CAMPAIGN OPENINGS.
The Democratic and Repubii-
can Com mites Will Soon De-
eide on Times and Places.

Columbus, Aug. 20.-Chairman Dick
of the Republican state executive COM
mittee states that unless a change is
made the Republicans of Ohio will
open the campaign at Delaware on Sep
tember 81, when Senators Foraker and
Hanna and Governor Nash will be the
speakers. The people of Delaware
the opening meeting. The executive
committee will meet this afternoon,
and it is quite likely that the selec-
tions made by Senator Foraker and
Chair man Dick will be ratified. The
senators are not expected at the confer
ence of the committee this afternoon,
but there is little doubt that their
wishes will prevail and Delaware will
be selected
Chairman Daugherty of the Demo-
cratic state executive committee Is ex-
pected here to-day, and he win call a
meeting of the committee to arrange
the time and place for the opening of
the campaign by the Democrats. There
has been some feeling In favor Of the
opening at Bucyrus, Crawford county,
because of the fact that Col. Kilbourne,
the nominee for governor, was favor
able to that city, but the central COM
mittee Of Crawford county Is not favor
ably disposed to handle the opening.
Franklin, Warren county, is likely to
win, as the people of southwestern
Ohio are particularly anxious to have
the campaign opening. They are en-
| thuSiastic over the matter and will
make strong bid for the opening.
Col. Kilbourne, the Democratic nom-
inee for governor, has gone to Hot
Springs. Va. where he expects to re-
main until the last of the month. On
his return to the city he will devote
his time to the work of the campaign
