THE SITUATION IN OHIO
Fight Will Decide That States
Presidential Candidate.

Great importance is being attached
by politicians and political writes to
the republican campaign now on 10
Ohio and which will terminate at the
primaries this year. The result OF
this election, it is believed, will de-
eide who will be the republican can
didate for president in 1908.
Senator Jos. B. Foraker Is at pre-
sent the ruling power in Ohio and is
bidding for the presidential nomi-
nation. lie is a past master Of
political science and strong man,
and he is supported by his colleague,
Senator Dick. Foraker has taken
issue with President Roosevelt on a
number of questions and should he
secure the nomination for president
1t will be only after hard struggle
against the president and his policies.
President Roosevelt desires to see
Secretary w. H.. Taft made his
successor as chief executive. Taft is
an Ohio man and has been put for
ward to lead the hosts in the fight
against Foraker. Should he fail to
win out at this falls election he will
not be likely to receive the republican
nomination for president in 1908 for
1t is political precedent that the
nominee for president must have his
home delegation with him in the
national convention. II Taft wins
he will have that support. II For
aker wins he will have it.
On the outcome Of the issue 10
Ohio depends whether President
Roosevelt shall succeed himself
Should Foraker WIN, the fight in the
national convention will he between
Roosevelt and the Foraker forces,
while Taft, by being defeated, would
be eliminated as presidential posi-.
bility.
That is the situation as it is forecast.
ed, not taking into consideration the
remote possibility Of the democrats
taking successful advantage of the
split in the republican ranks and
carrying Ohio this fall. Such con.
tingency would PROBABLY put Foraker
and Taft out OF the race in the re-
publican convention.
