the champion has certainly picked out

the kind of fellow to duck n chance
to make championship fight and his
vacation in no way interferes with
the plans of the club managers who
have been after his services. There
is nothing In sight as yet for JEFF and

made to have the match come off at

)f Senator Hanna's
Candidacy
For Reelection to the
Senate.
Many Letters Being Sent Out
Concerning the Matter.

Chairman Dick, of the Republican
State committee is outlining the coming
campaign in OHIO with decided re-
gard to the future, particularly the fu.
ture of Senator NJ. A. Hanna, says the
Plain Dealer.
Letters are being sent to party lead
ers all over the State urging them
to give especial attention to the make
UP of the Legislative ticket. and to
spare no effort for Republican success.
Senator Foraker's term expires, and
he will be a candidate for reelection,
Chairman Dick writes, and on this
account and because of the proposed
Congressional redistricting, the cleo
ton of a Republican Legislature is
particularly desirable.
Then Gen. Dick proceeds to put in a
long range plug" for Senator Hanna
Two years from now Senator Han.
ma will come up for reelection" says
Dick. According to precedent the
Legislators elected this fall will be
rendered second term, and will, there

that will be called upon to re-elect
Senator Hanna
"Please have this In mind. and see
to 1t that the utmost discretion used
in the nomination of Legislative can
didates. Election of Republicans Is
imperative, not only because Of the
Importance of the coming session OF
the General Assembly, but also because
of the bearing it will have upon the
events of two years hence"

being sent out by Chairman Dick, but
