Grant era debate over Mullett and silver value

The piece criticizes civil service reform and the use of silver as currency, arguing Grant’s restoration of architect Mullett is a meaningful service while silver coinage fails as real money. It contends legal tender with depreciated silver payments harms value, equating specie to twelve to twenty percent under value.
