M'KINLI1Y DESERVES PRAISE
aside from this important measure, the
people Of Ohio should bear in mind that
one of the most eminent citizens of the
State is now President of the United States
He is especially entitled to your kind and
cOnsiderate favor and deserves praise for
the careful selection and appointment Of
officers Of the United States. There has been
no abrupt haste in making changes and
while, from the nature Of things. he could
not appoint all who applied for Office, yet
the changes he did make met with and de-
served the approval of the Republican
party. 1t Is impossible for any executive
officer charged with the duty OF appoint

be disappointed, but they will all coneede
that they have had a fair hearing, for no
President could nave given applicants more
kindly and patient attention, nor could any
President have felt more keenly his inabil-
tty to comply with the wishes of his friends.

great parties. 1t may be that the benefits OF
protection will be so apparent that the
South, now already becoming manufac~
turing community, and tire West, filled with
mineral resources of untold value, may be
converted to the policy of protecting their
nascent industries by tariff laws And II
may be that the manufacturing industries
oppose duties on raw materials, mus re-
varsing their positions This would be a
change of position in the sections, cut the
issue would remain.
