DEMAND FOR LEAGUE
SWEEPING COUNTRY
Cox Tells West Virginia Crowds
Republicans Are Having Trouble
With Their Meetings.
by Associated Press to Every Evening

Kenova. w. Va, Oct 26.-Governor
Cox closed his West Virginia campaign
here today with another appeal for the
League of Nations and statement that
the churches, labor and women were to-
gcther in the movement which, he SAID,
was sweeping the country.
A wear ago former President Taft, the
governor said prophesied his present view
of the situation.
"I desire to pay Judge Taft tribute,
he said. "Ie has the gift of prophecy.
Speaking just about a year ago IN West
Virginia. he said that labor would endorse
the League of Nations because of its
labor provisions; that the churches would
endorse it because it is right; and then II
the women were given the vote they would
all be for il because Of their abhorrence
for war; and in the last week it is perfectly
apparent that Judge Taft correctly VS.
ualized the future.
From pulpit and congregation comes
the same story Of religious fervor. NO
class has been reading the league more
industriously than labor. ! found miners
in the mountains of this state thoroughly
familiar with il: and the Republicans
are having trouble with their women q
meetings all Of which bears eloquent
tribute to Judge Taft's foresight

willing to accept five reservations In case
the Senate desired. These five rcservn-
tions, shall not quote to you in full. They
mny be found on page 1922 Part Vol. 80,
Congressional Record, Second session.
Sxty-sixth Congress.
REswRvArIoNs ACCEPTED pY PRESIDENT.
They cover the following points:
More precise wording of the withdrawal
right re-asserton OF the fact that so
called domestic questions are exempt
from jurisdiction Of the League re-state-
ment Of the fact that our Monroe Doctrine
as interpreted by u.s. is not impaired by
our entrance into the League that the
advice mentioned in Article y ~ only
advice, which may be eccepted or re-
jected as we see fit, according To the CON
science and Judgment Of the Congress IN
being Mt the time, the Congress alone
having the power 10 declare war and,
finally, n reservation excluding all the
votes of the British empire when tho
whole or any part of that empire IL CON
cerned in any dispute.
The President was willing 10 take
these reservations, rs is disclosed by hls
published letter to Senator Hitchcock
But the Republicans of the Senate de-
feated them.
But why talk about reservations now
The Republican nominee has taken a
position which makes discussion of reser-
vatons irrelevant. for he has said that II
he Ind IL to do over again he would not
vote for the treaty even with the reserya-
tions he and his colleagues framed and
voted for Further. at Dos Mones lowa,
on October 7. he said referring TO the
League of Nations covenants, do not
want TO clarity these Obligations want
to turn my back on them. II Is not i'lter-
probation, but rejection that am see tlng
Therefore il Is apparent that Senator
Harding has joined the irrcconcilabies

are opposed 10 the League of Nations

STREETS AND SEWERS.
Various Matters Considered at Board
Meeting Today.

At the meeting of the Street and Sewer
Commissioners today communication
was received from the licensed Taxicah
Association, requesting the board to take
some action in regard to the condition
of the Pennsylvania railroad bridge at
Front and French streets. The communL
cation said that filth, acid, coal and other
dirt falls through the bridge, running
the cars which are parked under It and
also soiling the clothes of passing pedestri-
rians. The board instructed the secretary
to notify the Pennsylvania Railroad Co.,
and request that same action be taken.
Following investigation of the sewers at
Third and Lincoln streets the board DC
cided to deny the claim for damages made
by Crasten Grace. Grace keeps store
in the basement of building at Third
and Lincoln and claims that his goods were
damaged by high water on October 10.
II was claimed that the department
drainage specifications were not complied
with. The sewer was found to be stopped
up with sticks. leaves and other rubbish
and was cleaned out and freed an hour
after the complaint was made the Board
