Cox Says He Is For
Enforcement of Laus

KANSAS CITY, Mo, July IA let
ter written by Governor James NJ.
Cox, of Ohio, Democratic nominee for
president, to John H. Pollock, a Kan
sas City attorney, stating his position
on law enforcement was made public
by Judge Pollock Tuesday.
The letter dated Columbus, Ohio,
June %, 1920, was sent in response to
an inquiry from Pollock 1t says:
"I have read YOUR letter with in
terest- The question before us now
is law enforcement AS the cOnstitu-
ton and statute stand, they are the
expressed mandate Of the people, and
must be respected by public officers
and citizens as long as they remain
There is no difference between
neglect Of the law by public officers
and an attack against our institutions
by the Bolsheviki.
I'VE contend, and properly so, that
there is no need of revolution in this
country because we have the govern
mental facilities to change the exist
ing order by rule Of the majority but
we hardly can produce the proper at
titude among aliens, unaccustomed
TO our ways, if public officers close
their eyes to their oath and obliga-
ton"

The experience of Mr.. E. j. Tou-
pallk, 1888 Rose street, Lacrosse.
Wisconsin, is chiefly remarkable
on account of the length of time
he was afflicted.
He writes; Il have been suf-

hoarse | could not speak for six or
eight weeks. l could get only tenn
porary relief.

used three-fourths of a bottle, the
hoarseness was gone, ralso that
tired feeling. l am on my second
bottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA will
be constantly in my house. 1t is
the best medicine ever put up for

For any disease due to catarrh

IS equally dependable. Coughs,

PORTlA
(Copyright)

Shakespeare called one Of his most
charming and lovable heroines by n
name which has a singularly unpleas-
ant significance. Portia is translated
from the Latin to mean "of the pigs"
1t comes from porous, the Roman
word for swine, and the Porcii we're
breeders of pigs, according to the ag-
ricultural designations of the old Lat
in. But the Romans did not scorn that
particular beast and thought nothing
of bestowing its name on several 9th
err clans.
CatO's daughter was called Portia.
or, as the Italians spelled it, Porzia
Her fame brought the name into great
popularity in her native land. Shake
speare took il for his play:
"Cato's daughter. Brutus' POrtia.. "
In The Merchant of Venice. he
uses the version which he coined
to name the lovely heroine who de-
feats the crafty Shylock and saves
her lovers life. Like Juliet, Portia is
beloved as an ideal Of woman!y beau
ty and her name has ceased to be
regarded as A fanciful creation and
now ranks with the feminine appella-
tives commonly bestowed
The Sapphire is Portals talisma mic
gem. It is said to attract for her
divine favor and to preserve her from
all evil. Friday is her lucky day and

The Diary of an Engaged Girl

July Ill have been fairly swamp

my friends, and yet have not become

Mother and Nanny asked me at
breakfast today if they might come

said yes. What else could I say?
Dear creatures, they consider me

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am eighteen
years old and going with a young man
.hree years my senior. He lives in
another town and is going there soon,
He wants me to go along and visit his
mother
We are not engaged, but know he
loves me. He is working hard and saw
ing money and | know that when he
has enough he will ask me to marry
him.
My father says 7 cannot go to his
home. What do you think?
DOUBTFUL.
Your father Is right. It would not
be wise to visit in the young mans
home since you are not definitely en-
gagged, Besides. the invitation should
come from his mother.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: A certain boy
has been calling on me for about two
months. Lately he began to tease for
a photograph of me. which I refused
10 give him. One morning after he
had been to see me l noticed that my
photograph had disappeared from the
piano When I asked him about it he
looked innocent and said he had not
taken it. I know he did take It.
I like this boy very much and so do
my parents. Father laughs about the
picture and thinks it is a good Joke.
How can I make him give Is back to
me? Or should l let him keep It?
MADGE J.
Perhaps you had better say nothing
more about the picture since the
young man says he did not take It. OF
course he lied, but it is a playful lie
since he knows you know the truth
1t Is a matter which should be for
gotten rather than to give It too much
importance.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have be
come so tanned that I look terrible
At first I thought it would be fun to
get good and sunburned, but now I
have had enough Of It. Please print
a bleach for tan.

Bachelor Girl Savings

A woman may have the courage to
mount platform and shout for liberty
but she hasn't the courage to do 1t
in a last years hat.
Husbands motto: When in doubt,
deny everything
Life Is a fascinating motion-picture
drama. Fate writes the scrip-but you
are your own "director"!
A woman's idea Of "economizing" is
to rip up something useful, in order
to make something ornamental-a
mans, to do something he needs. in
order to buy something he ought'nt
to have.
Every man is merely a composite re-
Election of all the women he has
known; his mother, his sister, his wife
and the ten or hundred girls who
have tried to remodel him.
Men claim to have infinitely more
foresight than women-but there never
was one OF them who thought to look
for the towel before he got his eyes
full Of lather.
The mere act Of marrying a woman,
and handing over his freedom, his
name, and all his bachelor comforts in
return for kiss, Is the most sub
timely unselflsh deed of a mans life
and sometimes the only one.
An eligible bachelor is a body of
vanity completely surrounded by
women, An ineligible bachelor is a
mass of obstinacy, entirely surrounded
by suspicion. A confirmed bachelor is
a collection of habits fortified on all
four sides by eternal vigilance.
In mans mind all women are di.
vided into three classes; those he has
kissed, those he cant kiss-and those
who keep him wondering.

