elany true OF CHAIRMAN Gowdy OF the state

communication WIN the Ohlo men VINO nave
| charge or the Mckinley campaign. 1t is a
Iact, however, that some OF the friends OF
harrison 90 not beheVe that Mckinley should
| De nominated They are for Allison. Per-
Eaps win some OF them there Is resentment
toward mckinley over his alleged d1sloyalty
toward Harrison IN lS92 at Minneapolis. That
there was an attempt to nominate Mckinley
al that time after the manner OF the nomina-
tion of Garfield in 1880 there is no doubt and
the only question is as to whether Mckinley
corscientiously opposed the movement. The
stronger reason for the opposition to his
nomination this year. however, is the doubt
as to his availability. While the younger
and more enthusiastic republicans are hur
rahng for him, some of the older and more
experienced party leaders foresee what the
party will have to contend with in the event
of his nomination While there is no dis
cussion now of the proposition to restore the
Mckinley law, the democrats would confront
the party with the question on every occas-
ion 1t would be pointed out that repub-
licans in congress have voted against some
of the Mckinley tariff provisions since the
measure bearing his name became a law.
"If the republican speakers and the repub-
lican press should be constantly called upon
to repudiate either the candidate or the Nc
Kinley law they would find themselves on
the defensive and would be unable to conduct
a campaign on the plan of an enthusiastic
rally, such as the Younger men look forward
to in the event of this nomination.
"a few days ago the Indiananolis Journal
contained a significant editorial in which II
was pointed out that Mr.. Mckinley is NOT
the logical candidate of the marty this YEAR
The Journal showed that he could he tbe
Logical candidate only in tba event tbe nartv
