KANSAS City, July s--If the twenty dele
gates from Kansas could have things just as
they want them there would be no specific
declaration for 10 to / In the platform and the
candidate for Vice-President would be David
Bennett Hill. DR.. &. W. Brandenburg. OF
Frankfort, Kan, who IL a delegate-at-larGe.
said this morning that all OF the delegation
wanted Hill II they could have him and hall OF
them wanted him anyway.
But" continued DR.. Brandenburg. we
know perfectly we'll that Mr.. Hill will not be
a candidate. ] had talk with him this morn
ing and he said the thing was entirely out OF
the question. With MIR. Hill out OF the field
IL IL a little uncertain now just how We Will
cast our vote. We have the unit rule, but
probably we will not abide by 1t on the first
ballot 1t is likely that one-half Of our votes
will be cast for Towne and the other half for
Carter Harrison. We feel that out OF con-
sideraton for the Kansas Silver Republicans
We should give at least complimentary vote
TO Towne.
"Towne, however, Is by no means the man
We want We would hardly cast vote for
him II we thought It would result In his nomi-
nation On the other hand, to please the Silver
Republicans, If we feel sure when we get In
the convention that there Is no chance OF his
nomination, we might, In the first ballot, cast
our entire twenty votes for him. Our real
choice lies between Carter Harrison or Shively
Probably We will cast our vote for one Of these
two, the one who shows the most strength at
the outset
