Bryan, and Then Let the Demo-
cratic Convention Indorse the
Nomination-IseIief Expressed That
Mr.. Bryan VIII Aecede TO This
Plan.
Austin. Tex, Jan. 2S.-The Popuusts OF
Texas publicly announce that William J.
Bryan will accept the nomination of that
party for President If 1t is rendered him.
The following circular letter outlining
the plan of action for the coming cam
paign was to-day issued by Chairman j.
H. Foster, who claims to secure his in-
formation and the propositions outlined.
direct from the national headquarters.
The circular letter is addressed to all
county chairmen and reads as follows
Dear Sir: You are no doubt aware of
the fact that If the Bryan Democracy,
when they meet in national convention,
reaffirm the Chicago platform Of 1896 with
a direct legislation plank as an issue, AMI
it seems probable that they will and nom
mate William j. Bryan and some ire
proachable Southern man, that such act on
will be the death of our party Should the
Democracy do this, it win be only repa-
tition of their policy, plans. and Ike their
advocacy of 16 to !, be short-ived. In
view of such action on the part of this
newborn Democracy, 1t is the duty of
every Populist who loves the principles he
advocates to lend his aid to thwart the
destruction of his party.
"A plan mas been suggested aud IS being
discussed all over the nation. The details
of this plan are, in part:
THAT when our National Convention
assemblies that it reaffirm the Omaha plat
form. with direct legislation as the para
mount issue nominate William j. Bryan
(and the assurance has been given by Mr..
BrVan's friends that he will accept tho
nomination. and some Southern Populist-
that the free silver Republicans will in
dorse the platform and its candidates
that Mr.. Bryan's friends will go before
the National Democratic Convention with
demand for the Endorsement of the ac-
ton of the Populst Convention, and 1t Is
argued that they win not refuse. In the
event that they do so, Mr., Bryan may re-
fuse the nomination at the hands of the
Democracy. This action of itself will, by
the Democrats, signal their utter defeat
and also that of the Populists, but defeat
will lay at the door of the Democrats

went out he was shadowed by Detective
George Koch The officer finally asked
the suspect to go to the station and eX-
plain himself. The man drew pistol ana
pointed it at the officers heart but as he
did SO, Koch flashed his own pistol and
fired four shots. Three took effect and
the man fen dead
