Columbus, Ohio, May 1o.-Untt May
81, the day on which all delegates from
this state to the Chicago convention
will be chosen, Ohio will fairly sizzle
with politics. The state becomes the
great battle ground Of the campaign.
for the feeling is widespread that here
is the field upon which the probably
decisive battle of the campaign will be
fought.
Among the larger states Ohio is the
last to choose her delegates. She
cannot by her decision, therefore, ex-
ercise influence on the popular choice
have done. But she can have an even
weightier effect on the final result.
This is so because there are many I'M
Instructed delegates and probably will
be a considerable larger number by
the time the pre-convention campaign
closes. Then there is a big block Of
southern delegates -@Bread and butter
delegates, so called-who win not hest
tate to disregard instructions and vote
for the candidate whom they think
viii stand the hest chance to win in
November.
If President Taft should carry Ohio
by an enormous majority, by as great
a margin according to the number of
votes cast as Roosevelt carried Illi-
nois, the moral erect of his victory
would be strongly felt at Chicago.
The national Republican committee,
which would have to decide the nu
merous contests, would be Influenced
by the result: so also would the un-
instructed delegates and the southern
delegates. A Roosevelt victory in Ohio
would have exactly the opposite effect
