WILLIAM NJ hlNLE1, JR.
Immediately after the close of Mr..
McKinleys stirring speech there were
loud cries of sherman, Sherman. 81
The grizzly, pater nal face and familiar
figure of the senior senator of Ohio
finally emerged from the crowd and
again the enthusiastic scenes were en-
acted.
Senator Sherman began by reviewing
the history and achieve ments of the re.
publican party, which, he declared was
the author of the sound financial sys
TEN of the country and the protector of
American industries. He eulogized
President Harrison's administration.
"The recent congress" he said, ''in con-
nection w ith President Harrison, has
dealt with all leading questions of the
time and with the most important ques-
tions with foreign nations. Every one
of these has either been settled or is in
the way of settlement"
The delegates howled down a propo-
sition to take recess although it was
long past the dinner hour, and the MAX
ing of the ticket was completed as fol-
lows:
For lieutenant governor, A. L. Harris,
of Preble county; auditor of state, Z. w.
Poe, of Wood; state treasurey. w. 7.
Cope. of Cuyahoga; attorney general,
j. X. Richards, of Lawrence; member
board of public works, Charles E.
Groce, of Richland; school commission
er, o. L. Carson, of Guernsey.
The nomination of Gen. Harris for
lieutenant governor was victory for
the Sherman contingent and was the re-
suit of still hunt. Up to the calling of
the roll Hon. Charles p. Griffin of To-
ledo, staunch Foraker man. seemed to
have the nomination by sufficient ma
jority. Maj. Mckinley and Senator
Sherman had lengthy private confer
ence yesterday afternoon. The cam
paign will be inaugurated without loss
OF time.
