Notes
A champion for bimetallism blames the nation’s monetary contractions on the ″Rothschild Shylocks″ (p. 38) with responsibility for the demonetization of silver. The author slams M. Hoke Smith (President Grover Cleveland’s Secretary of the Interior), Wall Street usury and, more generally, the hook-nosed Shylocks.
