1Senator Turpie's magnificent
speech at Memphis is an unanswer.
able argument in favor Of equal
laws for the coinage Of both silver
and gold. Senator Turpie il a
thorough scholar, and never makes
a speech without first thoroughly
examining the subject, and fortifv-
ing himself with unquestionable
authority for all he asserts. He
surprised some Of the ignorant gold
standard advocates by showing that
United States gold coins were all
alloyed by law with ten per cent.
OF base metal, and that the asser-
ton OF certain mono metallists that
gold was the only honest coinage.
was the veriest NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
strated by the well-known fact Of
every traveller that United States
gold coin was only taken 1T lis
weight in all foreign countries-and
new five dollar gold piece was
worth really only 80 away from
home. The more YOU examine il
the more plain it is that both metals
should have equal rights Of coinage
