Audiences-A Speech of Power Closes
His Second Journey Through ohio.
COLUMBUS. Ohio Oct. Ex-senator Hanna
finished his second speechmaking tour
through several OF the counties OF the
State to-day and arrived in Columbus to-
night. On his frat tour to speak for George
h. Nash. tho Republican candidate for
Governor and to uphold the principles
and policies OF the Mckinley Admin istraton,
Senator Hanna covered important ground On
this seconi tour, which began on Monday last
at Fostoria and ended at Marysvlle this alter
noon. Ssnator Hanna covered quite as import
ant ground as he did on his frat trip. All told
on this second tour. Senator Hanna spoke to
audiences aEgreRating fully 10000 persons.
All along the route Senator Hanna made a
great impression. He has become one OF the
strongest political orators Of his party. In all
OF his speeches he has appealed to the reason.
sense and judgment OF his hearers. He
has not been critical OF those who" differed
with him. with the exception OF William ].
Bryan and John Il. Mclean. the Democratic
candidate for Governor. Senator Hanna has
not hesitated to speak plainly concerning
Bryan and Mclean. He has charged in al
| most every speech that they are attemtnR to
influence the voters OF Ohio BY appealing to
their prejudices to support the fallacies OF
Bryansm. He has invariably spoken Of Bryan
as IAN arch and unmi tigated demnRogua." and
his references to Mr.. Mclean have been in
effect that he 10 hand-in- love with Bryan in
an effort to hoodwink and BAN booze the
voters OF Ohio for no other purpose than to
subserve the political ambitions that bother
the brains OF Bryan and Mclean morning.
| noon and night
Senator Hanna has discussed the affairs OF
| Ohio and those OF the Mckinley Administration

along the line that Senator Hanna Ia
admired and esteemed by the Republicans OF
| Ohio and that he 10 cordially hated by the
| Organized Democracy OF the State and nation.
who fear his manner In telling plain truths to
his great audiences Senator Hanna is coura-
! geous He cares nothing for the criticisms OF
the enemies Of his party. He is one OF those
! political leaders who have acquired national
renown and no pent- up Utica like the Buckeye
! State confines his powers. He has learned the
truth of the political axiom that the friendship
OF the enemies OF his party 10 not to be courted.
and is not to be desired at all. for the reason
| that freniiness on the part OF an enemy would
but mark the beginning Of his political decay.
| Senator Hanna on his arrival here tonight
| had long conference with Charles Dick. chair
man OF the Republican State Com mittes. and
at midnight he departed for his home In Csve-
land. He does not expect to take the stump
| again before next Wednesday Senator Hanna
said before leaving for his home:
Il have been perfectly astonished by tho out
pouring OF people to attend the meetings at
which have spoken this week. What 10 true
| OF the attendance at my meetings has been
| true OF all Republican meetings in the
| State. The people fully alive to
the importance OF this campaign In
Ohio. They are awakened to the fact that this
is more than a State campaign and that It has
an influence. as well. on great national ques-
tions and the appeals to them have stirred
them to action to greater degree than ever
! before In an Ohio State battle.
My judgment is that there 10 no room for
| doubt as to the final result. The voters OF Ohio
are Intelligent and always vote their conve-
| tons Party lines never wholly control their
actions and the issues OF this campaign
appeal to the judgment OF men as affecting
their material interests and their verdict to
sustain the present Administration in every
particular is very apparent. Mr.. Bryans visit
to Ohio has been productive OF good for our
cause He has thrown aside what little dig
nifty he ever assumed and lowered himself to
the status OF a demagogus. l have visited
several counties In which he spoke and have
found criticisms even among the Democrats
| which are uniavorabls to him
Another feature OF the campaign Is the
so-calsd third party. headed by Mr.. Samuel
Jones OF Toledo. the self constituted candidate
for Governor. ard who Is making hts cam
paign one Of pure ssntimentality. He dis
claims all political parties and appeals to the
people to sustain his pet doctrine which he
styles the Golden Rule without any regard as
to how his principles OF government are to be
ssta bished. The result OF his candidacy
is in measure an uncertain element.
and while he nn vii no doubt receive eve
our success. 1t seems 70 mo his support

other conclusion than that the state 10 safe in
