1, -conspirators in matching plot to ie- feat the league.
 After tomorrow continued the gov-
 ernor lone of the conspirators will be a
 private citizen. residing a Marion. Ohio.
 Many in the crowd arose to their feet,
 cheering the governors prediction. | Governor Cox said that the covenant
 of~the league aimed to remove the causes 1 of war Objections to the league were considered by the governor who denied | that England would have six votes to
 one for the United States in the organi-
 zation. Further, he asserted that the l league would not interfere with Ireland becoming a separate nation, but he con- tended that Irelands best chance for freedom was through the league. Denial also was made by the Governor that
 America's entrance into the league would permit American soldiers being sent abroad without a declaration of war by | Congress
 NO ONE KNOWS l q cannot tell where Senator Harding stands on the league question, for have not read today's newspapeE' said Gov ernor Cox.
 Can anyone tell where he stands?" | After a brief pause Q voice in the crowd answered "Guess not" The governor then recounted what he 1 said were several of the many posi- tions on the league" taken by the re- l publican candidate, asserting that Sena- l tor Harding was trying to 'wiggle and lwobble' into the presidency. I The election of Senator Harding, Governor Cox continued, would be mixed mandate on the league" Every group of voters opposing the league. the governor added, favors the senator S election.
 Every traitor in America will vote TO- morrow for Warren c. Harding" de- clared Governor Cox.
 A man in the crowd sitting near the stage arose and moved toward the rear doors. The crowd laughed at him and the governor remained silent during the uproar.
 Its getting too hot for him, shouted l a voice in the crowd. Then. as the noise subsided, the sov- ernor remarked: There's voter Tor
 Harding whose going to the polls early, | for he wants to be sure to cast vote | for the loser.'
 | Urging the leagues adoption, Governor | Cox said that worldwide prosperity would follow.
 l 'If we don't go into the League of Ma tions,' said the governor. you will have ismokeless chimneys in Toledo for long 1 time to come In six months bankers will be calling in their loans, if we are not in the league.'
 1 The governor brought his campaign to ! a close just an hour and half before the | beginning of election day The song ot 1 the angels at Bethlehem that he used as the closing words of his campaign, he said would be sung again by the angels when this country entered the League ot Nations.
 | In summarizing his arguments for the league, the governor joined with them an attack on Senator Harding, declaring mo one knows where Harding stands on the league issue. Governor Cox also declared that the republican campaign leaders had sought to win votes "py levery means" Senator Hardings cleo tion, the governor added, would be a mixed mandate regarding whether this l, country should join.
 l Every traitor in America, the gov ernor asserted in this connection, twill vote tomorrow for Warren G. Harding. I This remark caused few hearers to leave the hall, with whom the crowd made merry as the departing voters moved toward the exit. The governor also declared that when he started the campaign he promised to "step a fast | pace" and he had finished with greater speed than ever.
