Two Books on National Topics

Capital and Labor

Valuable facts regarding the enormous accumulation of wealth by financial interests, the unprecedented resources of our government and the banking interests of this country, and other indications of national, institutional, and personal prosperity occupy the first pages of the book.
The subject of trusts is treated in a lengthy chapter in which is collected much valuable information. The unsuccessful attempt of the government to unseat the various trusts from their thrones, the reversal of the decisions of lower courts unfavorable to the trusts, the liberal application of laws in favor of the trusts,— these are some of the facts brought to the attention of the reader and recorded in convenient form for reference.
Leaving the financial side of the question, the author considers the labor question in chapters entitled “Unions,” “Strikes,” and “Boycotts,” in a manner which is both fascinating and educational.
The book contains 208 pages, 51 illustrations, besides tables and diagrams. Price, 75 cents.

American State Papers

A veritable encyclopedia on religious liberty. Historical sketches and patriotic speeches bearing on the subject, together with a vast amount of data collected from various sources, make this book the most valuable collection of facts on the subject of religious liberty ever printed.
It describes the blue-laws of colonial days, the development of religious liberty principles during the eighteenth century, the controversy carried on between religious liberty and religious intolerance during the past one hundred years, and the history and operation of more recent Sunday laws.
In these days when Catholicism is endeavoring to tighten its grip on the affairs of this country, and papal bigotry is asserting its old-time spirit of persecution, the publishing of such a book is much appreciated.
Every Seventh-day Adventist should read this timely book, and place it within the reach of as many persons as possible. It contains 800 pages, and is bound in two styles. Cloth, $1.25; Library, $2.00
