CHAIRMAN GOODRICH
PAYS HIGH TRIBUTE

James p. Goodrich. chairman of the Re
publican state committee, said last night
of Senator Hanna:
I'm the death of Senator Hanna the coun-
try loses one of its greatest men. No one
stood nearer the people than did he. He
was a strong, stalwart figure in American
politics, and no one in his generation pos
sessed a stronger hold on the American
people. He was called to the head of the
Republican party at a most critical time.
and the manner in which he conducted the
memorable campaigns Of 1896 and 1900
stamped him as the greatest political or
ganizer of his time. No such word as fail
ever found a place in his political vocab-
ulary. Caricatured in the beginning as the
oppressor of labor, he became recognized
during his later years as the trusted friend
of the ~toilers, and they never appealed to
him in vain. He believed in the good sense
of the average man, and in his speech OPEN
ing the convention of 1900 his advice to the
convention was to always trust the peo-
Pile He trusted them. They soon learned
to have implicit confidence in him.
He never lodged an issue in politics, but
fought in the open with a courage that
commanded the admiration and respect Of
those who did not agree with his conclu-
sions. His death is a distinct loss TO the
country, and in the councils of the Repub-
lican party his place will be difficult to
fill"

CANDIDATES FOR HI
VACANT S~ENATORSHIP

CINCINNATI, Feb. 15.-As the Ohio Leg
~islature is now in session. Senator Hanna
successor will not be appointed by the Gov
ernor, but at once elected for the terms
expiring in March, 1905 and In March, 1911.
Less than seven years ago Hanna, who
had never before held office, succeeded John
Sherman as senator and had over seven
years yet to serve, having just last month
been reelected. During the past week
there has been much Comment about the
senatorial succession. Among the names
mentioned in this connection have been
those of Governor Herrick, Charles r. Taft
and George b. Cox, of Cincinnati, j. II.
Hoyt, of Cleveland, Gen. j. Warren Kelfer,
of Springfield, General Asa w. Jones, of
Youngstown, and Congressman Dick, GroS-
venor, Burton, Navin and Warnock.
Senator Hanna lived in northeastern and
Senator Foraker In southwestern Ohio. 1t
is claimed by some that geographical con-
dltions are likely to add to the chances of
Governor Herrick OF Congressman Dick,
who reside in lake districts. While Sen
ator Foraker resides in Cincinnati, the
friends of Taft and Cox cite the case of
their Indiana neighbors where Senators
Fairbanks and Reveridge both reside in
men nave died within a month who would
have been candidates for the senatorship
had they lived-ex-Governor Charles Fos-
ter and Ex-Governor Asa S. Bushnell. For
years candidates for United States senators
nave been Endorsed by State conventions,
SO the legislative action was merely per-
functory, but now there is every indication
of an old-time free-for-all fight before the
legislature.

J. HAMPTON MOORE
KNEW MR.. HANNA WELL

j. Hampton Moore, of Philadelphia, pres
ident of the National League of Republican
Clubs, who was in the city yesterday, knew
Senator Hanna we'll.
II first became closely associated with
Senator Hanna in 1900, when / was secre-
tary of the citizens committee OF Philadel-
phia that had charge of the arrangements
for the Republican national convention"
said Mr.. Moore last evening at the English.
Il had an opportunity then to observe his
remarkable qualities as an organizer and
as a business man who could handle a null
titude of large affairs, and to learn as well
the personal characteristics that endeared
him TO all who knew him. He was a won
derful man. | met him at a number of the
dinners of the Gridiron Club, in Washing
ton, and L have always been impressed
by the high regard in which he was held
by the newspaper men. No man ever at
tended the Gridiron dinners who was so
loved and esteemed by the members of the
club.
Senator Hanna's public career was re-
markable. Eight years ago his name was
scarcely known outside his own city, or
outside his own State at the most. His
friendship for Mckinley drew him into poll
ties, and within a few months he became
the party's leader. He did not seek prom
inence himself and was determined to keep
out of the public eye until his friends forced
him before the country that the people
might know him personally and learn that
there was no basis for the vicious attacks
made on him by the newspapers of the OPP
posite political party.
"Wlthln the last lew months ne was Sc
verely criticised, even by some Republicans,
because he did not follow up his statement
that he was not a candidate for the presi-
dency by an Endorsement of President
Roosevelt. This was altogether uncalled
for. In his position as the head of the
party organization he ceHld no more de-
clare for Mr.. Roosevelt for President than
the chairman of the Republican organiza-
ton in Indiana could pick out one of the
candidates for Governor and indorse him.
1t is true that Mr.. Roosevelt was the only
avowed candidate for President. but Sena-
tor Hanna could not, in fairness, take an
attitude that would preclude any other
mans entering the race. / don't believe
that this point has ever been brought out
in connection with the discussion OF this
subject.
1T will be a long time before Senator
Hanna's place is filled. either in the party
organization or in public affairs"

