While gratefully accepting q second nomina-

thoughts naturally revert TO the record and
achievements of that party since the memorable
Dayton convention. The electors of Ohio have
ether reasons for voting with us this year be-
sides such as solely affect this state. The battle
before us is essentially national one because
the Republicans OF Ohio have identified
themselves with every phase OF the iniqui-

the Fiity-lirst congress The Republican party
appears as a defender of that al btrary disregard
the the minority's rights which disgraced the
last House OF Representatives. liz upholds the
fraudulent unssating of lawfully elected mem

the other high-handed outrages by which that
party sought TO perpstuate its power against the
will OF the people. 1t represents the reckless
extravaganza and astounding prohigacy which
