PROBABLY SPEAK NO MORE IN THIS CAMPAIGN. "My Own Voice Cannot Be Balsed In Your Hearing, Bat Let the Voice of This Letter rieaa with loo." My Fellow Citizens : On the 25ih of July, in the city ol Raleigh, toe Democratic party in vwincuuuu abBcmoieu, caiiea me trom us ranks, and told me I must be its candidate far Governor. I asked no man tor the com mis. tioo. The vote of the convention came to me unsought and unbidden. Many stronger and abler hands might have r ceived the parly's banner and carried it to victory. Heeding the earnest solicitations of my life long friends, and hearing the expressed will of that great conven tion, and being accustomed to obey, i accepted tbe truHt, and with an eager longing to have the honor of being the chiet executive of tbe mil lion and a halt and more North Carolinian?, whom I esteem as the perfect bloom of ihe Earth's people. I took my position on the front of the battle deck. Although mindlul of the arduous and incessant labors of the campaign to be undertaken, I was not deterred by its promise of unerasing toil, and its manifold ex action?, because I have hnown even from childhood and through all the years ot my lite that tbe highest honor that could be attaiued by a North Carolinian was to obtain the suffrages of tbe freedom of his native S ate for this high and responsible office. As soon as the executive commit tee ot the party w. s organized, under the direction of that commit tee, I went into tbe held as tbe reps resrutative ol my party, which ha become the strongest champion of the great cause for which the people were themselves contending, and as such representative I .was eager to declare to you my fellow citizens, my position upon the all important icsues involved in ihta mighty cii lesi a contest in which tbe people are demanding that the control ot their government and financial sys tem shall be taken from the mouev cbaiigersot foreign land- and placed into their own bauds. Iu my heart of heart of hearts I knew the win ning justice of this noble cause, and loved to support it like a man loves to support the wife and children ot his home. According to the custom esteemed tor its usefulness, as well as its tiqu ty in JNorth Carolina, 1 detired to mt-et my opponent, Mr. ilussell, in joiut deoate upon all tbe ques tions in this campaign, but be re jected my challenge and declined to stand up in tbe field witb me d. tore tbe people. A joiui qibcussioo with me was sougbl by Major iiutb rie of the People's party. I cheer fully accepted the request, and alter filling some appointments of my own, we entered together on a can vass of some ot tbe western counties. By mutual agreement we parted at Wilkesboro, aod 1 continued my regular appointments through tbe State. From exposure and fatigue I have been stricken dewn witb sickness, and am now coined to m mv home. Though much improved j leelincr mvselt erowine stronger am advised that I may not be able in Rirain enter the campaign, fear ing that this may be true, I write this letter that the voters in those t i rt .i T sections Ol JNOno iaronua, iuan have not been able to reach may tmna, that, mv heart is with tbem: I ... i that 1 wish I was able te speak to them in every county in the State to ask their suffrages for tbe great party that has presented my name for consideration, and to meet the people lace to face and talk witb them in regard to their necessities and the policy ot the government. There has been no time since tbe establishment ot our government when issues bave been presented lor the consideration of the plain people of tbe land which more strongly in volve their rights, tbeir liberties and their homes. In 1892 as a delegate from North Carolina to tbe L-bicago convention, 1 stood ior a piauorm, tbe main issue wherein sbouiu De lor the restoration of silver by tbis government as a money ot nnai re demption at tbe ratio last iu uoe uj us.

