States Senate. will find himself in an
awkward position as a running mate
Of Cox in Maryland. since the Mary

record. A somewhat similar situation
Is presented on the republican side,

chieftain and Candidate for the United

With both conventions now out of

get underway in Maryland without

true of the senatorial race, since Sem

fight Of his life on his hands. Both
candidates declared recently that they
were awaiting only the ending Of the
conventions to launch their cam

make the hardest fight Of his career

Senator Smith came out the other

Years Ago,

NASHVILLE. Tenn. July 10.-The
nomination of Gov. Cox of Ohio by
the San Francisco convention bears
out a prophecy made nearly two
years ago at a White House confer
ence. according to story related by
Gov. A H. Roberts of Tennessee A
conference called by President Wilson
shortly before he sailed for France
was attended by all the governors
and some three hundred mayors.
THE conference had got down to
business" says Gov. Roberts. "and re-
ports were being made by the various
governors. Gov. Edge Of New Jersey,
afterward senator. made very bit
ter political attack upon the admins
tratfon. The attack came like a clap
of thunder upon the assemblage. We
were there to solve questions and to
republicans. but as citizens of the
United States.
"When Edge had finished his til
rade," the governors story continues,
"Ohio was called.

on Gov Cox's face. He was SO made his

table. He erked out a few sentences
before he got himself under full con-

most thrilling speeches I ever heard.
His defense of Wilson and the demo-

SACRAMENTO, July 10.-California

column by both the democrats and re-
publican parties in the forthcoming
campaign. Apparent at the present
time among the large section Of
voters who will make the state either
safe for Harding or for Cox Is dis
gruntled feeling over the results OF
both nominating conventions. The
progressive republicans are still sore
over the treatment Senator Hiram w.
Johnson received at Chicago. The
progressive democrats are sore over
the manner in which Tammany, Tag
CART and Brennan compelled the
nomination of Gov. James M. Cox at
San Francisco. If a strong man were
nominated on a third party ticket in
the present mood of California, he
would receive a very large vote. AS
the Fresno Republican, the leading
progressive republican paper of the
state, declares. "the people have been
given stuffed figures when they were
demanding visible leadership" The
Republican bolted the republican tick

The Miami Herald says: James NJ.

The Gainesville Sun remarks: "It

manner in which Mr.. Taggart and the .
Indiana delegation conducted thS2n=
selves at San Francisco was matter
of qualification for the party leaders
The Indiana delegation at diferent
times threw its strength almost COM
pletely to Mr.. McAdoo. The dele
cation was strongly pro-CoX, but at
times when it seemed 1t was wise to
go to Mr. McAdoo the Cox dele
gates listened to the counsel Of Mr..
Taggart. According to the word that
came back home, at one time when
1t seemed advisableto throw support
to McAdoo Mr.. Taggart frankly told
the delegates that he believed Nc
Adoo would be the strongest candi-
date This took place about midway
of the balloting. but later Mr.. Taggartr
just as willingly led the delegates
to the Cox standard.
Taggart Secured Harmony.
The general understanding was that
Taggart had been favorable to the
Cox candidacy for a long time. Gov.
Cox several months ago addressed a
meeting of the democratic editors of
Indiana, and at that time the word
went out that Mr.. Taggart was for
Cox for President and that the In
diana delegation would be for Cox.
But Mr.. Taggart also realized that
there was a strong Wilson sentiment
in Indiana and that this sentiment
lined up with the McAdoo candidacy.
The certain knowledge that this Will
son sentiment existed no doubt had
something to do with the way Mr.
Taggart handled matters at San Fran
cisco. Anyhow-and what is most i'm
portant to the party-Mr. Taggarts
conduct at the national convention
was such as to promote harmony in
the party and was very useful In
finally doing away with difficulties that
had existed as a result of the feeling
arising between what have been
known as the Taggart and anti-Tag-
CART factions.
Republicans of Indiana find them
selves in a bad tangle on the eve
of the special session of the legis-
