IT LOOKS LIKE TWO OHIO MEN

Chicago, Jape 14.—Republican leaders today began to plan then' presidential campaign on the assumption that William G. AcAdoo would be nominated by the democrats at their p national convention inSan Francisco June 23. Prominent democrats; .here enroute to the coast declared , the situation in their party had not srystalized sufficiently to permit even a guess as to the probable nominee. Attitude of republicans in 'picking the nominee for the democrats illustrated in the speech of Charles S. Wheeler, San Francisco attorney, who nominated Senator Hiram- Johnspn last week. He bitterly attacked the democratic administration ahd asked if the Republican party by refusing to nominate a “surerwinner” wished to. continue the “Wilson, dynasty” by placing .“the crown pnnce” m the white house. L • , _ .McAdoo, who has refused t« peropen campaign in his behalf, arrived here last night from; active participation in the councils of his party, is expecting to spend the period of the democratic convention in New Ybrk City. Republicans have even-gone so far as to, assume that James M. Cox, of Ohio,, would be the democratic choice for vice president. » Cox, however/ is McAdoos most formidable rival for the presidential nomination. He has more instructed delegates and is known to have the backing of powerful party leaders.
