 Will Be UnavaiIing
By Associated Press

Seattle. Wash, September 11.-Gov- ernor Cox tonight. made his first pub Tie declaration in regard to prohibi- ton.
 Tie governor. after an introduction in which his sponsor. George c. Cot terill. had denounced assertions that the candidate was wet" made the following declaration to large audi enee:
 As progressive in government l know when an event has passed by ana become part of yesterday. The ieactionary rarely does. Friends of world peace and the friends of progress Will win this election and attempts to divide them on any question not an issue will be upavailing."
 The brief statement in tonight's speech of the governor, who has been charged frequently with being wet" candidate. was determined upon during conferences with Mir. Cotterill and oth. CTS on his train today after day of bonn bardment upon him in newspape telegrams and letters demanding d statement from him on the subject.
 The way was paved for Governor Cox's declaration by MT Cotterill, who referred to an attack made on Gov ~thOl SOA lOudy py tAc Oedtlie IOSt Intelligencer, a republican newspaper, which branded Governor Cox as a wet and demanded that the govern or declare himself and not dodge" the question. The paper printed an alleged letter of George +. Carroll, president of the New Jersey Liquor Dealers As sociation, dated July 22, stating that Governor Cox was pronounced wet" and his nomination ''big victory for nt i,ta ctu Car lat al. called for aid and funds from the liquor dealers in behalf of Governor Cox.

Cottrill said the republican candi- date had voted thirty times on the wet side, on matters pertaining to prohibi- tion, as against only two dry votes. and these after Ohio had adopted pro- hibition and reelected Governor Cox to enforce it.
 MT. Cotterill said that the Seattle news paper had in the past thrown it's infiu- ence in behalf of the liquor interests, and now made it's attack upon the gover- nor to further partisan ends.
 He added that, in view of Cox's record. he would support him with assurance that he would ,''enforce the law in the United States as he enforced it in Ohio"
 Besides the Seattle newspapers attack, the Herald of Bellingham, where the governor made his first speech today, sent telegram asking statement from the candidate on prohibition, and whether he favored Article 10 of the League of Nations covenant as presented by Prest dent Wilson, whether he approved the blanket indorsement of President Wr- sons administration in the San Francisco platform and other questions. No reply was made by MT. Cox.
