not come true. Both. candidates were
compromises between bosses and politi-
cal machines. We have substituted poll
iicians for statesmen.
Mr.. Harding. a reticent. conservative,
negative type Of individual. slow to take
the initiative. but capable Of making
judicious decision when the situation
arises. is the Republican candidate. MIR.
Cox. a thoroughbred politician, agrees
i've to the limit, very positive, decides
and then seeks the cause afterward. u
man who does things with his whole
soul. man who goes out to see thing
through and generally does it. is the
Democratic nominee OF the two men
Mr.. Cox is perhaps the strongest per-
sonality.
In the acceptance speeches Of the two
candidates neither Of them was definite
on where he stood.
However. Mr.. Cox is for one thing
very definitely. He is for the League Of
Nations as Mr.. Wilson brought it from
France. He does not favor the resera-
lions that are designed TO safeguard
American rights and American princi-
pies.
As soldier who fought in the late
war for what | thought would some day
help to bring about the peace of the
world, and as one who would like to see
peace above anything else, and as a citi-
zen who dreams Of that brotherhood Of
man which we all hope for, cannot
vote for the man who pledges the United
States to assume the tremendous obliga-
lions thrust upon US as a member Of
the League Of Nations, without in some
way giving the American people some
degree Of independent action.
Mr.. Harding has set forth a definite
program Of agriculture. He promises CO.
operation with the farmers. As a person
who is interested in the welfare Of the
rural sections Of our country l again
favor Mr.. Harding. Mr.. Cox. as yet.
has mentioned no such program.
Mr.. Cox. at the very beginning of his
campaign, has stopped to what think is
the lowest form Of politics. First he
attacked Mr.. Harding personally. thing
that should be below the dignity Of any
candidate for political Office. Second. he
has been charging the Republicans as
trying to buy the presidency. He is still
making one personal attack after another
upon MIR. Harding. As yet. Senator
Harding has said nothing that would
seem derogatory to the character Of Gov.
ernor Cox.
Then because think Mr.. Harding will
be progressive enough to give us an ad.
ministration of business and efficiency
at home, and because I think he is ideal.
istic enough and far-visioned enough to
deal intelligently with foreign problems.
and because ! think a change in party
rule will do the country good, / shall cas-,

;mnon ant issue in this election. II Is an
,,,emv, to put an end to the great world
.rs America went into the war with
,his in view That is the reason why
We depa-ted from our policy Of staying
ON this side Of the water and allowing
r,,one 10 take care Of its own Affairs.
Nas that the war is over and we have
successfully completed the FIRST stage Of
our big job. it is up to us to put the
I.,,,,e across and try at least TO put a
stop to all future wars. The Democratic
party fiyors this.
The financial achievements Of the
Democrats are a factor worthy OF CON-
s;derstior, in considering the principles
of the e uarty and its accomplishments.
Tn. Fede raj Reserve Act is generally
admitted 10 be the force which, is pre-
yentjng the great number Of brink fail
ures which used to be so common in
the Uni,ed States. The Farm l oau Act
is making it possible for the ia rmers Of
the Nation TO put themselves on sound
footing and 10 make themsel ses land
owners instead of tenants. ihe many
price regulations which were put on
during the war have helped to steady the
market in many ways and have helped in
keeping the prices Of commodities Of all
kinds at a lower figure to the consumer
than they would otherwise have been.
The Democratic party fasors a ma.
tionaI budget to govern the governmental
expenses from year to year. AT present
the spending machinery Of the govern
mcnt is entirely separate fsom the rev.
enuc-collecing machinery and conse-
quenlly money is spent without regard to
the income at all. This is a measure
which has been talked Of and discussed
for wears. but as yet no party has ever
accomplished much along this line. The
Democrats proclaim that they wish to
establish budget for the government at
Washington and l think that it is one
Of the most important reforms which can
be made.
On the many questions such as agri-
cultural interests, labor and industry,
improved highways. merchant marine and
others. the Democratic party has shown
itself to be capable Of passing wise leg
islation in regard to the different prob
lens. That is more than the Republican
party has shown in the past and the
Democrats should be put in po'Scr again
THIS fall to carry on to a conclusion the
many good projects which they have be-
gun.
Harding and Cox are not. to my mind.
the strongest men which could have been
put up for the presidency by the two
parties. Consequently the platforms Of
the two parties should be considered
mere closely. Harding has Shown him
self to be man of the machine and does
not have a great deal to say in regard
to the big questions which are before us.
Cox, although he has said that he does
not know just what the solution will be
for great many of the problems. has
shown himself to be a man who has the
courage to tackle the problems and to
work them out TO a conclusion. He is
the more aggressive of the two men and
is the man who should he placed in the
