Stran 163 - A merchant, it has been said very properly, is not necessarily the citizen of any particular country. It is in a great measure indifferent to him from what place he carries on his trade; and a very trifling disgust will make him remove his capital, and together with it all the industry which it supports, from one country to another.
Stran 478 - Law (1960) is as follows: . . . any combination, whether temporary or permanent, the principal objects of which are under its constitution, the regulation of the relations between workmen and masters or between workmen and workmen or between masters and masters, or the imposing of restrictive conditions on the conduct of any trade or business, and also the provision of benefits to members...

Stran 170 - To carry this policy into effect must be the work of time. But whenever it may be effected, the last material bond of connexion with the colonies will have been severed ; and colonial states. acknowledging the honorary sovereignty of England. and fully armed for self-defence, — as well against herself as others, — will have grown out of the dependencies of the British Empire.
Stran 525 - ... maximum limit to the amount of benefit which can be drawn , both absolutely and in relation to the amount of contribution paid ; or, in other words, we must in some way or other secure that the number of weeks for which a workman contributes should bear some relation to his claim upon the fund. Armed with this double weapon of a maximum limit to benefit and of a minimum contribution, the operation of the scheme itself will automatically exclude the loafer.
