptive force in Europe?
43598	Who is to use the force if no one man can agree with the other?
43598	Why are we Balkanised rather than Federalised?
43598	Why are we so callous?
43598	Why are we so heedless?
43598	Why do Balkan and other border States fight fiercely over this coalfield or that harbour?
43598	Why does America now wash her hands of the whole muddle in Europe?
43598	Why does France keep three- fourths of a Continent still in ferment, making reparations more and more remote"?
43598	Why does France still oppose trade with Russia, and plot for the control of an enlarged Poland or a reactionary Hungary?
43598	Why is this?
43598	Why should the desire of one people to rule itself, to be free, be thwarted by another making exactly the same demands?
43598	Why should we expect that the result should be greatly different upon American opinion?
43598	Why was none taken?
43598	Why was that policy not carried out?
43598	Why?
43598	Why?
43598	Will he not have made Peace-- permanent Peace?
43598	Would her need for expansion become less?
43598	Would successful war by us remove the economic and political causes which were part at least of the explanation of German aggression?
43598	Would that co- operation, giving security to others, demand the sacrifice of the interest or welfare of their own people?
43598	Would we keep out of the War if Germany refrained from crossing the Belgian frontier?
43598	You think that a foolish and fantastic question?
43598	[ 80] Is it necessary to say that the present writer does not accept it?
43598	_ From Balance to Community of Power_ Does the foregoing imply that force or compulsion has no place in human society?
18032	Build a navy?
18032	But why not let them come out here and work and go back?
18032	Can he write?
18032	Canada should have her own shipyards?
18032	Do you want it?
18032	Does this man understand for what he is voting?
18032	Have not the English carried vices to India?
18032	How about Imperial Federation?
18032	How can Canadians be loyal to a system of government that acknowledges some fat king sitting on a throne chair like a mummy as ruler?
18032	How much can a good Indian hunter make in a season?
18032	How much fur comes yearly to Edmonton?
18032	See any coal?
18032	The last chapter of the fur trade has been written?
18032	Then what becomes of your co- eds and woman movement?
18032	What are those hopes?
18032	What''s Newfoundland to us?
18032	Who''d''a''thought of takin''any offense from touchin''up this blamed dead town?
18032	Why are you loyal?
18032	Why do I think so many young Englishmen fail to make good settlers?
18032	Why do you think so many young Englishmen fail to make good in Canada?
18032	Why should a Sikh not marry a white woman?
18032	Why should we pay for railroads?
18032	Why,asked the Conservatives,"should we support the Laurier policy of building a tin- pot navy?"
18032	Why?
18032	Why_ should_ we want Imperial Federation?
18032	Would they cut his throat?
18032	Again-- why not?
18032	Americans say of opportunity--"How much can we make of it?"
18032	And Japan asks-- why not?
18032	And again Japan asks-- why not?
18032	And if Panama does divert traffic from land to water, wo n''t that divert a share of shipping away from Montreal and St. John and Halifax?
18032	And if it has, wo n''t it be to hurt our railroads?
18032	And if it were to the advantage of a hostile power to cripple Canada, could she be conquered?
18032	And"the last chapter of the fur romance has been written"?
18032	Anything like it?
18032	Are they a stench to Heaven as the Hindu''s?
18032	Are we not sprung from the same Aryan stock?
18032	Besides, the minute Canada voluntarily enters a European war, does she forfeit American"protection"under that Monroe Doctrine?
18032	But can it be said that the institution of child marriage is an unknown or even a rare crime in India?
18032	But is n''t all this stretching one''s fancy a bit too far in the future?
18032	But the point is-- why was it these million and a half Canadians found better opportunities in the United States than in Canada?
18032	But where to?
18032	CHAPTER IX THE HINDU I Is it, then, that Canada fears the growth of Japan as a great world power?
18032	Can Canada as a foster mother redeem such as these?
18032	Can Canada keep a fair field and no favors?
18032	Can one conceive for one minute of the Imperial government refusing to amend the British North American Act?
18032	Can you see the white men''s eyes pop out of their heads with astonishment?
18032	Canada is saying, with a little note of belligerency in her voice-- What''s Panama to us?
18032	Canada was a federation, but a federation of what?
18032	Canadians do not ask--"_Who_ are you?"
18032	Canadians say--"How little can we pay for it?"
18032	Could Hindus who landed in British Columbia destitute a few years ago possibly have that amount of money among them?
