Columbus, O.. Oct. 2.-The decision Of
the republican managers to rearrangs Gov.
McKinley's dates 90 as to give his own
state the benefit of his limited tariff wis
dom, Indicates condision that 10 rsooR-
nized with republican regret and misRiy-
ing. II has been the custom in presiden-
tial years to claim the state as safe beyond
the possibility of doubt, but never be-
fore were there SO many causes that mill
tate against the prospects of the party in
safe" Ohio, which is from this time until
Nov. to be treated as debatabls ground.
This situation is confessed by Secretary
Foster, Senator Sherman and Gov. McKin-
ley, and the state committee, while the
Foraker retainers and tho league smile in
qniet corners. II WAS decided this week to
cancel q large number of dates in order to
keep Sherman and Mckinley in Ohio the
greater part of the time. Further il WAS
arranged for series of simultaneous ora
torioal efforts, and various sections of the
state were selected for this con-
certed onslaught. Sherman is
billed for twenty speeches in

the former statements that the state 10

man Dick, who is an experiment in state
politics. but creation of Sherman and
Hahn, has adopted the method of consult
ing with the candidates for congress as ia
WHOM they desire to address them, and il
is interesting to note that so far Foraker
has not had definite assignment except
that given him by the league. whose head
he is. There was fat attempt to show
him loyal after his villainous harangue
and vile personal abuse of Cleveland, but
republicans who insist that the campaign
be fought upon issues and not personalities
were only disgusted and convinced that the
less Foraker ia called upon the better viii
the Harrison chances be. Foraker's har
rang1e was an Indication to the
committee that if called upon he
would persistently vent his spleen and
recall the famous rebel flag bunoombe
and other selt-g orifying incidents and
it was thought best to take him out OF
the campaign unless he will consent to dis

| away fioni Harrison by kllingsgate di-
reoted toward Cleveland. Col. w. A. Tay
lor. the democratic candidate for secretary
of state, is convinced that he has a fRhtins
chance and so advised the committee this
week. His belief has strengthened the
democratic faith, and the committee went
to work at once with additional hs5 TO dis
tribute campaign literature. Then the re-
puhlicans DECIDED that it would be best tc
keep the orators at home and attempt nj
least, to carry the state for Harrison. The
democrats are taking hold with q hope, and
as Ohio is distinctly patronage state anu
neither Harrison nor Mckinley has done
his work in such q way as to deserve the
oommendation of those whose itching
palms are always outstretched, the result
cannot be fotetold.
