ulist, Gives His Reasons for Not sap
porting the Demo- Pop Ticket
Geo. W Rutherford, one of the pio-
neers of the populist party n Marion
county Ills. Bryan's home county, is
ont against Bryan.
Mr.. Rutherford has been populist
ever since that party was formed and
has quite following in his state as he
is well and favorahly known as Il man of
high integrity. When giving his reas-
ons for not voting for Bryan this year,
as he did in 1896, MI. Rutherford said
Il severed my connection with the re-
publican party solely on the question of
finance, voting for Peter Cooper in 1876.
Since then, till 1896, l unifor.nly voted,
when voting at All, for the presidential
candidate of The ,tIi.d party.
Il supported W. J. Bryan four years
ago because:
H. Be STOOD for bimetalism at the
ra'lo oi 4, to |, demanding in the plat
torrn t,Lat the standard silver dollar
shoul 1 ne a full legal tender, equal with
/ gold, for all debts public and private.
=. The democratic party, for the
ilTst time since the civil war, took the
affirmative side OF the live issues, and
we populists duped ourselves into the
belief that Bryan and his party really
meant it for. at east, as many years as
i've
''3, That party actually named a
candidate for president outside Of New
York q political heresy they had not
dared to be guilty of but twice in thirty
six years.
u cannot support Bryan and sterefis4
son TINS Year for various reasons, some,
of which are:
T. They stand for fortv-ive cent
silver dollar By, purposay = leaving Vino
out Of their silver blank At Kansas s"fitS CitS
the legal tender clause. their so-called
silver dollar shrinks TO It's bullion va11c
Mr.. Bryan said in acceptinp the
bopulist nominations: 1T is true that
the popullsts believe in an irredeemahle
Sreenback, while the democrats believe
IN a green back redeemabe in coin
