The following interviews with Zanesville men who are prominent in union labor organizations appeared in today's Enquirer:John A. Voll, member of the National Exeoutive Board of Flint Glass Workers I am for John R. McLean for governor of Ohio, and I think the Democrats should nominate him at the eoming state convention to be held in this city, tie, uniiKe a majoruv wealthy men, nae maae mi muuej iaarit.tme.tAi. Whenever there has been a battle between labor and capital The Enquirer has invariably taken a decided stand In favor of labor. For thatreaBon.li for no otner, jonn . McLean should be nominated and elected Governor of unio- mere i no other man in Ohio today who is nnarer the hearts of the laboring peo ple than John R. MoLean. He has been our friena at times wnen we netted juet such a friend as he Invariably proved to be. I don't think Jones will be nominated, but If he is I will support him cheerfully."

He is a good waver usmocrat, and showed it in 1896. He Is one or the greatest rich friends labor ever hd n, ni will hnvn. He has alwavs been of material assistance to labor organizations all over the state, ana the Enquirer has always championed the cause of labor. I am satisfied that Mr. McLean supported Bryan in lo)a, and nrill dn an airain in 1900. and com mon sense teaches me that the national ticket's chances for suooess In 1900 will be Increased 100 per cent if John R.
