Grosvenor, temporary pres esident, on taking
the chair, spoke half an hour, and reviewed
the history of the parties. Referring to the
Scott law he said:
"The Republican party stands by ii as
measure Of revenue and not only tax upon
a traffic that is injurious to the best interests
of the state, but measure Of restriction and
regulation. The party's record in
civil service reform demands the
support of the independent men of
the country. The party is the sole champion
of the protection of American industry. If
the American people confer the power again
upon the Republican party it viii see to it
that no means be left untried to strike down
the organized and criminal purposes of the
south to suppress the freedom in thought and
action in political matters. We enter the
great fight in Ohio, and fight we must to win,
or the Republican party of the country must
go to the wall. We must carry Ohio in Oc-
tober or the Democrats will carry the coun-
try in November Inactivity and general
apathy must cease in Ohio. Carping, criti-
csm, sneering at Ohio, aud Ohio men,
must cease outside of Ohio. Republicans
that occupy places of power must recognize
that we hold the key to the fortress. and if We
lose it in October, the hordes Of Goths
and the Democratic party will overwhem
the garrison and drive outth opponents. We
will 90 to Chicago to nominate the best
men for the emergency, but we do not for
get, and our brethren in the southern states
must not forget, that Ohio is under all
circumstances a close and doubt
ful state The confict in Octo-
Der makes the Ohio the battle ground
of the year, and the people of the Re
publican party of other states must lay aside
personal considerations, and the fashion Of
carping at and crticizing the Republicans Of
Ohio, and they must plan the battle, in any
event, so as to make the victory in Ohio, not
only possible, but Absolutely certain. The
convention at Ceicago can do this, or it can
organize defeat by a blunder We viii go to
Chicago with our warm affections going out
20 the men who stood with US in other days,
in the great battles which we have fought.
but we will go there, promising and pledging,
that upon whose ever the great honor shall
be conferred to carry the Republican banner
in the coming contest, shall, at once and for
ever, be the standard bearer of Ohio; and let
him be who he may, If he come OF the free
will of these Republicans Of Ohio, my word
for it, he viii carry the banner to victory"
The remainder of the session was occupied
work of nominating state ticket and elect
ing delegates to the Chicago convention.
During tue speech Of General Groyesnor,
he mentioned Sherman's name, which caused
loud cheering Toward the close, he referred
to the necessity of nominating presidential
candidate who can carry Ohio, whereupon a
