! COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 3.-Senator Hanna
disappointed the Republican State Con-
velti ion when he was introduced as the
| temporary chairman this afternoon. In
view OF the attitude he had assumed earlier
| in the history Of this convention on the
I question of the Endorsement OF President
Roosevelt, 1t was freely predicted that he
would justify himself in his change Of
attitude. He did nothing OF the kind,
neither did he forget the President In his
address, which gratiHed his friends and
surprised those who might be termed bis
political enemies.
The proper tribute was duly paid the
nations Chief Executive in words that
burned with eulogy and eloauence.
Those who expected the Senator to get
in to the pyroteohno class were disap-
pointed and at the same time pleased and
gratified. His keynote to the convention
Of Republican gathering, which en-
braced the most distinguished men In the
party, was of an entirely different character
from what has distinguished similar efforts
by other men who have appeared a. the
spokesman of the party. II was built on
broader lines and embraced views that are
not circumscribed by the narrow limits
of State His address was a calm dis
cussion. with decided philosophic tinge,
Of all the questions that have concerned
the people both in the State and the nation.
His only individual expression which might
be termed slogan was his warning to
the Democrats and others to keep hands
of and not disturb the prosperous con-
di,ions that now prevail In the country.
When Senator Hanna was introduced by
State Chairman J. b. Clingerman he was
obliged to make repeated bows to the vast
audience. When quiet was restored he
said
Il congratulate the Republican party Of
Ohio upon this splendid representative
body; and speak for the Republican party
OF Ohio the hope and the wish that your
deliberations will be governed by good
Judgment and proper spirit Applause.
Standing to-day in the morning Of new
century and looking back over that period
which we have just marked as our first
century, thee is everything to emphasize
that feeling of pleasure and pride and to
make every man, whether born In Ohio
or whether citizen by adoption, feel that
it has been privilege to be Buckeye.
Long continued applause.
Willie much Of our progress and presen,
situation is due to the hardy pioneers who
hewed their way through the forests and
built for themselves their homes, l claim
that, in the light Of experience In the last
half century, we owe as much to the fuhda
mental principles Of the Republican party
