Senator Turpie of Indiana tries to

tho fact that gold coin beaten out of

coin treated in the same way loses half
its value-by claiming that, on account
Of the ono-tenth alloy $40 goldpiece
would only be worth 50 if it were put
under the hammer. Senator Turpie ought
to know better than to delude his fol-

CONCERNING FREE SILVER.
Some Historical Facts For 10 to L ers to
Masticate.

Some Historical Facts For 10 to 1.ers to
Masticate.
In his recent sound money speech at
Hillsboro, Tex, Judge Rufus Hardy
cited the following historical facts:
The United States today has larger
circulation per capita than any free
coinage country ever did have.
1t has more gold dollars per capita
than any free coinage country on earth
today has of all kinds of money
1t has more silver dollars per capita
than any free silver country today.
1t has more gold than silver, and tho
volume of it's silver circulation is great
er per capita than the entire circulation
of gold, silver and paper reduced to
silver--of any free coinage nation.
The United States under gold stand
ard-since 1878 has maintained q
greater circulation per capita than it
ever did before.
There has been five times moro silver
coined under the gold standard, from
1878 till now, % years, than there was
under free coinage from 1893 to 1878,
81 years.
Every nation that has adopted the
gold standard, except one or two who
are on deprecated paper bases, has in
creased it's circulation
No nation of first class civilization
has the silver standard.
Mexico is the highest type of free sill
yer nation on earth ON double standard,
so called, and its per capita circulation
is SAT-.
Our per capita circulation has in
creased since 1878 more than the entire
circulation of Mexico.
The wages of no free silver country
on earth average third of those in the
United States.
No country on earth has i'll practice a
double (gold and silyer) standard.
No country for 200 years (since COM
MERGE became internationaD ever has in
practice had double standard.
The proposition that there can be but
ono standard is in fact self evident.

OUR FLAG AT STOCKHOLM.


How tho Stars and Stripes Were First
Raised In Sweden's Capital.
Whom Minister Thomas took possession
Of tho archives and property Of tho United
States at Stockholm, he was surprised to
find no American flag among them. He
spoke Of tho matter TO some OF his col
leagues tho ministers Of other countries
and WAS told that no foreign minister at
Stockholm over hoistod his country's fling
TO do 80 would bo looked upon ~ u breach
Of etiquette. Mr.. Thomas was In strait
bCtwlxt two. lio did not wish TO offend
tho Swedes, and no did not wish to SEQ an
American holiday go by without display
ing the American flag from tho American
legation.
An idea came 10 him. IIo sent to Amer
Ion for flag. lle procured u staff and
from drawings Of his own hnd mn Amori
can eagle carved. This was gilded and
porehod on top Of tho staff. Thon he wait
cd till tho great Swedish holiday came
around--the anniversary Of tho death Of
Gustayus Adolphus On that day, when
tho great choral societies OF Stockholm
marched through tho streets OF tho city,
with flags flying and multitudes follow
ing, IL happened somehow that regardless
Of precedent or custom, tho flag Of the
United States-flag, flagstaff golden caglo
and all--wero run out from tho American
legation.
Tho result Justified all tho minister's
hopes, Every ono was pleased People and
press united In praise Of tho tribute thus
paid by tho American minister to tho
memory of tho great Swedish warrior
From that time Of course the stars and
stripes ilonted unohalengod In tho capital
of tho north land, especially on Washing
toms birthday, Memorial day and tho
Fourth Of July.
Often, says Mr.. Thomas, some Amori.
can traveller would drop into tho legation
to say In substances "lIow aro you, sirf
