Thompson Leaves Republicans for Bryan in 1896
Norton lawyer H Thompson, a leading state figure, quit the Republican fold to back Bryan over currency policy. He now says the currency issue is settled, urges support for McKinley and Roosevelt, and cites national pride and economic stability as grounds for his switch. Other local notes include a Jasper County farmer weighing Bryan, a dental lecture in Wa Keeney, and a county superintendent update.
