The latter would of necessity meetntthe Iederal capital and during the session oi Parliament. where the members oithe Committee would have other duties and. matters of various kinds to distract their attention. and where the representatives of the wealthy Companies could much more uadlly at; bend than could the multitude of Indivi- Dittcttnt and ,k .
