and which he explained by saying,
.sMr. Bryan and myself agreed that
nothing should be said regarolns lIe

his conference with Mr.. Bryan was
very satisfactory, but in what particu-

The Towne Programme
The Towne managers say very en-
phatically that their man VIII WIN 1,,, the
vice presidential sweepstakes They
have reached a point where they oner
the Democrats certain terms ana lhslst
unon being heard Their programme is
this: -,
The men authorized to speak 1or the
Populists and silver Republicans VIII
ooree with Democratic managers that
both conventions shall go ahead and
! noninate Bryan on the first day, July
| 4 hut that no effort shall be made TO
, nonoinate a vice presidential candidate
/ Committees of conference shall be ap-
nointed with a view of agreeing upon
= candidate to unite the forces of the
three fusion parfisss If the Democratic
leaders do not - 90 this programme
the silver Ret1 Rn convention VIII
make no nomii of either presloen i
or vice president. but will appoint
committee of conference on both offices
to confer with like committees
of the Democrats and Pop
ulists. Some of the Democratic
! leaders have agreed that this is falr
proposition and have assured the
ToWne managers. that they VIII DO
what they can TO carry 1t out.
Another card the Towne men are
playing is that Bryan is for the MIME
sofa man. The position said to be taken
lby Mr.. Bryan is that the Democrats are
in honor bound to treat the allies OF
1896 fairly and with due consideration
He thinks that the Populists and silver
Republicans hold the balance Of power
in several states and when united with
the Democrats make those states sure
for the allied forces. Bryan does moi
want a double tailed ticket in this cam
paign and many of the leaders, snare
his wishes. There is possibility ina
the Populists and silver Republicans
, NAV object to Withdrawing the mar
; thew have nominated. So the Town'
: men think they are in very good po
: sition.
