day after a day of dramatic plays.
While there were half n dozen other
candidates for Governor. the Mclean
men claimed everything with such
confidence that they undertook to be
magnanimous in minor parts, although
they were at the same time careful
that the star candidate was not
eclipsed
The ticket as completed follows:
Governor-John r. Mclean, Hamil-
ton.
Lieutenant Governor-A. w. Patrick
of Tuscarawas.
Supreme Judge-Dewitt c. Badger Of
Madison.
Attorney General-J. w. Dore of Sem
eCa.
Auditor-George w. Sigafoos OF
Darke.
Treasurer-James l.. German Of
Lawrence.
Member of the Board of Public
Works-Fletcher d. Malin Of Lake.
Mclean was nominated on the first
ballot by a half vote, and the figuring
was SO close that the dramatic scene of
changes on the second ballot with sec
ond-choice" reserves fiocking to Nc
Leans standard did not take place. 1t
was claimed Mclean could have had
ATS votes out Of the S02 on the first
ballot instead Of 4O2k and that he
would have had over 500 on the sec
ond ballot. The convention was dis
orderly in the extreme, much Of the
time being beyond the control Of the
sergeant-at-arms.
The platform indorses the Chicago
platform. especially emphasizing the
financial plank, saying: I'VE continue
to demand the free and unlimited coin
age Of silver and gold as equal in
primary money at the ratio OF 1G to /,
world" 1t reaffirms loyalty to Bryan
and demands his nomination in 1900.
The platform also says:
We are radically and unalterably OPP
posed to imperialism In the United
States OF America. When we have
solved some Of the race problems that
confront us at home. then by example
we can proclaim the blessings that flow
from free institutions and thus procure
benevolent assimilation" without
criminal aggression"
We are opposed to entangling alli-
ances with foreign kingdoms and en-
pires.
We commend the action OF Congress
in declaring our war with Spain was
for humanity and not for conquest.
We proudly recognize the valOr and
glorious achievements Of our gallant
soldiers and sailors from Bunker Hill
to this very hour as being among the
most thrilling and GLORIOUS in the his
tory of the world, but We profoundly
regret that American soldiers are be-
ing unlawfully used, In the name Of
liberty to crush and destroy dawning
republicanism in the Orient, and we
denounce the secret and vicious alli-
ance now In evidence between Eng
land and the Republican Administra-
ton. whereby this nation may become
involved In war with foreign nations.
We demand that the Cubans and
Filipinos not only be permitted. but
encouraged, to establish independent
republics. deriving all of their gov
ernmental powers from the consent OF
the governed.
We denounce the Republican party
for its thirty-eight years of abject
subserviency to the shipping interest
OF Great Britain, and we denounce the
o-called Hanna-Payne shipping bill
which, II enacted into law, would fur
Their shackle our interests.
II vigorously denOunces trusts and
declares them the legitimate fruits Of
the gold standard and other corrupt
Republican legislation on questions Oi
