land Millionaire.


In Hannaism. This fat and vulgar
boss has tramplcd out all opposition
in his own party, and all the camp fol-
lowers and purchasable commodity
have gathered around his standard
Like the Epheslans of old they are cry
ing with hands outstretchcd toward
theshail "Great Is Hammer, who made
Mckinley" Hanna sent his agents to
Columbus the other day to tell the Re-
publican central committee what he
wanted done, and 1t was done. One OF
the purchased and paid boiler plate
dailies among other things contained
the following informatlon
THE campaign this fall Major Dick
says. will be the most elaborate in or
ganization and the greatest in public
meetings ever conducted in Ohio. The
speaking campaign of last fall marked
an epoch In campaigning in Ohio, but
the campaign soon to begin will sur
pass this by several points, both In
the number of meetings, and, notwith-
standing the fact that there Is no ma
tional speakers bureau to draw from,
in the distinction of the speakers. A
partial hist OF Republicans of national
fame who have rendered their services
In the Ohio campaign were furnished
by Major Dick and Chairman Daugh-
erty OF the state central committee
from memory last night, and while the
list on this account is incomplete, still
II is sufficient to make the falls cam
paign the most memorable in the his
tory of the state. All Mr.. Hanna's col
leagues in the house and senate have
been, unusually generous In rendering
their services to him and Governor
Bushnell. Those who we're recalled by
Major Dick and Mr.. Daugherty were
Senator ]. c. Burrows of Michigan,
Senator w. b. Allison of Iowa, Senator
John NJ. Thurston Of Nebraska, Sena-
tor S. NJ. Cullom of Illinois, Senator
W. p. Frye of Maine, Senator w. e.
Mascr of Illinois, Senator C. w. Fair
banks of Indiana, Speaker Thomas B.
Reed of Maine. Congressman Nelson
NJ Dingley of Maine, chairman of the
ways and means committee and author
of the new Dingley tariff bill; Con-
gresham John M. Dalzell of Pennsyl-
vania, Congressman Joseph G. Cannon
of Illinois, Congressman Serene e.
Payne OF New York, a member of the
ways and means committee; Congress-
man David Henderson OF Iowa, Con-
gTessman j. p. Dolliver OF Iowa, Sena-
tors Foraker and Hanna, Governor
Bushnell and Congressman Grosvenor
and host OF other prominent Repub-
licans of Ohio and other states will
reinforce this galaxy of eminent ora
tors and statesmen.
Naturally 1t will require slIillful
management of the speakers bureau to
pilot these gentlemen through cam
paign Of the magnitude contemplated
by the executive officers, and 1t will
be provided. The speakers bureau will
be in charge Of Hon. Henry Hedges of
Mansfield and Colonel T. r. Fletcher
of Columbus, who were Jointly In
charge of the speakers bureau OF the
national Republican campaign"
1t viii be noticed that while a man
named Nash was chosen as chairman
OF the executive committee, his mouth
had not been unlimbered for campaign
purposes, and Major" (O Dick said
what was what. Although this is a
state campaign, yet all the agchewers,
wind TANNERS and smoothbores that
can be hired, ccaxed or commanded
are TO be turned loose on Ohio like the
seventeen-yeaP locusts, and they are to
be quite as numerous and musical. The
people of Ohio can take notice Of the
approaching wind storm and take all
things movable and immovable in
doors But what are all OF these won
derful orators who are coming here
on Hanna's money going to talk about?
Prosperity and the gold standard?
A tariff for trusts?
Or what a great man your Uncle
Hanna is and what very small potato
the pigmy in the White House is?
Major CD Dick is not at all consider
ate of the feelings OF the hosts who
are. opposed 20 Hannaism, but by an
awful blast upon his bugle he fills them
with CONSERVATION and fear and puts
all the opposition to flight with his bad
breath before the battle begins. We
tremble when we contemplate the COM
ing Of this army of wind TANNERS, but
every war has its compensation, os
such men as Thomas Bumble Bee Reed
and Bob Ingersoll only talk for spot
cash With their coming we may ex-
pect prosperity and an increase in the
price OF wind, although there is moth
ing in the Dingley tariff for trusts to
protect Ohio from the pauper orators
of other states. The Democrats, Silver
Republicans and Populists have no
money to import foreign talent In this
contest There are enough champions
of the cause OF free silver in Ohio TO
take up this gauntlet and drive the
imported and paid stumpers of Hanna
out of the state. Where are the Repub-
lican, orators In Ohio? Are they to be
ignored, or won't Hanna pay them the
price? Let no Republican who works
for Hanna this year move an inch
until he is paid and paid well. If
Hanna Is going to spend thousands OF
dollars on imported speakers, let him
spend his money to build up our home
Industries in Ohio and insure the i'm
mediate return OF prosperity by paying
out los. eos and SOS in gold to the
ward heelers and workers.
