Nine-tenths of the women, says

The other tenth will tell their hus-

we put you in that select decade?
Over in Indiana they have fixed

There are stranger things II

of worrying?
A Paris woman speaking the other

ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN PAPER
OPPOSED TO HARDING

Always regarded as the most Re-
publican of newspapers, the Spring
field Republican, of Springfield,
Illinois, is decided unfavorable
to Harding. "Mr. Harding's cleo
ton could not possibly promote pro
gressive causes. Gov. Cox's record
as Governor of Ohio is the record Of
a progressive or nothing. If the
country wants reaction it won't elect
Cox. The fact that all the leading
followers of Mr.. Roosevelt of 1912
are with the Democrats this year.
indicates the choice that the true
progressives make between the two
candidates."

WHY DEMOCRATS SHOULD CON
TRIBUTE

tBy George White, Chairman Demo-
cratic National Committee)
Do you believe in Democracy? Do
you believe in the League OF Ma
tons? Are you a supporter OF James
NJ Cox and Franklin D. Roosevelt?
Then YOU are the person whose
help we need.
We are having it? Yes; and we
appreciate your moral support and
The vote you are going to cast Tor
the ticket. While that is OF hrst
importance, it is not enough.
If YOU believe in the principles
for which this fight is being made.
you want those principles to prevail
This is tremendously big coun-
try. 1t is estimated that no fewer
than 3C,OOO,0G0 people will vote IN
the November election. They all arc
not in touch with the sources OF IN
format ton that are open to you. In
many sections of the country ther"
are virtually no Democratic newspa-
pers. Many thousand of voters are
able to know but one side OF the
campaign, unless special effort is
made to present the other side to
them.
What we need and must have is.
the money necessary for legitimate
expenses, TO cOunteract the mlsstate-
ments, the Misrepresentation and SO
make this appeal for funds. II we
send out speakers, if we send out III.
erature it costs money, and our only
way to pay these expenses is for the
people who love the things for when
we fight to send us their checks. II.
a few thousand people among the.
millions who will support our cause
with their vote would contribute to.
our campaign funds until they felt.
they had denied themselves TINS.
spirit of sacrifice would show In Ger.
tain victory. The only reason That
the plain citizen may vote against
us is because we haven't taken 10
him the message. We need your
financial help to do it.
