PRESS COMMENTS.
REPUBLICANS WHO SURRENDER.

Something moro important than CON
fusion il expected TO develop from the
Republican uproar In regard TO Senator
Hardings attitude toward tho League
Of Nations. We have Messrs. TAFT, hoot.
Hughes, Lodge and Wickersham on one
side insisting That the candidate, In spite
OF his words, will accept tho covenant
with fcw notifications On the other
side we have Mcssrs. Bornh, johnson, La
Toilette and Brandegeo proclaiming, hls
invinoible purpose to reject tho whoic
program. :.
What the authors Of these stupid dis-
putes evidently hope TO accomplish ~ 10
hull tho people into forgetfulness of tho
yawning ohasm that divides Their party,
They agree on nothing but their desiree
60 win the election. If all were true md
honest tho fight which they want to post
pone until the close Of the polls, but which
can have only one end, would be in progress
at this moment, with defeat straight
ahead
There is only one way to Judge the fu-
ture Of these noisy gentlemen and thht Is
by their past Some of them have the habi,
OF bullying. The others arc acoustoned
to submission. On three memorable occa-
sions Borah and Johnson have forced their
Republican associates 10 capitulate. hey
did il in the Senate when they loaded tho
treaty with reservations making ite re-
jention certain and then voted ngains,
it. They did il at tho Republican National
Convention, whereby threats OF boit
they compelled the adoption Of straddl-
ing platform. They did it again when tho
campaign opened, by compelling soma
tor Harding TO repudiate the League M
| the price Of their support on the stump;
| No other American party ever wac ooercee'
10 systematically. The main body OF hepuD-
lioanism stands today with a pistol at

ears in falsehoods and evasions and all

retreated Hughes has retreated. hoot
has retreated Lodge has retreated. WICK
Graham has retreated Not one OF them Is
ablc or willing to face the political maraud-
ers who have intimidated them, their
marty and their candidate into complete

A Vote That Favors Cox.

Governor James NJ. Cox has received
nearly two-thirds Of the votes cast IN
poll conducted BY The Independent In its
issue Of October %, the magazine tells OF the
wide response il received 20 its invitation
that its readers not only indicate their
choice Of the Presidential race, but that
they write. giving their reasons
Senator Harding has 30 per cent OF the
vote, in comparison 10 66 per cent cast Tor
Governor Coz. The odd two per cent are
divided between Eugene Debs, Socialist
and Aaron Watkins, Prohibitionist. hf
doe. not include very considerable num-
brr Of voters who are stln ''on the fence
Practically al the Cox letters lay stress
on the League Of Nations as the foremost
issue in the campaign and the issue which
decided the writers vote Many OF the
writer. say they regard Governor Cox ne
personally more aggressive and progrcs-
sive than Senator Harding Many on
them say they have always voted the
Republican ticket but propose 70 bolt It in
November.
The Independent quotes extensively
from the Letters. The total number OF
votee is not stSsd. Hamilton Holt
editor Of the magazine, is himself an inde-
pendent IN politics who is strongly foi
Governor Cox.

Vllsiny Bound - Reset.

This week open cd with the appearance
Of Two especially vicious and vindictfve
efforts by partisan Republicans TO belittle
Governor Cox and turn voters against him
that arc bound 10 react In his favor. One
already has reacted BY inciting IN indig-
nsnt protest against vile resort TO ssc-
rilege for partisan benefit, in the form OF
personal contribution Of $25, 900 to the
campaigr, fund Of the Democratic National
Committee.
The donor OF this generous contribution
to riChteour cause is Mr.. Allan A. Ryan of
New York City, and he was aroused to
such effective action by a scandnlous car
toon printed in the current issue OF Hnr-
vey's Weekly II represented Governor
Cox trying to hang a picture portray1ng
'Uncle Sam" as "the greatest hc-angei
with lampoon of the Sacred Heart oi
Jesus enveloping his figure, and bearing
the inscription: PROF. Wilson's League OF
Nations The Immaculate Conception
This gross dctiling of what Mr. Ryan just
ly calls "the purest article OF Christian
faith !" is Indignantly denounced by him. ms
it will be by every Christian man and
woman who believe in the divinity OF the
Savior of Man.
The other bit Of partisan ranoor ana
vindictivcness was the most amnsine IN
clusion of political editorial in favor OF
Harding's election, accompanied py
partisan cartoon Of 8 grossly insulting
character. in the current issue Of That's sup
posedly non-partisan publication, the
Saturday Evening Post. The cartoon pre-
scented Governor Cox As a nevsboy seilins
papers containing fake" news Inc
animus of this outrageous violation on
faith with thousands Of readers 10 found
in the bitter enmity Of the pu blisher o.
thus and other publications against the
Democratic national admin strstion be
cause he has been compelled TO pay Ia rgei,
increa.ed rstes for postage, although ever
under these enlarged rntee the governmen
Ks losing money on the service.

