The book is a valuable contribution to our finan

cial literature.

LONDON PUBLIC OPINION, Dec. 7, 1894.

This plan

much lucidity.

Mr. Stokes sets forth with Mr. Stokes is quite right when he

asserts that the great difficulty of solving the question of the metallic basis of currency comes from inadequate study.

PITTSBURG GAZETTE, March 1, 1894.

Mr. Anson Phelps Stokes has formulated a practical plan for securing the joint circulation of gold and silver. Mr. Stokes's plan certainly has the merit of originality, and it seems to overcome the chief difficulties heretofore found in securing the joint use of the two metals.

LAWYER AND CREDITMAN, April, 1895.

The historical portions of the work are superior to anything we have seen for conciseness and exhaustive reference to the best authorities both on the gold and double-standard side of the question.

BURLINGTON HAWK-EYE, June 30, 1895.

The plan is thoroughly explained, and every student of the financial situation will find in it an inviting argument.

FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN SOCIAL SCIENCE ASSOCIATION.

WATERBURY, CONN., Aug. 1, 1895.

I bought Joint-Metallism last winter and laid it on my desk, and I have only found time to read it within the last two or three weeks. I have been interested and instructed by it.

You have contrived to get a great deal of clearly expressed thought into a moderate compass. It seems to me that your plan would introduce silver again into the money of the world without serious disturbance-especially if some time, say a year, was given after the passage of the act and before it went into operation.

Meantime silver would gradually advance to about its proper point, that is it would get the principal part of the effect of restoration.

It seems to me that you still leave gold the measure of value, and this, I think, must be done.

The effect of the plan seems to me just about equivalent to doubling the amount of gold which goes into use as money. I think you have reason to be much pleased with the success of the book.
