He Explains What He Meant by Eree Silver as a Car dinal Doctrine. IT IS A PARAMOUNT ISSUE He Says, and Was Surprised When He Found Ithat He Had Been Placed in Erroneous Light. A representative of the Constitution meeting Colonel Candler, who has, for sev eral days, been confined at home by sick ness in his family,called attention to edi torials in the Macon Telegraph, Griffin News and Valdosta Times, concerning his position on the coinage question. The colonel, with his usual candor and directness, said; “Yes, I have read them with some suprpise. I supposed every reading man in Georgia fully understood my position of this question. “In September last, in an interview pub lished in the Atlanta Constipation, I said: 'Before real, permanent prosperity returns to the tolling millions, silver coinage must be restored.' "In my letter announcing my candidacy, I said I was 'in favor of the coinage of both gold and silver, at all our mints, free and unlimited, without discrimination against either ’ “In my opening spceeh,, in the city of Rome, on the 28th of March, I said: 'I be lieve in an adequate volume of currency, consisting of the gold and silver of the constitution, coined at all our mints free and unlimited, without discrimination against either, supplemented by a paper circulation sufficient in volume to meet all the requirements of trade, redeemable on demand in gold or silver coin. I believe the tax now imposed by federal law on the issue of state banks is unconstitutional and void, because it was imposed, not to raise revenue, but to create and foster monopoly.' "In my last speech delivered at Mil ledgeville on the 20th of last month, I said- T indorse the declarations of the last national Democratic platform, Including that on the much-mooted question of coin age. I believe that the establishment of the single gold standard in our coinage was a mistake which has caused a ruinous shrinkage in values, arrested enterprise, lowered the price of labor and of the pro ducts of labor, and has brought upon the debtor class, which constitutes a large majority of our citizens, much unneces sary distress. Hence, I am In favor of the restoration of the unlimited coinage of both gold and silver at all our mints, with out discrimination against either, as was the case for three-quarters of a century: and I do not believe that we will ever en joy that full measure of prosperity enjoyed In ante-bellum days, until the old coinage warn may for a time observe the coinage laws are practically restored. Foreign questions create diversions and raise new issues, but, like Banquo’s ghost, the silver question will not down until the white metal is fully restored to its ojd place in the coinage. These are my views wn national matters, and they are the views of most Democrats; but some as good men and loyal 'Democrats as I am differ from us on this question of coinage. I would not exclude them from the party councils because they differ from us on this one question, so long as they accept the party party platform and vote the party ticket; and if time should demonstrate that they are right and that I am wrong, I will be quick to get in line with them; and if it should demonstrate that. I am right and they are wrong, as I firmly believe will be the case, then they will get in line with us on this, as they already are on all other party questions.’ "It is true I have often said ‘free coin age is not a cardinal doctrine of Democ racy.' I have used the word ‘cardinal’ in the sense of original. In this sense it is not cardinal nor distinctive. Mr. Jefferson made no declaration on the subject, be cause at that time—and at all times up to 1873 —it was not a party question. All parties, Republicans and federalists, whigs and Democrats, Jefferson and Hamilton, agreed on the free and unlimited coinage of both metals and It was the law. There was absolutely no dissent from this policy. Al! men of all paries stood on this question precisely where I and the vast majority of Georgia Democrats stand to day. in favor of the free and unlimited coinage of both metals without discrimina tion against either. “I have also often said that I w-ould not exclude from tbe party councils those true and loyal Democrats who conscientiously believe in the single gold standard so long as they bow to the expressed will of a ma jority of the pary, accept the party plat form and vote the party ticket. I have been sincere in all of these declarations I have not changed or modified my opinion one iota. I still believe that the best,ln terests of the people of this country de mand the restoration of the free and un limited coinage of both metals. I still be lieve that that minority of ’Democrats who from me and the majority and favor the single gold standard should not be exclud ed from the party councils so long as they accept the party platform and vote tbe party ticket. It is remarkable that, after all of these declarations by me. both through the press and on the stump, any body should conclude that I have changed or modified my views or ‘cut loose from the corpse.’ “I am willing to be liberal with my Democratic brethren who differ from me on the coinage question, but their press must be fair with me and tell the whole story when they quote me I trust this will settle all doubt as to my position on the coinage question. “The assertion of the Telegraph that 'a statement was made at Milledgeville . . . that there is virtually no difference be tween the Democratic faith and the Popu list faith' is so at variance with what was said that I must correct it. "I had been speaking of my own posi tion on the question of silver coinage, clean methods in politics, ring rule etc., and I said: ‘To be consistent every Popu list in the state ought this year to vote for me and the Democratic ticket. These are the only demands in their party platform in which the people are at all interested, and every one of them is a Democratic doctrine a hundred years old.' This is quite different from the language put in my mouth by the Telegraph.” PASSED EXAMINATION. Mr. Clarence Price Passed Successfully at Annapolis. The many friends of the late George C. Price will be gratified to learn that his son. Mr. Clarence H Price, has success fully passed the examination for entrance at the Naval Academy.

In the past the house in which Mr. DeGive, of Atlanta, js one of the principal stockhold ers, has been run at a loss and the reason for this is to be found in the number of second rate attractions that have come to the house at the regular prices.

It was also discussed this morning as to who would succeed Mr. Hodges if he re signed. If the Third Georgia regiment is ordered to Cuba, as it seems now probable, it is understood that all of the officers holding state office® will resign them.

Their Untiring K(Torts in Getting Ammu nition and Rations to the Front Saved the Day. P. E. Butler, of pack train No. 3. writing from Santiago de Cuba, on July 23d, says: “We all had diarrhoea in more or less violent form, and when we landed we had no time to see a doctor, for it was a ease of rush and rush night and day to keep the troops supplied with ammunition and rations, but thanks to Chamberlain’s Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at work and keep our health; in fact, I sincerely believe at one critical time this medicine was the indirect sav iour of our army, for if the packers had been unable to work there would have been no way of getting supplies to the front. There were no roads that a -wagon train could use.. My comrade and myself had the good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack train before we left Tampa, and I know in four eases it saved life.” The above letter was written to he man ufacturers of this medicine, the Chamber lain Medicine Co., Des Moines, lowa.
