!. would take eighteen months to transport
900 600 men overseas, He declared that
more men landed every month than his
military critic said could be transported
in eighteen months.
I'VE transported overseas IN eighteen
months 1000 900 men and brought the
I war to an end, and yet they are not sat
ished" he said. THE transcendent griev-
huce in the minds of republican politi-
clans is that Almighty God brought on
war and left them sitting on the bleach
ers
President Wilson prevented the Vic
tors from carrying away the loot Of the
war. That is why he went to France. If
he had not, God knows how soon we
would have been in war again.
MALIGNANT ENVY
AGAINST WILSON.
There is a monster of mali nant envy
directed against Woodrow Wilson. One
senator wrote in a jubilant mood that the
president was hopelessly stricken. That
Is one Moses who should never have been
taken from the bullrushes."
In telling of the delay In ratifying the
peace treaty, Gov. Cox told OF converse
? ton with the king of the Belgians in
which the king said he was compelled to
tell his people that they had no work
because they had no raw materials due
to the necessity of waiting on America
to ratify the peace and bring affairs
back to normal.
Gov. Cox told of the objection of
Senator Lodge in 1899 to any necessity
Of President Mckinley going to Spain
with the objection that the treaty was so
severe that the congress would not ratify
1t, yet, he said, Senator Lodge desires
that President Wilson go to Germany
and do this very thing.
DECLARE PEOPLE
WILL NOT PERMIT IT.
''woodrow Wilson will not do it. The
American people will not permit it, he
! said
The seeming acquieseence of England
to the Lodge proposal is due to duress,
Gov. Cox said. He pointed out that the
pound sterling is at its lowest ebb in the
history of England. He said that unless
the treaty is ratified and civilization and
commerce can progress, there viii be
surplus In America, bringing about
crash and financial calamity.
y England does not have six votes in
the league of nations he said Britain
has six votes. It will stand to the
credit of Great Britain that the empire
was not dismembered when there was
the opportunity. Canada's dead were
more than ours. vet they say Canada is
not entitled to a vote. Any political par
ty which desires to gamble with the tears
OF humanity deserves to die"
POINTS OUT TWO
RADICAL MOVEMENTS.
In speaking of industrial unrest Gov.
Cox pointed to the fact that hundreds of
thousands of aliens were brought to the
United States to work in factories and
that no attention was paid to their Amer
Plantation. He said the men who ask
I for state troops to operate their facto-
ries are reaping the shelves OF a har-
vest which they themselves have sown.
Gov. Cox said there are two radical
movements in this country-the move
ment of those who desire to destroy the
] government and the movement of those
who refuse to pay heed to progress and
call upon soldiers to carry on their af-
fairs.
The democratic party believes in eyO-
luton rather than revolution" he said.
If you keep the fires of evolution burn
ing there viii be no fear of revolution.
The democratic party has lived because
| 1t is founded on the fundamentals of
Justice, of equal justice for all and spe-
\ ,ial privilege for none"
HAS NO FEAR OF
RESULT NEXT FALL.
Gov. Cox declared there must be poIiti-
81 cal parties and that nonrartisanism is
menace. He said he holds no fear as to
the result this fall. He declared that
if every disloyal vote had been eliminated
there would have been a democratic con
Gress in Washington now.
I'VE find viii Hays offering $1,000 for
some genius to write a platform for fine
republican party. He has named a com
mittee of III, but he has not called It
together I hope he does not call II to-
gether in Ohio for troops would be
necessary to settle the fight which would
#ensue."
He concluded with the assertion that
I the democratic party will not be guided
by exrediency but by principle.
