NI'kINLEI CHOSEN:
Ohio's Governor Will BE the Permanent
presidin. Officer.


Gov. Mckinley this year Will not be in
the position which Republicans have
grown to expect to see him hold IN national
conventions viz, that OF chairman 0. the
platform committee Tie reason is to be
found in the tact that he has n position OF
higher rank-permanent chairman-to
which he was elected at the meeting of the
committee on permanent organization last
evening. It was cut and dried affair
none of he members caring TO bring out
candidate against the tariff expert. Mr..
Mckinley was put III nomination, several
members made plimeutary speeches
and then lie was declared the choice oft
committee by acclamation. His sclectionis
due to the fact that he was conceded to be
q man eminently fair and while in favor of
the nomination Of President Harrison the
anita M nIstration forces had no objection
whatever TO him, and II was they who sug-
Cested his name. There was no GROUND on
which objection could be urged to him,
even il there wa i desire on the part OF
any ore To object. and thus there was
avoided another contest over the presiding
officer OF the convention. Mr.. Mckinley
is regarded as a good parliamentarlan-
His voice la, suffered somewhat from the
effects OF the severe campaigns through
which he has gone but he will doubtless
be able to make himself clearly audible TO
all present. The announcement will be
made al the meeting OF the convention to-
morrow The other details OF the organ
ization were then perfected, and the minor
temporary officers were confirmed in their
appointments
