Republicans who arc honestly opposed

and out Of the S13 delegates that went
to the state convention not q single
delegate dared to lift his voice for
Frank S. Monnett for governor. al
though he was the champion Of the
people against the trusts.
You know another thing. sir. that
the trusts went with their corruption
funds into Mr.. Monnett's own county
and prevented him from securing even
the few delegates Of his own county
for denomination for attorney general.

Ohio and Of the United States that he

repudi.tcd him and turned him out
Of office before he could finish his liti-
CATION against the Standard Oil trust.
You talk about two terms. The peo-
pie of Ohio did not apply the two term
rule to you. The people Of Ohio did
not apply the two term rule to Mchin-
ley. nor to Garfield. nor to Hayes. nor
to many others in state and national

the mother Of the high protective tariff.
Therefore. according 10 all the rules CT

grandmother Of the trusts. OF course

Last year a committee composed
largely Of farmers and several from
this county we're appointed to- take
charge of these: ) days, provide
speakers, and make all necessary
arrangements. Nothing will be
left undone to make this affair the
largest and; most instructive ever

the time ofsthe selection of the.f fol-

passes to all out -of-town. members
so as'to enable them to meet in

far to deliver only two lectures.
The state suffragists are entitled
to a great deal of praise for their
efforts and success in securing this
