The U. S. Marshal, and the outlaw
band of Delawareans who came TO
Penn's Grove last Friday to terrify the
town and drive unoffending men at the
point of revolvers to Delaware can only
be compared to the acts of Mexican
Greasers or Grecian brigands. An or
ganized armed band, flourishing revolv-
ers from II State has no right to in
wade another, much less to order the
citizens out of their customary places of
business, take charge of their property
and go off with it, and take hold of and
threaten citizens with arrest at the
point of the reyolvers and tell others
they were not responsible for whom
they may shoot. They were sweating
and Tuning like wild men, when they
approached the alleged Cubans who
WERE seated in the Grove and Railroad
station, and who made no attempt to
escape or to resist their threats. Re-
volyers were found on only three or four
of the Cubans, but they were not load
ed, and that was no offense at law, be.
cause a man has a right to have all the
guns and revolvers he wants to buy. 1t
is a constitutional right.
A U. S. Marshall from Delaware has
no more jurisdiction in New Jersey than
Anew Jersey constable has in Delaware,
and forcing the men at the point of re-
volvers and seizing their property, or
any one else's on Jersey soil, was an act
of worse lawlessness than what the un-
offending Cubans were doing OF sup.

senator Turpic a blind Leader.

Senator Turpie of Indiana tries to
break the force of what is known as
the hammer test" of money-that is,
the fact that a gold coin beaten out of
shape retains its value, while a silver
coin treated in the same way loses half
its value-by claiming that, on account
of the one-tenth alloy a SO goldpiece
would only be worth so If it were put
under the hammer. Senator Turpie ought
to know better than to delude his fol-
lowers with such misleading nonsense.
The weight OF the pure gold in a $40
coin is the same as in an ingot worth
$40. The alloy has nothing to do with
the value of our gold coins, as any jew
elry manufacturer who melts down dou-
Bile eagles for use in his business can
tell the Indiana statesman. 1t is the
23 2-10 grains of gold which constitute
the value of the standard dollars of
20 $40 grains, and that weight of gold
is worth just us much when the coin
containing it is melted or hammered
out of shape. Thousands of $40 and $40
pieces are melted every year for use in
the arts. Does Senator Turpie suppose
that business men are foolish enough to
pay SO for 50 worth of gold merely be-
cause it happens to be in the form of a
coin?

CONCERNING FREE SILVER.
Some Historical Facts For 16 to 1-ers to
Masticate.

Some Historical Facts For 10 to 1-ers to
Masticate. p
In his recent sound money speech at
Hillsboro, Tex, Judge Rufus Hardy
cited the following historical facts;
The United States today has a 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 the
volume of its silver circulation is great
or per capita than the entire circulation
of gold, silver and paper reduced to
silyer-of any free coinage nation.
The United States under a gold stand
ard-since 1S73-bas maintained a
greater circulation per capita than it
ever did before.
There has been five times more silver
coined under the gold standard, from
1878 till now, 22 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 its 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 S4.71.
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 a third of those in the
United States.
No country on earth has in practice o
double (gold and silver) standard.
No country for 200 years (since com
merce became international) ever has in
practice had a double standard
The proposition that there can be but
one standard is in fact self evident.

treasury in 1880 under Jackson

LEGISLATION AND PRICES.
Laws of Trade More Powerful a the
Laws of Nations.


The Iowa Democrats on Aug. 7 de-
clared against free coinage of silver at
1G to l by an overwhelming majority.
The following is a short quotation from
the speech of Hon. Nathaniel French,
chairman of the convention:
Sat what ratio shall we coin the
metals so that a dollar Of one will equal
a dollar of the other in intrinsic and
exchangeable value? When we want to
know how much things are worth, we
go to the markets and find out. We
don't hunt up a congressman to ask the
value Of eggs or spring chickens or grain
or anything else, or if congress has de-
clare6 what their value shall be. We
know that the mere declaration of con-
gress, or ever a constitutional amend
ment, could not fix the price of a single
egg. In like manner. if we want to know
how many ounces of silver an ounce Of
gold is worth, we must go to the bull
lion markets instead of the revised
statutes. Thomas Jefferson could not
have won undying fame as a statesman
and leader Of the common people if he
had not been endowed with IN album
dance Of common sense, and over 100
years ago, when congress sought his ad-
vice az to the ratio to adopt for the
coinage of gold and silver, he said:
Disregard legal proportions altogether.
Inquire into the market price, He
knew hat opinions should not and
could not be controlled by legislation.
He knew that the basic laws of trade
were more powerful than the laws Of
nations and that the multiplication
table could not be altered by statute.
"To so coin gold and silver that both
shall circulate together by reason of
parity of value we must follow Jeffer-
sons advice and inquire the price Of
gold and silver in the markets OF the
world. If we find one ounce of gold will
buy 80 ounces of silver, that is the ratio
to adopt. To put in the silver dollar
more than SO grains of silver for each
grain of gold in the gold dollar would
at once drive our silver money from cir
culation, and to put in less would BAN
ish our gold. The loss of either would
be a misfortune, and to retain both we
must adopt the mercantile ratio, putting
In u coins no more and no less than is
needed to make one of equal value to
the other
