ELECTION ISSUES
IN OHIO CITIES
National Politics Will Be
Affected.
FIGHT AGAINST M'KINLEY
FIGHT AGAINST
HIS FOES WORKING FOR CON-
Troll OF THE STATE.
Robert McKisson, Whom Hanna De-
feated for the Senate, a Candi-
date for Mayor of
Cleveland.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CINCINNATI, AriI 2-While the mu-
nicipal elections in Ohio tomorrow are
for local offices, yet they have strong
bearings on State and National poll
tics, and also on factional interests in
both parties. The municipal machinery
will have great influence in the selec-
ton of delegates to the State conven-
lions, to be held next month or later
and the candidates for the Gubernato-
rial and other State nominations are
conducting aggressive canvasses now
in connection with the municipal cleo
lions. The bearing on national politics
is seen in Senator Foraker's presence
and interest in the course of events.
Should Republican Governor be elect
ed next November who is unfriendly to
the senior Ohio Senator, that Governor
would no doubt be at the head Of the
State ticket for his second term two
years hence, when members of the
Legislature are elected to choose the
successor to Foraker. The friends OF
the national administration want SOL
id Ohio delegation to the National Re
publican Convention year hence.
The Republican candidate for Mayor
of Cleveland, the home of Senator Han
ma is Robert McKisson, who was the
fusion candidate before the LEGISLATURE
in January of last year for Senator
against Senator Hanna. 1t is sald
throughout the State that McKisson is
running for a third term not for the
Mayoralty alone, but also for the pur-
pose of having President Mckinney,
Senator Hanna and others in the Ohio
State conventions this year and next
year and of controlling the four dele
gates from the Cleveland district. ana.
If nossible other Ohi1 delegates to the
national convention next year.
In other Ohio cities the factional
lines are less directly drawn. In To-
indo there are two Republicans running
for Mayor, while the Democrats have
but one candidate. In this city there
is no election for Mayor, but much IN
torne+ &c taken in the election of two
members of the Board of City Affairs;
which controls the local municipal
patronage. The usual fight is beng
waged by the Democrats and independ-
emf Republicans against George b. Cox
as the Republican boss.

Great Northern freight train blew up
