TheLatest In Ohio. THEmiddle-roadsters In Ohio be-^came Involved In a row. day be^^fore yesterday. In their effort to^make the public believe thut tiaiimi^doesn't own them. The proposition in^Ohio waa that all the force* In favor^of silver ahould make common cause,^the practical course to this end was^fusion In support of a stats ticket. Certainprofessions 1 populists opposed^this plan. I'gly whispers war I heard^la the convention at Columbus, those^who opposed fusion koow that, as a^matter of course, they could not do that^without bringing themselves under sus^^picion^the charges against them and^their denials led to a loud dlacuaalon^during which chairs, ranea. Inkstands^and the like were used as arguments^so forcible as to compel the police to^take a hand. Theoretically,the Ohio populist vho^prof eases to be for silver and then op^^poses the only plan wheieby silver csn^get a chance of winning puts himself^under suspicion. Thst is cspeclslly^true in a state where Mr. Hsnns's po^^litical fortunes sre the issue and where^so generous a proportion of the middle^roadsters la made up of men who are^ready and willing to be on Mr. Hanna's^pay roll. But there was more than^mo 11 theory in the case of Wednes-^davy's convention at Columbus. Several^pogsaUats who wanted to fslr snd^square with silver offered to prove thst^Mr. Hanna had actually put up the^money to block the fuaion plan^hence^the chairs and canes and inkstands.^Last pear fusion prt vailed In Ohio's^campaign plans.