crowds that suggested the heat of a presi-
Dental campaign year, everywhere an
eager hanging on the simple, straight
forward words of Senator Hanna. and
everywhere evidence that these words went
home TO hearts full of affection for and
confidence I'm this man, who, within the
ready recollection of every one. had been
used as a political bugaboo. The Indian
apolis meeting in Tomlinson Hall was in
many respects remarkable, aud the sus-
tanned enthusiasm with which Senator
Hanna was received was a revelation, even
to Senator Hanna, who was deeply touched
by IL, and found in il ample recompense for
the WEAKNESS of the trip, which, owing
to his enfeebled condition at that time, was
apparent.
crowds were tremendous. At Marion there
were literally acres of people, who had
stood patiently awaiting a belated train
for hours in order to hear him. Darkness
fell shortly after the departure from Ma
rion, but at points beyond there were
| crowds of people who had waited his con-
ing into the evening hours. and would, evil
IDENTIFY, have remained until midnight in
order to get a glimpse of Mark Hanna and
hear the sound of his voice. The meeting
at South Bend, with which the trip con-
cluded, was similar in all its features TO
that at Indianapolis the night before.
There never was better manifestation
given of tremendous personal popularity
than was offered to Senator Hanna during
those days, and he gave every evidence of
appreciation, saying on one occasion that
if he were not a Buckeye he would want
to live in Indiana. The effect of that trip
was to inject the fighting spirit into Repub-
leans all over the State-all Of them. prac-
tically, following the Senator's tour through
the newspapers where they were not privi-
legged to hear him in person. If Senator
Hanna had lived through another national
campaign and had again visited Indiana it
would be difficult, Judging from his growing
popularity in the State, TO figure standing
room for those who would have focked TO
hear and see that grand old man of Re-
publicaniSm."

OHIO LEGISLATURE TO
ADJOURN FOR ONE WEEK
AS A MARX OF RESPECT
Members Pay Tribute to the Man
They Elected Senator Only a
Month Ago.
SORROW AT CLEVELAND
Where Mr.. Hanna Was Beloved
by His Fellow-Townsmen-
Successorship Gossip.

COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 15.-Profound sor-
row is expressed by State officials and cit
liens of Columbus over the death Of Sem
ator Hanna. Many touching tributes were
paid tonight to his memory by members OF
the Ohio General Assembly. which only one
month ago reelected him TO the United
States Senate.
The Legislature will tomorrow adjourn
for one week as a mark of respect. In
cidentally, this action Will give further time
for elaboration on the matter OF eleeting
a successor to Senator Hanna, which duty
falls on the present General Assembly and
by statutory requirement must be per-
formed within two weeks after official no
LITIGATION of the senator's death. on az
count of the proposed adjournment, official
notification cannot be given before Tues
day of next week. As a result the election
probably will be held on March s. Mr..
Hanna had been a periodical visitor to Co
lumbus for twenty-five years. He was by
no means a we'll man during his last visit
here. and il was out of regard for his
physical condition that during that period,
by common consent, newspaper men here
did not seek the usual interviews with him,
but assisted Secretary Elmer Dover to in
sure his getting as much rest as possible.
On the day he was elected, Jan. Is, when
he had finished his short speech of accept
ance, delivered before the Senate and House
in joint session. the effect Of the strain
under which he was laboring was apparent
10 those near him. Some OF his friends
were greatly alarmed, and only breathed
easier when he was safely got out of the
S~tatehouse. AT the close OF his speech, the
blood rushed to his head and for a mo-
ment his neck was of a purple hue.
Former Governor Nash on learning of
Senator Hanna's death tonight. said:
while under the intense shock which one
feels when he has just heard of the death
OF a dear friend, he cannot speak worthily
of that friend, nor do himself justice If he
attempts to do so. The great Nation, to
which he was periodically devoted, will be
the most sincere mOurner at his bier. This
is as it should be, for ii was in her service
that his life was sacrificed"
Secretary of State Lewis C. Laylin said:
mo public man was more steadfast in de-
votion to his friends; always frank and
helpful in counsel, his advice was inval-
liable. His knowledge of men and their fit
ness for official position was remarkable.
His party gratefully remembers his Won
derful organization for the nomination of
Mckinley"

