cash or specie. Specie included gold, silver, or

to be self-evident, that all men are created
equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain unalienable Rights, that among these are
Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness"

railway system is state-operated and there were

transporting capacity. Also, Chinese commodity

early demise. It seems that no one could escape an
agonizing fate. Of these deaths, the most
