vincent SMtCU, where Inc convention
was held, were agrccably surprised by
the sight that met their eyes.
The large hall, capable of seating 5000
people, was bower of beauty.
At 3 o'clock Judge l.. w. King, chair
man of the outgoing state central com
mittcc, raped the convention to order
and introduced Rev. c. S. Pomcroy, pas
tor of the Second Presbyterian church
of Cleveland, who opened the proceed
ings with n prayer of considerable
length.
Judge l.. w, King, in introducing the
temporary chairman, made an eloquent
and elegant speech, which was frc-
qucntly and enthusiastically applaudcd.
1t was the better for being entirely ex-
tcmporancous.
After his remarks Judge King intro
duccd Charles p. Griffin, of Toledo, the
temporary chairman of the convention.
Mr.. Griffin, who is the intellectual giant
OF the general assembly, was cnthusias-
tically applauded, and addressed the as
.scmblage
During the course of Mr.. GrifIins
speech he was again and again APP
plaudcd. The references to Mckinley
and Foraker were made the occasion of
perfect ovations, and all the names of
the republican leaders were signals for
-outbursts of enthusiasm. After the
speech announcement was made of the
vice presidents assistant secretaries
and committees selected at the district
meetings, and II. Clay DrinlIle of Fair
field county, and Calvin w. Reynolds, of
Lawrence county, were called forward
to act as assistant secretaries in the work
of the temporary organization.
The agreeable announcement was
made that the Cleveland Base Ball club
had extended an invitation to all the
delegates to attend the game in the
afternoon, and the convention was in a
hurry to get away. The reading of
the numerous names was consuming a
great deal of time, and Harry M.
Daughcrty, member of the legislature
from Faycttc county, made hit by
moving that the reading be suspended
and the convention referred to
the evening papers for further
particulars. When two things were to
be done, and there was time for but one,
ne said, the more important matter
should be attended to, and the baseball
game was unquestionably the more inn
portant. This raised laugh, and his
motion prevailed. He then moved that
the convention adjourn to 10 a. m.
to-day, and, almost before the chair
announced that the motion was carried,
the hall had been cleared. The dele
gates repaired to the ITollenden, where
to talr tn hp
ball grounds.
