COLUMBUS. O.. May 23.-The DEM
ocratic state convention will meet here
tomorrow and Wednesday to choose
delegates at large to the national con-
vention and to nominate candidates for
secretary of state, Judge of the supreme
court. one member of the board of pub
lie works and a dairy and food COM
missioner. The delegates are slow in
arriving and few of the party leaders
are expected to put in an appearance
before tomorrow. What course the
convention will take with regard to the
several matters upon which it is called
10 act appears at this stage to be very
uncertain. Even the politicians sup
posed to be best acquainted with the
situation hesitate to venture a predc-
ton. Comparatively little attention is
being paid so far to the nominations
for state officers. What interest is
manifested in the convention centers in
the selection Of delegates to the ST.
Louis convention and the adoption of a
platform. Hearst has been pursuing
an active campaign in Ohio and one Of
his followers has been chosen for tenn
porary chairman. The striking feature
of the situation up to date appears to
be the utter lack of interest taken in
the convention by those heretofore
looked upon as the leaders of the party
Even Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland is
not displaying his wonted activity He
has declared his opposition to the
Hearst movement. but has made no
active fight and expressed no wish to
go as a delegate to the national con-
vention. 1t is freely predicted that un-
less the opposition awakes from it's
apathy Hearst will surely succeed in
his efforts to control the convention.
