chairman of the national peoples party COM
mittee, was asked today what he thought
would be the outcome of the two
meetings of The reformers, one at
Kanacs City and the other at Mem

different factions of the peoples party. He
said that If the populst editors who have
gone to Kanons City had gone to Memphis
there would not be the slightest doubt about
the true populists controlling the Memphis
meeting. l1e thought, however, that Wander
voort would certainly be defeated for re-
election, and said that If true populist was
elected president and man VINO did not rep
resent either of the extreme factions in the
party, he felt sure that both elements would
come together on the same man and have
but one organization. He said there were
number of men upon whom the elements
could unite, but that he thought, everything
considered Senator PETER was the best and
most available man for the position. He
