"The Greatest Man. "

Hon. George d. Tillman has given
the Augusta Chronicle his opion of the
democratic nominee. Colonel Tillman
is a good Judge of human nature, and
statesman himself. He said
During my career in congress I
spent 10 winters in Washington, whe,
/ came in contact more or less with
nearly all the s. eat men of this coun-
try, and with many from foreign coun-
tries and while serving two years in
congress with Bryan, he always inn
pressed me rs being the greatest man l
ever met, and as being Just as good as
he was great. As an orator / have
never heard but three men who could
be compared with him. They were
Ben Hill, Blaine and Blackburn. He
either knows everything or has such o
faculty of reference to books that he
can quickly get any information he
wants. His memory is simply marvellous
and he has such an innate knowledge
of men that he can read their character
ct glance. He is always at work
seeking knowledge, by reading, con-
versatiOn or reflection, and seems to
look upon idleness as crime. If he
has even any small vice chewing,
smoking, drinking, gambling, cursing,
ETC., never discovered it during two
years official intercourse with him. In
fact, the man always appears to be
conscientiously inspired with enthusi-
asm to do good for others. He is a
most devoted father, and acts more like
lover than a husband toward his wife.
In few words, morally speaking, he is
SO we'll balanced that he could not in
tentionally do a wrong thing if he
were to try, and his intellect is so clear
and strong that he always avoids evil
as near as it is human to do so. There
fore, / think Bryan will be president
because he ought to be ; and because
he was born great, and because not
even the presidency could confer great
ness upon him. ="

To young persons out of employment
and seeking an education
Owing to the general depression of
business many of you are, at the present
time, out of employment. While out
of work or only partially employed
there is one way in which you can save
your time. Spend it in getting an
education or preparing for some trade
or profession in which you can earn
more hereafter. Your time is your
best property, and under no circum.
stances can you afford to spend it in
idleness. Invest it in an education and
it will be we'll saved. BY taking some
trifing position, or, still worse, by
idling your time away, you depreciate
yourself in the estimation of every.
body. Better do anything than to b.
idle, but it is far better to go to college
than spend your time in improbable
work.
All who are prepared to enter oul
classes are heartily invited to come Il
the State University. It offers yor
free tuition, with the best opportuni
ties for getting liberal or practica
education, for about the same expens,
now required to sustain you at home
you can come to college and use you
time profitably.
Special arrangements have been mad,
to reduce students expenses this ses
sion. Operating its own dormitoriel
and boarding house, the university il
able to offer good and healthful living
at very moderate rates. At the new
Farm Home lodgings, board and wash
ing are provided at nine dollars $50
per month, or thirty cents GO cents
per day. In the regular dormitoriei
on the hill board, lights, fuel ant
washing may be had at thirteen dollar
and fifty cents ($i550) per month, O.
forty-fve cents CAS- cents) per day. Tn,
new buildings will accommodate sixty
additional persons.
You can not afford to throw away
your time, Use it here in getting Of
education. You can not afford to stay
at home or be idle, when such oppor
tunities are here offered.

McKinley Then and Now,

If Mckinley has any honest, firm
convictions on the money question no
body knows what they are certainly
the public does not. He has talked
and voted on all sides of the question.
In o speech delivered at Toledo, in his
own state, February 70, 1891, he used
this language,
During all of Grover Cleveland's
years at the head of the government
he was dish6noring one of our precious
metals, one of our great products, dis
crediting silver and enhancing the
price of gold. He endeavored even be-
fore his inauguration to office to stop
the coinage Of silver dollars and after
ward to the end of his administration
perssistently used his power to that
end. He was determined to contract
the circulating medium and demone-
tie one of the coins of commerce,
limit that volume of money among the
people, make money scarce and there
fore dear. He would have increased
the value of money and diminished
the value of everything else-money
the master, everything else the servant.
He was not thinking of the poor then.
He left their side. He was not stand
ing forth in their defense. Cheap
coats, cheap labor. aud dear money /;
the sponsor and promoter of those pro-
Tossing to stand guard over the welfare
Of the poor and lowly."
Today the author Of the words quoted
is candidate ON aud defender Of q
platform that declares for the very pol
icy he denounced in the above language
for policy that is intended to "dis-
credit silver and enhance the price Of
gold ;" that CONTRACTS the circulating
medium, limits the volume of money
among the people, making money scarce
and therefore DEAR" that favors sin
creasing the value of money and di-
minishing the value of everything else
money the master, everything else
the servant" This is what he stands
for now; this is what he advocates at
the dictation of his masters the policy
he will follow if he is elected president.
There is nothing more clear than the
fact that Mckinley is what republican
Senator Chandler declared him to be-
mortgaged man. Knoxville Tri-

Dalls, Texas, September 20.-In q

the following significant correspond
ence between himself and Prince Bis
marck on the money question
"PRMcB BIsMARcK-Sir The great
question of finance is now of supreme
interest to the people of the United
States 1t is presented in various forms,
but in general way, it may be said to
be, first, whether the United States
shall adopt the single gold standard ;
or, second, whether they shall adopt
bimetallism with both gold and silver
as the standard or primary money.
The argument in favor of each is we'll
known to you, but it is particularly IN
sisted that we should adopt the policy
Of bimetallism because the supply of
gold in the world for coinage is in
sufficient to meet the demand, and be-
cause such a standard will still further
depress the values of property.
(Which, in your Judgment, is the
best policy to adopt, the gold standard
or bimetallism, giving your reasons
"What effect, iu your judgment, will
the immediate adoption of bimetallism
by the United States have on the cause
of bimetallism in Germany and other
great commercial nations a?

"HONoRED SIR-YOur esteemed favor
has been duly received. 1 hold that
this is the very hour that would be ad-
visable to bring about between the ma
tons chiefly in the worlds commerce a
mutual agreement in favor of the es-
adjustment of bimetalllsm. The Uni
ted States are freer by far in their
movements than any nation of Europe,
and hence, if the people of the United

their interestto take independent action

not but believe that such action would
