Why WAS SILVER DENoNETIzED IN THE
UNITED srATEss
36- 10 the United States everybody
bad possessed the right from the founda-
tlon Of she Government, TO take gold or
silver % the mint and have II coined for
his benefit iotosstandard coins. which
we're legal-tender for taxes. debts and
|other obligations Of every description.
81. What reason wss there for de-
|priving The people Of this right in 1873 |?
There was neither gold or silver inl
|ctrculstion IN the country st that time.
The resumption oct wss not passed I'LL .
year later. Il wss expected, however. OF
|course. that, sooner Or later, ws would
return to the metallic standard.
