Bryan's Weaver Vote.
Richmond Dispatch.

Richmond Dispatch.
At the Academy of Music meeting
Wednesday night, Governor O'Farrall,
in his address said of Mr.. Bryan:
"But when other men, acting upon
their convictions, refuse to support him
he and many of his followers cry Bolt
er, Boltern and he declares that no
Democrat who dares not to support
him shall eyer come back into the par
ty. Pray tell me who clothed him with
Imperial authority? When did he get
back into the rear rank of the Demo
cratic party? The last that was heard
of his political affiliations before he was
nominated at Chicago he was in the
Populist camp voting for Weaver, the
Populist candidate Tor President"
This charge has peen made by other
boilers and the Republicans dozen
times, and as often answered. To set
tie it finally and officially, the Dispatch
telegraphed yesterday to the chairman
of the Democratic Congressional Cam
paign Committee, and received the fol-
lowing answer:
Washington, D. c., Sept "a, '96.
To Editor Dispatch
I have submitted your telegram OF
to-day, requesting me to explain why
Mr.. Bryan voted for Weaver in 1892,
to Senator German, who was member
of the Democratic Campaign Commit
tee in 1892. He says that the Nation
al Committee, of which Mr.. William
G. Harrlty was chairman, with Mr..
Don NJ. Dickinson chairman of the
Campaign Committee, determined to
request all the Democrats in Nebraska
and the States west thereof to unite with
the Weaver people in carrying these
States so as to prevent Harrison from
receiving electoral votes in Nebraska,
Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Oregon,
Nevada, and California, and as rule
the Democrats followed the request of
the Democratic National Committee
In addition to this the New York
World made an appeal for special SUI
prescription to carry out the plan OF
campaign determined on by the Dem
Ocratic Committee. Therefore, whatev-
er Mr.. Bryan OF any other Democrat
did in the support OF Weaver was at
the request of the National Democratic
Committee.
CHARLES J. FAULKNER,
Chairman.
The difference between Mr.. Bryan
ana the boilers, as will be seen from
the above telegram, is that in obedience
to the request OF the highest Democrat
ic party authority he voted for Weaver
IN order to elect Democratic Presi-
dent, while the boilers are voting Tor
Palmer In order to elect Republican
President. We may also note differ
ence between the President and the
next PresldeI1t-while Bryan bolted to
elect Cleveland, Cleveland has bolted
to defeat Bryan.
