Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Freak in Finance The writer of this small and unambitious book is spurred to the undertaking by a conviction that something of the kind is an urgent need of the hour. It is his belief that a great percentage of American voters has been so occupied by immediate business interests, and by other pressing questions of a political nature, that the deep-lying principles Of governmental finance have not received the degree of careful thought and close study which their vital importance merits. The result is, that the present agitation of the question of our national mone tary system finds the people unprepared to meet the issue with their customary shrewd judgment and intelligence. This fact has been taken advantage of by certain persons with political or other personal ends in view, as a favorable opportunity to create and stimulate a set of ideas far away from the truth. A large number of people feeling that something must be at fault somewhere, to have produced the existing wide spread commercial and industrial depression have seized upon the ingenious untruths which have thus been pre sented to them, and seem to have formed a distrust Of the entire financial policy of the Government; in fact they have been swept off their feet by the vociferously reiterated statement that there is but one medicine that can cure the malady, namely: free and unlimited coinage of silver.
