In the course of a speech to the citizens of Albany on Tuesday last Mr. Bryan said : “Onr opponents at last have taken a definiie position on the money question. Their platform adopted at St. Louis declares that the gold standard must be maintained in this nation until other nations shall con-ent to its abandonment. We believe that declaration that commits us to a guid standard until other nations come to vur relief is equavelent to a declaration in favor of @ permanent mation of a gold standard, because we do not believe that other nations will take pity on us before we take pity on ourselves. We have then to Ouglit the Amer-~ the conti consider this juestion : can people to submit longer tua gold standard ? The Democratic party bas begun a war of exterminetion against iLe gold standard . We ask uo quarter; we give noquarter. We shall prosecute cur warfare until there jis vot an Ameri an citizen who dares tu advocate tie g hi standard. They ask‘Why?’ We reply that the gold IS @ Conspiracy against the human race, and that we would no more join it than we would join ao my marching to despoil our homes snd destroy our families. I ask you not tot ke my word alone as to the evils of the gold standard. I ca]] as a witness a geotlenin whose voice has been beard in the coun: els of the Democratic party.” Here Mr. Bryan quoted at some lengih from the speech of Mr. Curliale on eu tof t delivered in House of Representatives some eighteen years aso. standard ar- tne siemetaliisin, the - -__oe.- _— — ENGLISH FREE SILVERITES, lespatches to the N-w York Journal from London says: ‘jhe East Suffold Chamber of Agriculture bed @ public meeting in the Town Hall at Ips- wich to hear an adress and hold a d. bate on the topic, “The battle for free coinage, or the American presidential election an‘ the British farmere.” A resolution of sympathy forthe American farmer was adupted as follows : “This chamber heliev | ing that the disastrous fall in prices from which agriculture is suffering in ail god , 7 Special cable standard countries has bn caused mainly by legislation ch - ing the mints against one cf the two precious metals, beartily sympa- thize with and wish success to the Aim- erican tarmers in their present strugzle to get the mints reopened.” An address was made by Robert Lacey Everette, ex-member of Parliament for Suffolk, and now # member of the Royal Commission of Inquiry into the agriculiur- al depression. He said farmers here are suffering exactly the same as American farmers, but being tuch & comparative'y emall class in England, their compla nts and interests are ignored. He strongly believed that the success of Bryan and tree silver would greatly help English farmere. Other speakers were mostly farmers, aud they expressed similar opinions. _——- --—-— « wo ms * It is stated thet the French are taking to heart the unpleasant showing of their new census much more than they did five years ago. Then the Republic was io the first throes of its ecstasy at the prospect of a Kiussian alliance, and consoled itself by the thought that if the French population did not increase the Russian expanded at a tremendous rate. But now a good desl of gilt is off the ;o'den rod.

Miss Clara Barton, who has returned from her relief work among the per-ecuted Armenians, «peaks highly of the treatment she recieved at the hands of the Turkish officials and soldiers. This was hardly expected, in view of receat stories of Turkish cruelty and oppression. Perhaps there is something inthe way cf taking a Turk that makes bim civil or savage.

Desparones ro THe Examiner oe ES, PARLIAMENT OF CANADA. Debate on the Draft Address. Sir Charles Hibbert’s Onslaught on the Parish Politicians. — Senator Ferguson Scores a Point on Sir Oliver, Orrawa, Aug. 28. In the House of Commons the debate on the address was resumed yesterday, when Sir Hibbert Tupper toox the floor. He 8a fighter, but always hits above the velt. Sir Hibbert Tupper, before recess, de- voted his attention more particularly to the Maritime members of the Cabinet and their records in provincial politics. His analysis of Messrs. Blair’s and VPielding’s course-was Cheered, time after time, by the Conservative benches. After recess, Sir Liibbert continued his forcible arraignement of the new Govern- ment in iis tailure to keep its pledges in Opposit ou. So keenly did S.r Hibbert Tupper carry home bis exposition of Hon, Mr. Fielding’s record, that the Finance Minister several times interrupted him, but was turued down on every occasion w th artistic aeatness. Finally, Hon. Mr. Davies objected to a further discussion of Nova Scotia affairs as dealing with merely parish polities, “Sod who” a-ked Sir Hibbert“introduced parieh politics into this house? Why, ibe First Minister when he chose for hia cabinet men Jike Mr. Fielding, who knew nothing else, to supplant that tried and trusted Liberal Finaacer, Sir Richard Cart- wright.” After this rejoinder the Minister of Ma- rine, like the Minister of Finance, ceased his interruptions. Whiie dealing with the statement ment that the tariff legislation could not be introduced tll next session, Sir Hibbert expressed his suprise that, sccording to the Liberal idea, nine months constituted @ period of gestation in political affairs. In aptness of repartee, richness of wit, and force of argument, Sir Hibbert’s speech was one of his greatest parliament- ary efforts. At ten o’clock the debate ended, and the address was formally passed, In the Senate, Hon. Mr. Ferguson, re- ferring to the speeck just made by Sir Oliver Mowat, said that after all the kind things he (Sir Oliver Mowat) had said of the Senate, it was difficult for him to be- lieve him guilty of heterodoxy upon any subject. But the effect of the kind things he had -aid was to some extent destroyed by the knowledge that he had not always held these flattering Opinions about the Senate. He had recotiections of ccrtain resolutions passed by the inter-previncial conference at Quebec at which Sir Oliver presided and by the liberal convention held at O:tawa which were in no sense complimentary to the Senate. He criticized Sir Oliver’s letter to Hon. Wilfred Laurier in May last with regard to his accepting a seat in the Sevate which he said inplied a threat that unless the Senate pursued a certain line it might become necessary to bring about certain constitutional changes affecting the Senate. He could only say with regard to the threat contained in that letter that the best propf of its not being necessary was to be fond in the speech which he (Sir Oliver) had just delivered. A LIBERAL - CONSERVATIVE CAUCUS, Unanimity of Spirit in the Party. Sir Charles Tupper Established in the Leadership. Orrawa, Aug. 28, The Conservatives held a caucus yester- day. Speeches were made by Hon. Messrs, Foster, Mon ague, Haggart, Caron, Mc.- Neill, McLean and several other promina ent members of the party, and on motion of Mr. McLean, seconded by Mr. Dupont- of Bagot, Sir Charles Tupper was unani mously continued as leader of the party Sir Gharles, in reply, spoke for about an hour. The spirit of the caucus, as well as its formal action, demonstrated that the Con- Servative members are a unit on the old lines Of the party, and that the recent battle has wiped away all discord in their ranks, Henceforth a united front will be pre sented to the enemy. a Two Men Drowned, Hatirax, Aug. 28, Robert Drake and John McLeod, carpen- ters inthe employ of the I.
