DAYTON, Ohio, July 31.--Intercst in
Governor CoX's speech accepting the
Democratic nomination for President
centered to-day on that portion Of it
which did not go TO the printers and
which will not be given out in advance
Ten thousand words, more or less. Of
the acceptance speech are in the mails
tonight directed to newspapers Of the
country. The speech will not be re-
leased for publication until next Satur-
day when elaborate notification
ceremonies will be staged here
A proclamation by Mayor Switzcr
to-day designated Saturday legal
holiday in Dayton. These 10, 900
words are not the important part of
the speech those in the confidence Of
the nominee assert. The real heart Of
the address will be found in the secret
portion, said to be approximately 200
words as now contemplated, and which
will not be made known until expressed
by the Governor on notification day.
When Cox announced that he was
withholding about 200 words of his
speech until the address was made it
did not create any unusual amount Of
comment. The Cox statement that it
was withheld in order to have some
thing with a "news" value in the
New-York tribune., 1920-08-01

speech was generally accepted. But in
the last few days the feeling has been
growing that there is something ore
than novelty behind the intontior to
withhold part of the address.
Will Deal Generally With League
The League Of Nations and prohibi-
ton are the two outstanding issues be-
fore the nominee. Those who usually
can forecast what Cox is to do are pre-
dieting to-day that the speech Of ac-
ceptance will deal only generally with
the league issue, and even more gen
orally with prohibition. The reference
to the league will be laudatory, yet
with hint Of restraint that will give
satisfaction to reservationists, those
friends of Cox state.
In this way, by not being too specific
Cox hopes to avoid jarring the sensi-
biltics of any Democratic faction.
Cox said that his speech of accept
ance contains nothing intended TO he
a reply to Richmond p. Hobson," the
Alabama Anti-Saloon League leader
who demanded that Cox say fatty
whether he advocated increasing the
alcohol content of liquor beyond one
half of one per cent This statement
is taken to mean that prohibition is
not to be the subject of the mysterious
two hundred words, and it is confident
ly predicted that tho League OF
Nations will not be the subject.

Washburn Opens Harding
Campaign in New Jersey
Predicts Strongest Cabinet Since
Civil War When Republican
President Enters Office

SPRING LAKE BEACH, N. j.. July
31.-Thc Harding campaign was opened
in New Jersey to-day when Stanley
Washburn, who has been selected by
Senator Warren G. Harding to partici-
pate in his speaking tour of the coun-
try, addressed about 800 men and
women Of the Republican party st the
home Of Samuel Heiiner here.
Mr. Washburn went to Russia with
the Root mission. He served later as an
intelligence officer on the Western
front He held the rank Of major dur
ing the war. lie promised his audience
that after Senator Harding took Office
as President the nation would have the
etronrest Cabinet it had seen since the
Civil War.
"Wha, wc must aim at now" Mr..
Washburn said. "is the return to
the normal, and before we can
take a single step in that di-
rection We must realize that in

Palmer Says He's Sore
At Convention Outcome
Attorney General Believes He
Could Have Been Nominated
but for McAdoo's Obsiinacv

Special Dispatch to The Ttrbuc
STROUDSBURG, Pa. July Sl.-At-
torney General Palmer believes the
persistent candidacy of William G. Me
Adoo for the Democratic Presidential
nomination at San Francisco cost him
(Palmer) the biggest prize in the
Democratic convention.
The Attorney General discussed the
convention situation informally at his
home here to-day.
Il am a game loser" he declared, but
note of bitterness ran through his
conversation. He said he is sore
about many things said about him in
the newspapers, particularly about the
report that he is to resign as Attorney
General.
Not only was there bitterness in the
Attorney Generals tone, but there was
q definite lack Of anything like the
pep" which marked the Palmer of old
when he led the militant forces Of the
reorganization Democrats into vic
torious battle with the Gutfey bi-
partisan machine.
This was indicated when Mr.. Palmer
was asked if he would attend the for
nal notification of Governor Cox
'"I don't know" replied Mr.. Palmer
Il may; | don't know. When is it?
Oh, yes, next week
The Attorney General made it clear
that he did not want to be a Prcsi-
dent maker; he wanted to be President
ut has been said" it was suggested,
"that you could have put McAdoc
over; that your candidacy prevented
the Pres dent's soA-in-law from get
ting the nomination."
Mr. Palmer AGAIN bit on his smoke
less cigar, looked straight at his ques-
toner and countered with this query
Did it ever occur to you that I
could have been nominated if he had
turned in for me? ?"
New-York tribune., 1920-08-01

That leaves great many issues
upon which there is u great deal Of
speculation. Following his visit at
1'railsend, Senator David I. Walsh Of
Massachusetts, said that "thc League
Of Nations can be completely ignored
during the campaign, without injury
to the party's chances" and that an
"an:i-proiitcering" stand would be cx-
trcnely popular From this has arisen
con lecture that some outstanding do
nestle issue is to be the subject of
the guarded two hundred words.
Cox Wants to Spring Surprise
This much seems certain. Cox will
spring surprise, perhaps very great
t,t:prise, when he reaches the secret
portion of mis- address. He said to-day
very frankly that he wants to make
the subject something his opponents
and no one else have ever thought
about; something forocful, with a
strong popular appeal, that can attract
q united rather than a dividend DemOc-
racY.
Whatever this proves to b~, the
mysterious two hunrded words al
ready have served purpose. They
have convinced the public here that
the League of Nations is to be kept
as much in the background as pos
sible and that prohibition will be
even more IGNORED and avoided by the
Democrats during the campaign. Cox