understanding with him, the fact re-
mains that after looking over all theI
other positive and potential candi-
lates they stuck to Cox through thick
and thin. Through all the weary
days of balloting his solid ranks con-
tinued to be delegates from wet COM
nunities. Their dogged, unbending
captains continued to be those bosses
of unsavory political machines.
What William Jennings Bryan
and ether important convention fig
ures thought and said about that sit
uation is what millions of American
voters in as we'll as out of the Demo-
cratic party are going to think and
say about it. Although the Governor
of Ohio was flirting with Bryan, the
great Commoner thought and said
that Cox was the disguised candidate
of the liquor element trying to pussy
foot support out of dry delegates.
Now, the American people never
like a candidate who will not stand
straight up on his two feet for or
against any national question. Gov
ernor Cox, since San Francisco, is
under the mistrust of both the drys
and the vets; for if the general public
cannot abide a straddler the vets will
not trust a gutter. After the early
wet intrigue and the later conven-
ton triumph of the professional
bosses who stamped out McAdoo and
Palmer to thrust Cox into the nomi-
nation, it is doubtful whether Cox
could gain the confidence of the drys
even with a flat declaration against
any wet policy. But by MS lodging
the issue to placate the bone drys
Governor Cox also is in danger of
earning the scorn of the wet public
as he earned for a time the wrath
of the wet Muprhys, Nugents and
Taggarts.
AS we survey the equivocaI position
in which Governor Cox is left by the
circumstances of his nomination we
have no doubt that he would be far
better off to show himself to the
whole nation either as wet as the wa
ter of the river or as dry as the hun
ter's powder.
When all is said and done, however
Governor Cox may be expected to put
into this contest both speed and
power. He has shown himself a hard
campaigner and a good vote-getter,
1t is no ordinary Office seeker who
can win and hold Republican seat
in Congress and win thrice over the
Governorshlp OF leading State
which is normally, traditionally and
famously Republican. 1t is no ordi-
nary administrator who can conduct
the business affairs of that American
commonwealth term after term to the
satisfaction of its taxpayers and vot-
ers. 1t is no ordinary citizen and
man who, whether through the handi-
work of the wet bosses or Whatever
cause, can get himself accepted by
one of the two great political parties
to be its candidate for President of
the United States.
Nevertheless, it is the Judgment of
The Sun and New York Herald that
while the contest is going TO be hot
one, fierce one, Senator Harding
will prove himself, in Ohio as in the
nation, the victor at the polls.

Governor Cox, Democracy's Choice
To Meet Senator Harding.


The Sun and New York Herald
(Rep.) says:
James M. Cox, nominated fol-
President by the Democrats, has been
a celebrity in Ohio ever since he
captured there Republican Congress
district. In his subsequent achieve
ment of winning the Governorship OF
Ohio three times, with one defeat, his
fame has assumed respectable propol
tions in the Middle West. In the
long drawn out, stubbornly contested
and bitterly punctuated San Fran.
cisco convention he has become well
known to the people Of the United
States. And the way he has been
projected before the eye and mind OF
the national public is well worth con.
sidering from the point of view OF
both what counts for strength and
what counts for weakness.
The nomination of Governor Cox
is intended, for one thing, to make
of Ohio, with two Of her sons heading
the opposing tickets, the Chateau
Thierry of our national campaign of
1920. The deeper and more cunning
purpose of his hackers from the very
first, however, was to drive wedge
into strong Republican territory Of
the East which is supposed to have a
desire to modify drastic prohibition.
But there is more than a possibility,
there is strong probability, that
this strategy of the particular Demo-
Gratis responsible For the Cox nomina-
tion may break down and break down
badly here in the East, as it almost
certainly will in the nation.
Governor Cox was the original
choice of the preeminent machine
bosses like Murphy of New York, Nu-
gent Of New Jersey, Taggar: Of In
diana and Brenha1 Of Illinois. These
professional bosses, these very men
who under no circumstances would
permit the nomination Of McAdoo or
Palmer, are repugnant- 70 the rank
and file of their party outside of their
own States: They centred upon Cox
and no secret was made of it, because
they expected he would come out in
the open for a wet platform, wet
campaign, sld, in the event of his
election, wet administrative and
legislative programme.
But, whether because he was dis
turbed that his candidacy should be
promoted in the convention by those
bosses disliked in their own general
party, or whether he grew faint
hearted on the liquor issue itself, Cox
would net permit the Murphys and
Nugents and Taggarts to blazon bold
ly on his convention banners the wet
coat of arms.
In their disappointment with Cox's
trimming on what to them was the
one issue, they made no attempt to
mask their willingness, if a more cou-
rageous candidate would be developed
to throw Cox overheard into the deep
est and coolest water they could find
But, whether they could not unearth
a wet candidate with no less strength
but with more nerve than Cox, or
whether they finally reached secret
