of time In any country under the sun, These are bold words, yet T hold myself at all time: ready to defend them. Coming into powoer at & time of panic, when business was at a wtandstill, when Jabor was unemployed, when our treasury was emply, with courage and fidelity we entered upon a struggle with the enemies of the poople; we emerged from that struggle victorious in this “We have repealed the MeKinley law. “We have greatly reduced taxation. We have made living cheaper. We have made all money taxable, We have taxed surplus incom “We have restored freedom of elections in the repeal of the clection laws “We have reducod public expenditures and we have declared undying hostility to all trusts and monopolies organized for the op- pression of the people n thesa founda- tions ‘We build our house.’ On these issucs we go before the public. For them we have fought the good fight. To them we have kept the fafth and of them we have no fear.’ HOKE SMITH'S OPINIONS Secrotary Smith came forward at the close of Speaker Crisp's address and devoted most of his time to the financial question In opening his remarks, the secretary re- wlewed tho financial troubles of the past eighteen months and congratulated the south as well as Georgia upon the excellent show- ing made. The attention of the commereial world had been attracted, and he predicted for that section a period of development and marked prosperity such as it had never be- fore experienced. The Cotton States and In- fernational exposition would prove of great assistance (n this work, but the attention of eapital once sccured, its confid must also be won, and it was therefore of the utmost Importance to the future welfare of the state that in the coming election the people of Georgla should show the world that the wild theories of the populisis had not foothold amongst them Calling attention to the present experience of the great states of Kansas and Colorado under populistic rule, the secretary asked who would wish to see Georgla follow the Jeadership of a Lewelling or a Waite. Dad s was the record of the third party In the west, the crazy theories of their leaders in congress were enough to stagger comprehen- slon and shock thoughtful men. They sought disbursements amounting to over $25,000,- 000,000 The people of Georgla could not afford to endorse such a party. The state would be disorganized locally and discredited before the world it it appeared o have even Listened Lo their impracticable theories. Few of thelr beliefs were worthy of discussion; but there was one which secmed to have appeared attractive, although when care- fully investigated it must be classified with their other theories almost as equally wild aund impracticable. He referred to the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 by the Unitzd States alone, and declared It to be a plan utterly at variance with sound business principles and fraught avith incalculable evil. He did not wish his fiu'«mun misunderstood. He was a thorough netallist, strong in his faith, and no one more unalterably opposed to the pdoption of a single gold standard. Such a course would bring about a contraction of the currency calculated to cripple the indus- tries and to lessen the demand for supplies. EVILS OF A SINGLE STANDARD. The injury inflicted by a singls standard ourrency had | recently demonstrated pbroad, and the evil efiects had been felt Siere upon products of this country raised for foreign consumption. He believed these evil effects would be lessened by preserving #tho present per capita of currency here; but awhere three-fourths of our great cotton product goes abroad, three-fourths of the Snjury could not be reached except by the sue- «ccss of bimetalllsm in the places of con- sumption. Currency In the United State Mad not been contracted, but, on the c trary, the per capita today was $24.19 egainst an average of $14.85 from 1850 as60. The s as to retary then described the eight @ifferent kinds of money now used In this eountry, and maintained that the instant that any of these went o a premium it would be a commodity for private sale, and ‘contraction would follow; but by preserving them upon an equality and by an increase equal to the growth of business and pop jation, contraction would be prevented, This could be accomplished (1) by changing the bullion In a silver dollar so as to require 800 cents worth of silver in every dollar. @) By international agreement, which, if wocured, would prevent the necessity of changing the ratio, or (3) by calling in all money of small denominations, say $10 and Bess, not consisting of silver, and giving milver the right of way. He especially urged the repeal of the 10 per cent tax on Btate banks as a remedy within the control of the United States of great value. After gketching the history of silver demonetiza- tion by Germany In 1871 and subsequently by Norway, Sweden, Demnmark, Holland, Russia and the nations comprising the Latin union, Secretary Smith said: “In the meantime, the United States had changed from the coin- ege of only $8,310,619 silver dollars in eighty years up to 1873 to the colnage of $419,746,000 standard silver dollars and to the purchase of silver, upon which treasury notes were issued, making a total colnage value of $570,000,000 of silver used in this country during the last twenty years. From an average of $1,000,000 a year the United States had changed to the use of nearly $30,000.000 a year. The annual pro- duct of silver, in the meantime, had changed from $80,000,000 at the coinage ratio of 1873 to $200,000,000 at the coinage ratio of 1892, and depreciated in value about 50 per cent. From these facts several conclusions are frresistible. First, the people of the United Btates have the us> of seventy times as much pilver as money of full legal tinder at pres- gnt as they had before 1873. Second, the depreciation in the value of silver was due o causes other than its trcatment by the WUnited States. WHAT FREE SILVER WOULD DO. “It Is, therefore, evident that silver, at a ratio of 16 to 1, If unlimited coinage was attempted in this country, must elther flood our mints with enormous quantities of sil- ver, which would at once depreciate the walie of our money, or it would be coined only in reasonable quantities, and this could not substantially affect the mercantile value of the bullion throughout the world. In elther event we would be forced to the exclusive use of a dollar worth little mora than balf the present dollar. It would cause he settlement of all contracts at the rato of 50 cents on the dollar. It would require the reorganization of all pr to be adapted 10 the new depreciated currency. It would compel a change of all legislation in fixing salaries. It would necessitate the entire re- adjustment of the private and government business of the United States to moet con- ditions cansed by a degraded dollar, The confusion incldent to such changes would be great. Commerclal fallures, business wreck and ruin must at one” be precipitated. No panic from which our country has suffered could be compared to that which iwould fall upon the industrial interests by Buch aetion. The fear that the government of the United States would not be able to maintain its various moneys upon a parity, but that we wers upon the point of being forced to the silver standard, with results slmilar to those just described, materlally contributed to the panic of last year.

