Dissatisfied Democrats plan an independent ticket after spurning the Kansas City platform and William Jennings Bryan at a Conway convention. They align with the State Economic League and call for government purchase of coal beds and rail and telegraph facilities. They seek Roosevelt to call an extra Congress session and Knox to pursue anti trust actions against coal firms. The silver faction aims to defeat the regular Democratic ticket.
