=Our Money Wars.=
By SAMUEL LEAVITT. Cloth, $1.25: paper, 50 cents.
This is without doubt one of the most important of recent publications.
It is the most complete and comprehensive history of American finance
ever published. The book is the result of a lifetime of study and work,
and will be indispensable to all who wish to keep posted on the money
question.
Henry Carey Baird, of Philadelphia, a prominent citizen and still
running the publishing house run by his grandfather and uncle since
1785, is generally considered by reformers the most accurate and
reliable writer upon money reform in the world. He has read the work and
says: “It is a source of amazement to me how you have gotten together so
much information. It is just the book we have been wanting for
twenty-five years, and should have an immense sale.”
=The Battle of the Standards.=
By HENRY M. TELLER and JAMES H. TELLER. Large 12mo Paper, 25 cents.
(English or German.)
This is, without a doubt, _the_ book on the Silver side of the greatest
question which is now before the American people. It is a masterly
presentation, and answers systematically and effectively all the
arguments of the gold standard advocates. “The latest and the best.”
=The Condition of the American Farmer.=
Large 12mo, 64 pages, 10 cents.
In this compact and convincing work the author reviews the farmer’s
income, the depreciation of farm property, increase of tenant farmers,
decadence of home ownership, etc., and shows that owing to the
demonetization of silver and the contraction of our currency the average
farmer of the United States is compelled to live on an income below that
provided for paupers by public charity and receives less for his labor
than the State of Illinois receives for the labor of convicts.
