Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Australia and the Fiscal Problem To The Electors Of Australia And Tasmania. Ladies and Gentlemen, The Australian Commonwealth commenced under the brightest auspices. The agitation for union was a peaceful one, unstained by violence. The eager erection of provincial barriers was succeeded by a universal cry for their destruction. Unfettered trade between the Australian Colonists, right through and all round the Continent, became as precious in the sight of the Protectionist as it had always appeared to the advocate of commercial liberty. Not selfishness, nor fear, so much as a desire for closer ties of affection, inspired the movement. When the hour of victory came, there was an outburst of general rejoicing at the dawn of a new era of enlightenment and prosperity in the Southern Hemisphere. Two and a-half years of real life have destroyed some ideals and chilled the ardour of many patriotic minds. The first Federal Ministry had a grand opportunity, which it has completely missed. With unbounded scope for the display of those good qualities which were so much in evidence in their platform deliverances, the contrast between displays of rhetoric and sentimentalism on the "stump" and exploits in the sphere of statesmanship was never more painfully elaborated.
