Second of a Series OF joint Debates On
the Money Question.


the Money Question.
ATLANTA, Ga, April 2.-Six thousand peo-
pie gathered tonight in the big tabernacle
used during the recent Sam Jones meetings
to hear the second of the series of joint de-
bates on the currency between Secretary Of
the Interior Hoke Smith and ex-Speaker
Charles F. Crisp. Both speakers were greet
ed with salvos of cheers on their appear
ance, that accorded the Secretary being the
heartiest, perhaps. because of the fact that
Atlanta is his home ana a pronounced sound
money center. The speaking began at
o'clock Secretary Smith having the opening.
and speaking for an hour and ten minutes.
Secretary Smith began by saying that he
opposed the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at 16 to for the same reason that
Benjamin H. Hill had opposed 1t. and he
read from that distinguished Georgian's
speech on the subject. delivered in the United
States Senate. He declared that he also op-
posed free coinage because he wanted to see
genuine bimetallism obtain in this country.
The advocates of free coinage, when they
called themselves bimetallists, masqueraded
under a title they did not deserve. He rap
idly outlined the history of coinage to show
that the commercial value of gold and silver
had regulated the he establishment of the legal
France had kept the legal and commercial
ratios together. He (dr. Smith) had, in Au-
gusta. produced the, evidence of historian
after historian to show that the statement
was incorrect, and he would not refer to the
matter again until Mr.. Crisp produced some
authority to sustain his statement. The Sec
retary denied that the act of 1873 had caused
the fell In the price of silver. The law OF
supply and demand and the cheapening of
the cost Of mining had been potent factors in
that depreciation.

said, would cause the 371k grains of silver
in a silver dollar to be worth as much as the
1922 grains OF gold in a gold dollar, IL il
would give real bimetallism, he would be
in favor of It. But he felt ashamed Of him.
self for presenting such case even hypo-
thetically. History and common sense
showed that. IL was impossible. He cited
General Walker, Professor Andrews, Mr. A
J. Balfour and other leading bimetallists as
declaring that the experiment of free COIN

be disastrous. Instead of our currency being
contracted since 1873, Secretary Smith de-
clared @ It had been enormously Increased. He
