sRyAN's STATEMENT.
SsTs SOMEONE nas Placed HIN q an Ut-
teriy wfong Position.

Lincoln. Neb., June 2G.-Col. w. J.
Bryan dictated the following.
Any statement made by anybody
Ia regard 20 the campaign plans is
without foundation or authority. No
plans have been made by me or By
any one for me. and no plans will be
made until after the convention has
been held"
Mr. Bryan expects a number OF DO
lltical visitors during the week.
Asked whether ho could say any
thing In regard 10 the platform to be
adopted at Kansas city, Mr.. Bryan
said
No one. OF course, can say what
language will De used In setting forth
the party principles. But some idea
can DO obtained as 20 the general
tonor Of the platform from the plat
forms adopted IN the state conyon-
tlons As a large maIorlty OF dele
gates have been elected by conven-
tions which realhrmed the Chicago
pla'form It Is safe to assume that the
Kansas City platform will roafirm
the Chicago platform and will contain
nothing which can be construed Ms
surrender or modification OF the plat.
form on the old issues.
IN Is equally certain that there will
be a strong and definite plank against
The trusts. There IS also no doub,
that the plank against imperialism
viii be clear and explicit. MllltarIsm
will be denounced and sympathy OK
pressed Tor the Beers. This much is
evident from what has already taken
place"
You have refused 10 discuss tho
vice presidency heretofore. Mr.. Bryan.
Is there any truth In the rumors that
vice president will be chosen whose
views on the money question will be
attractive 10 those who opposed the
ticket Ia 1882"
III Is true that / have r fused 10
discuss the vice presidency" replied
Mr. Bryan. and / do not care TO do
so low. further than TO say that | as
sumo the candidate nominated for
vice president viii be In harmony
With the platform. The vice president
not only presldes over the senate while
the president Is alive. but assumes the
oilice Of president in case OF the presl-
dents death, and II Is hardly probable
that delegates 20 a national conyen-
tlon would write platform and then
select for either place on u ticket a
man who would repudate the plat
form No man worthy to be consld-
cred for such an Office would accent
nomination upon a platform repug-
nant 10 his views on any important
issue. la any campaign men support
ticket without approving all OF the
platform. but no one can defend n
platform unless he believes In A. Many
tariff reform gold Democrats support
ed tho Republican ticket four years
ago. although they dlssonted from tho
protection plank But the Republican
convention would not have nominated
Ia tariff reformer upon n protection
platform. There Is sometimes a Joint
debate between candidates on oppos-
ing tickets but not between candidates
