 EVANSVILLE. Ga, July 24-Secretary Hoke Smith delivered here yesterday the first of a series of three addresses in Georgia on the nnancisl issue. A tre- mendous crowd assembled to hear the speech and he vas cheered to the echo lie YVES introduced by Judge Perry who paid glowing tribute to President Cleveland. Mir. Smith spoke in part as follows:
 
 thereby deprecisting the value of pro- ducts, said he, is based upon the theory | that the decrease in the value Of silver and in the value of products has been contemporaneous. A careful exsmiua- tion of the facts shows this not to be true. The average decrease of commo- dities since 1873 has been about twenty per cent. The heaviest decline has been in the line of those things which the masses of the people buy. All those re ductions in price are partly attributable to the leasened cost of production and partly to the recent panic.
 While commodities have fallen 20 per cent silver has fallen 50 per cent. The | bullion in the silver dollar is only worth | 52 cents, 25.S grams of standard gold Is worth 100 cents. To lift the value of 4l215 grains Of silver In the United States from 50 to 100 cents, it Nouid be necessary to lift the value Of all the sil- yer in the world to the same extent, less | the cost of transporting 1t Co the United l States. In addition to this, if the silver | mines can afford to continue increasing | their production as they have, from SS1.000,000 in 1873 to S2l4, ,43I ,0OO IF | 1894, on a market which has fallen 50 per cent what would they do oD mar ket which has risen 100 per cent?
 "Ths immediate effect of tie election of president committed to such policy would be a separation of the gold and silver dollar, the gold dollar going to d premium of about two for one and we would jose at once S678, 8,0G00,000 of the gold now in circulation and in the treas ury. Banks would be raided by their depositors. Indebtedness not payable ir gold would be collected at once or property owned by the debtors taken from them. Merchants would iail, manufactures close, workmen be idle, farm products without market and poverty and distress be found on all sides"
 Concluding he said: "The picture is not overdrawp, when 1 contemplate that there is but one source of comfort, 1t Is an abiding confidence that with twelve months of full free discussion the Ameri- can people can be relied upon to over whelmingly defeat any party which pro- poses to bring such distress upon us. It is a source of qualification 10 Democrats
 
 brought upon the country by unwise legislation of the previous administra tion. Your representatives at Washing ton were confronted with many difficult ! ties. No civil crisis has been more serious. Let the return of prosperity, ! let the daily news that factories are ! again at work ard that three million | wage earnel have had their wages in- | creased; let the rise in value of farm l products tell how they have succeeded l The Mckinley bill has been repealed, | the credit of the government has been | preserved. Money hea been kept sound | and We will go to the country in 1896 | with the Democratic party fighing fur ] ther high tariff legislation, opposing bad i money and assured of success"
