With Divine favor, this book is dedicated to the elevation and salvation of all mankind.

THE object of this equitable
movement is to greatly improve
the conditions of mankind
everywhere, both temporally and
spiritually, and it is therefore,
intended to ultimately extend to all
parts of this inhabitable globe.
We earnestly trust and believe,
that the impartial study of this little
book, will yet cause a few more
rays of heavenly light to dawn
upon this favored nation.
Do you know that we are sustaining
a government that requires all of us
to render full and faithful service for
its continuance, and at the same
time allows about nine per cent of
our inhabitants to possess and
control seventy one per cent of all
the wealth that is produced by the
whole of us ?
If you be a true philosopher and
can reason from cause to effect
on an equitable basis, you may
find that you now have in this
book the key that will enable you
to unlock many of the mysteries
that go far to explain why
poverty, crime, famine, and war,
with all that is horrible, go hand in
hand with so-called civilization.
IN presenting the claims of The Equitable Union, the author desires to avoid every appearance of egotism, arrogation or
presumption, for the manifestation of such a spirit weakens an argument, although it may be logically correct. Believing that
God is the chief authority and the moving power, for establishing more equitable methods in our political, economic and
spiritual relations, there shall be no evasion or equivocation in proclaiming herewith the important truths contained within this
book.
