TOE HEIIOJF OHIO. McKinley Nominated for Governor of Tho Euokeye State Amid Scenes of the Wildest Enthusiasm, EOSAKER MADE THE BPEECH. And tho Gillont Major Thanked tho Con-vention in a Singing Speech of tho Clearest Logic CoLrsmrs.O., Juno 17. Last even-ing the Lincoln club tendered a recep-tion to Major McKinley, which was at-tended by a large crowd, including the loading republicans of the state. Sen-ator Sherman made a brief speech and was followed by McKinley, who re-ceived au ovation when he arose, Sen-ator Sherman having insisted that the "next governor of Ohio" should now speak. McKinley in his speech said in part: "I congratulate you tonight that the republican party of today, lie the re-publican party of tbo past, is right upon etery question concerning the welfare of the American people. It is right upon every one, and 1 cars not what Issue you make, whether it be sound currency for the American people, a protective tariff to promote Ameri-can industries, liberal pensions, or whatever it be, tho republican party leads today, as it bas always led the advanced thought of tha American litieal battles upon which we are enter-ing, and William McKinley jr. is tbo Jo'u Hooker of the republican party, (cheers) and we are1 boys (laughter) who intend to follow him up its stoop and ruirged mountain sides and help him plant the flag of republicanism in n tiiero (applause) and next year, inspired by this achievement, all the columns from Maine to (regon will bo turned against the common enemy. Their lines will be broken and before tho resistless onslaught they will be swept back into the depths of defeat and despair (applause). "I move you, Mr. Chairman, that the rules of this convention be suspended and that by acclamation we nomiuats as our candidate for governor that bril-liant statesmen, soldier and orator. William McKinley, prolonged cheers. Wild frith KnlllUiiaillu Col. Kobert Harlan, colored orator of Cincinnati, seconded MeKinley's nomi-nation "on behalf of the colored voters of Ohio." With wild cheers of anim-ation, the convention declared Major McKinley nominated for governor, and a committee was appointed to apprise him of his nomination and escort him to the hall. His appearance, was the signal for another outburst of enthusi-asm. "1 now have tho pleasure," said the chairman, "of introducing to you your next governor, Wm. McKinley, jr." Again enthusiasm burst forth, and one thousand frantic, cheering, strug-gling republicans waved their hats and fans, pounded with their canes, re-echoed the name "McKinley, McKin-ley." Tbo hero of the day received his honors modestly, simply bowing bis acknowledgements. Ho spoke as fol-lows: people; aad the republican party to-night can look forward with hope and exultation." "I have witnessed today tho largest assemblage of Ohio republicans that ever met in tho state. Their earnest and enthusiastic faces show thow that they mean business and a republican victory in Ohio. I want to say to you tonight that we have not waged a po-litical battle for twenty-liv- e years fraught with greater importance than this year's. It means everything to tbo republic, because it uieaus every-thing to tbo republican party, which is closely related to the welfare of the re-public." Majoi McKinley then went on to eulogi.o Speaker Heed's work of last congress, etc., and speaking of tho as-sertions of tho democrats that they are going to repeal the tariff bill, he said: "They daro not touch ono line of it, for every lino of it is American. They may try it. but you will have it on your statue books when boys of cloven shall bo twenty-on- e and ready to vote. Pro-longed applause. You have not beard a word about McKinley prices since the last election. All I ask of Ohioans is that every man wvito on his ballot what ho thinks, and if ho will do that there will ba no end to tho republican, ma-jority ia .Obia."A..-".-- The second day of tho repub-lican slate convention opened with prayer, after which tho report of tbo committee on credentials "Chairman and gentlemen conven-ventio-i accept the nomination you have tendered me, sensible both of tho honors and responsibility it implies. Tho election this ynar is of unusual im-portance, not only because it deter-mines the practical character of the ad-ministration of the state for tho coining two years, but because it involves tho choice of the legislature whose duty it will be to elect a I'nited States senator, and whoso future duty it will be to dis-trict the slate for representatives in congress under the census and wipe from the statue books the crime against republican suffrage perpetrated by the present deniocralio legislature. Happily wo present a party in Ohio without division in its ranks, without break in its lino. The platform which you have adopted meets my approval. Tho republican party of Ohio ap-proves the administration of President Ilarrison aud exteud to it hearty con-gratulations. The party is in favor of regulated immigration; liberal pen-- 1 sious to our soldiers and sailors, and sound currency. It is in favor of gold and silver; and also paper money basis upon coin, alt eiual and at all limes interchange-able, equal in fact and law. We aro conl'rontod by a real danger, which prudent men of all parties should seek io avert before it is too late.

