Bryan will meet Senator Jones here for

this year. There will be no abandonment
of any issue of the Chicago platform"

Ohio Democrats Want to Tap John X.
McLean's 4sBar'I."

COLUMBUS, o., June 1.-THE Demo-
cratic state convention here this week fol-
lows the reception to Admiral Dewey OF
last week. Ii was at one time proposed TO
have Admiral Dewey here during the con-
vention, or rather. to hold the convention
last week while he was here, but some of
the subscribers to the Dewey celebration
fund objected and the plan was abandoned.
The Dewey decorations, exterior and inter-
ior. however, still remain all over the city.
The hotels have large portraits of Dewey
displayed, and none of the Democratic
heroes, except Bryan. The Democratic
hustlers point TO the portraits of the hero
of Manila as the man for the second place
on the national ticket, and there is very
much talk about Bryan and Dewey being
nominated at Kansas City on the same
ticket.
During the agitation for Bryan and
Dewey as the coming men for the national
ticket, there is one man wanted here above
all others at this time and that man is
John r. Mclean, the last Democratic cam
didate for Governor and the acknowledged
leader of the Ohio Democracy. But all
telegraphic calls for Mclean fail to get a
favorable response He has announced that
next Saturday from New York and he can
not attend the convention in Columbus this
week and get ready for his foreign en-
gagements and that he cannot return in
time TO attend the national convention in
Kansas City three weeks hence. He would
be placed at the head of the Ohio delega-
tion to Kansas City IL he would give
single word of consent. but he declines
absolutely. AS Re is a brother-in-law of
Admiral Dewey his friends say that he does
not want to appear in the role of family
preferences, but they insist that if Admiral
Dewey is put the ticket with Bryan,
without his personal efforts, that he will
return from Europe at once and devote
himself exclusively to the campaign in the
interest of Bryan and Dewey. The friends
of Mclean go further and say that he will
make a strong effort to carry McKinleys
State with this ticket
There is movement to have the Demo-
cratic national headquarters located in CO.
lumbus, with a view to giving Chairman
Hanna all he wants to look after at home"
but whether or not this succeeds, it is
claimed that Bryan as we'll as Dewey
would be taken all over Ohio in special
trains, and the significant feature of the
talk is that the delegates claim they could
carry their Ohio State ticket with Bryan
and Dewey and elect majority of the con-
gressmen. All who are agitating Bryan and
Dewey as the ticket think there is no doubt
about the admiral accepting. There is
diversity of opinion to whether this con-
vention should take the initial step in in
dorsing Dewes IS well as Bryan for the
national ticket.