Our booes were diaanoointoa. la 1896 I attended another o nv irion of the same great frvy m ine game city. It was with a thrill of delight and hope that I a 1.1 . - wiboeBsea tbe adoption of a platform "uivu wh no it'i gcr a UI ject o doubtful construction, but a plats lorui presenting the great needs of ine American people, and I bebeid witb joy the nomination of candi dates upon that platform whose very lives embodied tbe principles of the piauorm itself. It was my moHt heartfelt wish to prer-ent to the good people of North yaroiina my views on these great issues presented bv tbe Democratic parly to the American people, and to speak to them of tbe burdens which they have borne o long and paUeutlj, and to rj ice witb them in the glad hopes oi returning life and prosperity; to explain to them tbe income tax, by which tbe rich should bear their proper burden ot taxation, and to urge that men bold ing property exempted from anv direct taxation should contribute to tbe support ot the government by a just and proportionate tax upon their incomes. This measure adopt. ea oy a Democratic Congress was declared unconstitutional by a court wbtcb was forced, in order to arrive at its conclusion, to overthrow tbe decision of tbe greatest legal minds tbat bave adorned the bench ot the Supreme Court of tbe United S ales for the last one huudred yea s. This and many Questions presented bv rv the State and national platforms I wished to present to you. I desired above all things to sneak to the people of the trusts and unlawful combinations which were threaten ing tbe destruction of the commerce and business of tbe country com binations of men by which the very necessities of life were placed under their absolute control to be dealt out to the consumer at prices fixed by illegal meanx, and under the opera tions ot which small dealers with limited capital are being driven from business. The business of others is being controlled within channels directed by tbe trusts. The prices of raw materials iu tbe hands of tbe original producers are fixed by these trusts and combinations at or below the cost of production, and then in turn tbene same raw materials, when manufacture)), are sold by these or ganizations at the prices nxed by ibtm and tbus to a great ex ent has all coin pel M ion in the purchase of raw materials and in ihe sale of manufactured products been de stroyed. Mark Hanna is the apothe osis of these trusts and combines, and bis cunning fingers are touch ing everv button and every spring in bis reach, and dropping bis money into all the open slots, large or small . i . -u n i k; io..H In mv SDeech to the Julvconven- tion, I declared tben that tbe situa tion tend Tec tbe isttue as to whether the peop'e should be left free to ex ercise their own choice, or whether the power of Ilannaif-m would not in a stealthy and deceptive manner hoodwink them through true ted leaders and endeavor to defeat their ainm. My declaration has been verified, for Uannaism has entered the rooms ot our opposing committees in na tion, State, county and township, and has at least beclouded the minds of our opponents, and thwarted them in their expressed purpose to see the people united in securing tbe control of their financial system, which tbey so much desire. Biy&n, like tbeCoevaher Bayard, approaches like grey-hound, de fends himself like tbe uon, ana use the wolt, retreats only with bis face towards his foes. Hanna carries a dark lantern. I should teel my tollow citizens, in ray pr. sent weakness a great de pair it I thought that these vital questions were to ne presenter to r X vou bv me atone; 11 1 ien mat ine issues of this battle devolved upon any man and that man was myself, but I feel that the cause is above any one man or set oi men. xi is the cause of people.

Oct. 23 The egg- throwing episode ai the Carlisle meeting at Covington, is about as mated in last night's dispatches. As tbe Secretary stepped to tbe front of tbe stage to add reus au au dience of his towns-people, two stale eggs were burled trom the rear of the ball One struck the chande- er in tbe centre ot the ball. The other struck near Major Ilhinock. who, with his wife and two other ladies, occupied seats in tbe front row. A couple of minutes later another egg was tbrowu which strucfc tbe lower part of the stage. Probably not more than a dtzen persons in the hall knew that the eggs had been thrown. Chief of Police Pugh, who was present, made an unsuc cessful effort to discover tbe person wbo threw 'be eggs. I be only attempt at violence was made by a man named Fagin, a plasterer, wbo, unable to get in the ball, bad remained outside. As Mr. Carlisle came of the ball Fagin in stantly threw a lighted cigar at him striking him in the lace. Fagin tben stooped as if to pick up ttome tbing in tbe street and throw it, bu an officer seized tbe man and march ed him to police headquarters.

