to be the same old great city," where

Mr.. Alathers said that the chief

politics, and that the favorite son is
Cox. Three Of the leading papers, he
asserts besides numerous others, are
strongly in favor Of Cox, both in
their editorials and otherwise. The

says.
Labor and Capitalists for Cox
Mr.. Mathers came into contact with
leading politicians of New York City,
and learned that both the laboring
classes and the capitalists are for the
Democratic nominee. The laborers are
for Cox because his administration as
governor Of Ohio has been fair to
labor and they have confidence in
him. The moneyed interests are for
him because they desire that com

the relations of other countries who
