Senator Daniel thanks the Lynchburg
News for charactcrizing as ''manifestly
absurd" the report that he had said to
Mr. Bryan that he was. not free sill
yer man in 1896. He says that he was
just as much free silver man as MI
Bryan. that he advocated the ancient
bimetallic money of the country for
years before that gentleman took up
the subject; that he stuck to it until
the gold standard had become the law
of the land by act of Congress. and the
cause of free silver had been beaten on
the appeal made for II before the
American people. But he adds that, af-
ter overwhelming defeat, lie thought
it vain and disastrous thing to re-
new the struggle In any form.
1t seems to us that it was hardly
necessary for Senator Daniel to dig
Nifty this senseless report with formal
denial, but his frank and manly state
ment should at least serve to put
stop to It's further circulation.

least fourteen were born in New York