The whole adminis- tration of Mr. Harrison, with the exception of the first year, (which reeeived its impetus from the excellent finandlal conditions exist- ing at the close of Mr, Cleveland's term), was one of falling revenues, increasing ex penditures and a heavy exportation of gold The receipts during the Cleveland admin- fstration were $62,000,000 less than during the Harrison administration, while the total expenditures were over $281,000,000 less. Twenty-two million dollars in gold imported into this country in excess of amount exported during Mr. Clevel ministration, whila Mr. Harrison from office with a net gold balance us of nearly $154,000,000.

IL'was apparent that unless these purcimses should cease the day would surely come when gold and eilver dollars could no longer be main- tained at par and would reach their commer- ciar value rather than their lesal value, driving gold at once out of circulation and bringing this country to a single siiver standard, with the same evil consequenc that would follow the free and unlimited colnage of silver at the ratio of 15 to 1 by the United States alone.

ST. JOHN, N. B, Sept Porest fires are raging for several miles out of this city. Already the damage has been great and seyv- eral villages are in danger. Three dwellings and several barns at Lepreaux were burned yesterday aftern and at last accounts others werc in danger. The houses wero owned by Mrs. K. Reynolds, Thomas Chitty and Mr. Gardiner, and were uninsured. The woods on both sides of the track from St George to Spruce Lake are on fire, and it is doubtful If trains will be able to run through the district. The loss to the crops through Chailotte and St. John counties will be enor- mous. The fire is rapidly working its way toward the suburbs of this city, and unless the wind changes the result will be dis trous. The fire has passed the woods on the Manawagonish road, just beyond this city’s limits, a house, a large barn and several outbuildings owned by M. Rich- ard Thompson, a retired merchant The house was one of the best country res- idences in New Brunswick. Most of the vel- uable furniture was saved, but Mr. Thomp- son's loss will reach §10,000.
