The action Of the Pennsylvania Republican
State Convention and the result Of the contro-
versy in Ohio in the withdrawal Of all objecnon
i,v senator Hanna to the Endorsement of Pres1-
dent Roosevelt are accepted all over the country
as iDsurinc the absolute certainty of the Presi-
dents nomination next year, barring unlore-
seen and improbable accidents.
Not only is there no competitor making an
active contest for the prize which Is the leg1u-
mate object Of Afr Roosevelt's ambition and
the natural tribute to be expected from the peo-
r1a if they are satisfied with the discharge OF
the duties forced upon him by the tragic death
Of President Mckinley. but there is no apparent
chance for a competitor if he did care TO test
his ponularity against the Presidents. Sixteen
States have already IN their State conventions
declared for his nomination or will certainly 90

and several Southern States are in the same

mort be absolutely needs. and It comes from
every section Of the land. North. South East

In addition to these it is easy to count a

probability of an opposition delegate. Inc
