Tellers Plans to Bolt Republicans in Independent Bid
New York June 11 Senator Teller and allies in Colorado and other states plan to bolt the Republican convention to back a free silver platform. They aim to skip the GOP ticket and form an independent group to push Teller for president, drawing in Democrats wary of the gold standard and hoping to swing votes in November. The maneuver risks fracturing the party and could reshape the slate in key midwestern states.
