Financial ruin warned in Allen Illinois speech of 1867
Hon. James C. Allen of Illinois in Bridgeport urges readers to study his August 17 1867 address. He denounces congressional usurpations and a Republican fiscal policy he says taxes labor, sustains a massive national debt of over 2.5 billion, and relies on high tariffs and bank bond schemes that enrich capital at the expense of workers.
