Staff Correspondence.
Columbus, May 13.-Lewis Brucker
of Mansfield, chairman of the Democra-
tic state central committee, has sent a
telegram here stating that no call has
as yet been issued for meeting of that
body to choose a place for the conven.

ments in partisan papers that II will PC
to Cleveland. In all probability a call
will be issued before long to fix the time
and place for the convention. Otto g.
Young, of Massillon. is the representa-
tive of the eighteenth district on the
state committee.
The latest and most important politi
cal gossip is the story that Judge Will
liam II. Taft will be brought back from
the Philippines and nominated for gov
ernor by the Republicans. Conserva-
tive members of the party look upon
the matter as rOOrback and believe
implicitly that Nash will be renominat-
ed Notwithstanding the talk against
him. They refer TO the case of Bush
nell four years ago, when 1t seemed
that three-fourths of the party were
arrayed against him, but this opposition
did not prevent his denomination.
They claim the opposition to
Nash is Insignificant as compared to
that which confronted Bushnell, and
point out that it would be setting q
dangerous precedent to turn down a
candidate for second term.

World, will hold It's annual convention
