The wet reactionaries at the state convention, held in Dayton in 1910, saw that they would have to make some real concessions to the discon- ; tent: And that’s how Atlee Pomerene, now U.S. senator, took .the stage in i looked around for a man who had never taken a drink in his | life, never smoked a cigar, never cussed a cuss word, never missed a; Sunday at church. and who had never } taken orders from the wets or the! railroads. “i Picked Pomerene. | “Pomerene of Canton is the ideal! man to’ put in the ticket with Har-j mon,” they s “He's been. identi- fied for years with the Tom Johnson , crowd of reformers trom Cleveland, | and the r. and file consider him | one of the original Bryan men.” So they cornered Pomerene in a little room under the stage in Memo- rial Hall in Dayton that hot; sultry July afternoon. Pomerene paced the floor as he lis- tened to the words of the committee of bosses. “But [ donjt want ‘to go,on the tor lieutenant-governor,” he “T have no ambitions along that line. |The next Ohio’ leg ture may be Democratic. If it is I want to be a candidate for, the Senate.” The bo s looked at him pityingly but they didn't lay their cards on the table. They told him that his clec- tion as lieutenant-governor might help that candidacy.» However, they were very careful not to pledge him sup- port for the Senate. Pomerene Elected. So Pomerene was elected licutenant- governor of Ohi And then the fun began. The legislature was overwhelming- ly Democratic and a Democrat «would be elected to 1 the Republican, Charles. F, Dick, in the United States Senate. The result has hardly been known, ; however, before the biggest Democrat- ! ic boss in the state, Edward M. Han- ley of Dayton, the Democ chairman, announced himself Senate. He had led the movement that had put Pomerene on the state! ticket a few months before. | Then every other boss in the state, | big and little, declared himselt fo Hanley and the strength of the Demo- ; cratic state organization was swung for the big ‘boss. For a few d it looked like al walkaway for Hanley. For his cam-] paign manager he choose a_ rising} young man from /Dayton,} who, in the tem years since that time. has three times heen} elected governor of Ohio and is now! a candidate for the Democratic presi- dential nomination. | Nobody of any consequence was for| Pomerene for senator. Hanley Discovered. i Then the newspapers . discovere that Hanley was the Ohio agent’ foi big gas and oil interests and was) identified with nearly, 20 other finance) and public utility corporations. Hanley was o vulnerable that the; Democ! c le; eisigtors didn’t dare to vote for him, Pomerene, the pious, the good, the! upright, the just, the serious-minded, | fell direct heir to the storm of anti-! Hanley sentiment and on the firsti ballot, in the Democratic caucus, he! got the nomination for the U. S. Sen- ate. Out of the 90 votes in the cau-! cus, Manager Cox could muster only, 10 for Hanley. i So Pomerene went to the United tic pleaded. that heaven was on his side, He be-. came a staunch Wilson supporter. Pomerene was opposed FOr re-elec- | arms—Ww ell, Hon in 1916 by former Governor Myron Herric The betting up to ele tion day, was 3°to 1 in favor of Herrick. However, Pomerene snowed Herrick under by 36,000. Peculiar Back ‘ Pomerene has a peculiar kind of strength with Ohio Democrats. No- body ever wasted any breath shouting for him; likewise no Ohio Democrat would ever think of saying “Dammit”; in his presence. He’s so ponderous, so absorbed with what; he thinks are heavy, weighty matters of state, that ne never has time tor levity, laugh- ter, or slaps on the back. Pomerene is an Ohio product—b6rn | in Holmes county 56 years aga edn- cated in the common schools and at Vermillion Institute and later grad- uating / from Princeton. , He. began practicing law in Canton in 1885 and was elected prosecuting attorney there in 1896 while Willtam McKinley of Canton was being elected Republican president.
