BEATEN CANDIDATE SILENT
Election Over, Majority
Rules, View of Day
ton News.

Dayton, Ohio, Nov. 3.-No formal
statement on the election was issued by
Governor Cox Wednesday but his news
paper, the Dayton News, published an
editorial under the heading "The Elec-
ton Is Over"
1t read:
"The election is over and the citizens
of the United States are glad that it is.
Feeling ran high during a national cam
paign but the moment the decision of the
electorate is announced, the thought in
the public mind is that of pleasure, that
the event has passed. The spirit of
America is that the voice of the ma
jority must rule in the nations affairs.
From this traditional standpoint there
must be no departure now. Figures as
socated with the election results will be
studied and conclusions reported in the
course of time. There will soon be re-
turn to our customary pursuits as a
people. The period of congratulations
over, a victory will merge presently with
the prompt obedience of our citizenship
to the mandate Of the men and women
who this year formed the majority"

Commoner Says Wilson
Started Job, Other
Finished 1t.

Lincoln. Neb, Nov 3--In a statement
Wednesday W. J. Bryan placed what
he termed the bame for Democratic de-
feat about equally between President
Wilson and Governor Cox. The presi-
dent. he said, ''laid the foundation for
the disaster and the governor completed
the structure"
The statement said:
"The American people want the gov
ernment to play its part in the abolition
Of war, but they are indifferent as to
whether we are part Of a league or part
of an association of nations. There is
nothing in name but everything in a
sentiment. The real issue presented by
the Democratic party was not whether
we should cooperate with other nations
interested In peace but whether we
should assume moral obligation which
had no weight except as it suspended the
right of congress to act independently
when the time arrived for action.
"The nation will do its part in aiding
to prevent war, but it will not surrender
into the keeping of any foreign group
the right to determine when we shall
declare war.
Governor Cox, instead of repairing
the injury done by the president. aggra-
vated the situation by the manner in
which he avoided domestic issues and
the position of the Re-
publican party on the league issue, which
he declared to be paramount"

LATE NOMINEE
To MAKE TOUR
Of OLD WORLD
Plans Are Intended to
Investigate Many
Conditions.

Dayton, Nov. 3.-Governor Cox. the
defeated presidential candidate looking
forward to the time he will surrender his
office in January, announced Wednes-
day that he was considering a trip abroad
early next year to study conditions in
Europe. Meanwhile. he said, he planned
to work and rest. leaving here for the
state capital on Friday and starting the
middle of next week for a hunting trip
in Mississippi
Today found the governor apparently
in the same mental state as when he
watched the returns Tuesday night
bringing in continuous unfavorable news.
His smile was still apparent tonight and
the mass of kilograms seemed unanimous
in declaring he had made good fight"
The governors first act Wednesday
was to send a congratulatory message to
Senator Harding, in which he volunteer
ed las a citizen" to support the nation s
chief executive in whatever emergency
might arise"
No formal statement was made by the
governor and his newspaper, comment
ing editorially, did not attempt to analyze
the returns. 1t was the governors mes
sage to Senator Harding that carried the
defeated candidates formal concession
of his defeat. Little in the belated re-
turns served to soften the sting of de-
feat. or the flrSt time IN the governor s
political career, his home county of
Montgomery, including this city, went
against him. Senator Harding carrying it
by about 5000 plurality Middletown, in
Butler county. where he lived as boy,
also went to Senator Harding by five
votes. but the county itself gave COM
Portable edge to the governor.
II have not had a chance to travel
much" the governor said. Il began
work quite young and / think I'll soon 60
to Europe to study conditions there
The governors voice seemed rather
husky, worse than at any time during
his campaign and he explained that 1T
must be due to letdown of the vocal
chords"
The governor also said that he was
framing a message to the
state assembly regarding his observa-
tions of conditions in the state which, he
said require constitutional changes.

LEAGUE Of NATIONS
CAUSED DEMOCRATIC
DEFEAT, DEBS SAYS
Socialist Attributes Vote to
Covenant Plans Though Fix
ing Influence.

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 3.-"There never
was any doubt about the result of yes
terday's election" Eugene V. Debs, So
cialist candidate for president, said in a
statement Wednesday.
f'The fate of the Democratic party
was sealed at the Versailles peace con-
ference. One thing was made clear by
the election returns-President Wilson,
Attorney General Palmer and Postmas-
ter-General Burleson now know what the
American people think of their despotic
administration.
But unfortunately the people have
not profited by past experience. They
need not look for Improvement in con-
dtions as result of the election. Wall
street still is in the saddle under Hard
ing. as it was under Wilson.
POLITICALLY speaking, the American
people have the cheerful habit of jump
ing from the frying pan into the fire
and back again"
The Socialist nominee added that "So-
cialism will flourish like a green bay
tree under the Harding administration"

Ottawa, Nov. 3.-Editorial comment
IL the press of Canada reflects the view
that the Republican landslide in the
United States is forerunner to de-
cided change IN tariff relations between
the two countries.
In we'll informed quarters here the
probability was discussed that the
new congress ut Washington would null
hfy the reciprocal clauses OF the Under
wood tariff law insofar as they relate
to foodstuffs, thus closing the way to
free wheat, wheat products and pota-

que of Nations voices q hope that there
will be sufficient influence behind the
new government to put the limited
