From me 81. Paul Daily G'oe.
With the xation OF Canada our American pithl

their own weight. Such was the case with the empire
founded by Cyrus Ale xaniers empire. and tho Roman
empire. II was found impossible in ancient times t.
permanently bind together such heterogeneous masses
But this objection not hold to-day As II dd IN
the times Of the C2sars and Alexander The railroad
