would be for silver. and to that end
he urged that all classes of silver men.

as well as for free silver. how can MIR.

If Mr.. Bryan is to lead the forces next

and all other planks in the platform will
be subordinated to that II Mr.. Bryan
is to lead and his programme is carried
out. the next platform will be formulated

The total vote cast IN the state was
S72la, which IS about $500 less than
was cast last year for President, and
Shacklefords vote is 81 7s3 less than the
vote polled by Bryan in 1896. II will also
be observed that shackeford's plurality
over Bailey is only 1877. while the COM
bined vote against MIN exceeds the vote
