Excerpt from The Folly and Cost of Speech of Hon. S. S. Cox, of New York, in the House of Representatives, May 16, 1874By the platforms of all parties, we are reformers in matters of economy. All reforms at this time gladden the people. Every effort for economy calls forth their gratitude. Much commendation fol lows those who practice the saving spirit. Not a sigh would os cape if half our ministers abroad, with their inordinate salaries and platitudinous dispatches, were abolished.When one's household expenses overrun the income, is it not wise to stop gratuities to our relations outside of the household? Surely, we must be just before we are generous. Especially should we be just when there is little consideration received for the generosity.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
