Smith, oi the X Rays, charges that we attended the meeting of the Free Silver Republicans and Populists and took patt in the discussions and apparently endorsed what wcs done only to leave the meeting and knife the whole proposition. It is true we attended the meeting in question; that we did take part in the discussion. To what extent we "appeared to endorse it we do not know, but we do know that we refused to act on the committee that was appointed on that day to further the scheme of fusing with the Free Silver Republicans. He then tries to show inconsistency on our part by citing the fact that we endorsed Bryan two years ago prior to the nomination by the Populist convention. That is quite true. But we simply accepted the inevitable. We knew just as well what the Populists would do at St. Louis then as we did afterwards aad we only aimed to make the best of it. We aim to learn a little as we get older. Among other things that we have learned is that W. J.