18032	Crops were abundant, but where could they be sold?
18032	Do the Canadian teachers receive the same recognition?
18032	Do you appreciate the amazing optimistic confidence of this bankrupt argonaut?
18032	Do you know your rail traffic has jumped from 36,000,000 tons in 1900 to 90,000,000 tons in 1912?
18032	Do you know-- they asked-- that you have five times more traffic-- seventy- two million tons-- going through your canals than is expected for Panama?
18032	Do you realize-- they asked-- that your three grain provinces alone are three times the area of the German Empire?
18032	Do you think he was to be pitied?
18032	Does Canada desire the system of the child wife embodied in her national life?
18032	Does Canada want such a shadow?
18032	Does Canada want that system embodied in her national life?
18032	Does any other factor enter deeply in Canadians''every- day living?
18032	Does he believe that each man should stand upon his own feet or lean upon a state crutch?
18032	Does it sound very much to you like a region where the settler would ultimately drive out the fur trade?
18032	Does not England colonize; does not Germany colonize; does not France colonize?
18032	Does the habit react on public life?
18032	For what else have a million and a half British born come to the free homesteads of Canada?
18032	Forward whither-- do you ask of Canada?
18032	Had n''t Canada, a country of seven million population, a railroad system of 29,000 miles?
18032	Had n''t the Dominion spent$ 138,000,000 on canals heading traffic to the St. Lawrence?
18032	Had n''t they been telling themselves so since confederation, when they pledged the credit of Canada to build a transcontinental?
18032	Had the Old Book some deep economic reason when it warned the children of Israel against mixing their blood with aliens?
18032	Had the province exceeded its rights?
18032	Has Canada a foundation beneath her high hopes?
18032	Has Canada found herself?
18032	Has flunkeyism any part in the pro- loyalty of Canada?
18032	Has her progress since 1890 kept pace with the United States?
18032	Has it all anything to do with the centuries''cesspools of unbridled vice?
18032	Have they no claim?
18032	Have we dug down to the fountain spring of Canadian loyalty?
18032	How about Canada?
18032	How about a merchant marine for Canada?
18032	How about the Chinese vices?
18032	How are you to know they are child wives and not daughters?
18032	How can Panama turn the Pacific Coast into a front door instead of a back door?
18032	How can we expect good morals among three to five thousand men who are forcibly separated from wives and children?
18032	How could this be brought about?
18032	How does all this bear on Canada?
18032	How does he do this?
18032	How does the Canadian live in his home?
18032	How far is_ too_ far?
18032	How has Canada escaped so much of this fungus excrescence of representative government?
18032	How is it that a people with such a genius for success in foreign trade have been so dilatory in their work of nation- building?
18032	How long is navigation open on the Bay?
18032	How would Canada abolish the child wife system if Hindu votes outnumbered Canadian votes?
18032	How?
18032	I asked,"Have those little sticks drifted down fifteen hundred miles to this lagoon of dead water?"
18032	II And now, what is Canada doing?
18032	II What are the facts?
18032	II What, then, is the tie that binds colony to Mother Country?
18032	III The question may be asked, do not these large figures presage the hunting to extinction of fur- bearing animals?
18032	III What part does religion play in Canada?
18032	IV The question is-- will Canada remain Canada when these new races come up to power?
18032	IV What of the road itself?
18032	If Americans have entered so powerfully into Canadian industrial life, why was reciprocity rejected?
18032	If Newfoundland is absolutely essential to a Greater Britain Overseas, why is she not part of Canada?
18032	If Panama works this great reduction, this revolution, in freights, will that not hurt the railroads?
18032	If Suez were cut off and Canada were cut off, where would England look for her food supply?
18032	If forgery did not matter, why should perjury?
18032	If it is good for the Canadian producer to buy in the cheapest market and to sell in the highest, why was reciprocity rejected?
18032	If it is n''t the labor unions and it is n''t the fear of new national power that prejudice against the Oriental-- what is it?
18032	If there is a grain blockade now, what will there be when you cultivate 100,000,000 acres?
18032	If two currents meet and do not blend, what?
18032	In a word, has the Canadian found himself?
18032	Is he beer- drinking, lethargic, dreamy and flabby in will power; or is he whisky- drinking, fiery, practical and pugnacious?
