Product Information

Excerpt from The Safety of the Nation: Showing How Our Security Rests Upon Our Industries The Object of a National Policy. - If we are to conduct wisely our national affairs, it is clear that we must have some guiding principle. As the needle of the mariners' compass is governed by the Pole, to which it always returns, however it may be shaken, so we must have our Pole Star to fix our course in this our little voyage of inquiry. What, then, is the object of a national policy? Various inquirers give various answers. Some say happiness, some riches, others liberty, still others an equal division of the national wealth. The greatest happiness of the greatest number is probably the favourite guiding principle of our modern statesmen. Yet if we fairly consider the matter, happiness is Pole Star but a will-o'-the-wisp.