Tax Commissioner George Henry
Payne, who intends to enter the Re
publican primaries as candidate for
United States Senator in opposition to
Senator James w. Wadsworth, issued
statement yesterday in which he
says that Mr.. Wndsworth will be de-
fcated at the November elections if
he succeeds in winning the nomination.
Senator Wadsworth has forced his
friends to saddle on the Republican
party in this state,' said Commits
sioner Payne. "a record so reaction
ary, so pcrvcrse and so contrary to
the spirit of these democratic times as
to be almost unbelievable.
''I appeal to the sane. broad minded,

state from the calamity of his nom-
nation | appeal to every Republican

himself or herself organization or in

GARRISON GETS PLUM
Will Be Named as Private Secretary
to Gov. A. A. Taylor. :. -.

Several names have been mention
ed as probabilities for private secre-
tary to Governor reject A. A.. Taylor
| for his coming term. All specula-
tion has been allaycd by it becoming
known that A. L. Garrison. of Cross
vile, is to be named for the place.
Mr.. Garrison is at this time run
ming ageneral store here, but his
father, J. S. Garrison, will likely take
that incharge. Mr.. Carlson was
twice elected floterial representative
from this district and made the race
for the senate two years ago, bu,
failed of election by small majority.
He held the office of trustee of this
county two terms, that being the first
public office to which he was elected,
being young man scarcely of age
when first elected. During the ad-
ministraton of Gov. Ben w. Hooper,
he was chief feed and seed inspector
under Capt T. F. Peck, who was
commissioner of agriculture.
1t is generally understood that
Capt. Peck played an importan part
in having Mr.. Garrison selected for
the important position of private
secretary to Gov. Taylor. Mr.. Garri-
son was not an active candidate for
the place. Some two weeks ago he
was called to East Tennessee and the |
question was gone over thoroughly |
and resulted in Mr.. Garrison accept |
ing the place.
In every capacity that Mr.. Garri-
son has served the people he has

BIG HI Y" MEETING
At Maryville College Two Days of
Nent Week.

Older boys from every town in this
section of Tennessee are to be invited
to spend three days at old Maryville
College, getting a sweeping, birds
eye view of what's going on in the
world, during the Christmas Holidays.
Under the direction of the State
Boys Work Committee of. the Young
Mems Chris tan Association and with
the full cooperation of the Faculty
and Student Y. NJ. c. A. at Maryville
College, representative boys from
practically every high school in east
ern Tennessee will spend the time
from December 3Ist to January end,
finding out what there is yet to be
done in the world, and further, nnu-
ing out some practical ways OF doing
them.
"World Outlook" is the general
theme of the conferenc. That, howeV-
er, does not mean that ordinary prob
lens will not be discussed. There will
be several splendid addresses, but
each of these will be followtd by a
general open discussion of ways and
means to raise the standards of in
tellectual. social, physical and moral
standards of every school.
In addition to an elaborate banquet
with witch the Conference will opn,
number of other good times have
ben arranged. Practically all of Sat-
urday afternoon will be given over
to athletics, under the direction OF
one of the foremost Physical Direc-
tors of the state. In all probability
there will be at least once exhibition
game of basket ball as we'll as other
match games.
Registration cards are being sent to
the local schools. in order that every
school in this seton will have a
chance to be represeentated.

PANAMA CANAL TOLLS
More Than Operating Expenses, But
No Cash Profits. ,

Much is heard in the papers of the
profits of the Panama Canal" says
the Republican Publicity Association.
through its President, Hon. Jonathan
Bourne, Jr. !
in the last fiscal year it is stated
that tolls collected exceeded expenses
by $2,387,5oo. That is all very wen,
but it does not represent profit in
any sense of the word.
In every business establishment
the first consideration is to earn
enough money to pay interest On the
investment, and the next is to put
money into amortization fund or
else right off a certain amount de-
probation each year. After those
items are cared for then it is time to
think of profits, deducting, of course,
the cost of operation.
In reporting on the Canal no ac-
count whatever is taken of interest
or amortization. If they were con-
sidered, the so-called fixed charges.
would be many times the receipts
from tolls.
Liz Sdhdl was not Dullt, HOWCNCT,
as a money making institution. but
rather as better means of defense
of the two coasts of the United
States, and as an aid to American
commerce and to that part of the
world. 1t is successful in those re-
spects.
In fact, it is not conceivable that
in the future the Canal may enable,
the rapid concentration of our feet
1t threatened pont on one coast or
he other and save the nation from
disaster. Viewed in that light the
Panama Canal venture is big eco
ionic success.
1t is a mistake to lead the peopie
o believe that few million dollars
IN one side or the other of the led
,er in the matter of tolls and opera
ion costs amount to anything. They
hould be led to look at the project
n the light in which it was conceiv-
ID, and in its proper relation to our
economic welfare and national
afety."
