The Trial of the Rhode Island Judges: An Episode Touching Currency and Constitutional Law (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Trial of the Rhode Island Judges: An Episode Touching Currency and Constitutional Law

The army was unpaid and discontented, and when it returned home it was only to find a population dejected and cast down by burdensome taxes with no means to pay them. In this time of general want and discontent, political quackery as usual came to the front, and hinted for a remedy, like the Anarchists of our time, in a division of property and a defiance of economic principle.
