The proprietor was glad to see the man

HARD NUTS FOR NONO-AETAL-
LISTS TO CRACK.

I The ringing silver speech which Sena
tor Brown, Ot Georgia, recently made in
| the United States Senate. il full OF hard
nuts for nono-nnetalli>ts to crack. He
attacked the theory of Secrct"r: F"lger
that silver was retained in the country,
while gold left it, and quoted against it
reports from distinguished tinanciers in
gold and silver, nOnO-lnctallists and III
m,etal!ists alike. He said that in 1881
We imported nearly ten times - much
gold us silver and exported nearly seven
times "a n,,,cl, silver Us gold. and this
was done after nearly SOU, ON', 0W Of sil-
yer had been coined under the act Of IS.
In 1850 We imported over six and one
half time, rs much gold as silver,
AMI exported over three and hall
times as much silver as gold. These
figures. lie rightfully contcndcd.
showed that under our coinage system,
the drain Of gold is toward the United
States. and the drain of silver from the
United States.
In favOring greenback redemption at
ls,r in coin, Mr.. Brown said he was op-
lnAsc.l to the idea of one currency for
b,ndholdcrs and another for the people,
and that the full measure of his rights
and equities entities the bOndholder,

silver dollars of the standard Of 1873,
