It believes America can and must bear it's full part in the re. responsibilities of the world but it all ways believes that America alone must decide what that part shall be-

PHOENIX, Oct. 25.-The A oaa corporation commission today ed an order denying the applica i,n re- gently made by the railroads operat- ing in Arizona for an increase in in- trastate freight rates. passenger and rates. The railroads sought to Ob- tain increases in rates within the state corresponding to the increased rates on interstate shipments grant ed by the interstate commerce com mission.

 In only six states. it was said, have the railroads been denied such intra- state rate increases on application. In these cases the practice has been to appeal to the interstate commerce commission to order the higher in- trastate rates in effect over the or der of state commissions. officials said, adding that one such case was being threshed out in federal court

 Appeals for Suffrage
 "In asking the suffrage of the American electorate this year, the Re- publican party has in mind both the record of service from it's beginning, whereof it is very proud, and the vis- ion of opportunity for service in the future, which it's spokesmen have pre- sented during this campaign. We are asking that great responsibility be imposed upon us. It is responsibil- ity that must be measured by both the gravity of the crisis that confronts the world and the incapacity with which the present administration has met the problems of the last few years Onerous as is the respons:Diii- ty we seek. our party has not thought of evading, for it never has been guilty of that.
 Danger of Oisaster
 Democratic economy and admins trative policies had brought this coun- try to the danger of disaster before the outbreak of the war in Europe. The vast expansion of our export trade and domains upon our producing fa- cilities, which came with the war, say ed us from immediate precipitation of that disaster. But that phase has now passed and nothing but a return to those constructive and progressive pol icies which have always characterized the Republican administration can save us from early realization of the

LORD MAYOR 0F
 CORK EXPIRES AFTER "A DAYS
 HUNGER STRIKE

LONDON. Oct. 25.-Terenee Mac Swiney, lord mayor of Cork, the most prominent of the Irish hunger strik- CTS, and said to have been the brains of the republican army in Ireland. died earyl today in Brixton prison.
 The end was not unexpected. for the lord mayor had been unconscious for several days. He was entering upon the seventy-fourth day of his hunger strike as a protest against a sentence of two years imprisonment on several charges, including one of having seditious documents in his possession.
 At Victims Bedside
 Only his brother. John MacSwiney. and his private chaplain. Father Dom- inic, were with him when he died. Mrs. MacSwiney and the prisoners two sisters. Annie and Mary, were at nearby hotel.
 The lord mayor, who was terribly emaciated as a result of his long ab- stinence from food, had been delirious for many hours and was unconscious when death came.
 It was several hours after the lord mayor died before his brother was permitted to tell Mrs. MacSwiney the sad news. She immediately went to the prison, accompanid by her par ents and the Misses MacSwiney and the family group, dry-eyed prayed over the body as it lay on the cot. Police Take Precautions
 There were no untoward demon strations outside the prison after the news of MacSwineys' death became generally known. A large force of police had been concentrated to put

Harding's Position Very Much Like
 Shell Game

Harding has said that he was not interested in clarification, but ;n re- iection. I have every expectation that after November 2, much of the partisanship spirit that has been wis ited upon discussion of the league will have subsided. One-third of the seats of the senate are to be filled this year. The people understand the issue and we will accept their expression at face value. l will, therefore, sit down with the senate and reach an agreement about our going into this league. There is no other. and any talk of new asso- ciation is phrase,
 Help Stabilize World
 "The important thing is to get a start and help to stabilize world con ditions which vitally affect the in terest and welfare of America. For us to remain out of the league for two years or until another election could be held would be uDthinkable. If tCo much has to be given in com promise now, hl order to insure our entrance into the league, the people themselves will have an opportunity to modify and correct later. It can not be a matter of the exercise Of merely the executive will. The pop ular will, as voiced at the polls, must control.

Palmer's Letter Spurs Action In
 Coal Situation

CLEVELAND, Oct. 25.--- Hundreds of bituminous coal operators from va. rious producing fields throughout the country reached Cleveland tonight for a general meeting here tomor- TOW, at which communication from Attorney General Palmer urging ac- tion toward a lowering of prices for soft coal will be taken up.
 The meeting which has been call ed by Colonel D. B. Wentz of Phila- delphia, president of the National Coal association, is expected to be one of the most important in the his tory of the country.
 Free and Open Discussion
 It is anticipated that upwards of thousand of the seven thousand soft coal producers of the country who have been invited to attend. will participate in tomorrow's meet ing, and it is assured that the attor- ney generals communication will be the basis for a free and open dis cussion of the whole soft coal situa- tion at the request of Attorney Gen. eral Palmer sc that the attorney gen. erals proposal might be put before all the representative coal operators.
 Favor Reasonable Price
 It was explained today that the National Coal association. whose membership embraces 25O0 operators with more than three-fourths of the aggregate soft coal output. which will this year reach nearly 55OOOO- 900 tons, cannot, because of the nat ure of it's charter, take any action relating to price fixing. Because oi this, Colcnel Wentz decided to put the matter before the general body of coal operators. but as individual representatives of the various fields.
 While it is not thought that an at tempt will be made to fix any max imum price for soft coal. it is under stood that the majority of those op- orators in the city tonight might support resolution favoring "fair

danger that confronted us at the mid dle of 1914.
 Refused to Prepare
 From the beginning of the war in Europe the Democratic administration steadfastly refused to prepare for the national defense in case we should be involved. Tn 1916, when it was appa- rent to most people that our country was in imminent danger of being drawn into the struggle, the Demo- cratic party made it's campaign on the boast that it had kept us out of the war, and the promise to continue to keep us out. Thus when we found ourselves at last in the struggle, we were utterly unready for it, and our participation cost immeasureably more than it should have cost
 Economies Disorganized
 "An administration, that when all the world was in conflagration refus- ed to realize the importance of pre- paredness, of course could not be eX- pected to realize while we were at war the necessity of preparing for peace. So we entered into peace quite as unready for it as we had been for war. Our economies were disorganiz- ed. our debt enormous, our foreign commerce devoted largely to supply ing the necessities of war.
 Instead of settling itself to rem edying these conditions, the admins tration has devoted itself from the day