The com-mittee on permanent organization re-potted the name of General liushnell for permanent chairman of the con-vention. His address was brief. Nominations were tbeu declared in order, and Foraker arose to presunt the name of William McKin-ley for Governor. When be appeared tbo delegates fairly weut wild with enthusiasm. Ho said: Wnat I orakar Said. Gentlemen of the couvontion: I have now a most, pleasing duty to perform. This contest upon which wo are about to enter is to be in some respects of unusual character. Not ouly is tho goeruorship of Ohio at stake, but the contest iu valves moro thau tho gover-norship, moro than the general as-sembly, more than public institutions, it reaches into national politics, a United States senator will depend upon its re-sult, and more important still than all this, it will determine, whether Ohio is to go iuto the great national contest of 1W2 at the head of the republican or at the head of tho democratic column. ApplausB. We shall win this tight, but we must not be content with win-ning it. We must win it triumphantly, decisively and overwhelmingly, and to that end we must select for our stan- - l.pil VifinvAi tha, man wb n ff all .lliar. na piauorm minuses protective tariff. We have protected American products and American labor. So loog as foreign products can ba found to tax which competn with our own in our own market wo proposo to tax them rather than tax our own. The demo-cratic party prefers to tax domestic products ratber than imported. Their tariff legislation would benetit every country but our own. We follow in our tariff policy teachings Washington and Hamilton, and Clay and Webster, and Lincoln and Garfield. They pursue the fallacies of Cobden and liright and Calhoun and the statesmen of the lato southern ccnicderacy. They are pledged new to impede, if they can, prosperity until after the next pres-idential election. That is their mission this year. liusiness dis-asters will bring them sure political defeat. Idle furnaces, dis-mantled factories, silent mines, unem-ployed workniBn and general distress are sure harbiugers of democratic vic-tory. 'They ate discouraging industrial activity through their press and ora-tors everywhere and every day, and it breaks their hearts to see any mani-fostatio-in industrial advancement in tho L'nited States. They swear at every attempt to establish new factories and would gladly frown them down. It is the same sneer which has been exhibited toward ourindutrial en-terprises since, lsill, but in spite of them wo dow lead tho world in manu- - iactures, agriculture ana mining, ami we will prosper under the new law in spite of tho false omens and disparag-ing prophesies. Refering to tho talk among tho fre traders about the increased duties under tho new law Major McKinley said thirty-thre- and one-thir- per cent of them were for the better protection of the American farmer, twenty-eigh- t are upon wiuo and spirits which will hardly burden farmers, live upon to-bacco and agricultural products. No like recognition of aifricultural indus-try can be found in auy previous tariff legislation. "While securing to the farmera home market by increased protoctiou, the re-ciprocity clause is intended to extend his foreign market, and upon terms more favorable than those accorded to competing agricultural countries. It is siguilicant fact that articles which the farmer most frequently buys, bears less tariff than under the law of WHW, and products which he sells bears higher duty than ever before. Turning to state issues Major McKin-ley charged the democratic administra-tion and legislature with depriving a legally elected republican lieutenant-governo- r of his seat without legal con-test; with making an un just and parti-san congressional gerrymander and with unparallellcd exrravagance in state expenditures. Sanator ftharmaa Talfca, Immediately after tho close of Me- Kinley's stirring speech there were loud cries of "Sherman," "Sherman." Tho familure rieureof the senator final-ly emerged from the crowd in tho rear of the hall and again the enthusiastic scones of the convention were rein-acte- In his speech Senator Sherman eulogized the republican party, review-ing its work from the time of its incep- tion. Continuing, Sherman said: "Wo therefore can honestly claim our party has been the faithful servants of the people, and is fairly entitled to their contidence and support, but we do not rest our claims upon this fact fact alone. W invite the strictest 8a raf V can most surely command our undi-vided strength. "His not my privilege to point him out. It is uo man's privilege to point him out; that bas already been done, liy common consent all have turned in one direction, One man there is who, measured by the exigences of this occasion, stands full head and shoulders above all bis com-rades, and thai man is William McKinley. (Prolonged cheers and ap-plause.) There are many reasons why lie should be nominated. In the first place ho has been tried and is no exper-iment. He has been a long time in the public service. Ho has been identified with every great measure of the repub-lican party in bosh Held and forum. His tariff course has been one of patriotic conviction and time will justify this con-viction." Chhers. "This convention today means that oOO.OOO republican voters of Ohio got together and are proud of their party and its principles, proud of its repre-sentation in official place, in both state and nation. We aro proud of that con-servative, patriotic man, Gereral Har-rison, who sits iu the White house. Cheers and applause j We are jiroud, too, of that brilliant magnetic states-man who has taught law to Kurope with respect to America James G. Blaine. Prolonged cheers, and g for over a minute. We are proud also of tho representa-tion of Ohio in tho cabinet of the presi-dent of the L'nited States, in the person of Charles F'osler. Applause.

The section burned over extends from .Shrewsbury river to the ocean. Among tliu buildings burriod were tile postullice, two hotels, tho Methodist church, srlioolhouse, and tho steamboat and tolephono building.