Cotton Night-Riding.

The lavless proceedings Of the tobacco
country night-nders won II great part
Their object The tobacco sales became
moro or le-s matter Of what is called
collective bargaining The man VINO
could raise and sell with profit great
quantities at low price was terronEed
INTO growing only the quantity per acre
and selling at the price per pound that
Offered profit TO less industrious farmers or
those cultlvatlng poorer farms. Now
comes an extension Of the night-riding idea
20 the Southern cotton belt Those who
carry II out doubtless hope TO gam their
poipt. as the tobacco night riders did.
The disturbers wish that cotton should
sell at 40 cents a pound, the approximate
TOD war level, in spite Of the changed
economic conditions They have no clear
idea Of the determinants that set the price
level They doubtless believe in the wide
,pread fallacy Of the country and the day
that some arbitrary person sets prices TO
suit his own fancy; insthls corruptive be-
lief they have perhaps nearly half Of their
countrymen for company. Unknown and
supposedly evil agencies put the cotton
price down, they argue; why not then
themselves force it up?
The tobacco night riders obtained sue
cess because they opposed q closely con
oentrated buying power itself suspected Of
belief IL this fallacy that prices went by
the Will Of the buyer OF seller But in the
cotton market no one seriously attempts TO
set prices The figure is matheInatically
indicated by the intersection Of marginal
supply and demand. To scare the supply
away from the market will IN this case
quite possibly prove such difficult pro-
cess and involve so much terrorism that
the resulting stoppage Of business and
credit and the loss of resources Will impel
the cotton region to stop it, lest there be
greater loss than even Accent cotton
would repay.

THE COVENANT.

The test is here Of our exalted claim
To superfnenees in this, world below.
Do men today higher honor know
Than those strange creatures, all IN
known TO fame,
That lived in darkness, ere suspicion
came
OF human progress7 Are We superfine
In all our instincts, purposes, DESIRES
Or do not they, the masses, stlu incline
Toward rapid heating by the primal flTes
That lead to warfare and to hatred
shame?
The time Is here TO prove our high
estate,
Our Wanted boast Of spirits nooieI
planned;
Humanity, Peace. Liberty await
Proof of the height mankind has no"
attained.

The most difficult load the Republi-
cans are carrying now Is not Harding nor
Johnson, nor Borah II is Senator Lodge
He is its most powerful, most peervsh and

marked personal success for him. Under

Everywhere he revealed himself frank !,
alert, vigorous. His main speech, in the
evening before great audience in Madl-
son Square Garden, was spontaneous, di-
rect and convincing. He was not in
the least thrown off his balance by ques-
tions. 70 all he made ready and sufficient
answers. And in his chief appeal that the

IL Cecil county, Md, seven new voting
districts have been provided for the ac-
commodation Of the enlarged vote under
Equal Suffrage But in Delaware the Re

any additional conveniences for the wo-
men voters. They will compel the latter TO
take chaDces with the men in the heavily
congested districts on election day.

Conditions must indeed be getting
desperate for the Republican party in
lower Delaware when its managers deem it
adv isable to keep the Negroes away from
their public meetings by advertising the
latter for white Republicans only.
What the Negroes may think about the
invidious distinction is something else.
