'er eulogized the mayor of New York
at the close Of his speech.
The first test Of strength came on
the question of adopting a minority
report from the Committee on Creden-
totals seating the radical delegates
from Franklin county. The minority
report was defeated, 307 20-35 to
$50 1876.
The majority report of the conserva-
tives on credentials was then adopt
ed unanimously.
An attempt to amend the platform
by striking out the unit rule was de-
feated, yeas 327 15-28; nays 391 13-2S.
The Ohio Platform.
The platform is devoted mainly to
State issues relegating purely National
questions TO the National convention.
The Ohio delegation is directed to cast
its entire As votes in the National con-
Vention of those present and shall de-
eide when such majority shall detern-
inc that course to be advisable.
The platform contains q plank ia
Vofing two cent street railway fare
and offers the people relief from the
political trust which has long controli-
ed every department of the State gov
eminent. It's owners have grown arro-
CANT. reckless and corrupt secure, they
think, in the union Of predatory forces

THE STRUGGLE'IN OHIO.
Unit Rule, il is Declared, will Defeat
the Hopes OF Hearst.

(By the Associated Press)
Columbus, O., May 25.-The Dem
ocratic State convention here today
nominated the following ticket:
Secretary of State, A. p. Sandles,
Of ottawa.
Supreme Judge, Philip ]. Renner.
of Cincinnati.
Clerk of Supreme court, Peter Ma
haffey, of Cambridge.
Dairy and Food Commissioners,
Quintin NJ. Gravatt, of Wooster.
Member of the Board of Public
Works, William II. Ferguson, of
Springfield.
Elector at large, John A. Mellow
ell, of MilIersburg. and A. ]. Pearson,
of Woodsfield. 49,
Delegates at large William S.
Thomas, of Springfield, John A. Nc
Mahon, of Dayton. Edward II. Moore,
of Youngstown, and Charles p. Salen,
of Cleveland.
Alternates-David L. Rockwell, of
Ravenna, John Sheehan, of Cincinnati,
Henry G. Gray, OF Hamilton, and Will
liam j.. Decker, of Paulding
There were three presidential ele-
mepts involved. The Hearst men orig
inafly wanted instructions, but finally
limited their opposition to the unit
rule. The friends of Colonel James
Kilbourna, of Columbus. who was the
Democratic candidate for Governor
three years ago, wanted endorse
ment."
The Harmonites Win.
The friends of Judge Judson Har-
mon, Of Cincinnati, who was attorney
general under Cleveland wanted
neither endorsement nor instruction.
but the unit rule. The Harmon men
apparently won. The platform was
adopted as presented with the eXccp-
ton of two cent railway fare plank,
which was added at the suggestion of
Mayor Johnson, of Cleveland. The
majority for the unit rule was only 65
out of a total vote of 1928.
After the conservatives had defeat
ed the radicals at the preliminary
meetings yesterday they had today
contentious among themselves, but
the Harmon men limited their efforts
to avoiding either instructions or en-
dorSement and making sure of the
unit rule. under which William r.
Hearst VIII get no votes from Ohio,
although he has carried at least three
districts. Harland Cleveland, of Gin
cInnat, cousin Of former President
Grover Cleveland, made the argu-'
ment before the convention in sup
port Of the unit rule, to which John
II. Clark and others vigorously OBJ
jected.
The convention was in continuous
session almost nine hours and dur,
ing the last three hours it was disor-
DERBY. There were several dramatic
scenes, notably when former Cons
gresham John j. Lentz and Colonel
William a. Taylor INDUCED in per-
sonalitics ON the platform, and later
when Allen o. Myers and Mayor Tom
l.. Johnson had 4 heated argument
The delegates and alternates at
large are claimed by the so-called con-
serVatiyes, who also claim thirty o.
the district delegates. Their poll OF
the Ohio delegation to St Louis is SO

(By the Associated PfeSs.)
Nashville, Tenn, May 25.-Late to-
night after wild exciting scenes, the
Democratic State convention adjourn
ed unit! 10 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing. James ID. Frazier has peen nomi-
nated 10 succeed himself as governor
and a platform instructing delegates
to the national convention TO vote for
the nomination of Judge Alton 3.
Parker, of New York, for president,
and to vote as a unit on all questions
has been adopted. Further than this.
the convention has not done.
The platform commendS the ad
fniplStrat1on of Governor FRAZER and
endorses the Adams temperance law
renews allegiance to the fundamen-
tai doctrines of the party; demands a
reformation of the tariff and inVesu
gatlcn of the postolfice and other
alleged frauds i'll the departments at
Washington.
Roosevelt is Arrai%ned.
In arraigning the present admins
tration the platform, among other
things says:
1T is especially necessary to restrict
the executive head of the Federal
government within the constitutional
limits of the authority and no argu
IHeHl Oh temporary eApeulellcy can
justify the assumption by him of
powers conferred, exclusively upon
the legislative department of the gov
eminent or the violation by him of
plain provision of constitutional,
statute and treaty law.
I'VE, therefore, denounce the many
unlawful acts and acts of usurped au-
thority by the present occupant of
the White House as attacks upon the
very existence of constitutional gov
eminent"
ON the race question the platform
says:
president Roosevelt, by his official
action, has wantonly precipitated the
race issue in n manner involving rs q
logical and necessary. sequence special
equality between the white people OF
this country, and deserves in conse-
quence thereof the condemnation Of
all right thinking people. We believe
that the negro is entitled to just treat
ment and fun protection of the law,
but we also believe that the welfare
of both races and the hope of intelli-
gent free government depends upon
the unquestioned social and political
supremacy Of the white man. Who
ever, by word or act seeks to bring
this fact i'm question, is an enemy of
his country and OF his race"
