Answers to Queries

THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., Antioch. Who
were the Neuters, an ancient Indian tribe?
The Neuters or more properly the
Attioundirouks were an Indian tribe
which in the early days of this coun-
try dwelt on both sides of the Niagara
river between the Huron tribe on the
west and the Iroquois on the east.
The Neuters were related to both
tribes, hence the name. The Francis
can missionaries visited them in 1929
and the Jesuits visited them afterward.
The Iroquois, after conquering the
Hurons, commenced the subjugation of
the Neuters and these being much the
weaker succumbed and became a part
of the great organization known as the
Five Nations.
Comfy OF NATIONS Subscriber Richmond
What is meant by 1.-THE comfy of nations?'
The comfy of nations is the friendly
spirit which exists between nations,
and which often impels a government
to grant a favor to a foreign power
that could not be demanded as a mat
ter of right, either as coming under
the general principles of international
law, or the provisions of existing
treaties.

Such, too, is especially demanded in
a nation where the citizens RESPONSE

opinion, whence also spring just laws
and representative government.
If the individual knows not his re-

he simply goes with the tide, and has
no principles of action beyond what
