A political story that comes from Gin
cinnati and finds some credence here has
1t that Congressman Bellamy Storer Is I'm
the race for the United States senatorship
to succeed Senator Brice t.t '.' -
1t is generally conceded that the sena-
torial race, IL there is one on the republican
side next year, will be between Foraker
and Mckinley.
A dispatch from Massllon states that J.
s. CoAey, the original commonwealth. is
having some difficulty in opening the pecu-
liar kind of congressional campaign he
announced his intention to conduct
month ago. Coxey's resources have be-
come so tar reduced that he is not able to
supply the horses necessary to draw his
wagons. and the farmers who promised to
furnish them for the sake of the cause
find that they need all their horses now to
do the fall blowing.
In the primary elections to select dele
gates to the democratic state convention,
now being held over the state, the Camp
bell men seem to be generally winning
victories where there Is a square fight be-
tween the Campbell and Brice forces.
With the near approach Of the demo-
cratic state convention a number of can
didates for the nominations are announced.
Two new men have come out for the
nomination for member of the state board
of public works. These are ELI NJ Tissan-
der Of Brown county and John Moore of
Monroe county. Tissander has just retired
from the office OF treasurer Of his county.
and Moore represents his county at present
In the general assembly. For secretary
of state the names of three men are men,
toned: These are John w. Washburne
Hamilton county and State Senator w. c.
Gear of Wyandot county.
For the nomination for supreme Judge
but one name has been mentioned so far.
That Is A. ID. Marsh of Mercer county.
He was once the speaker of the Ohio house
Of representatives. For the other place on
the ticket commissioner of common
w. Knott OF Mansfield and John Laycock
of Cincinnati. They are both teachers.
The democrats of the twentieth district
have led of in the policy that it was pre-
dicted they would adopt in The Star last
month in all the hopelessly republican
districts by indorsing the populist candi-
date-Mr. Harrington. This is the only
way the defeat Of Mr.. Beach. the republi-
can candidate. could be accomplished. 1t
leaves the district In doubt.
Tom johnson in the twenty-first district
Is in an open fight with the democratic
organ, the Cleveland Plaindealer. The
Plaindealer has opposed Its party on 50
many questions for the last four years that
it is easy for Johnson to get meetings to
,1enounce and repudiate the Plaindealer.
1t Is the general opinion that johnson will
be returned to Congress.
Mr.. Cultivate is making a vigorous cam
paign. His opporferf is ex-Attorney Cen

pended by the government here, was made
