BIZ. Crisp Admits That Gold Is the Stand
ard OF Value.


In his Atlanta debate with Secretary
Smith ex-Speaker Crisp attempted to
answer the objection Of the sound
money advocates against the % cent
dollar by saying: Il tell you, my
friends that l do not want the free ana
unlimited coinage Of silver unless the
bullion in silver dollar is worth as
much as the bullion in gold dollar.
All this rot about cheap money IS a sub
terfuge Of those who are interested u
maintaining the dearest kind Of money. "
Mr.. Crisp has for years been clam
oring for free silver on the ground that
gold has increased III value and IS too
scarce and dear to serve as money, and
has urged the necessity OF having
cheaper money for the people" as
against dear money for the bankers.
Yet he now says that he only wants free
coinage under the condition that the
bullion in a silver dollar shall be worth
a dollar in gold This is exactly what
Thomas Jefferson favored when he adj
yised that the ratio between gold and
silver be fixed as nearly as possible at
the commercial value Of the two metals.
1t is what the believers il an honest
dollar have always insisted on. y free
coinage law which should put hun
dred cents worth Of silver il each dol
lar would not injuriously affect our pres
ent sound financial system
But what becomes Of Mr.. Crlsp's
promise that under free silver the peo-
pie would have cheap money? If a gold
dollar is too dear to be used TO measure
values. how would q silver dollar which
is worth just as much be any cheaper?
The commercial value Of silver is now
about 30 to /. If Mr.. Crisp is honest IN
saving that he wants the bullion III a
silver dollar TO be worth as much rs the
bullion in a gold dollar, he would have
to coin the two metals in a 80 to 1 ratio.
How would that shatter the hated
money power?
Mr.. Crisp warned his Atlanta hearers
against the peoplewho are interested In
maintaining the dearest kind Of money.
When he talks Of coming silver dollars
with q bullion value equal TO gold
dollar. does he not admit that gold IS
the standard and that he wants to
have cur silver money just as valuable

The Missouri Democratic platform de-
mands the ''free and unlimited coinage
Of silver and gold'' cat the ratio Of 16
TO /, without waiting for the action or
approval of any other government.
1t rests this demand on the assertion
that from the beginning Of the govern
mont following policy formulated by
Thomas jefferson and firmly established
by jackson, the Democratic party has
been the party Of bimetallism. But
what are the facts?
The bimetallism Of jefferson and
Jackson was based upon q coinage ratio
represCnting the ratio Of actual value.
The silver and gold dollars they favored
were worth the same. The bnnetallism
Of the Missouri convention proposts sill
Yer dollars worth ehopt one-half 4 gold
dollar each. The bimCtcnisn &C Dcnoc-
racv was honest The bimetGllism # the
Missouri platform proposes swindle of
90 per cent.
Under existing restrictions We have
the largest and Lest bimctallism ever
known in any country. We are using
silver equally with gold and moro large
" than any country in the world ever
did when using gold at all. And we are
keeping all these silver dollars on par
with gold. What the Missouri conyon-
ton proposes is that We shall abolish
the restrictions that have thus made BIZ
metallism possible abandon the use Of
gold. reduce the value Of money one
half, cheat ali creditors, public and pri-
vate, cut down the purchasing power OF
wages and substitute cheap dollar
monomctallism for the honest dollar bi-
metallism we have.
If there is any method in this mad
ness, it is the method If men bent upon
the ruin Of their party.-NeW York

MODERN ATHLETS THE BEST.

London Spectator.
We do not know with any scientific &C
curacy what the Greek athletes actually
did what weights they hurled, at what
pace they ran, how high they leapt, or
what were the heights, weights or age OF
those who sought the wreaths. There are
some lies, ne believe. recorded, but they
are too clearly lies Nobody, for instance,
ever jumped forward 90 feet any more
than he Jumped 500 feet. We know OF some
feats Of endurance which the athletes per-
formed as eoldiers; we know that they
were 1.-THE and slight and well formed, and
we know that they though each other phys
'ically matchless among mankind, and that
is nearly all that we do know.
1t is extremely probable that II the old
victors In the games could be made to live
again for a day, we should find that the
English and American athletes beat them
with a certain ease for Northerners are
stronger than Southerners, and equally
1.-THE and well trained. The Greeks may
have had more endurance. as some savages
have still and Japanere coolies, but even
that is doubtful, for the Greeks thought
swimming across the Hellespont a wonder
