Governor Cox Urges Legisla- ture of the Southern State to Make Universal Suffrage a Fact.

Dayton, O., July 7.-If the legislature Sf Louisiana acts in accord with the opin- ion of Governor Cox, women will be en- franchised to vote at the November cleo tion and the democratic party may get the credit for making universal suffrage fact.
 In a telegram to Frank J. Looney, chairman of the Louisiana state central committee. Governor Cox expressed it as his opinion that the Louisiana legislature owes it as duty to the democratic party to ratify at once. MT. Looney had wired the governor asking him to express his views to the legislature on ratification of the amendment.
 In his official capacity as governor of Ohio, the democratic candidate has re- peatedly placed himself on record as being in favor of giving the vote to women. He has signed a number of bills intended to enfranchise women in this state and in a special message to the legislature trans hitting the federal amendment for rati- fication he urged favorable action.
