COLUMBUS, o., June 1.-THE capital of
the Buckeye State bubbled over with Re
publican enthusiasm to-day. The crowd
gathered here Is the largest that has
been drawn together by any political
State convention since war times
When the convention assembled this
morning the prominent leaders Of the
party were enthusiastically cheered.
Asa Bushnell of Springfield was selected
permanent chairman. The result is a sig
nal defeat for Senator John Sherman and
corresponding victory for Joseph b
Foraker. The latter had 1S members of
the committee out Of 81,
Sherman was not even placed in nomt-
nation, although It had ell along been
understood that In coming here as a
delegabe-at-lRrge be had expected to pre-
side over the gathering. When, however,
1t was proposed that Bushnell be chosen
| by acclamation the three objected with
one voice and protested against gag law.
One In particular said that he had been
sent to the convention as Sherman
man, and proposed to stand by his
eolofs. Finally Bushnell was selected by
o majority vote. This means that no
resolution endorsing John Sherman for
Senator will be submitted to-day. His
past course, however, may be approved
| by a perfunotory resolution.
Major William J. Mckinley was unani-
nously nominated for Governor
! After the nomination the convention
took recess and Major Mckinley re-
oeived his friends.
The remainder Of the ticket will be
completed this afternoon, and an open-air

The American soldiers' vaIor.

There is no doubt but the Academy
of Music Will be crowded to-morroI
afternoon to hear the Rev. William
J. Birmingham Of st. Paul's Catholic
Church lecture on the "Yalor OF the
American Soldier The lecture will be
under the auspices of the Grant Post
No. 1S, q. A. r., and the proceeds will
be applied to the relief fund OF the post.
Tho clergy will attend in a body, and
a choir composed OF the combined
choirs of the Catholic churches will
give o fine musical program. There
will be several musical selections by
the different choirs; among them will
be the Soldiers CHORUS from tho opera
OF Faust, sung by the choir OF the Sa-
cred Heart Church.
Additional interest attaches to this
lecture from the fact that this is the
first time clergyman OF this dsnomi
nation has ever addressed the organ
ization.
