politics. In 1855 Mr.. Mclean was the demo-
cratic nominee for senator against Mr..
Sherman. Six years ago he was the gem
orally recognized candidate of the demo-
Gratis for senator against Senator Hanna,
of the republicans. g. Mr.. Mclean has been

and state conventions. When Hancock
was nomina ted for president at Cincinnati
in 1880, Mr.. Mclean took a conspicuous
part. slt

tion He has been one of the Ohio dele
gates at large at succeeding national demo-
cratic conventions and is still the Ohio
