Excerpt from Annual Report of the Secretary of Internal Affairs of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, 1898, Vol. 26: Part III, Industrial StatisticsA saving, thrifty household is an economic household, a saving, thrifty nation is an economic nation. The widening scope of economy reaches beyond its domestic family environment, includes the state, and finds comprehensive expression through the qualifying word political. Between political economy and sociology there is close relationship, and with them both democracy has established a sub stantial intimacy. The mission of democracv is to break down caste, strengthen the family unit, enlarge the opportunity of the individual. Caste, primarily of oriental significance, has occidental application, where hereditary preferment is the distinctive social feature. It stands for the dangerous aristocracy that the unduly alarmed patriot feared that those equally earnest in patriotism but of alleged aristocratic tendencies and formidable in the wisdom of state craft had purposed to visit upon the Republic in the formative period of its existence.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
