This group was anxious to insert reservations making plain the right of Congress alone to declare war, defining more exactly the right of the United States to interpret the Monroe Doctrine, and specifying what was meant by domestic questions that should be exempt from the cognizance of the League.
Aryan Hypothesis and Controversy. The Races of Mankind change more slowly than their Languages. Theory of the gradual Origin of Languages. Difficulty of defining what is meant by a Language as distinct from a Dialect. Great Number of extinct and living Tongues. No European Language a Thousand Years old. Gaps between Languages, how caused. Imperfection of the Record. Changes always in Progress.
It was a formless reproach, too vague for anything like a charge, but it came nearest to defining itself in the idea that he had gone too far he who had not left his seat.
When he mitigated its harshness, however, where latitude was allowed him, Congress passed additional acts, over the veto, of course, extending and defining the powers of the commanding generals.

In defining the particular principles which have actuated the magnificent French General Staff in the present crisis, Lord Haldane has dwelt on the fact that the French have displayed throughout "that moral effect which comes from certainty of purpose and which only concentrated thought can give."
Still, the word is much abused, and the man who is a genius to some is never so to others. In defining a genius it is easiest to work by the rule of elimination and show what he is not. For instance, neither Reynolds, Landseer nor Meissonier was a genius. These men were strong, sane, well poised filled with energy and life.
The affair was taken up where the Buckingham Palace Conference left it. The terms to be arranged were terms of exclusion for Ulster; and the two questions of defining the area and the period met the negotiators on the threshold. It has been shown above that Redmond regarded as vital the distinction between temporary and permanent exclusion.
It is decreasing as a religious moment owing to, a better understanding of ethics, more accurate cosmical conceptions, the clearer defining of life, the increasing immateriality of religions. The future and final moments of religious thought. The records of the past can be studied variously.
