A throng, largely made up of
townspeople, who hailed the senator
as friend, filled the approaches to the
residence and invaded the lawns. As
many as could find room were ad-
mitted to the house for the funeral.

Harding Talks
At Dedication
- OF War Tablet
Republican Presidential Nom-
inee Speaks at Birthday An.
niversary of Rutherford
B. Hayes.

Fremont, O., Oct. 4.-Taking a
respite from the cares of his CAM
paign, Senator Harding motorcd to
Fremont and delivered a nonpoliti-
cal address at the dedication of a
soldier memorial at Hayes Memorial
Library, situated in a public park
which is part of the old estate Of
Rutherford 3. Hayes.
Before the exercises the nominee
and his wife were luncheon guests of
Webb c. Hayes, a son of the farmer
president, and later they visited the
latter's grave near by.
A parade OF Sandusky county war
veterans also was reviewed by the
senator as part of the days pro-
gram which Commemorated the an
niversary of President Hayes birth.
In his speech Senator Harding re-
viewed the historical associations of
Sandusky county and praised Presi-
dent Hayes as one whose official
service to America was more healing
than heroic, and left a sense of sat
iStying security as a heritage to
America" Paying tribute to the
soldiers OF the great war, he said
that they, too, had wrought less
in brilliancy but more in glory" and
called upon American citizens to
demonstrate by peace-time patri-
otism the same measure of devotion
to duty.
Voice today" he said, "a tribute
to the steadfastness, the resolution,
the undaunted courage, the irresist-
ible determination of the American
expeditionary force. You world war
veterans are the new leaven in the
patriotic citizenship of the republic,
the mightiest influence in American
life for a half century to come.
Let us do more even than is
symbolized in memorial tablets and
monuments. Let US pay our sor-
rowing tribute to the dead, our
grateful tribute to the living and be
resolved, all OF us, to meet our duties
as they meet theirs, undeterred and
unafrai1, and hand on to our sons
and daughters the legacy of liberty
and temple of security, our own u.
S. A."
The name of Governor Cox ap-
peared beside that of Senator Hard
ing on the program, but officials said
he had cancelled recently an en-
gagement to be present. Referring
to the fact that arrangements for the
ceremonies had been made before the
national conventions, Senator Hard
ing said that he had come because
Il believe in keeping contracts"
Tonight the senator and Mrs.
Harding returned to Marion by
motor.

with the first of a series OF pubic
statements in defense of the league
Of nations sign2lizes the beginning
Of desperate effort to save Cox

This move on the part Of the

discussed with those advisers of The

Washington explaining that Mr..
Wilson was too i'll to receive him.
II Cox should be elected, now that

that he experienced on the election

The presidents assertion that
there is nothing in the covenant
which in the least interferes with
or impairs the right of congress to
declare war or not TO declare war,
according to its own independent
Judgment again raises the Ques-
ton Of why he refused to accept the
lodge reservation making this ex-
