Nothing in This World

Is so cheap as a newspaper, whether it be
measured by the cost Of its production or by its
value to the consumer. We are talking about
an american, metropolitan, daily paper Of the
first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. It's so
cheap and so good you can't afford in this day
Of progress to be Without it. There are other
papers possibly as good, but none better, and
none just like ii. 1t prints all the real news Of
The the news you care t0r-eUery day,
and prints it in the shortest possible space. You
can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do a days
worb too. 1t is an Independent paper and giUes
all political news free from the faint of party
bias. In q word-itS a complete, condensed.
clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the
largest morning circulation in Chicago or the
west-l25, 900 to 10000 a day.
Prof. j. T. Hatfield Of the F~orthweStera

their time at a country place call
ed Stocks. Not a morning goes
by that the famous author does
not spend some portion at her
writing table-in fact, she could
not do otherwise and finish one
of her lengthy novels, all of which
she rewrites a number of times
before she sends them out. How
ever, she finds time to devote to
the pleasures of her son and two
daughters, and many house par
ties gather at Stocks, where cy-
cling is the principal diversion. A

THINK TWICE, VOTE ONCE.

The third OF Novem Der,
Election day;
Be true to the nation
Anarchy slay.
Don't vote for a change of
The hundred cent dollar;
Don't vote to enslave US
A free silver collar.
| Unfurl to the world
AS the leading nation
The "Stars and Stripes"
'Gainst reputation.
All eyes are upon US,
Decide well your vote;
It's protection and progress,
Or backward we float.
Don't think for a moment,
Should free silver win,
That all of our pockets
Will be filled to the chin
That prosperity III spread
And poverty narrow,
Until every voter
Will push wheelbarrow-
To carry the silver
He finds everywhere,
AS free as the water,
AS free as the air.
Don't think for a moment,
With silver so free,
You can exchange it for bread,
Or pay for spree;
1t will then be too common,
And discounted as dirt,
And then, dear silverites,
Is when it will hurt.
Don't vote the mysterious,
But vote for plain facts;
Don't follow a trail
Where they "cover their tracks ;"
But vote for the dollar
That encircles the world
No-never discounted,
No matter where buried.
Be proud Of our nation,
The land of the free
Whose flag is respected
Over land-Over sea
Be patriot today, friend,
Free Silver won't do;
It endangers our credit
1t cannot help you.
Don't let the silver kings
Crown Uncle Sam with thorns;
Don't let them pile their silver
On Uncle SamuePs corns;
Don't let them rob him OF his gold
And break the old mans heart;
Don't hang him on a debtors cross
Vote right-Do we'll your part.

FARRAGUT AT BosPoRUs.
No Sultan Could Stop Him From
Going to Constantinople.

No Sultan Could Stop Him From
Going to Constantinople.
The refusal of the sultan to al
low the Bancroft to sail up to
Constantinople is not an unpre
cedented occurrence, and it is
strange that Minister Terrell did
not remind the Turkish govern
ment of former Experience it
had with an American ship-of-
war.
In October, 1888, Admiral Far
ragut visited ConstantinOple, He
was in the old Franklin. a fifty
gun ship, now employed as re-
ceiving ship at Norfolk, and in re-
ply to his application for per
mission to enter the BOspOrus
with her he met with Il prompt
refusal. He was told that the
treaty of Paris expressly prOvid-
ed that foreign vessels of war
should not enter that sea. In
stead of acpuiescing, as the Ban
croft appears to have done in the
like case, the hero of Mobile pro-
tested, and informed the grand
vizier that it was his purpose to
anchor his flagship off the city
of Constantinople. The Turks
were shocked, and Il council of
foreign ambassadors, represent
ing the nations which had been
parties to the treaty of Paris, was
called to rebuke the impudent
American.
Neither Farragut nor our min
lister to Constantinople, f. JOY
Norris, scared worth cent
Farragut declared that in the
biographies he had studied it
was nowhere stated that the ere.
ator had bestowed on Turkey ex-
elusive dominion over the arm of
the sea which divided Europe
from Asia. E. JOY Morris re-
minded the Divan that the New
ski, Russian ffty-gun frigate,
had been allowed to sail up to the
city. To this last argument sui
tai Abdul Aziz replied that the
Nevski was commanded by a
prince of the blood. which made |
all the difference. To this Farra-
gut retorted that he commanded |
700 sailors who were all princes
of the blood of the United States,
and he emphasized his purpose |
by lowering his royal masts and |
all his upper spars. This done, |
he politely informed the port
warden that he proposed to do
himself the pleasure of calling in |
his flagship, on the following
morning. The visit was duly |
paid, and the sultan informed |
Mr.. Morris that so far as he was
concerned the admiral was well |
come; that it was two of the for
eign ambassadors who had OBJ |
jected.-San Francisco Chroni-
Gle.
