on NATIONAL ISSUES

Columbus Ohio, Sept. % (SpeciaD.--Senator Hanna

satisfaction with the political situation In Ohio.
The Senator says the campaign will be conducted

.be conducted on any other line. The State Adj
minIstrat ton cannot be attacked. for we never had
four years Of better administration OF public affairs
than under Governor Bushnell"
Referring TO the matter OF trusts. he says: THE
cry about trusts will have no effect on the cam
paign that | can see. No State In the Union has
more drastic laws the subject of trusts than
Ohio. II Mclean were elected and had a Legis-
!ature behind him he could not do anything more
than has been done already. Besides, the trusts
are not by any means Objectionable combination.
The main issue is the policy of the National
Administration, especially with respect TO our new
possessions The foreign policy outlined already
must be maintained; our trade relations with tho
Orient demand II. Manila must be 10 America
what Hong Kong is TO England We cannot sur
render our great advantage at this time"
Senator Hanna does not believe Governor Roose-
welt will be a Presidential candidate next year. but
thinks the Governor Will In the future develop q
National importance.
