Harvey in an interview here TO-DAY
said:
my plan is to combine the silver
forces of the United States 4 am try
ing to combine the Democrats SILVER
Republicans and POpulists, and have
suggested the Following plan 70 the
leaders of the parties,
For president on the Democratic
ticket. Silver Dick Bland of Missou-
ri. If elected give him the appoint
ment of one cabinet officer only, sec
rotary of state. Let the Democrats In
dorse the Populist nominee for wee
president on the POpulist ticket, Seua-
tor Marion Butler of North Carolina
Let the POpulists indOrse the Demo
cratic nominee for president Let MT
Butler if elected dictate the appoint
ment Of secretary of the Interior sec
retary of agriculture, secretary oI war
and secretary of the navy COncede 10
the silver Republicans three eaplneC
positions. Senator Teller of Colorado,
Secretary of the traasury5 Judge Cald-
well of the United states circuit court
attorney general. and Mayor Elngree
of Detroit, postmaster general
s.The silver cause is desperate and
we can't beat Mckinley without We
combine as Il have indicated j have
suggested the plan to Altgeld, Bland
and other leaders. but it has not been
made public yet i tell the Democrats
not to make their platform too Demo
cratic. They cannot win as Demo-
Gratis. but as a combined Democratic,
POpuiist and silver Republican 1 am
in favor of Bland for president, be-
cause his name is a platform i'm itself,
just as McKinley's name is q whole
platform.
.'The intention of our forefathers in
establishing our electoral system was
that the electors should be elected as
they are now and that they should
then meet and after discussion vote for
whom they wished. There is no law
compelling an eiector to vote for any
man. 1T is simply custom Republican
electors vote for the man at the head
of the ticket and the Democrats do the
same
s'Now I want to tell you if the Demo
Gratis. POpulists and free silver Itepub-
Hcans do not get together as have in
dicated they VIII ultimately combine IN
the electoral college. For instance, If
straight Democratic electors are elect
ed in the south, silver Republican
electors in Colorado and Nevada, and
POpuhst electors in North Carolina and
Kansas. these electors viii unite when
they meet next winter and vote solid
~ for such men as Bland and Butler.
The plan I suggest of dividing cabinet
officers among these parties and of the
distribution Of cabinet officers will
take care of eight states. Pingree can
carry Michigan. Teller half q dozen
western states and Caldwell can carry
Iowa and the southwest There are
I 10 600 Republicans in Iowa who want
to vote for Caldwell There are eight
cabinet positions and their distribution
in this way beforehand would carry
eight doubtful states for silver"
