THE MATCHIiKflS ?RATOH.
The following Is the great speech of
Wui, J. Bryan, of Nebraska, In closlug
tbo debate upon the platform at Chi
cago, and which rouderod it certain
that he would he the nominee for
President of the United States. Ifiu
gifts as a speaker wore recognized and
appreciated very highly during tho
groat tariff debate in Congress, but he
was never at bettor advantage than
when he met the arguments of Senator
Hill so ably and so squarely in this
'speech at Chicago, and it will go down
in history as tho climax of oloqueuce
and the vindicationof right principles :
. "Mr. Chairman and Centlemcn of
the Convention?It would bo pre
sumptuous Indued to presont myself
against tho distinguished gontlomaa
to whom you havo listened, If this wero
but a measuring of ability, but this is
not a contest among persons. Tho
humblest citl/on In all tho land, when
oallod to arms in a righteous cause, is
.. stronger than all tho whole hosts of
error that thoy can bring. I come to
apeak to you in defouso of u causo as
holy as tho causo of liberty, tho cause
of humanity. (Loud applause.)
"Whon this dobato is concluded a
motion will bo madu to lay upon tho
table tho resolution olTorod in com
mondatioo of tho administration and
also a resolution in condemnation of
tho administration. 1 shall object to
bringing this questiou to a level of
persons. Tho individual is but un
atom ; ho is born, ho acts, ho dies, but
principles aro eternal and this has
; boen a contest of principle. Never be
fore In tho history of this country has
there been witnessed such a contest as
that through which wo havo passed.
Nover before in tho history of Ameri
can politics has a groat issue boon
fought out, as this Issue has boon, by
tho voters themselves.
"On tho 4th of March, 18?5, a few
DemocratB, moat of them ruombcra of
Congross, issued un address to tho
Democrats of tho nation, asserting that
tho money que6tiou was tho paramount
lssuo of tho hour ; asserting also tho
right of allowing tho Democratic
party to control tho position of tho
party on this iaauo, concluding with a
request that all boliovors in tho froo
oolnago of silvor in tho Democratic
party should tako chargo of und con
, trol tho policy of tho Democratic party.
I Throe mouths later, at Memphis, an
organization was perfected and tho
silver Democrats wont forth oponly,
Iniluly and courageously proclaiming
their belief and declaring if successful
they would crystal izo in a platform tho
declaration which thoy had made : und
then began tho conti lot with a zeal ap
proaching that which inspired tbo
crusadors who followed Fetor tho Her
mit. Our ailvor Democrats wont forth
from victory unto victory, until thoy
are assembled now, not to discuss, not
to dobato, but to ontor up judgment
rundorod by them to tho peoplo of this i
country. (Applauso.) In this court
brother has boon arrayod against
brother and father against sou. Tho
warmest tios of love und acquaintance
and association have boon disregarded.
Old loaders have boon oast asido Wfhon
they refused to give expression to tho
sentiment of those whom thoy would
lead, and now loaders have sprung up
to givo dirocion to this cause of truth.
(Choors.)
"Tho gentleman who has just pro
coded rae (Governor Russell) spoke of
, ^tho old State of Massachusetts. Lot
""mo assure him that not one person in
all this convention entertains the least
hostility to tho pooplo of Massachu

of tho largest citizens in tho State of
Massachusetts. (Applause.) When
you como before us and te.l us that wo

business interest by your course.
(Groat applauso and cheering.) We
say to you that you havo made too
limited in its application the detinition
of business men. Tho man omploycd
for wugoa ia as much a business man
as tho employer. (Continued oheers.)
The attorney in u country town is as
much a business man as a lawyer in a
great metropolis. The merchant at a
oross roads is as much a business man
as a merchant in Now York. The
farmer who goes forth in tho morning
and toils all day, begins in the spring
and tolls all summer, und by tho ap
plication of brain and musclo to tbo
natural resources of this country, cre
ates wealth, is us much a business
man as tho man who goes upon tho
bourd of trado and bets upon tno price
of grain.
v "Miners who go a thousand foot into

fdaces precious metals to be poured
nto the channels of trado, areas much
businoss men as tbo few linaneial mag
. nates, who, in a back room, corner tho
money of tho world.
"Wo come to spoak for this broador
olas9of businoss men. Ah, my friends,
we say not one word against those who
live upon tho Atlantic coast, but thoso
hardy pioneers who braved all the
dangors of tho wilderness, who mado

