Senator F. NJ. Simmons. Of North Caro-
lima. in an interview last night defended
the seventeen Democrats in Congress who
voted against free lumber. and who
were criticised for their vote by William
Jennings Bryan Senator Simmons de-
clared that Mr.. Bryan himself. while a
member Of Congress. had seen fit 10 vote
against a plank in the Democratic ns-
tional platform.
The North Carolina Senator prefaced
his remarks by saying that Mr.. Bryan's
opinion as 10 hts action is Of no special
concern 10 him: that he has acted upon
his own judgment and for the interest
OF his constituents. and that he was re-
spOnsible for them. and them alone.
Charges Inconsistency.
But" said Senator simmons. II have
reputation Of our national platform
declaration in 1892 In 1882 the Demo
cratic national convention nominated
Grover Cleveland for President and adopt
ed a platform declaring unequivocally FOR
the repeal OF the 10 per cent tax on state
banks.
"On June 6, 1894. a vote was taken IN
the House OF Representatives, OF which
William J. Bryan was member. upon
2 proposition TO repeal the tax OF 10 per
cent upon State banks. in accordance
with a platform declaration upon which
Mr.. Cleveland was elected There was
a yea and nay vote. and Mr. Bryan. 10
gether with few other Democrats. voted
with the Republicans, and the proposition
was defeated. On the day before this
vote was taken Mr. Bryan made speech
against this plank OF the Democratic plat
form. in which he said
1t has been stated that every Demo
crat is In duty bound 10 vote for the
repeal OF the State bank tax because of
the plank relating 70 that subject adopt
ed by tho last Democratic national con
ventiOn- a platform can only bind

Bound Cleveland Only.
He contended that this platform dec
laration bound Mr.. Cleveland because he
ran on the platform and accepted the
election; but he argued that fl did not
bind him. because he was nominated be-
fore the adoption Of the platform. and
because he repudiated il in his canvass.
and then he added:
II there IS any person IN my dis
trict who favors revival Of state bank
currency. am not aware OF g. In re-
cording my vote against the repeal OF
this tax I am expressing therefore the
opinion OF my constituents. and carrying
out my pledges as well as recording my
own best judgment
In other words. NIr. Bryan was 2 can
