Money, its definition and tests : being an argument showing that money is such by decree of the government, not made to hoard, but to be used as a tool of commerce, and a sufficient volume thereof is indispensable to the progress of civilization : that gold and silver are not the "money of the world," neither indeed can be : that there are but two great financial systems-- the English and the French : the former of which, the money power is endeavoring to force upon the United States, which is one of the greatest reasons of our financial evils, that over-production by the producer and extravagance by the masses cut no figure in our troubles : that agitation is the conservator of our liberties : that beyond doubt the government has a right to make money out of paper, and should it do so, and put in circulation a sufficient volume by payment of its debts, business in all its departments will revive and prosperity return to the country / by John S. Bender.