Conditions have Arisen and wo are

They toll us that thu income tax ought j

"Ho ?aya we are opposing the

you will road what Thomas Benton
said you will lind that be said that in
searching history he could not Und but

was Cicoro, who destroyed the conspir
acy of fatalino and waved Rome. Ho
did for Home what Jackson did for this
couutry when he destroyed tho bank
conspiracy and ttaved America. (Ap
plause.)
"Mr. Jefferson, who was, once re
garded as good Democratic authority,
seoms to have a different opinion from
tho gentlemen who have addressed us
on the part of the minority. Those
who are opposed to tho'proposition tell
us to lssuo paper monev Is a function
of tho cank, and the government ought
to go out of the banking business. I
stund with Jefferson rather than with
them, and toll thorn, as he did, the
Issue of money is a function of govern
mont business. They complain about
tho plank whioh declares against life
tenure In otllce. They have tried to
strain it to mean that which it does
not mean. What wo opposo in that
plank is life tenure that Is being built
up at Washington, which excludes
from party representation in the bene
fits, tho humbler members of soolety.
I cannot dwell lougor in my limited
time. (Cries of "Co on ! Go on !")
"Lot mo call attention to two groat
things. Tho gentloman from Now
York says ho will propose an amend
ment providing this chango in our
laws shull not affect contracts already
made. Lot mo remind him that there
is no intontiou of alTectlng these con
tracts which according to tho present
laws aro mado payable lu gold. But if
ho meant to say that wo caunot change
our monetary system without protect
ing those who have loaned monoy be
fore the change was made, I want to
ask him whoro in luw or In morals, ho
can find authority for not protecting
dobtors when the act of 1873 passed.
"They have- trlod for thirty years to
aecu.ro an international agreement and
they uro waiting for it most patiently
und don't want it at all. (Cheers and
laughter long continued.)
"Now, my friends, let mo come to
tho great paramount issue. If they
ask us why we say more on tho money
quest ion than we say on tho tar ill
question, I reply, if protection has
slain its thousands, tho gold standard
hns slain its tons of thousands. If they
ask us why wo did not embody allthoso
things in our platform, which wo be
lieve, wo reply that when we have
restored the money of the constitution
all tho necessary reforms will bo possi
ble and that until that is done there
is no roform thut can bo accomplished.
(Cheers.)
"Mr. Carlisle said In 1878 this year
was a strugglo between tho idle hold
ers of idle capital and tho struggling
musses who produce wealth and pay
tho taxos of the country, und, my
friends, it is a simple question that wo
shall decide. Upon which side shall
tho Democratic party light? Upon
that of tho idlo holder of idle cupital
or upon tho side of the struggling
massos ?
"There are two ideas of govornmcnt.
There uro those who bolleve thut if
you legislate to make tho woll-to-do
prosperous, their proBpority will leak
through on those bolow. Tbo Demo
cratic idea has boon that if you legis
late to make tho musses prosporous
tin Ir prosperity will find its wuy up

L. (Ap, luusc.)
"You como to us and tell us g?'eat
citios are in favor of tho gold standard.
I toll you great cities rest upon broad
and fertile prairies. Burn down your
citios und leave our farms, und your
cities will spring up again us if by
magic. Hut destroy our farms and
grass will grow in tho streets of every
city in this country. (Loud applauso.)
"My friends, wo shall declare this
nation able to legisluto for its own peo
ple on evory question without wuiting
for the uid or conscut of any nution on
earth. (Applnusc.) And upon thut
issuo wo expect to carry every single
State, in the Union.
"It is tho issuo of 1770 OVor again.
Our ancestors, when 3,000,000, had tho
courage to declaro their political inde
pendence of every other nution on
earth. Shall wo, their descendant?,
when wo havo grown to 70,000,000,
I declaro wo uro less independent than
our forefathers ? No, my friends, it
will never bo tho judgment of tbo puo

