Horse for Nomination for Governor.

dates Balloted For.

Columbus. o.. June es.-The prelimi-
nary work OF the democratic state con-
vention to-day showed IL was almost
unanimous for free silver and John II.
Mclean for senator, Lawrence T. Neal.
ex-Mayor Farley and other gold stand
ard democrats were active In the cho-
rus for Mclean, but they were con-
tending for different men for governor.
In the contest for governor John G.
Welty and Horace l.. Chapman showed
much strength to-day.
Previous to the district meetings at
$3.50 p, m. the fight against X. t. Hough
for governor became so bitter there was
much talk OF x-Congresssman D0no-
