No Clash Between Hahna and Fora
 xer Over Rooseveit--The Plank En-
 dorsing the President. -@
 Columbus, O., June A--The republi-
 can state convention closed to-day with
 much alliteration in it's battle cries.
 At the convention yesterday Senator
 Hanna said: &'a 2.5s
 Hands off," While Senator Foraker
 was presiding to-day the delegates added to the sH's" the cry of Hanna,
 Herrick, Harding and Harmony"
 While all conceded that it was Han
 mas year. he would not use his influ- ence, except for the head of the ticket,
 naming his neighbor, Myron 1T. Her rick, for governor. The senator's
 friend, George B. Cox of Cincinnati, 1 named w. G. Harding for lieutenant
 governor and Wade Hampton Ellis for
 attorney general, beside being a poten- 1 tial factor in nominating Judge Sum
 mers. Auditor Glilbert and others, es-; pecially McKinnen for treasurer, were i strongly endorsed. *# +t.t. ..a 1 Of the three candidates for third 1 terms, Guilbert was the only winner.
 Governor Nash and ex-Governor Bush nell had much to do with Guilbert's success, as Guilbert served under both
 of them. He was also deputy auditor
 of state under Mckinley and by both | o1i oc I indispensable, so that Herrick was said
 also to have wanted the benefit of his
 experience of sixteen years in that of- 1 flee.
 It is stated that while Senator Hanna
 would not give out the word for ex- ! Congressman Boothman for second | place on the ticket, or for other personal preferences, he did ask to have the soldier element represented on the
 ticket After Harding's name was pre- scented by one veteran and his nomina- | tion was made by exclamation on the
 motion of an old soldier, this matter of soldier representation, wielded a great influence in other contests While Senator Foraker expressed his qualification over the ticket and the re-
 suits generally, he was especially grati- l fled over the unanimous adoption of a resolution which endorsed President l Roosevelt's nomination as well as his administration. ... >%.,
 It had been anticipated, as Congress- | man Nevin said to-day, that Senators i Hanna and Foraker would lock horns | over the endorsement of Roosevelt's
 candidacy, but instead, they locked arms and are now leading the Ohio re- | publicans in this campaign more har- | moniously than ever. at.t There never was more talk about l fixing a slate in advance of the conven- | tion than this year, but the balloting 1 indicated that such was not. the case, for at least some of the minor places, at any rate, Hanna and Herriek did not exercise their personal influence 1 ''in giving the word" and left the hall
 before the nominations for minor places were made. In the "free-for-alT'
 races that followed, the convention was at times uncomfortable, even by such
 commanding presiding officer as Sem ator Foraker. The plank indorsing Roosevelt reads: We commend President Roosevelt's fidelity to duty, his adherence to Presi- | dent McKinley's policies and his own practical ability in his office, showing
 him in every way worthy of election by the people as their chief magistrate.
 We favor his nomination for president in 1904.
 The Ohio republican delegation in l congress has honored the state in both | houses Senators Joseph B. Foraker ! and Marcus A. Hanna have splendidly ] maintained Ohio's leadership. The re- election of Senator Hanna is distinct 1 national demand upon our state and | we hereby cordially promise him the ! undivided support of the entire republi- can party os Ohio.
 The policy of the government admin istration of affairs in the Philippines is
 commended, and ''the grateful acknowl- edgment of the nation for the splendid services in the Philippines of that dis,
