Pat said to Mike: What do you think the populists ought to do at St Louis? Well, Pat, I do really think the populists should indorse him without comment. How the Virginians received the news of Bryan's nomination: There were Dick Bland men that thought that more populists would vote for Bland than any other man; others think Bryan being a younger man has been working more with the populists, and will gather a larger vote, while some of the populists thought that Teller was the man for them to have nominated, that all the free silver people would have united on him and taken the eake; some of the populists think the democrats are trying to force them to vote for Bryan or do without 16 to 1, others think that the democrats ought to divide the spoils of office with the different factions of the silver men, others think the nomination of Bryan will place McKinley in the chair without doubt.
