OHIO REPUBLICAN TICKET.
Got* Nash Renominated —GJ $.6 of tho Platform. The Republican convention of Ohio at Columbus Tuesday nominated the following ticket: Governor, George K. Nash; lieutenant-governor, Carl L. Nippert; state treasurer, Isaac B. Cameron; attorney-general, John M. Sheets; judge supreme court, L. E. Emerson; board public works, W. G. Johnson. The platform adopted says in part: “The principle of protection has achieved its most signal triumph in the results of the Dingley tariff law. It has given us marked prosperity at home and a rapidly growing export trade, which are the envy of the world. The Republican tariff policy has made the farmer and laborer more prosperous than ever, and no legislation should be permitted which will imperil the interests of either.’’ On trusts and other issues it says: “We recognize the right of . both labor and capital to combine when such combinations are wisely administered for the general good, but combinations which create monopolies to control prices or limit production, are an evil which must be met by effective legislation, vigorously enforced. The only legislation national or in Ohio on this subject has been enacted by the Republican party, and that party can be safely intrusted to deal with this problem.”
