COLUMBUS (O), June 6.-The Repub-
lican State Convention reconvened at 10
O'Clock. Ex-Secretary Charles Foster,
Permanent Chairman, was greeted with
unusual demonstration. He recounted
the unparalleled prosperity of the coun-
try Oh the date of the National election in
1892. From the very day of Cleveland's s
election business confidence began to be
impaired When it was made manifest
that tariff reform was really the purpose
OF the party in power, thus attacking
every industry and the wages of every
laboring man, the crash came. Trusts
can get audiences and secure any legisla-
ton that they desire, while the farmer
and laborer are denied hearing.
Governor Mckinley was given an ova-
| ton on entering the hall. The Auditor of
State read the report on resolutions,
which was adopted with frequent ap-
plause. The platform indorses the
| ''honest, able and efficient administr3-
| tion'' OF Governor Mckinley; commends
John sherman; commends the Mckinley
tariff and 0enounceS the Wilson bill and
| the Senate substitute therefor; denounceS
the attempt 10 destroy the reciprocity
principle; demands protection for pro-
ducts OF the farm as well as the factory;
calls the Hawaiian policy Of Cleveland
"a national Disgrace; demands law to
prevent immigration OF criminals. pau
pers and anarchists, and commends the
Nicaragua Canal.
Planks IL and 10 are as follows: "We
favor bimetallism. Silver, a we'll as gold,
is one of the great products of the United
States. Its coinage and use as circulat-
ing medium should be steadily main
tanned and stoutly encouraged by the Ma
tional Government, and we advocate such
policy as will, by discrimination, legisla-
tion or otherwise, most speedily restore
to silver its rightful place as a money
metal.
I'VE denounce the avOwed purpose of
the Democratic leaders to restore the era
of "wild-cat' and ''red-dog" money by
repeating the prohibtory 10 per cent tax
on State bank issues. All money of what
ever kind should be under National and
not State control.'
S. Nj. Taylor was renominated for Sec
retary of State without opposition.
John a. Shaniek of Dayton was nomi
mated for Judge on the third ballot, over
r. j. Dykman, candidate for renomina-
ton.
John A. Price and C. E. Gross were re-
| nominated for Board of Public Works
and O. Il. Carson for School Commits
sioner.

OREGON ELECTION.
PORTLAND, June 6.-The count in the
city will not be finished before to-mor-
row. The Australian ballot law has
proved very cumbersome, both in voting
and counting. Partial returns have been
received from all but seven small
counties in the State, and later returns
only increase the Republican pluralities.
Lord will have at least $4,000 plurality,
and Rich 1900. INCOMPLETE returns from
all counties in the First Congressional
District give Hermann rep $500 plu-
rality. Ellis (Rep), in the Second Dis
trict, will have $500. the Republicans
have sixty-five out OF ninety members in
the Legislature, with large majority in
both houses.
KANSAS REPUBLICANS.
Topeka, June 6.-Major L. NJ. Morrill,
of Hiawatha was nominated for Governor

vention amid one of the widest scenes of
enthusiasm seen in Kansas for years. He
was nominated on the first ballot, receiv-
ing I'll votes. George w. Martin, the
only other candidate, received l27 votes.
w. A. Johnson was nominated for Asso-
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court by ac-
claInation. The Committee on Platform
will make its report in the morning. AT
1890 the convention adjourned until y
