NEWMAN, Ga, April s-The third Of
the JOINT financial discussions between
Secretary Smith and ex-Spesker Crisp.
was listened to today by an audience Of
about 1000 people. chiefly farmers, with
a sprinkling of femininity. Gov. At
kinson introduced the speakers. Crisp
and Smith are both suffering from throat
trouble and have been forbidden by
specialists against speaking on success
sive days. In consequence the debate set
for tomorrow has been declared off and
the financial champions will meet next
in Albany Friday.
Ex-Spesker Crisp had the opening to-
day. In thu outset he replied to the
charge that he had not always been for
silver. He said when he was elected
speaker, he was bitterly opposed by the
east on account of his fnanc al we've.
He said two Massachusetts Democrats
voted against his election. His vote pre-
vented, he said, the tablipg Of the free
coinage bill. In the last congress, he
said, he appointed silver committee
and one member changed his We've. He
was not responsible for that. Men often
change their views. With this personal
explanation, Crisp launched into the
silver question.
The secretary was cheered on being
introduced. Judge Crisp" he said in
in the outset, "has sought to create the
impression that / am opposed 10 the use
of both gold and silver. am in favor
of that system which will give US the
largest use of both. deny that unlimit-
ed silver coinage will give US bimetal-
llem and propose to prove it."
He TOOK up the quotation which Crisp
had road from bis Atlanta speech de-
Iivered in 1894.
"If the gentleman had read you that
speech" be said, you would have seen
l spoke Of gold standard in the COM
mon application Of the word in the way
you understand it, when only gold is
used as money" He was not then and
is not now in favor OF such q An, and
his speech showed it then. Secretary
Smiths points were spplauded apprecia-
lively and his conclusions produced pro-
loneed cheering. Ore reference in hls
remarks to President Cleveland awaken
ed a demonstra alton which lasted half
minute.
In answering him, Crisp remarked:
"Brother Smith says l am humorist,
I've been in congress fourteen years
and no man will be able to show you i
have been humorist there. have a
keen sense of the ridicuIuos, however,
and think it does no harm to make
little fun Of my brother, his argument
and his position.