SPEECHES IN INDIANA

George b. Lockwood. secretary to Gov
ernor Durbin, said last night:
1.-THE apathy which characterized the off,
wear campaign of two years ago was a
source of constant anxiety and discourage
ment to the Republican state committee in
1902. No one knew what was going on under
the placid surface of affairs, and it was felt
that something must be done to get things
going. Even speakers of wide repute had
been speaking 10 benches of a greater or
less degree of baroness, and there was a
lack OF interest in the issues OF the cam
paign. apparently, which called for drastic

''It was determined to call upon the one
man who, il was believed from the expert
ences of the campaign of 1900. was capable
of arousing the old-time enthusiasm in the
Republican rank and file, and after long
and earnest effort a promise was exacted
by Chairman Goodrich from Senator Hanna
10 make a two days tour of the State.
When il was announced that Senator Ham

SORROW At THE LATE
HOME OF THE SENATOR

CLEVELAND, O., Feb. 15.-Notwith-
standing that the. news of Senator Hanna's
death had been momentarily expected for
many hours in this, his home city, the
announcement of his passing away came as
a most severe shock and caused profound
sorrow in all quarters. In an Incredible
short space of time following the death
of the senator the newspapers had out
special extra editions which were eagerly
read by all classes of people. CROWDS
gathered in front of the newspaper offices
to read the bulletins describing the final
scenes in the death
Not since the death Of President Nc
Kinley has there been such universal sor-
row i'm Cleveland on all sides as was mani
tested when the fact of Senator Hanna's
death became known.
The City Council to-day adopted resolu-
tons of sympathy and esteem to the MEM
DRY of the late Senator Hanna and there
upon adjourned. The resolutions contain
the statement that Senator Hanna was one
of the country's most eminent statesmen
and the first citizen of Cleveland and eX-
presses sympathy to the friends and fam
lily of the deceased. The Council chamber
was draped in mourning and the entire City
Hall will be draped tomorrow.
As rapidly as the work can be done all
public buildings will be draped. The
Council will attend the funeral in a body.
Mayor Johnson has sent a letter to seven
representative citizens asking them to meet
him at his office tomorrow afternoon TO
consider what will be the best method of
honoring the memory OF Senator Hanna
and to arrange a fitting programme on the
day of the funeral.

this city and the entire country has sus-
tanned in the death of Senator Hanna. The
measure of his greatness is everywhere

by all the people. The Chamber of Com
merce Hall and the entire organization is
at your disposal, and the directors beg that
you utilize the Chamber in every way pos

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PACED
spond TO the wishes of his beloved friend
and leader, as a soldier to the sound of
his captains voice-not because Mark
man, but because in William Mckinley
he had found his ideal of manhood and of
craftsmanship. So well was this under
stood before Mckinley died that when the
President was stricken down there was
mingled with the sorrow of the people a
feeling of sympathy for the loyal friend
whose heart went into the grave with VIII
liam Mckinley.
With President Mckinley all political
ambitions, except of the most impersonal
nature, persisted in the case of Senator
Hanna. The leader was dead, but the cause
was left-a cause broader than the limits
of partisanship-the cause of the Ameri-
can people. He labored for the ameliora-
ton OF Industrial conditions with an un-
selfish zeal which won for him the con-
fidence of workingmen, and which has re-
suited in bringing thousands of employers
to a better realization of their responsibility
to society. With William Mckinley that
love of the w~orkingman which has so often
been the device of the demagogue was in a
genuine sense a part of his political re-
ligion, and il was so with Mark Hanna, who
said, in sincerity, that he would rather be
successful in his efforts to establish a Just
and lasting peace between capital and
LABOR than to be President of the United
States.
Since the death of William Mckinley
Senator Hanna has Inherited much of the
hold upon the love OF the people which the
late President had secured to himself. As
q popular figure he has been the over
shadowing figure of American politics since
McKinley's death. Because he was a figure
unique in American political life, it is no
Disagreement to the present occupant of
the White House TO say that unnumbered
thousands of Mark Eanna's cOuntrymen
had long hoped earnestly for an oppOr-
tunity to join in comforting upon him the
greatest official distinction which can come
to an American citizen.
And yet, what can be said hat better eX-
presses the place which this man held in
the national life than to say that the presi-
dency would have added nothing TO the
career of Marcus a. HANNAH
