GOVERNOR COX ACCEPTS

Governor Cox the millionaire candidate of the
democratic party has formally accepted the nomna-
tion, and has laid down the issues which he ex-
poets to win in November.
AS was expected. especially since his interview
with President expects to make the league the
main issue. II he does have better success than
the President did two years ago his hopes victory
have already gone glimmering. IF you wish to
continue your unembarassed spokesman both at
home and abroad" the President said to the Ameri
can people years ago II hope you will return
democratic house and a democratic senate. The
entire country knows how the people answered the
President, and the reputation at that time is no
doubt the beginning of his illness There is nothing
to convince the humblest citizen that the people feel
any more kindly toward the Presidents league
than they did two years ago, and there is much to
convince child that there is n.uch stronger
sentiments against 1t than there two years
ago. In fact since that time there have been
twenty-one Democratic United States Senators that
have practically repudated the Presdest's League.
and right the League of Nations itself is look
ing upon the President repudiated leader and
Europe under the guidance of Hon. Elihu Root is
shaping herself to deal with the Republican party
Aside from the general repusion against the League
of Nations as manifested at the polls two years ago.
among the laborers there is a growing desire keep
away from European entanglements. There is good
deal of apprehension among laboring lest condl-
tions they observe in Europe may reach here.
scquontly Governor Cox enters the first heat
than handicapped.
The governors attack on the Lodge reservations
certainly will not be sweet morsel for Senator Reed
Senator Thomas senator King and some eighteen
other democratic Senators that voted for them and
do think Senator Lodge himself will lose much
sleep over the Senator's trade
There really for the governor to get
hot hnder the collar because the Senate had copy of
the treaty and the little league printed in the Senate
Journal before the President had submitted it to the
Senate If the governor will touch up a little on his
tory he will find that the President the first is
more his partner in the treaty making power and
SO far as to insult the senate by turning a
copy of the treaty Wall bankers before
he had submitted 1t the senate Really the COVER
ought to concede the entitled publish it
after it had been made public on Wall street,
The governor grows eloquent the profiteerng
plank, but If past performance is any criterion to the
governors acts should such accident happen tnat
he be elected there will be nothing It but empty
words usual The President has done the
thing but 1t has been just rhetoric that's all Attor
ney General Palmer has talked the same way just
more talk, William Jennings Bryan has denounced
the profiteers in most eloquent language and has
gone right lecturing three times day at $3.50
per lecture. Senator Funk right here at home has
aware of any great things performed except to
draw his reputed $4,000 per annum, So after all,
when the applause dies away and the words get cold
that is about the end OF It,
The governor scores the Republican platform be-
cause there is not cline that breathes emotion of
pride in the nation's war achievements. He should
thank the Republicans for being conslderatc of the
Democratic party Does he not know that the Demo
Gratis did win the war? Does ne not know that
Notwithstanding the fact that the Republicans were
the minority party that the Republican party was the
war party, and does he not know that the WAR WAS
WON IN SPITE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY?
His iawng about money for campaign purposes
does not enhuse Perhaps his party is short Of funds
and he therefore felt that should be hauled over the
Goals. II 1t is short he wen afford to drop mil
lion or Two without noticing IT, Don't It beat YOU
how these Democratic governors blossom out as null
ti-milonares And ~ the way the Democrats par
ty is reputed to be broe Since the campaign Of 1916
