Now let US apply these tests to historical events
What was the cause Of the great En- glish crisis
Of ~? There was failure of the potato crop
in Ireland, and Of the cotton crop in America and
everybody who had been counting on potatoes
and cotton found there were none. So fewer
things were bought, and fewer things were sent
to buy them, and there was a great crisis. 1t was
the day OF settlement, Of finding out who were
the losers. So It was in go. We spent too much
on railways, and we beautifed towns on goods
that were sent to Marseilles and to other places
and that never came back or rep rodueed them
selVss. Whas happened in AmYrica? In Is43
you exported 81, 100000 in merchandise, and
what did you get back2-S20, 900, 900 IN gold.
Twenty millions Of pebbles would have done IS
well as that gold. Gold alone cannot enrich 9
nation. There is nothing that impOTerishes q
nation like gold, If the gold makes nothing. So
you Americans sent away your forty millions in
goods, and got back your twenty millions in gold
twenty millions of q perfectly useless metal
And what happened ought to teach lesson 70
those people who think nation is richer because
1t has gold. Recently great deal has been said
about the panic Of 1878, and about Jay Cooke,
and the large part be played In It. But the panic
was only the first revelation Of great mischief.
What was done on that day did not cause the
trouble. The harm had been done before Jay
Cooke and others had bought great many rail
way bonds, and had taken in return for their
capital pieces Of paper. What wonder there was
q panic? Every dollar spent on those railways
was wasted.
