RICHMOND TEAM
LOSES HARD GAME

There was some base ball game
Monday at Mt. Vernon, according
to the opinion of every member of
the Richmond base ball team,
which opposed the Mt Vernon
team as one of the features to the
Fourth of July celebration. There
were nine innings of real base ball
during which time there were two
scores made by the home team.
while a cipher denoted the inabil-
ity of the Richmond aggregation
getting around, but they playel
base ball just the same. The team,
managed by George Mccoy. is the
first one that has held Mt.Vernon
to this score this season and it is
believed that the local team could
win from them if given another
chance. This will probably come
with a game booked for Rich
lnond in the near future.

BIG COURT DAYS
LOOKED FOR SOON

The sale of horses during court
day Monday was very slow and
the prices low, according to the
many who had both horses and
mules for sale, there being but
little demand for either at this
particular time of the year. 1t is
evident by the sale that the horse
has not finished his seasons work
and there will not be any giving
up of horse power for the time
being. 1t is,presumed that a
month hence, when the summer
work on the farms has been COM
pleted in the way of field work,
there will be a great demand for
both horses and mules and that
the court day next month, and es-
pecially that for the month of
September, will bring about nu-
merous sales. Many Of those
bringing horses to the city for
sale yesterday returned home
with them before nightfall. they
realizing there was no demand.

STORY OF COXgs LIFE
By Associated Press,

James Middleton Cox was three
times governor of Ofio-an hon
or enjoyed by only one other Ohio
Man, Rutherford B. Hays.
Born on a fam. educated in the
public schools, a printers devil,
school teacher, a newspaper re-
porter. a private secretary to a
congressman, owner, manager
and proprietor of two newspapers
and member of congress for three
years and three times governor
of his state is his record to date
Business success paralleled his
political achievements and thru
his own efforts Cox has amassed
a fortune. Mr.. Cox became the
leader of the Democratic party in
Ohio in 1912 when he was noni-
mated for governor AS one who
had brought radical changes n
the state constitution, he took the
field in its behalf. His first term
as governor was devoted chiefly
to forwarding the enactment Of
laws to put the new state cotlsti-
tuition into effect
But Ohio evidently was not
prepared to assimilate all tl.esnew.
laws, for Cox was defeated Tor re-
election But his party renor'i mat.
ed in 1916 and he was re elected
for third term in 1918, being the
only Democrat to win in Ohio.
Legislation for which Govern
or Cox IS best known includes a
model workmen's compensation
law and a child labor law which
have been extensively copied by
other states. Educators of the
country say the Ohio school code,
enacted under Governor CoX's di-
rection, will live as a monument
to his achievements.
Mr.. Cox was born in Butler
county, Ohio, in 1870. He attend
ed district school and held his
first position as teacher of the
school in which he took his first
lessons. He spent his evenings and
holidays in printing office. In a
few years he received his first as
signment on the reportorial staff
of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
After ten years with the. En-
quirer, he went to Washington as
ia private secretary to Congress
man Paul Sore, of Ohio. At the
close of this service, he purchas-
ed the Dayton Daily News, bor-
rowing most of the money to pay
for it. Later he purchased the
Springfield Daily News. He was
first elected to congress in 1908.
He recently purchased the farm
near Jacksonburg upon which he
was born and is making it into a
modern farm home where he ex-
lpects to live on retirement from
jpublic office He married and has
! four children.
