COLUMBUS, o., Jan. 22.-One hundred
million dollars to buy the presidency and
establish a government of "bayonets and
dollars" is the aim of the republican pa-
tional committee according to Gov.
James NJ Cox of Ohio, democratic presi-

ut is not a political problem as much
as It is a commercial problem" That's
what republican campaign fund solicitors
told Cincinnati millionatres after Chair
man VIII Hays Of the republican national
committee had addressed a meeting Of
representatives of Cincinnati financial in
terests.
This statement, coupled with the ap-
pearance of Hays at other meetings or
Ohio capitalists, and subsequent rumors
of large donations to the Golfers of the
G. o. P, are the foundation for the dem
ocratic charge that 1.-THE United States
government is to be placed on the auction
block and knocked down to the highest
bidder" ~.
Seventeen metal industry magnates OF
Cincinnati donated $12.550 after the Gin
cinnati meeting, according to the state
ment Of the metal trades solicitors con
tanned in a form letter addressed to their
associates.~ Nine Of the seventeen gave
checks for 81 600 each.
SAYS TOTAL COLLECTED
WAS MORE THAN $4,000.
w. W. Durbin, democratic state chair
man. claims that the total collected at
this one meeting, from all industries,
was more than $4,000, and that the drive
was only started and is now In fuIl
swing in every Ohio city.
Hays wants 100000 in Ohio" Durbin
said. "That IS q rumOr that has not
been denied by the republicans. We
hear on every hand that the national
fund is to be S100,OOOOOO."
1--WE are again facing a crisis in the
history of our country" reads the form
letter addressed to the Cincinnati metal
men, (which must be met by strong
and sane government a large fund must
be raised Immediately, largely for the
purpose Of an educational campaign to
stem the tide Of socialism, radicallsm,
ETC. which is making every effort to
overthrow our existing form OF govern
ment This situation was so clearly pre-
sented and so impressed those at the
meeting, that the committee is gratihed
to repors the following contributions"
Then follow the names OF seventeen
wealthy metal manufacturers Of Cintin-
natl and the amount Of their contrihu-
tions ranging from 81 600 to $3.50. The
national committee established a rule
that campaign contributions must not
be in excess Of 81, GOO, and, according to
the democrats, this rule is being evaded
by Ohio's old guard through the use
Of dummies who make contributions in
their own names for others.
The letter concludes with the state
ment "This is your problem as much

SEEKS 4 BONUS

Editor The Times-T have been looking
over the papers for the last six months
in the hopes OF seeing a bonus for the
Indiana soldiers, but I think we are out
of luck. 1t looks very bad to see the
states on all sides Of Indiana giving
bonus, but not Indiana.
] don't see why some Of the people
don't get together and help the soldiers.
1t makes a fellow wish he had never
seen the state when the men IN the out
ct that are getting a bonus start to
talk Of the state, and say that they are
a bunch or cheap skates. There are only
two Of US in the outfit that are from

and equitable to all classes of society"
Gov. Cox declares that by the accu-
mutation of huge "slush fund" the
republican committee imperils the safe
ty of the nation.
ACCUMULATION OF "sLUsH FUND"
IMPERILs NATION, SAYS cox.
"There has been nS denial Of the
charge that the republicans are moblliz-
ing the wealth of the nation for the
campaign" said Gov. Cox.
1.-TWO reasons prompt the donations.
Big business Tesents the Wilson policy
which thrust the burden of war upon
those who would most benefit by war.
Second, big business wishes to buy,
as 1t believes can be bought, Industrial
peace. Dollars and bayonets, that win
be the pOlicy-dollars to elect an admin
istration in harmony with the method of
settling industrial disputes with the
bayonet.
1.-THE radical capitalist who believes in
the free use Of the military is as bad as
the radical allen" says the governor.
To-day the republicans are keeping alive
racial prejudice, appealing to every alien
element, playing upon its real or fan
cied grievance against the administra-
ton"
The "slush fund" Gov. Cox believes, is
to be used to purchase every avenue of
information in an effort to control public
opinion"
Democratic papers are being sold in
many sections" says the governor, land
