Tilden and Parke Godwin taking the negative. As he printed his argument on this occasion in his autobiography in 1868, it may be accepted as defining the groundwork of his belief. He laid down and explained five positions: 1. A nation which would be prosperous must prosecute various branches of industry, and supply its vital wants mainly by the labor of its own hands.
