Republicans today held an enthusias-
tic delegate convention. For the first
time in years the hatchet was buried

wildly cheered. He voiced the senti-
ment of the county when he advocated
the reelection of both Nash
and Foraker and complimetned the
former on his stand on the Cincinnati
prize fight and the Toledo centennial
appropriation.
