Synopsis

Excerpt from The Up-to-Date Primer: A First Book of Lessons for Little Political Economists; In Words of One Syllable With Pictures

What is it? It is a Fish. It has a Name. The Name is Pike. It is a big Fish and can Bite. See its Teeth. Can a Fish live on the Land? No, it will die on Land. But see, the small Fish is on the Land. Will the small Fish die? Yes, it will. Why does it go on Land, then? The Pike drove it to the Land. The small Fish is a Perch. Is not the Pike 3. Bad Fish to do so ill a deed? It is, but you must not say so. DO you not see that the Pike owns the Stream, and so has a right to get Rent for the use of the Stream from the Perch? But the Perch can not pay, and so has to get out. The Pike means no ill, but Biz is Biz. But should it be the Law that a Pike may own a Stream? Ah, now you have hit it. No, it should not. Such a law is bad for Perch.
