NOT SOLID FOR BRYAN.
Tis Is Jerry simpsons Remark
About Western Delegates.

st. Louis, July 20.-Ex-Gov. Lleweuyn
! anu ex-Congressnan Harris are with
TIE Kansas delegation. While Simpson
believes Bryan Will be nominated or In
durseI by the convention, he admits that
The vote will be close and the result in
| doubt until 1.-the roll is called.
The delegates from the West are not
all solid for Bryan as has been Claimed,
said he. The California delegation came
in this morning, AMI | find that they arc
rampant middle OF the road fellows, wis
want the convention to make an indie
pendent ticket, and insist that IL shall.
Bat out our way everybody who is 70:
Il gold standard Republican is for Bryan
and it doesn't make any difference whether
this convention indorses him or no.-thc
people are going to vote FOE him.
..ReDubli. ans in Kansas are leaving the
rarty by thousands. l addressed four
meetings in my district last week, big
ones, too, and at the close OF each, tCoS
a vote 10 satisfy myself OF the actual cen
dition of affairs. Not single man avowed
dates although there Were many present
who have supported them in the last. I
will be returned to Congress this year by
an overwhelming IL a-oIity."
Mr.. Keeney, rational organizer OF the
silver party, an old Californian, does not
agree with Mr.. Simpson regarding the
California delegation.
The lea;ierand spokesman, Tom Gator,
said he, lis rot here yet. He las been
East and won't Come until tomorrow.
You'll find that the Calirornians will vote
all right when they get into convention.
