WILSON CALLED

Copyright, 1890, by Public Ledger Coz
Administration water-carrlers are
striving TO have it appear that the
White House forced Gov. James NJ.
Cox into making the league OF
nations his chief battle-cry in the
hunt for the Presidency. II IS
related here amid chuckIes and
much self-sufiicIcncy how the Dem
ocratic candidate had to sidctrack
other issues and, in return for
promises Of administration support,
to proclaim the doctrine Of the
league As the OVershadowing ques-
tion OF the campaign.
Accompanying that assertion, which
is not in accord with the facts. is
what appears to be a deliberate pro-
gram Of minimizing the candidate
himself and magnifying the record
of achievement of the Wilson ad-
ministrstion. By the latter method,
the so-Called spellbinders of the
Cabinet and Federal Office holders
OF lesser brilliance have chosen the
one sure way of giving Senator
Warren q. Harding the overwhelm-
ing victory his managers predict.
Newspaper correspondents who
accompanied Gov. Cox on his West
'ern tour found that the one alb
solutely warranted method of losing
votes was for the Democrats to men,
tion the Wilson administration.

positively Yes"
Bear in mind" he continued.
"I do not pretend that the soul
is immortal. But our person
ality persists after the last
breath. after burial, after de-
composition OF the organs. Those
are facts which have received
sincere, unquestionable proofs.
They are manifestations of spir-
