confined himself very closely to his
business and needs the rest.

UNFAIR PUBLICITY.

Gov. Cox while in California entered
protest against the lack of,fairness
OF the western metropolitan press. The
protest Is timely The latteh ton of the
country should be directed to many
newspapers which II not subsidized
could not be more slavish in their sub
lection to the republican party II they
were receiving part of these millions
allotted In tho south nearly all the
newspapers are democratic. but this
does not keep them from pub
fishing all the routine news fur
nisned by the Associated Press, the
International News Service and the
United Press. There isn't southern
newspaper of first class which did not
print Senator Harding's speech of ac-
certance. but Gov. Cox cites several Of
the Pacific coast papers which refused
to publish his speech OF acceptance. At
tho San Francisco convention the only
fly In the ointment OF hospitality ex-
tended the delegates was the wretched
publicity given the convention. Both of
the San Francisco morning papers were
notorious In their insldious and open
propaganda against the convention. The
Chronicle Is a republican organ owned
by M. II. De Young. The Examiner is
ono Of w. r. Hearsts publications.
They habitunlly referred to the demo-
Gratis as 'bourbons" and Earbled their
news reports. The afternoon news
papers were much fairer. The Bulletin
ia really great newspaper. and printed
fair accounts of the sessions. and little
exception could he taken TO tho Cali.
which Ia now edited by Fremont Older,
who won fame for the expose Of Abe
Ruef,
The democratic party Is under great
handicap in many sections of the coun-
try by reason OF being unable to pre-
sen' Its case TO che people II was for
this reason that Gov. Cox determined to
make his speaking tour But he can
roach only n small proportion OF the
people The bias OF the press for the
party OF big business is going to result
some day In the national publication OF
political bulletin in which Is fairly
presented the arguments made by all

COX WILLING no TRY,

Gov. Cox has agreed in case OF his
election, to present the cause Of Ireland
70 the league OF nations for considera-
tioI. He thinks this might be done
un,!er the provision which authorizes
reference to the league OF matters which
are likely TO endanger the peaceful re-
lations between nations. Others, OPP
posing this promise. contend that the
Irish problem is simply a domestic
question in the British empire with
which the league Of nations can have
nothing to do. This latter plea is made
for the very evident purpose OF in
(, fluencing Irish votes in this country
against Cox.
Intelligent Irishmen are not likely.

Maybe the league can't do anything for

Those who believe in freedom and
self-determination can nearly always
find occasion TO speak a heartening
word TO or for those who are struggling
to attain these blessings. Those who
do not sympathize with such aspira-
tons are most always first to discover
obstacles in the way. The republican
leaders are very anxious to develop
rapport among the Irish. But they are
leery. when II comes TO pledging any
efforts In behalf OF Ireland. Democrats,
however. have a good reason for SYM
pathizing With the desire Of the Irish TO
he free. They believe in freedom as
an abstract principle.
