THE NEW YORK WORLD tDemo
BY the nomination OF James N.
Cox the San Francisco convention
has given its party a leader well
versed In the principles OF Democ-
raey. a candidate who has the pleas
ing habit Of carrying his own state
and a man who In high onice has
demonstrated his capacity TO iegis-
late and to govern.
As governor OF Ohio, Mr.. Cox has
20 his credit public service of the
highest order. 1t was largely due
to his influence that the archaic
State constitution WAS reformed
and nifty or sixty statutes needed 10
moderniEe the laws OF practice OF
the Commonwealth were enacted.
From what we know OF him we
should say that Governor Cox. if
elected, would enforce the prohibi- =
ton amendment to the letter ana
all laws made In harmony there
with. As to the league OF nations
he has not, yet spoken. That ne
favors IL and would ratify the
treaty without impairing Its integ-
rity, as Is SO eloQuently promised by
the platform upon which he Is 10
stand, is to be assumed as matter
OF course. BY reason OF his COM
plete detachment from the admin
istration he will escape responSi-
bility for it's errors and Is under
no obligation to defend them. This,
however, will not excuse lukewarm-
ness on his part toward the splendid
achievements OF that administration
and the high aims that 1t has Kept
ever in view.

n. Y. TRIBUNE (Rep.)

The nomination OF James Middle
ton Cox is due to the circumstances
that he was the "wettest" candidate
in sight; TO the desire to get as far
away from Wilson as possible. and
to the fact that the nominee is from
Ohio. The representatives of the
President were dutifully allowed to
write, in the main. a White House
platform. The delegates politely
cheered the name Of Wilson, but
the great majority Of them then
tried to forget the horrors OF the
last four years.

neither seems ready to follow Presi-
dent Wilson's lead in European af-
fairs"
The Washington correspondent OF
the Times calls the selection OF Gov
ernor Cox "a blow to the White

Governor Cox is regarded by some

handicap. These papers express the
opinion, however, that this handicap
can be overcome by whirlwind cam

There was no expressed hostility.

turned down a cabinet officer and
an Cabinet officer and son-in-law
OF the President to take a man not