"Therefore wo care not on what lino

wo shall restore bimetallism. If thoy
duro to como out in tho open und do
fend tho old gold stundard us u good
thing, wo shull fight them to the utter
most. You shall not crucify mankind
upon a cross of gold." (Grout upplauso.)
Then ensued perhaps tho most extra
ordinary scone of this extraordinary
convention. As if by tho magic touch
of a wand delegation after delegation
rose in solid phalanx and gavo vont to
tho most enthusiastic demonstration in
honor of tho Nebraskun orutor. Every
body stood up, even the Eastern men,
who ut first wore disposed to remain in
their seats. Westerners shouted, waved
hankorchiefs, hats, flags, canes, um
brellas and anything else conspicuous
and portablo. Doafoning cheers rent
tho air, articles of every description
wore thrown high abovo tbo surging
sea of humanity. Tho staffs bearing
tbo names of tho States woro hold aloft
with flugs und other things on top and
wavotl to und fro. VVhon tbo pastime
becamo too tame, led by Dolegato Gal
wood, of Texas, nearly allot tho silvor
Statos and Territories and some gold
States joined in u procession, bearing
tho State poles, and marched in tri
umph around the floor. Some of tho
lOastorn States kept thoir sign staffs in
their places and confined their expres
sion to standing up and giving a mild
cheer as individuals. This furor con
tinnod for a quarter of an hour and no
effort was made by tho chairman or
Sergeant-at-ar ins to chock its tempest

