SPEAKER CANNON
FOR PRESIDENT
Republican State Central Com
mittee Calls Convention and
Passes Resolutions.

Springfield, H., Feb. 1S.-The Repub-
lican state central committee met this
morning and adopted resolutions en-
dorsing Joseph G. Cannon for the
presidency. and fixed March 96 as the
date for holding the state convention
in this city
President McMurray, Alderman FOw-
Ter and other Representatives of the
Taft club of Chicago appeared before
the committee to ask that provision be
made for a primary vote on president.
Colonel George Buckingham of Dan
vile, speaking for Mr. Cannon, said
that twice within four years the state
convention had declared Mr.. Cannon
the choice of Illinois for president; that
80 per cent of the Republicans of the
state are for him. and that Mr.. Can
non would not hesitate TO submit his
claims to primary vote if that were
practicable.
Mr. Cannon believes" said Buck
ingham, that the Republicans of each
district should be left to select their
delegates in their own way"
Roosevelt Endorsed.
The resolutions adopted by the state
central committee, after endorsing the
policy of President Roosevelt ''in adj
ministering even-handed justice to all
the people of the United States, with
out regard to persons, and in the char
acter of his recommendations to- the
congress-" proceeded as follows:
I'VE invite the attention of the coun-
try to the well known fact that with
out the cordial earnest and constant
support of the Hon. Joseph G. Cannon,
as speaker of the house of representa-
tives, = it would have been impossible
for the recommendations of the presi-
dent to have been enacted into law,
and that the policy of the Republican
party as manifested by the president
and enacted by the congress, cannot be
better carried out and continued than
by placing the administration of the
same in the hands of the man whose
authority and influence has been second
only to that of President Roosevelt
himself
The resolutions close with a formal
endorsement of Speaker Cannon for
president.

According to the elapsed time and
the distance covered since leaving Pun
ia Arenas on Feb. s, il is evident that
the American battleships are proceed
ing at the rate of about ten knots an
hour. At this rate they should reach

slow down and enter the harbor early

BRYAN TALKS TO
OHIO ASSEMBLY
Subject Was the Guaranteeing
of Bank Endorsed
by Central Committee.

Columbus, O.. Feb. 1S.-William> j. Bry-
ans visit to Columbus today was signal
lied by the Democratic state central COM
mittee unanimously endorsing his candi-
dacy for the presidency. The committee
made provision in the call for the state
convention by which the. voters of any
county in which there is a registration
city may express their preference for a
candidate for presidency Dy having the
name of candidates printed on delegate
tickets. This action was taken at the re-
quest of Hamilton county Democrats who
favor the nomination of Judson Harmon
of Cincinnati former attorney general of
the United States under President Cleve-
land, for the presidency.
Address to Legislature.
After luncheon Mr.. Bryan addressed the
general assembly in joint session in the
hall of representatives on the subject of
guaranteeing bank deposits. He was heard
with marked attention.
Tonight Mr.. Bryan was the sole speaker
at dollar dinner given at Memorial hall
under the auspices of the Democratic
members of the general assembly. Twelve
hundred persons were seated at the tables
and twice that number had seats in the
galleries Mr. Bryan's subject was The
Point of View
a Issue of the Campaign.
Mr.. Bryan, IN an interview here today.
said:
Il can't say just how much President
RoOsevelt's attitude has had to do with
the present financial disturbance If his
inVestigat tons or recommendations have
tended to squeeze the water out of
Watered stock the blame should fall not
on him. but on those who have watered
the stocks. NY criticism would be that
he did not commence soon enough to
storm the fort. The great questions to
paign, 1 believe said Mr.. Bryan. ARE the
trust, the tariff and these railroad ques-
tons. But one issue runs through all of
these. however. and that is shall the gov
eminent be administered in behalf of all
the people or for the benefit of a few of
the peoDle?''