Oh 23 Honor able Cdailes Frederick Ciisp, Speak er of the Fift first and the Fitly- second VJongresses. died at Holmes' Sanitarium here at 1:45 o'clock this afternoon. . A paroxyein of pain iu tbe heart preceded death, tbe parox ysm probably resulting from a rup ture of tbe heart, as the result ol a fatty degeneration. J udge Crisp came to Atlanta six weeks ago for treatment. He was suffering from a typical case of ma lariat fever, which had developed at bis home io Americus. He spent June, July and a part of August in the Mountains of North Coralina and Tennessee. His return to tbe middle of Georgia during the very hottest period ot the summer deve loped the fever. After a week's treatment by Drs. H Imes and Da vis, the fever disappeared and the judge improved slowly. Last week be was out driving several times and he was getting stronger until Sunday night when he was attacted with symptoms of his old trouble pneumonia. Dr J. S. Todd was called in and ou Tuesday tbe con gestion of the lungs bad di -appeared but the patieut was so weak that Mrs. Crisp telegraphed for her chili dren and all came the next day. On Wednesday and yesterday Judge Crisp's condition improve, but he received no callers. IIn family was hopeful until 10 o clock last night, when he had a paroxysm of pain near tbe bean. At midnight there was another poroxysm and bey continued at intervals all through tbe forenoon. II) uf fered intense pain, but was conscious up to tbe very last. At 1:30 his son Charles F. Crisp, Jr., aod his younger brother and sisteis, went across tbe street to the hotel for lucb, Mrs. Criep remaining with ber husband. At 1:40 the pain reap peared. A messenger was sent tor the children. Tbey came rapid ly and juH in time to get some last glances cf recognition. Judge Crisp did not speik, dying within five minutes ot the last attack All of bis children were with him, and although they bad been warned by tbe physicians tbat death might come at any moment, when it did come it was tragic in its buddeu-nei-s. Governor Atkinson was his last vifitor, having called on Sunday, when be and tbe judge chatted lor n hour on current topics Judg Crisp was keenly interested in poli tics until tbe last be opposed fusion with the Populists and charged Gov ernor Atkinson to defeat it if he p ssibly could in Georgia. Judge Crisp was one ot the lead ers ol the silver movement in G or gia, and on tbat issue the Stale over vhelmingly indorsed bim for the UuHt-d States Senate to which be would bave been elected unanim ously by the legislature: There wouid bave been practically no opposition to bim for tbe Senate. His death at this time complicates tbe matter and will lead to a bitter fight tor the senatorship. Perhaps other offices will be involved, too. Judge Crisp declined to consent for re no mination to the House. The funeral arrangements have not been completed, but tbe body will lie in state at toe capitol to-mor row and an address will be deliver ed by G vovernor Atkinson and citizens of the congrecsiuoal district which he represented. rhe announcement of Judge Crisp's death was telegraphed to rhomas 13 Lieed, ot .Portland M.e., to sergeant at arms of tbe House of Representative, u being customary to notify the omcers of tbe death ot any membeis of tb6 House during recess in order tbat tbe proper con gressional escort may be appointed Up to a late hour to-night no res ponse bad been received trom either of these gentlemen, Many tele grams of sympathy were recived by Mrs Crip to-night from promin ent persons. becretary liamonl was one of tbe first to send a mes sage. At 6 o clock - tjroveroor Atkinson and some others met in conference and made arrangements fir the fun eral. At tbeir request the family consented to the remains lying at the State capitol. It was toe wish ot tbe citizens of Atlanta tbat the body be kent at the capitol under military guard over Sunday, bat she preferred to return to tbtir borne. At 10.30 tomorrow the G ivernor State, city and county officers, mem bers elect of tbe general Assemb'y, mtmbeis of tbe Atlant bar and pro mment citizens and mttary omcers will escoit the body from the sanl larium to tbe capitol in tbe rotunda of which tbe remains will be placed on a catafalque. Details of military will mount guard and the top of ihe casket will be removed and ihe cit izens will be given a last opportuni ty to look upon the face ot the dis lioguisbed dead, Eirly Sunday morning tbe body witb a largo es cort, will leave here for Americus going by way of Macon. Upon arriving there the rem iins will be placed in tbe Methodist cburcb and lie in Stae for two hours when General Clement A Evens will coo dust tbe last exerc'ses. Charles Frederick Crfcp.

