measure and a dozen minor issues
are Involved.
The mayoralty contest is be-
tween Hiram c. Gill, republican,
wide-open town advocate, who was
recalled one year ago, and George
F. Cotterill, a progressive demo-
crat, who for twelve years has
been identified with the good gov
ernment forces. In the primary
election two weeks ago Gill had a
lead over Cotterill of 10000 votes.
The anti-Gill votes, however. were
divided among three candidates, OF
which Cotterill was the highest.
Gill comedies that the contest to-
day Will be close. He admits
that Cotterill has practically over
come the 10000 handicap, and
betting, which was $40 to 81
against Cotterill the day after the
primary, is today down to even
money.

saying
There is no envy in the hearts
of Ohio Democrats. they delight to
honor the distinguished sons of other
states whose names have been pre-
sented to this convention for nomi-
nation TO the presidency Of the
United States. But in availability. in
merit In mental, In moral equipment,
in the union of every quality of lead

not yield to any, for there stands the
most commanding figure in the public
life of this land today
Legitimate industry will not halt,
honest business will not tremble,
but the sluggish currents of com
merce. and trade will leap and bound
responsive to the pulsations Of a
new life when his nomination ana
election are announced, while trust
and monopoly then will know that
their death knell has been sounded
for the sympathies of this great and
good man are centered about the
short and simple annals Of the poor.
"Ohio now names as your nominee

liant son of quiet dignity, superb
poise and spotless life. pre-eminent
