Republicans in Ohio Refuse Demo-
cratic Proposition.

cratic Proposition.
Columbus o., Sept. 11.-Chairman NJ
A. Daugherty Of the democratic state
executive committee has addressed a
letter to Chairman Charles Dick of the
republican state central committee, sug-
Eestins that as an evidence of respect to
the president all political speeches for
the campaign in Ohio be cancelled, add
ing that similar arrangement has been
made at the time Garfield was assassin
ated. Last night Chairman Dick replied
to Chairman Daugherty refusing TO ac-
quiece in his suggestion and calling at
tention to the fact that While a similar
arrangement had been proposed at the
time of Garfield's assassination 1t had
not been accepted by the republican
state committee.
Colonel Dicks reply follows in part:
The republican state executive COM
mittee agree most heartily with every
expression of your committee in regard
to President Mckinley. and Join with
you in denunciation of the das:ardly
crime. We share your sympathy for all
who suffer from the DOW. and join in
your prayer for the presidents speedy
| recovery.
However. It does not seem to us APP
propriate to acquiece in your sugges-
ton that we abandon our public main
tenance of the principles that President
Mckinley represents, and which he has
so often and so ably presented 10 the
people. We note your remark that a
similar proposal was made by the dem
ocratic committee in Ohio in the year
Garfield was assassinated, and that the
IA ia yxae to,7 hv 10
can committee
The record corrects your misrnder-
standing in regard to the matter, show
ing that the suggestion to that effect
from Clark Irvine, then chairman of
your state committee was declined by
George K. Nash, at that time chairman
of the republican state executive COM
mittee.
1T seems to this committee that we
can best attest our loyalty to our Lead
er by continuing our advocacy If the
principles which he has always sup
ported.
IF it seems best to your committee
to withdraw from antagonizing those
principles, and to cease from further adj
vocacy of political doctrines which the
president has always believed to be per-
country, we shall be very glad indeed TO
your cooperation hereafter in the
maintenance of more wholesome Lubiic
policies
I'm any event, and in accordance with
the life-long conduct of President Nc
Kinley of courtesy in all political cam
palgns. our committee and the entire
~ rIo
to unite with you in whatever will
soften the asperities of the controver-
sizes, eliminate unwarranted personals
exclusively to the consideration Of the
great principles that separate the OPP
| posing schools of political opinion
President Mckinley may not survive,
but the principles for which he stood
Will live and triumph, If we in the dis
charge of our duty as citizens meet ev-
cry requirement with the same patriot
ism and devotion to principles that have
characterized the life of William Nc
Kinley.
Therefore we believe it to be our
highest duty to the country, and to the
president, and the course which would
commend itself to his best judgement,
to go forward in our maintenance and
advocacy of the doctrines so dear to
him and so important to the welfare of
the people