Before tbe legislature could carry out its instruction to choose him as Georgia's next Sena tor be was removed from the scone of his labors, his triumphs and his prospects, wbicn were exceedingly rich io promise. In 1883 Judge Crisp, when he n tered Congress, was almost entirely unknown outside of bis own State and hid not been prominent in poH ti ' . .. . iics tuere. iin reputation as a pub- io man was yet to be made and tbe way to it threw" him into competis tion with we'l-equipped, expeiienced and amhiiious men trom every State ol the Union. He avoided the miss takes which are fatal to tbe influs ence and reputation of congressional novitiates. JNot even in his most complete triumphs in the house ot representives d:d bis excellent judg ment and his self-control stand him in belter stead than in the early stages of his career in Congress. He became Speaker of tbe II ue ight years alter be entered it, be cause be bad walked steadily where so many men of ability trip and fall --on the threshold of congressional ire. iiis first appearance in debate impressed tbe bouse because be had tbe dibcretion to wait for an oppor tune occasion before be put himself forward. Upon tbe foundation for influence tbus well laid he builded rapidly but always with intellig- nt care. From the first he realized that the ife of a representative in Congress is not a sinecure. He appreciated its requirements for patient and ar duous labor, and met tbem witb a zeal and industry not often quali fied. Ah a result be soon became thoroughly acquainted with the ma chinery and me hods ot Federal legislation; he quickly learned bow to ue opportunities in a body whose hurly-burly is more than apt to pro. 7oke indiscretion. The leaders of bis party readily recognized in bim a sate man and soon began to rely upon him for aid at critical moments His lieutenancy was brief f r be rapidly won a place among the cap. tans of legislation, and by bis uperb leadership in the cs-aulis upon Speaker Reed's arbitrary and outrageous assumptions in the fifty first Congress won for himself the speakership in the fifiyseoond over three distinguished competitors, all of whom were acknowledged lead" ers in the bouse before ho entered it. As Speaker for two terms be dis tinguished himself greatly and con trolled an olten turbuleut assembly as much by bis unfailing equilibri um of temper as by his quick nes- in determining upon bis course and bis firmness in pursuing it. It is easy to understand why tbe o he- Demo cratic leaders in the fift) -third Con gress urged bim not to give up tbe gavel and accept the proffered sena torship. I hey knew tbe value of bis services where be was, and un derstood how difficult would be the task of filling his place. Much oi the success ot Judge Crisp was undoubtedly due to his pleasant disposition and his fascin ating address. He won the good will of men wonderfully soon, and the oharm of bis personality was felt whether be moved among bis col leagues in Congress or addressed multitudes from tbe hustings. He had a way of getting close to people which many a politician endeavors to acquire, but which seemed entire ly natural with him. 1 bough be could not bo accused of partiality to his political opponents while he wielded tbe speaker's gavel, and though he rapped tbem severe ly in debate: probably no Democrat in Congress bad so many personal friends as be could count on tbe lie publican side of tbe bouse, and at the same time his popularsty among bis own party associates was excep tionally great. Tbis was creditable to him but what honors bim far m to is tbe fact that be served thirteen years in Congress, the greater part of tbe time as one ot tbe moat conspicuous of it; members, and not one word ot accusation was ever uttered against him, though the air which envelopes the capital is often heavy wr.b tbe breath of dis'raction. Not one shad ow of suspicion rests on h s fair of ficial record. It is a heritage of which bis children may justly be proud and which tbe people of his Slate will remember and cherish.
