"A Journal Press reporter saw Mr.. Ser
berger for moment and asked him
what the convention at St. Louis would
DO. Said he:
Bryan, the nominee of the Chicago
convention, is Populist; he has always
been elected in Nebraska by Popuhst
votes and l know not why the st. Louis
convention of our party should not en-
dorse him. The platform adopted by
the Chicago convention is pretty good
one, but it could have gone further than
it did and declared for some things which
it remained silent upon. 1: is true that
l am somewhat afraid of the Democratic
party management. There are too
many politicians vet lett in the party,
but it Is being purged of them, and the
Chicago convention did much to that
end. If the Democrates are at all fair in
their treatment OF the Peoples Party.
however, donot know any reason why
we shall not unite with them. The rub
will OF course come in the apportion
ment of the electoral vote. Minnesota
for instance in 1894 cast only some A.
900 Democratic votes while the vote tor
Sidney M. Owen was about twice as
heavy. We shall demand the disposal
of the electoral vote in accordance with
the vote cast for the respective candi-
dates of the parties. Minnesota Is en-
titled to nine electoral votes, and the
Peoples Party will insist on naming six
of these. 1.-THE Democrats concede them,
all well and good; but if they refuse we
shall decline to fuse with them. If they