Awny to the west und the north and

Wtili ii Melodtuus Voice.
U. W. Barrett in Atlanta Constitution.
It was the writer's good fortune to
know Bryan when he was in Congress.
He heard him make his first speech
there. It was on the tariff and it last
ed three hours. He would have stop
ped sooner ; In fact, bo did stop sooner
several times, but he was urged on by
both sides of the House, so charmed
was everybody with him, and when at
last he sat down he received an ovation
from young members and old stagers of
the House well calculated to turn the
head of many an older man. Till then
be had given but just one mere sug
gestion of being an orator.
It was during the early days of the
tariff debate in the Fifty-Second Con
gress. He spoke for less than fivo
minutes. When he sat down there
was a moment of silence. His elo
queuue had taken away the breath and
desire for merriment from the sur
prised peopled In the Mouse.
Then there burst forth a volley of
applause and then another. All knew
that something big was to be expected
from Bryan and all waited patiently
to learn just what it was.
Though his speech at the Coliseum,
which resulted in his nomination, was a
masterly one of fervid, glowing, enthu
siasm-producting oratory, it did not
show Bryan at his best. It is In Con
gress In the thick of debate that ho
shines in all his splendor. He has
boon just as eloquent thuro, but has
also shown himself a thorough mastor
of himself as a debater.
It Is tho habit of old mombors of tho
opposition to trip orators with inter
ruptions. They tried it with Bryan.
Thoy failed. No mattor whero ho was
interrupted, he would stop immediate
ly, or at tho end of his sontonce, and
courteously asked what was wanted. He
would wait pationtly unttl his inter
rupter had put the question and thon,
quick as a flash, would reply, and nino
times out of ten, ho would, lu tho opin
ion of tho galleries, get the better of
bis opponont. That sort of thing has
happenod time and again in the samo
speech, till one would have fancied
that ovon Job would havo lot looso had
ho been in Bryan's place. He seemod
to court interruption. At any rato, ho
was courteous to ovory one, and so
honost and sincore wore his replies,
and with all so apt, that ho quickly
won the respect of all his audience.
Whon Bryan finished his big tariff
speoch, old Judge Culborson, of Texas,
the leader of the House on legal mat
tors and one of Its veterans, said that
ho had boon in Congress many years
and had heard many a speech in that
time, but that nono of them had
equaled Bryan's, in his opinion.
Bryan made three other big speeohos
while in Congress. One wus on tho
income tax, another on silver, and tho
third on the tariff. Tho second tariff
speech was delivered on the same day
that Bourke Cockran mado his famous
speech on tho same subject. Cockran
had been at his best, and carried tho
House with him.
The molodic thunder of Cockran's
eloquenco was unsurpassable, and tho
man who was to follow him was deem
ed foolish. Bryan was nervous and
apprehensive. He fully appreciated
the hit that' Cockran had mado, and
tho exceeding dilliculty he would
havo in equaling it.
Congrcbsman Springer, who always
took a fatherly interest in Bryan, and
to whom Bryan owes tho fact of his
boing appointed a member of tho com
mittee on ways rnd means, though just
entering on his first term, suggested
that he postpone his speech till the
next day. That advice was all that
was needed to renew Bryan's courage
?lie feeds on opposition?and ho be
came impatient for the time to come
when he should bogin. His friends
were fearful that ho would mako but a
poor show, so shortly after tho speech
of tho great orator o? Tammany Hall.
Cockran had never appeared to hot
ter advantage, and by his speech bad
dimmed tho impression mado by Bry
an's former speeches.
But Bryan hud proceeded but a little,
way ore his most timid friends wore
rcussurod. Bryan speaks from convic
tion. One does not think of him as
merely pleading a cause for pay. He
stimulates his audience into sympathy
with him, and plays on thorn like a
harpist upon his instrument.
The music ho produced in tho Ii n ?
that night wus very effective, l-.v i
the Republicans enjoyed it for lu, ur
tistic excellence. Tho hit he mado was
pronounced as forcible us any ho hud
made, before, und the reception ho re
ceived wus jiibt us great us that accord
ed to Bourke Cockran.
Bryan never descends to tho level of
a trickster in his speeches. Ho is
always the gontloman. Ho believes
that what ho calls tho common peoplo
havo been wronged. It is bis earnest
intention to do his best to right that
wrong, in so fur us ho is ublo to do so.
Ho may bo wrong in his theory of tho
proper way to right the ills of which
he complains, but ho is honest and
sincore, and entitled to tho respectful
consideration of his opponents. When
Bryan makes a speech his hearers
cau rost assured that bo has studied it
very hard. Ho reads everything bear
ing on the subject at issue. His mem
ory is singularly rotontive, and ho can
recall facts and quote with an accuracy
equal and facility suporior to him who
has tho authority in book form at hand.
Ho never speaks from manuscript. Ho
memorizes his speech by putiontstudy.
Ho never mukes u slip in his deliv
ery. Ho is to the lottor perfect. This
is not to be taken that bo memorizes
all his speeches. Ho can jump to his
foot and make us effective and delight
ful a speech us you would euro to hear
Oil the spur of the moment. But hia
big speeches aro tho product of labor
and much of It.
When Bryun first wont to Congress
ho wus singulurly green about somo
common things which ovory reader of
a newspaper and mixer with men is
supposed to know. For instance, I
remember during the debate on tho
repeal of tho Sherman slver purchase
act, Bryan told mo one afternoon,
while wo woro walking down Pennsyl
vania avonuo, that ho had scon an ab
surd statement in a Now York news*
paper that morning. It was to tho
effect that stocks had been IntluoncoJ
by an Interview published with a cer
tain prominent man. " As if what any
man said would influence tho prlco of
stocks," said Bryan. I offered, to prove
it ot his satisfaction if ho would lot me
print an intorviow with him stating
that ho had abandoned tbo hope of
defoating the repeal and that it would
puss. It wus ut first incomprehensible
to bim. Hut ho suw the. reason of it
quickly. Ho had simply never given
tbo subject any thought hoforo.
Bryan wus very popular In Wash
ington. Thoro wus much regret when
ho failod to return to Congress. Ho
was liked on both s dos of tho cham
ber. And bo had no hotter friend
among tho llopublicans than Speaker
Heed, who, though differing from
i'ryan in things politic il, nevertheless
respected him for his sincerity, his ap
Iilioation, his avoldanco of things and
lablts which go to belittlo bo many
public men and his unquestionable
honesty.

