COX'S MOTHER SAW
FUTURE FOR HIM
Told Cleveland in 1895 Her Son
Would Sit in the White
House.

Dayton O., July 10.-Governor Cox
pulled a pipe out of his pocket just as
dawn was breaking through the VIM
dows of his newspaper plant here, where
he had stayed all night waiting for the re-
suit of the convention, and said To the
faithful who surrounded him:
BOYS, before il goes any further. | d
like to tell you little story about my
mother.
The eager crowd around him put them
selves in q listening attitude, but before
the governor got the pipe going the tele-
graph began to click.
"Cox, 567,'' it said, giving the result
of the forty-third ballot
Looks as if we'd won, sid the gov
ernor laconically. but here goes for the
story anyhow II was way back in 1895
at Grover Cleveland's reception In the
White House when was twenty-five. My
mother and father had gone there, and when
mother was presented to the President she
said, as Cleveland shook hands with her,
Mr.. Cleveland, | have a boy ut home
who'll be here some day like you arc now.
Then Cox told about his mother and
all he owed to her. He hadn't finished
when word came of the forty-fourth
ballot and his triumph at San Francisco.
"Well, it looks as if mother was a
prophet" was all the governor could
say before those around him had seized
him and lifted him on their shoulders.
They bore him into the front Office,
where his wife, with several of her friends
had been waiting all night for the news.
Mrs. Cox ran forward and fairly caught
the husky candidate in her arms as his
friends released him.
Cox couldn't speak. His eyes were
filed with tears. His wife's eyes also told
her emotion as she Used him over and
over again. Then her friends also seized
him, and while the men about him cheerep
and cheered, the women shed tears of
Joy
While this little scene was going on
Cox's newspaper got out an extra, and
In minute the crowd that had waited
in the street all night knew the news.
Instantly cheering broke out and Cox
went to the window He spoke only few
words, and turned away to go among his
employees in the office He thanked every
one of them for what they had done for
him. Then he called for his automobile,
and, taking few friends with him, drove
to the house of his oldest friend and
counselor, John Mcmahon, lawyer,
who recently celebrated his eighty-sev-
enth birthday.
81 wanted to tell you first, John,
said the governor to the old man, whose
life wish was to see Jimmy" Cox lead
the Democratic party.
After few minutes with the aged lawyer
Cox went home for a rest, but his mothers
prophecy was on his mind He rested
only few hours and then went to the
grave in Woodlawn cemetery, where
she is buried. There he prayed half an
hour.
"All that I'll ever win will be due to
my mother" he said to those with him.

tion to the school,
The meeting is free, with cordial invi-
tation extended to all Interested. a Sun

joyable way to spend half day, and the

through beautiful country. The morning

shortly, "a number OF prominent women
of whom Mrs. Paul du Pont rs one, are
Interested.
Professor John Dewey Of Columbia
University has made visit of inyestiga-
tion to the school in Fairhope. Tho tollow-
ing statement and recommendations are
quoted from his report:
''ln my Judgment the school has demon
strated TINT IT is possible for children tn
lead the same nat raj lives in school
that they lead in homes of the right sort
outside of school, to progress b oily,
mentally and morally in school without
factitious pressure, rewards, examinations
grades or promotions, while they acquire
sufficient control of the conventional
tools of learning and Of tho study OF
books reading, writing and figuring to
be able to use them independently.
""The demonstration is all the more
striking ecause of the odds against
which Mrs Johnson has labored and be
cause Of the simplicity of the means by
which the results have been attained, Any
body who went 20 Fairhope expecting a
revelation of wonderful now methods and
devices would come away much dlsap-
pointed. There are no tricks of the trade,
no patent devices, no unique nor even
peculiar appliances, no mcthods IN one
sense of that term. IL the expression be
not misunderstood, ! would say that
what impressed me most on the side OF
educational procedure was negative, name
" the absence of all special devices cal
culated 10 make up for the lack of the
various forms OF pressure usually brought
to bear upon children"

lievod that he has been guilty of
acts disgraceful to him as a mem
Der of society, and that as mayor of
Gallup he is dishonest and I'M
worthy of office"
