At the convention in Cbi- in 18D6, which resulted in tho nomination for tho first time of William Jennings Bryan for the presidency, Governor Campbell was strongly mentioned for tho nomination and on several ballots received a number of complimentary votes. He continued throughout thc'ycars bis active participation in the councils of his parly. It is said that it was principally through his g'inoraK hip at San Francisco in 1920 a ho presidential nomination went to James M.

Cox of Dnyton, another Butler county, hian; and hat his strenuous efforts at the. Now York convention in 3024 had much to do with the shaping of the policies of thai convention and the jvcniir.il nomination ot John Davis. While, as above staled, his death was unexpected to his friends and associates, it had been expected for some time by members of his immediate household. Signs of failing health have- been evident for some lime, they said, especially since his attendance at the national oonvenlion in Now York last summer when in his labors ho overtaxed his strength.
