The Ohio Convention.

Lynchburg News.
The outcome of the State Repub-
lican convention in Ohio proves that
Senator Hanna is still in the sad
die. Before that convention met
and even during the early stages of
the session, it was thought doubtful
whether Boss Hanna could succeed
in naming his man for Governor.
There were many discordant ele-
ments IN the convention and IA
great deal of comforting and caucuss-
ing among the members. In the
end Hanna proved too strong for
his opponents and succeeded in hay
ing his man, Nash, nominated for
Governor. |. was signal triumph
and one which will confirm the
power of Ohio's leading politician.
Hereafter there will be none to dis.
pute his right to the title of toss of
the Buckley State. All the Ohio
Republicans must fall iuto line and
obey orders from headquarters, that
is to say, they must acknowledge
the authority of Boss Hanna. While
the Ohio Republicans were divided
on many points, they were in per-
feet harmony i'll one particular
All of them cordially endorse the
Administration of President Me
Kinley, and applauded everything
he has done, not accepting his re,
cent modification of the civil service
rules, in direct couhict with the
st. Louis platform and his own anti
election pledges The action OF
the convention in lauding Mckinley
is a good send-off for him in the
race for IL second nomination. II
may be taken for granted that The
Republicans will carry the State il
the gubernatorial electi )n. Ohio
can ordinarily be counted on to 60
Republican. The election of Nasl
will be claimed as vindication Of
the Mckinley administration anC
will be used by Senator Hanna us
strong argument in giving McKn
ley a second term. The proceeding
of the Ohio r. publican Convention
may be regarded as in some sens
the opening acti in the Presiden tia
campaign of 1900.

A Paper S Best Friends.

The best friends newspaper

divided into three classes. No.
one, is that class who pay for their
paper i'm advance. Numb9r two.
are that class who pay
when the year is half out, or at the
end of six months, and number
three, those who pay at the end OF
the year, to which we may add,
number four, those who kindly and
faithfully criticise the papers
faults and short cOmings, and
praise its good qualities.
We are glad to say that we have
some Of each class OH our list.
We have, also, another class-not
large however, who take tie paper
readily and constantly, but never
say word, at any time, about pay
ing. They think n newspaper
can be run on wind alone. Here
