Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
124
This
man
was
not
proposed
as
one
designated
by
the
popular
voice,
but
was
named
by
a
certain
Wise
man
as
one
of
retired
habits
and
uncommon
genius.
The
council
unanimously
rejected
the
application,
and
passed
a
vote
of
censure
on
him
for
troubling
them
with
the
dreams
of
a
maniac
or
an
enthusiast.
The
members
of
the
council
were
generally
of
opinion
that
to
suppose
the
outside
of
such
a
world
to
be
inhabited
was
as
absurd
as
to
suppose
men
to
dwell
on
the
outside
of
their
houses.
Another
man
was
proposed
as
Wise,
for
devising
a
scheme
to
relieve
the
government
from
the
trouble
of
superintending
the
distribution
of
things
useful,
in
order
to
preserve
equality
in
the
comforts
of
the
people
throughout
the
land;
and
from
constant
attention
to
the
emission
and
withdrawal
of
tokens,
to
maintain
their
regular
value,
and
insure
their
proper
effect.
His
plan
was
to
substitute
in
place
of
the
tokens
a
system
of
promissory
obligations,
to
be
issued
by
an
association
of
individuals
who
should
be
always
bound
to
redeem
them.
This
plan,
he
contended,
would
greatly
facilitate
exchanges,
and
contribute
to
the
convenience
of
government.
His
scheme
was
promptly
condemned,
as
a
device
to
cheat
the
people,
by
causing
perpetual
fluctuations
in
the
nominal
price
of
things;
and
he
was
recorded
as
a
designing
man,
unfit
to
be
of
the
order
of
Worthies.
Another
was
proposed
for
admission
as
Wise,
for
composing
a
code
of
written
laws,
and
writing
a
book
to
prove
that
the
adoption
of
his
project
of
numerous
and
particular
laws
in
writing
would
conduce
to
the
welfare
of
society,
by
enabling
every
one
to
know,
with
technical
precision,
what
he
might
and
what
he
might
not
do.
