by the Republicans a few DAYS ago,
and who has some assurances of sup

remains the possibility that the Inde.

test a triangular one by naming a
separate ticket.
The platform adopted by the Dem.

national, state and municipal ques.
tions, dsnouncing the recent tariff
legislation and objecting to any inter
ference in local affairs by the state
legislature.

EXPLAINS POSITION
ON TARIFF DEBATE
Bryan Does Not Want 10 Embar.
raSS Democratic Party.

Lincoln. Neb., Oct. LIN explana-
tion of his position on the proposed
debate with Senator Bailey of Texas,
at Atlanta, Ga, W. J. Bryan address
ed letter to Clark Howell, editor Of
the Atlanta Constitution. The letter
reads as follows:
81 wired you that I would commu
nicate with you by letter my reasons
for believing debate inadyisable.
When joint meeting was suggested
at FL Paso, Tex, replied to the eff
feet that | am trying to aid In the
election of q Democratic majority In
the next congress; that to that end /
have suggested brief but specific
tariff plank which ask Democratic
candidates to accept, reject or amend,
and that, believing debate would
tend to turn attention from the issue
to individuals, would not consider
the proposition unless it came as a
personal request.
81 might add the further reason
that q debate between two Demo
Gratis would accentuate the tariff diff
ferences that have embarrassed our
party in congress, and give the Re
publican newspapers a chance dwell
upon Democratic dissensions instead
of deVoting their time to the contest
now being waged between the pro
gressive Republicans and ths stand
patters.
"A debate might be pleasing TO The
