POPULIST LEADERS

DESIRES TO SAVE SEWALL, ALSO
Kentucky POpulists File Objections
to Any Arrangement Whereby Their
Party Must Act rs Tail to the Demo.
cratic kite..PrOpOsitiOn OF Senator
Jones.

st. Louis. July 2O.-Although the
Bryan propaganda is receiving the sup
port of many of the Populist leaders.
the real work of advancing his interests
has been entrusted to Senator Jones, of
Democratic committee. 1t must be
said for Jones that he is engineering tn .
Bryan boom skilfully, and it is none the
less skilful because the Arkansas SEN
ator chooses to remain quietly in the
background. He has his hea iquarterS
at the Planters hotel. where he has
been receiving all morning certain of
the more prominent Populists who de-
sire Bryan's nomination by their con-
vention. The proposition which Jones
advances is this:
In return for Populist and silver Re-
publican support, one member Of each
party will be placed ON the Democratic
national executive committee. In states
where the Populists greatly outnumber
the Democrats. the Populists are to
control the nominations for congress
and the principal state offices. In other
states where the strength of the Demo-
Gratis is more uniform. u satisfactory
arrangement will be- made with respect
to the state and congressional tickets,
the purpose in each case being to secure
the election Of free silver representative
es to the house. The scheme finds great
favor with the Populists whom Jones
has consulted. The argument of the
latter is that If Bryan is not uominat-
ed, half Of the POpulists in the west es-
pecially, will vote for him and that the
effect of this will disrupt the party.
1t may he stated in this connection
that Jones insists strenuuusly that not
only shall Bryan be nominated, but
Sewall as we'll. At last nights confer
ence he insisted that these conditions
shall be risidly adhered to and he tiatly
refused to entertain any proposition
that looked only to the nomination of
Bryan and the reputation Of the Dem
ocratic nominee for the second place On
the ticket.

Chicago. July 20.-Henry c. Payne.
chief of the Republican Western cam
paign headquarters, to be established In
Chicago on Monday, was in the city
Saturday looking for a suitable office
place. The Auditorium and the Great
Northern hotels are most favored. but
Mr.. Payne made no promises in regard
to the headquarters. He went to Mil
waukee and will return Monday. when
he will meet Mark Hanna. c. q. Dawes.
w. T. Durbn, N. J. Jameson. and Cyrus
Leland. They will constitute the field
staff that is to conduct the battle for
the Republican ticket in the west, Mr..
Hanna's purpose being to go from
Cleveland to the New York headquar-
ters. as circumstances may dictate.
Mr.. Payne was asked what was the
Sist of the reports considered by the
conference just held in Cleveland.
THE trend of the reports was extra
ordinary in one respect" he answered.
Never in all my political experience
have such manifestations been made of
a keeen interest in the outcome so early
in the campaign. The interest Is gen.
eral, as the reports showed us. 1t is
confined to no section. l don't believe
there has been such an alertness Of
popular interest since the war years"
Did the reports show more interest
in the money question than you had eX
pected?"
Il cannot say that more interest
seems to be taken in the money question
than | had expected. but there is un-
duubtedly Il great deal of interest in it.
'Will the enlightenment of the people
on the money question be one of the
chief matters to be attended to by the
western headquarters"
'l'ndoubtedly; the people demand en-
lightenment. and for the next thirty or
sixty days. at any rate, they will get
plenty of light ON the subject. Not that
the tariff is to be sidetracked The peo-
pie are realizing that they made IA mis-
take when they departed from prutec-
tiun lines. and they are satisfied that a
ty. Then, right now. We may not pay
as much attention to ii as to the money
issue.
"On that issue we will make the fight
50 hot for our friends. the enemy, that
they will be glad when We open ON the
tariff issue. At no time will the tariff.
as AN issue, be ignored. not by any
means, but at the beginning of the cam
paign the money question will be dealt
with more elaborately."