\ Sensational Humor That lie is Go
lue, Hack to Cuba.
The Atlanta newspapers givo a ru
mor from New York that liov. A. J.
Dia/., tho noted Baptist missionary in
Cuba, who was recently imprisoned
and relented on condition that ho would
remain In this country, has decided to
head an expedition to aid tho insur
gents in Cuba. Tho Constitution says:
Tho rather sonsationul rumor that
Rev. Alberta .1. Diaz, the famous Bap
tist missionary who languished for a
?:>nn in Moro castle, a prisoner of Gen
. Wi \ or, but was allowed to return
A'imita on tho promise that he
would remain in this country, is to lead
a filibustering expedition to tho lovely
isle, is viewed with a surprise iu At
lanta.
Diaz's headquarters are here. Ho Is
acting under tho direction of Dr. I. T.
Tiohenor, of tho home mission board,
of this city, and Dr. Tiohenor expects
Diaz to remain hero until the war in
Cuba is over. Ho has mapped out work
for tho giftod missionary to do all ovor
tho South and the statement that ho
la to return to Cuba, a filibuster, comes
as a surprise to the Baptists of the
South.
Dr. Diaz left hero only recently and
wont to New York. Ho Is thoro now,
and according to reports, has been in
dulging in war talk.
Dr. Diaz is a patriot and minister of
national standing. Ho has boon heard
throughout tho country in tho pulpits
and lecture halls of the largo cities.
When he was locked up under tho fear
ful monaco of death at tho hands of
Genoral Weyler tho whole American
country was shocked and tho very
deupest interest was taken in liberat
ing him.
It was through tho intervention of
Americans that ho was saved. Ho was
known in Havana to have strong sym
pathy for tho rebels and to aid them
whenevor the smallest opportunity of
fered. Weylor was strongly inclined
to visit tho oxtremost penalty upon
the Baptist missionary, but tho ptrong
case made out In his behalf bj the
Americans and the showing that Diaz
stood high here, caused tho Spanish
commander in opposition to his wishes,
to release his famous prisoner. Diaz
was regarded as lucky to havo escaped
with his lifo and ho was warned to stay
in tho United States while tho war
lasted.
But Dr. Diu/, is a man of fiery fooling
und hin strong passion for the Cuban
ouuso has made him restless to bo back
upon tho scone ofstrifo. Ho has chaf
ed undor his holplossness und now it
appears that tho ministerial patriot
is going to break tho bounds und go
back.
He has been in New Nork several
days and has beeen in oonforonce with
tho officials of tho Cuban junta thero.
He has figured conspicuously in their
work and tho rumor is as well authen
ticated as any rumor of this kind can
well be, that Diaz, is going to head a
filibustering expedition shortlyto leavo
Now York for Cuba.
Thoso who know the Intense nature
of Dr. Diaz feel no surprise at tin . re
ported step. They fully bollovo that
ho will go.
Dr. Diaz was in Atlanta up to a few
days ago, whon ho wont to Now York
on his present trip. While a mission
ary in Cuba ho was under tho dlroction
of the Southern Home Mission board
of tho Baptist denomination, of whicb
Hav. I, T' Tiohonor is tho head. When

