what the people OF Ohio have done. 1t
represents victory not only for the
plain people Of the republican party
but for every good citizen, no matter
what his politics, Ia profoundly con-
cerned with our victory because we
are fighting his battle All morning
Roosevelt received kilograms from all
parts Of Ohio from friends and sup
porters telling him the results In In
dividual districts and cities. He also
received telegrams from almost every
state, offering congratulations.