18032	Is it a matter of money, at all; or of appreciative intelligence?
18032	Is it a menace or a portent?
18032	Is it a shadow, or a substance?
18032	Is it any wonder, when the fourth time came and Canada was offered reciprocity that she voted it down?
18032	Is it common sense to think the population of a few thousands can hunt out a fur empire here the size of two Germanies?
18032	Is it more than skin deep?
18032	Is it more than white teeth and pigments of the skin?
18032	Is the Canadian a Socialist, or an Individualist?
18032	It does n''t sound as if such regions would ever be overrun by settlement-- does it?
18032	It''s what the system of government stands for, that rouses support-- not this, that, or the other man--""But what does it stand for?"
18032	No matter what the cost, can Canada afford to lose them from her young nationals?
18032	Now, then, where does Panama come into this story?
18032	On the east for three thousand miles washes the Atlantic, on the west for five thousand miles the Pacific-- what has Canada to fear?
18032	She has the John Bull trick of drawing herself up to every new proposal with an air of"What is that to us?"
18032	Should Suez ever cut off the path to India and Australia, what colony could feed England but Canada?
18032	So why should Canada become excited over national defense?
18032	Sounds hard; does n''t it, in the face of almost universal nostrums for the salvation and propagation of the useless?
18032	The Canadian may say this theoretically, but is he strengthened in body and made greater in soul by the mystic splendors of his country?
18032	The Hindus are adapted to the cultivation of the soil, but if they come in millions, will any white race sit down beside them?
18032	The poll tax was put on every Chinaman coming into Canada, but do you think John Chinaman pays it?
18032	The question is sometimes asked by Americans: Why does Canada concern herself about foreign problems and dangers?
18032	The same of the British Columbia shingle industry, of copper ores, of wheat and flour products?
18032	The_ why_ and_ how_ of confederation is easy to understand, but what tie binds Canada to the Mother Country?
18032	Then, what part does religion play?
18032	They had heard of McKinley and of Mark Hanna, but who and what were Cobden and Bright?
18032	To be sure, if you ask a fur- trader,"How are furs?"
18032	To what end?
18032	To- day, what?
18032	Uncle Sam has been Canada''s big brother, but what if when the danger came, his arms were tied in a conflict of his own?
18032	V Well-- what is Canada going to do about it?
18032	V What is the future portent of the great migration of Englishmen of the best blood and traditions to Canada?
18032	Was Canada''s progress as swift after 1867 as it ought to have been?
18032	Was he right?
18032	Was it Destiny or Providence?
18032	Was it not more natural to trade with neighbors a handshake across the way than with strange nations across the ocean?
18032	We talk mistily of Cause and Effect, but who drops the Cause that turns the Wheel?
18032	We talk of Canada''s boom as"done,"but has it even begun?
18032	What additional fortifications or defenses has Canada to be so cocksure that history can never repeat itself?

18032	What if some one tears up"the scrap of paper"?
18032	What if something happened to bring as many to the Pacific, as well as those now coming to the Atlantic?
18032	What if such a tide of German immigration came to Canada?
18032	What if the railroads did not carry the crop two thousand four hundred miles to seaboard in order to ship forward to Liverpool?
18032	What if they carried some of the big crops only six hundred miles west to sea- board on the Pacific?
18032	What is it?
18032	What is the rock bottom spring?
18032	What is the tie that binds?
18032	What kind of a lesson?
18032	What manner of being is the Canadian woman, his partner?
18032	What manner of man is the Canadian behind all these figures attesting material prosperity?
18032	What matter wars and rumors of wars to these habitants living under guidance of the curà ©, as their ancestors lived two hundred years ago?
18032	What of the traffic carried?
18032	What pull is beneath the tide of four hundred thousand homeseekers a year?
18032	What relation were Cobden and Bright to the G. O. P.?

18032	What''s Panama to us?
18032	What, then, is meant by the phrase"Americanizing of Canada"?

18032	When the Orient fully awakens, will Pacific commerce total four billions a year?
18032	When these two currents meet, what?
18032	Where?
18032	Who is to enforce laws, when neither government wants to father them?
18032	Why are both these roads also stationing big repair plants at inland points, one at Calgary, the other supposed to be for Kamloops?
18032	Why are quiet rural beauty and illimitable freedom and lofty splendor not reflected in poem and novel and ballad and picture?
18032	Why are the Hindus not received as friends in Canada?