Senium' Till man's Eldest Daughter I
and Har Escort Killed In a Thunder '
Htorm.
Mies Add'.e Tillman, the eldest
daughter of Senator Tillman, and Rev.
Robert A. L>ee, rector of tho Episcopal
church at Yorkville, were killed by a
stroke of lightning at U.30 o'olook on
Wednesday afternoon, while on a
mountain party seven miles fram Bre
vard, N. C. This brief statement con
veys the baro facts of an occurrence
which has called forth expressions of
deep and genuino sympathy from all
parts of tho Stato. There was only
one eye-witnoBs ,to the sad tragedy,
who was Mr. T. C. McNooly, general
agent of the Hondersonville and Bre
vard Railroad, and who was one of tho
mountain party, standing only a fow
feet away, and receiving a slight
shock from tho bolt oT lightning. Mr.
MoNeely's statomont Is as follows:
'?Tho mountain party was given in
honor of Miss Addio Tillman by her
friend, Miss Addicks. whom she was
visiting. Thoro wer*o nlno In the party
and all were enjoy im; themselves Im
mensely. Wo wore on Rich Mountain
and stopped under a tree to exchange
horses with Miss Tillman, as hor horse
was not riding woll. Tho rest of the
party galloped on ahead, leaving my
self and Mr. Lee to make the exchange.
While tho exohango was being made a
thunder storm caino up and we waited
under a large tree until the shower
was ovor.
"Miss Tillman was sitting on her
horse. Mr. Lee was standing on tho
ground about ton feet away, holding
his horse. ' I was about thirty foot off.
Just as wo were getting ready to leave
a bolt of lightning flashed from a cloud
wh.'ch was directly overhead. It first
struck theitroe, and then Miss Tillman
and Mr. Lee. Both were killed in
stantly. Thoir horses were also killed.
Tho lightning glanced and knockod a
ahoo off tbu loft hind foot of my
horse. I was also slightly stunned.
"Tne lightning loft no marks ou Miss
Tillman. Mr. Leo was burned on the
arm. The rest of tho party who were
somo distance ahead camo back to us
and we secured a wagon and a mattress
and carried their bodies to Brevard,
where they wore prepared tor ship
ment."
Miss Tillman had recently graduated
at Winthrop College, and it was the in
tention of tho family that she should
make hor debut in Washington society
next winter.
Mr. Leo was a son of Prof. J. P. Lee,
of Duo West, and was about 2? years
old. Ho had been in Yorkvillo for
several years, and was highly regarded
by all tho denominations. His romains
were taken to Abbeville yesterday for
burial.
Tho body of Miss Tillman was taken
to Columbia, and thence on a special
train to Trenton, where tho family
reside. Governor Evans and his
mother, B. R. Tiilmun, jr., and Miss
Lona Tillman, with a number of friends
from Columbia, escorted tho remains
to Trenton.
THE ISSUES OP THE HOUR.
A Democratic Platform in Every Sen
tence, Word and Syllable.
The following is an extract from the
speech of Hon. Wm. .J. Bryan at the
reception given to him at Kansas City,
Mo., on tho way to his homo in Ne
braska. Tho issues of the campaign
are tersely and vigorously presented,
and the speech shows tho rare ability
of the Democratic standard hearer.
Ho said : >
Wo are coming upon a memorable
campaign, tho platform has been
adoptod, the great parties have placed
t heir candidates in the field and in a
littlo while you as citizens, will be
called upon to discuss tho issues in
volved. Tho platform adnptud at
Chicago is in my humble judgment one
of the most splendid presentations of
party politics ever adopted by a Na
tional convention in tho United States.
it presents those issues which in tho
judgment of tho delegates are para
mount in this campaign. It is a Demo
cratic platform in every sontenee, word
and syllable. (Applause.) A Demo
cratic platform that carries us back to
the days of its Illustrious founder,
Thomas Jefferson, and to its most cour
ageous Jefonder, Andrew Jacks on. It
is pervaded with tho spirit of tho De
claration of Independence, It presents
those funJamontal doctri.ios upon
which all truo government must rest.
Prom timo to time new questions
arise, but tho principles of tho Demo
crats are truo in all times. Wo simply
apply to the new conditions, the
principles which are as eternal as
the hills. And in this lino our plat
form has declared that the paramount
public question is tho restoration of tho
gold and silver coinage of tho constitu
tion. (Great applause.)
All other questions must stand back
till this great question is solved. Thoro
aro times sucn as tho time to which
wo aro now passing when tho action of
this Nation upon its financial policy
may dotermino the welfare of tho peo
ple, not only of this Nation, but of tho
world. Not only now, but for years to
como. Wo havo reached a crisis in
our monetary legislation. Thoro are
thoso who would bind this nation to
tho gold standard, but while there are
thoso who would fasten an European
yoke upon tho neck of American free
men thero aro others who 3ay that
this nation shall govern itself and
make its own laws. In speaking with
emphasis upon this subject, I beg you
not to think that wo, who believe in
free coinage of silver at 1(> to 1 luck
charity for thoso who differ. It is not
a campaign in which wo should use
hitter words. 1 havo every respect for
tho opinion of thoso who differ from
us. Thoro aro men, thero aro great
mon, there aro good men who do not
agree to tho restoration of silver. Lot
us not speak of them la terms of de
nunolatlon.
I believe from the bottom of my
heart; I believe, and the belief touches
