Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Handbook on Gold and Silver The Silver difficulty and the universal depression of trade are but symptoms of the same economic disorder. In the British Empire the former may develop into paralysis of its Asiatic limb; the latter into disease menacing its heart, viz., a waning prosperity of British manufactures, and a deteriorating condition of the agricultural classes. The crisis requires wise and prompt treatment; but statesmen resign their duty to political economists who love abstract reasoning, and to theorise; and to brilliant journalists who excel in discussing the events of the everyday life of nations, but who have not time, opportunity, or the commonplace power of drudgery, for digging out the facts which must guide correct opinions of what the silver question means, and the universal depression of trade implies. There is yet another class, viz., bankers and merchants engaged in commerce between the East and West, who are peculiarly fitted to form a correct practical decision on the silver question; but they are content to salute it as a big subject which must be approached through a wide investigation of facts.
