HARDING WORRIES
REPUBLICAN PRESS

Louisville. KY, Sept. s.-whole.
souled and unrestricted support OF
Warren G. Harding, the Republican
candidate for president, is proving a
trying effort for many Republican
newspapers.
With Senator Harding's attempt to
substitute his own plan OF world peace
for the League Of Nations. already
subscribed to by twenty-nine Of the
leading nations OF the world, the ma.
Jority OF Republican press finds severe
fault.
On this point the Philadelphia Pub.
lie Ledger, Republican. predicts that
Senator Harding "will not arouse any
tremendous enthusiasm In this prac,
ltical nation by rallying II to take no.
BILE stand on the rotted platform OF the
Hague Tribunal. the most pathetic
failure in history"
On the same question the st. Louis
Globe Democrat. Republican paper,
disagrees with Harding In his attemp,
TO prove that Polnnd's troubles can be
traced TO the League Of Nations. The
League. /; says, is an experiment that
10 entitled TO every chance to make
good.
Poor old Marlonette" sollloqulse,
the Philadelphia Record. "He ha,
tried to straddle on the isue OF the
League OF Nations and is. clearly
doomed to bad fall"
The Ohio State Journal, Republican
asserts that Gov. Cox makes out o
strong case In his slush fund charge,
that can't be answered BY mere do
malls.
The Crittenden press., 1920-09-17

? William Adams, Jr., adjutant Of the
Stephan B. Whalen Post of the Amer
lean Legion, has accepted the appoint
ment as chairman of the Cox and
Roosevelt Club in Harrison county.
Mr.. Adams Is u member OF the State
Executive Board of the American Le-
gion, and is one of the many former
service men who recognize In the plat
form ana purposes of the Democratic
party those ideals for which they went
to war.

The Crittenden press., 1920-09-17

Is there any connection between SIX
teen dollars a ton coal and the Repub-
lican slush fund? The coal opevator
who confessed at Chicago that he had
collected sixteen thousand dollars
from other coal operators TO help elect
Harding says he was forced to make
these assessments. Are the people be-
ing assessed so much ton Of coal to
help elect Harding? There seems to
be distinct relation between the high
price of coal and the high price Of
elections.
The League Of Nations isn't good
enough for Warren G. Harding to sub
scribe to, but it's good enough for him
to steal from.
Here are q few Of the oratOrical
heavy artillery who have been enlisted
by chairman of the Speakers Bureau,

He has perfected organizations Of Cox