every fibre in my being, that until we
restore silver to its equal place by the
side of gold, to tho place that it occu
pied for so many years, so many centu
ries and so many ages, there can bo no
lasting prosperity brought back to the
homes of those who toil. Thoy tell us
that they want confidence restored.
We tell them that confldenco must
have a substantial basis upon which to
rost and that so long as you logislate
value out of property there Is nothing
substantial on which confldenco can
rest. If they toll us thoy want an hon
est dollar we toll them that wo have
every doelro for an honost dollar, but
when they attompt to define an honest
dollar we beg them to givo us a dollar
which is as kind to tho man who pro
duces wealth as it is to tho man who
holds it in investment. A dollar which
increases In value is not an honost
dollar. I want you to study this ques
tion for yourselves and want to suggest
two things for you to think about.
They tell you that tho gold standard
of Is the standard of civilization;
that is their argumont. If thoy
tell you that, lot mo suggest an
answer that is complete, if tho gold
standard is tho standard of civilization,
why Is it thut tho United States, the
leader in the civilization of tho world,
has never declared for a gold standard?
I (Applause.)
If tho gold Btandard Is the standard
of civilization! why is it that no na
tional party in tho history of tho
Unitod States has evor deelared that
tho gold standard is a good thing. And
if the Republicans attompt to admit
tbatadoublo standard is better than
a single standard and tells us that this
nat ion is impotent to securo it svithout
tho aid of other nations, wo hurl back
defianco and tell them that this nation
is great enough to legislate for its own
people without waiting for the aid or
consent of any other nation on earth.
(Applause ) Which course will thoy
take? They dare not take olthor course.
They daro not meet tho issue on tho
money question because thoro is no
grouud upon which thoy can stand. If
they had declared for tho gold standard
they might havo advocated it, but hav
ing deelared against the gold standard
tho/ daro not ask tho verdict of their
countrymen upon this proposition.
Mr. Bryan in closing, referred to his
coin pan ion on the national ticket, say
ing: There aro sections in this country
where it has required more heroism to
stand out for tho rights of tho masses
of tho people than in tho West. And
I ask you not to forget that bravo man
who stands upon tho ticket with mo
and who away off near the Atlantic
shoro has been fighting the battles of
tho common people as courageously as
Bland has fought for it in Missouri.
(Groat Applause.)
Crimson Clov?k.?Mauy Inquiries
havo been made in this State with
in tbo past two years as to tho prop
er time to 6ow crimson clover, but
thoy havo usually been mado at a
time when the information was of
no immediate use and was probably
soon forgotten when It was furnish
ed. Tho Georgia agricultural do
partmont ropeats it this year in ad
vance of tho planting season so as to
onablo all farmers to profit by It, as
follows : " September and c5ctobor,
according to locality, aro the best
months to sow crimson clover. Tho
ground must ho put in first class con
dition, and, if necct-sary, kainit and
acid phosphate applied. Sow and roll
as for other clovers. Justus the heado
begin to show in the soring it may bo
cut or it may by grazed, and if the cut
ting is stopped or the cattle taken off
in March, it will again spring up, per
fect seed, and dying down scatter them
over tho land, where thoy will remain
oormuo until September, when tho
young clover will again come into lifo
and gradually re-eovor the land. As a
leguminous plant it is fully as valuable
as peris of other varities of clover."
Thoro is plenty of time in which to put
the ground in proper condition. No
farmer in South Carolina who has not
already tried tho crop should fail to
give it a trial this year. 1 Mant an acre
if no more. It is highly commended
by all agricultural authorities.
Capacity op St. Peter's, Rome,
? It needs fifty thousand persons to
make a crowd in St. Peter's. It is
believed that at least that number
have been present in the church sev
eral times within modern memory ;
but it is thought that the building
would hold eighty thousand?as
many as could be seated on the tiers
in the Colosseum. ?Such a concourse
was there at tb.2 opening of the (Ecu
menical Council in December, 1S(59,
and at the two jubilees celebrated
by Leo XIII; and on all three occa
sions there was plenty of room in
the aisles, besides the broad spaces
which were required for the func
tions themselves.?"St. Peter's" by
Marion Crawford, in the Century for
July.

?Whon the old veterans went to the
re-unlon in Richmond week before
last they saw along the Dan river mag?
niliccnt crop* of corn in full tassel and
splendid crops of oats on the high laivl
that had just been cut. Tho oats have
b. en ruined and the Hood in the Dau
covered tho corn for four days. Thou
sands of bushels of corn and tens of
thousands of oats wore destroyed by
high water and rain. In North
Carolina the principal streams wore
higher than they have been for a num
ber of years, and great damage was
done by the floods. Roanoke rfvor, at.
Weldon, was 37 foot above gauge. It
destroyed the entire crop on one of the
three great State farms near Weldon.
Cape bear river, atFayetteville, was
50 feet above gauge, which is within
half an inoh of its greatest recorded
height.
