CAMPBELL OPENS HIS CAMPAIGN.

columbus Ohio, Sept. I7.-Govenor Campbell
opened the campaign at Sidney to-day. The Gov
ernors speech was devoted chiefly TO the tariff and
silver questions. He said that Mckinley had dodged
the former question from the opening of the campaign
ana had made the silver question paramount
He charged the Republican leaders of the
state with having made concentrated efforts
70 force down the tarin issue in the cam
pa'sn. He then took up the record OF
Major Mckinley on the silver question and charged
him with having voted for free coinage as far back as
1877. The freesver men had claimed Mckinley as
champion about the time Of the passage Of the Silver
Certificate act Of 1890 Concluding his remarks on
this subject Governor Campbell said:
