Ulysses S. Grant's Sixth State of the Union Address is about the United States' labor and capital and strategies to maintain an abundance of both. Excerpt: "Since the convening of Congress one year ago the nation has undergone a prostration in business and industries such as has not been witnessed with us for many years. Speculation as to the causes for this prostration might be indulged in without profit because as many theories would be advanced as there would be independent writers--those who expressed their views without borrowing--upon the subject."
