rated through the immense building, while Mr..
Foraker bowed smilngly 90 the compliment.
"Gentlemen OF the convention" he said, ~ hayo
now a most pleasing duty TO perform This con-
test upon which we are about 10 enter Is to be in
some respects OF unusual character. While 10 Is
10 be hoped that we are not 20 be called upon TO
confront greater number Of enemies In the
aggregate, yet surely IL Is known that we are 70
be compelled TO contend against a greater va
riety than ever before.
THE THIRD PARTY DANGER.
Z" In the first place, we must fight that time
honored enemy, the Democratic party, which II
would appear that even the devil could not kill
tapplausel; and, in the next place, nobody yet
knows how many third parties lLaughter.] We
do know, however,, that the political shibboleth
OF each and every one OF those political orRani-
cations will be anything 10 beat the Republican
party. tLaughter.l Not only is the governor
ship OF the great State Of Ohio at stake, but this
contest involves more than the gOvernOrship,
more than the General Assembly, more than the
public institutions. IL reaches into national
politics. A United States senator will depend
upon its result; and more important still than
all this, II will determine whether this great
State of Ohio is 70 go into the next national con-
test Of 1892 at the head Of the Republican or at
the head Of the Democratic column. lApplause.l
CONFIDENT or VICTORY ~
1--WE shall win this fight [applausel, but we must
not be content with simply winning II, we must
win it triumphantly Lapplausel, decisively, over
whelmngly [cheersl, and 20 that end We must
select for our standard-bearer that man who Of
all others can most surely command our un-
divided strength. [Applause.l We must have rs
our leader ht representative OF our views with
respect to every living Issue, who in his record
and his personality Is the besttypewe have OF the
illustrious achievements and moral grandeur OF
Republicanism. (Cheers.l He must be more
even than that He must have sure place In
the confidence and in the affections OF the Re
publicans Of Ohio. Such leader we have II Is
not my privilege 10 point him out. IL Is no mans
privilege 10 point him out That has been al
a., Utru arnn have
turned In one direction.
MKISLEY THE MAN.
zone man there "a who, measured by the ox-
igences Of this occasion, stands full head and
shoulders above all his comrades, and that man
Is William Mckinley. prolonged cheers ana
applausel There are many reasons why he
should be nominated. In the first place every
body knows him. [Laughter.l lie does not

publican in Ohio not only knows him, but what
Is better every Republican IN Ohio loves him.
r Good good '-applause.l That Is not all.

of patriotic conviction, and time VIII JUSTIFY this
conviction. GCheersl No heppnncan ,Snit GahuIf ~
