Here Is tho Opion of Well Known
Englishman the Double Standard.
Lord Liddesdale, for many years
governor Of the Bank Of England. and
gentleman well versed in the finances
of the world. made the following state
ment at recent banquet held in Lon
don:
"If the American people had the
courage of their conviction and adopt
the double standard of gold and silver,
no matter at what ratio. they would in
side of year command the trade of
the East-India Straits Settlements,
China and Japan. Unless England
should follow suit and adopt a bimetal-
lie standard she would inside Of
eighteen months cease to be COM
mercial factor of the markets of the
world. The whole of the silver using
countries of the earth would throw
their trade to this country They
would buy of that nation that places
the highest value upon their currency.
In addition to the oriental countries
sending their trade to America, iL the
event of the silver issue carrying the
day, the whole of the South American
republics would at once become a
great commercial factor abroad, for
gain Is greater than sentiment in build
ing up trade. American cargoes would

w. J. Bryan will certainly bs the
next president Of the United States.
The campaign has progressed far
enough to show that the result is mere
ly q question of how large a majority
the people will roll up against the
domination of Wall street and the
supremacy Of the English gold stand
ard. Mr.. Bryan has issued the follow
Ing signed statement which fully COIN
cides with and verines the judgment
and sentiment OF the overwhelming
majority Of the people. 1t looks as II
the election was going to be a land
slide, a tidal wave which will sweep all
before 1t. The following is Mr.. Bryan's
statement. Issued to the press Satur-
day morning from Cincinnati:
Il have no doubt Of my election.
base my confidence upon the fact that
the free coinage sentiment is growing
every day. The people are studying
the money question. and the study CT
1T Is convincing the people generally
that there can be no prosperity SO long
as the gold standard Is maintained.
THE gold standard makes a dearer
dollar. A dearer dollar makes falling
prices. and falling prices mean hard
times. The people who profit by hard
times are relatively SO few in number
that they would amount to nothing at
all but for the fact that they are aided
by considerable number OF people
who. not having studied the money
question themselves. have received In
structions from a few financiers.
"The number of republicans who
have declared for free silver outnum-
bers the democrats who have deserted
the ticket. and while the number of
silver republicans is increasing all the
time, the number of bolting democrats
is all the time decreasing.
while have no doubt as to my elec-
ton, l believe that the advocates of
free coinage should work from now
to election day TO make the majority
in the electoral college SO large that no
party hereafter will ever dare to pro-
pose submission to foreign financial
policy.

be recovering rapidly from the effects
of the recent war. Mr.. Hosie, consul
at Niuchwang. reports that he had n
recent opportunity of visiting Kirin,
lhe central province of Manchuria, and
nothing surprised him more than the
magnificence of the agricultural area
through which he passed in this jour
ney of over 7S0 miles. The country re-
sembled very much the plains of Cana
da, with here and there n touch of the
rolling lands of the northeast of Scot
land. There were no small cultivated
patches, as in southern and central
China; fields on u gigantic scale every
where met the eye. Scarcely q piece
of waste land was to be seen. He
mentions the all but incredible volume
of trade that was being carried on
along the main roads, and the great
impetus which the Japanese occupa-
tion of the Laotong peninsula gave to
the development Of the more northern
districts of Manchuria. Russian en-
ploring parties have been traversins

CHARLES F. CSisp DEAD,
Dies at Atlanta After u Long and Pa,uf,
Illness


Illness.
Atlanta. Ga, Oct. 23.-Charles T..
Crisp, the ex-speakcr of the house of
representatives. died here this after
noon.
Ihe end came at quarter to two
O'Clock. Mr.. Crisp had been an In,
mate Of the sanItarium of DIR. Holmes
In this city for several weeks. His
condition has been reported as very
low, but no fatal conclusion to his ILL.,
ness had been expected SO soon.
When n rumor got abroad several
days ago that he was sinking 1t was
vigorously denied at the sanitarium.
where 1t was given out that he was get.
ting better.
Mr.. Crisp was the choice of the Dem
ocrats of Georgia to succeed Senator
John b. Gordon in the United States
senate, and would have been chosen
to that position by the legislature ut
Its approaching session. had he lived.
His untimely death throws the polit-
ical situation into chaos and makes
the choice OF n senator a matter of
great uncertainty. The legislature,
however, Is almost unanimously for
free silver and whoever Is named will
be an advocate OF that policy. Mr..
Crisp had been at the sanitarium five
weeks. suffering from malarial fever.
The immediate cause of death was
heart failure.
