Who's Cox?

James Middleton Cox was three
times governor of Ohio-an honor
enjoyed by only one other 0hioan
Rutherford B. Hays.
Born on a farm, educated in the
public schools, a printers devil a
school teacher, newspaper reporter
a private secretary to a congress
man, owner, manager and proprietor
of two newspapers, member of con-
gress for thre years and three times
governor of his state is his record to
date
Business success parallelled his po-
litical achievements and through his
own Efforts Cox has amassed for
tune Mr.. Cox became the leader of
the Democratic party in Ohio in 1912
when he was nominated for govern
or. AS one who had brought radical
changes in the state constitution, he
took the field himself in its behalf
His first term as governor was de-
voted chiefly to forwarding the enact
ment of laws to put the new state
constitution into effect.
But Ohio evidently was not prepar-
ed to assmilate all the new laws for
Cox was defeated for reelection. But
his party renominated him in 1916
and he was reelected for third
term in 1918, being the only Demo
crat in Ohio to win.
Legislation for which Governor
Cox is best known includes model
workmen's compensation law and a
child labor law which have been ex-
tensively copied by other states. Ed
ucators of the country say the Ohio
school Code enacted under Governor
Cox's direction will live as a monu-
ment to his achievements.
Mr.. Cox was born in Butler coun-
ty, Ohio, in 1870. He attended dis
trict school and held his first position
as a teacher Of the school in which
b eteok his first lessons. He spent
evenings and holidays in a printing
office. In few years he received
his first assignment on the reporter
ial staff of che Cincinnati Enquirer.

RUNNING MATE
TO 0BEPICkEDAT
NOON SESSION

a national scandal to the ruin of the Democratic
party.
They know there is no chance to nominate
him, the kilograms continued, but hope to bring
about situation where they can deal off the dele
gates to some candidate where their jobs will be
protected
Judge Moore expressed the opinion that Mr.,
McAdoo would not be party to such deal and
urged that In his own and his partys interest he
wire to the convention forbidding the use of his
name.
The result of the Georgia caucus, after Pal
mer release OF his delegates it was reported was
to give Is to McAdoo Massachusetts, it was re-
ported, would throw most of her SO to Cox While
the caucuslng was going on, the floor of the con-
vention hall took on the aspect of country fair
ground with lot Of electioneering going on Here
and there was speaker a chair making stump
speech tor his favorite candidate with an admrinp
crowd about him. One speaker would try to draw
the other fellow s crowd forward after the manner
OF a ballyhoo man a midway. Some of the dele
gates called for order and start of the balloting
he McAdoo forces reversed the order of the
progression in the balotng and took the lead in
the 3Oth ballot. McAdoo had lost the lead to Cox
the 9th ballot Saturday
For moment, when Indiana tumbled in %
of her 80 and Tom Taggart himself cast the ballot
it looked as if forecasted slide to McAdoo had be-
gun When little later Washington, which had
been scattering her votes cast them all for McAdoo
the McAdoo people were sure the movement
on, but it was too late in the ballot to do any
good.
The Cox people, probably little nervous but
protesting the confidence which the outcome lust
flied, sent word to their horses to stand pat and
refuse to be stampeded. The word was effective
and the blocks which have been the Cox standby,
were unmoved. The lines held fast
An attempt at recess during the earlier part of
the session drowned out in shouts of
disapproval
When Palmer on the 35th ballot hit higher
mark than he had at any time since the Ith the
Palmer people wanted one more ballot. The Pal
mer people set up another demonstration. There
was movement on foot for recess until s clock
after the 35th ballot but the Palmer people want
ed one more ballot before that and the recess idea
was not pressed. While the Pennsy ylvanians were
chanting Palmer, Palmer, Pennsylvania" to the
tune of Glory Glory, Halleujah the Cox people
took hand at making parody and when the Nc
Adoo people set up counter demonstration the
Ohio and Pennsylvania crowd chanted out versa
which went:
"All the boys are on the payroll They
directed their megaphones toward the McAdoo
crowd
When the convention got back to order and
Alabama was called on the Both ballot Palmer
made another gain taking seven from Alabama.
He took them from McAdoo Davis and Cox. 1t
was the vote which the Palmer people had been
promised and was the reason they did not want to
recess.

You corn-pestered men and women need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinnati authority, because a few drops of freezone applied directly on a tender, aching corn stops soreness at once and soon the corn loosens so it can be lifted out, root and all, without pain.
 quarer of an ounce of freezone costs very little at any drug store, but iS sufficient to take off every hard or soft corn or callus. This should be tried as it is inexpensive and is said not to in1ame or even irritate the sur rounding tissue of skin.
