ALREADY BOOM COX FOR THE
 RACEN 1924

Dayton, Ohio, Nov. 3.-Taking his defeat with philosophical indifference, Governor James M. Cox early today Set about "analyzing the sum- prepar- atory to issuing a formal statement on the result of the election and sending a message of congratulation to his successful opponent. He expected to issue the statement some time during the day.
 There was nothing in the Gov ernor's manner today to indiate that he had just lSst the presidency of the United States by perhaps the greatest plurality in the history of American politics Friends who offered their condolences in dismal tones were met with cheerful, Well, what must be, will be-" Or "It would seem as if the people don't want ne, wouldn't it, boys?" And they went away looking as if it were they who had been de- feated instead of Jimmy Cox
 Early today telegramS began arriv- ing in which predominated such phrases as Game fight Republican year." Overwhelming odds" and tIt would have been worse with anybody else" Another frequently expressed sentiment was that this was only the beginning and that Governor Cox's real opportunity would come in 1924 A few messages received the nigh before election suggested this idea: "This may be only the battle of the Marne,' by . prominent California attorney.

AN IMPETUS FOR LYNCHING.

In our opinion Judge Sease set
bad precedent at the trial of the Cos
setts in Abbeville in allowing the
court room to be packed to over
flowing" as the press dispatches IN
dicate, with crowds of curious specta-
tors who came for no other reason
than to- see and hear. Judge Sease
would have been within his rights TO
have excluded the crowd during the
trial, or at least while the young Wo-
men were testifying. Such things as
this is what causes lynchings. we
suspect that the next time something
of the kind occurs, relatives and
friends of the victims will remember
the ordeal their women will have to
undergo in order that law and order
may triumph.
We think the people acted admira-
bly, in this matter, and with the very
prompt action of the officers IN get
ting the young men to place OF
safety while passion was taking the
place of wisdom, saved the commun-
ity of another crime, for there was
no indication of disorder during the
trial. 1t appears to us that the court
should have respected this admirable
conduct on the part of the commun-
ity to the extent of refusing to make
a public exhibition Of the trial, which
is in no sense necessary to securing
justice.
In similar instances, where the
crime is committed by negroes, great
care has been taken to protect the
feelings and pride of the victims.
Why should any exception be made
because all parties are white?
As to this particular case we know
nothing but what the papers have
published, and it makes no difference
what the' facts are, but it appears to
us as a general rule that change of
venue should be granted for such
trials.
By far the greatest number of peo-
pie in South Carolina are opposed to
lynching, and any steps that can be
taken to prevent lynchings should be
taken. Only the judge, the jury, the
lawyers, court officials and witnesses
are necessary for trial. The pres
ence of a morbid crowd cannot add
to the solemnity OF the court; and if
it is necessary in other cases, there
is no excuse for it in cases of this
character.

AN EXCESS OF FREEDOM.

It ia a reflection on the freedom OF
America that de Valera, the so-called
president of Ireland, should be per-
mitted to make public speeches in
this country. De Valera does not
dare to put his foot on his native
soil because he is fugitive. Yet
he is permitted the freedom Of the
United States, which he is using for
his own purposes.
Because Great Britain sympathlz-
ed with and gave aid to the Confed-
crate States she was required to pay
big indemnity; yet de Valera is
here in the United States asking this
country to interfere with the internal
affairs of Great Britain.
Some OF the Irish sympathizers
have even gone so far as to disgrace
the congress of the United States by
officially discussing the so-called
question in the senate and house.
Since when has the United States con-
gress assumed the authority of run
ming the British empire? Suppose
the British parliament should un-
dertake to settle the question of the
independence of the PHILIPPINE Is
lands. How would that set With the
American people?
The United States has nothing
whatsoever to do with the internal
affairs of Great Britain. 1t is in
bad taste, if not an affront, to even
allow the question to be publicly dis
cqssed here by emissaries Of Ireland.
The people are at liberty to entertain
whatever sympathies they wish; but
there their good Offices should cease.
If the Irish in America (than whom
there are no better citizens) insist
On carrying on their propaganda for
the formation of the Republic of Ire
land they should go to Ireland or
England to do it.
Unless we are very seriously HIS
taken in the American people, the
Republic of Ireland need ever hope
for recognition by the United States
government until Ireland is given her
freedom by the government of Great
Britain. With all the lleretical opin-
ions broadcast throughout the land,
we are still of the belief that common
sense and fairplay will continue to
govern in questions of this kind.
Any persons purporting to repre-
sent the people are assuming consid-
erble authority in inviting foreign
propagandists to carry on their pro-
paganda among Americans.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-06-24

The civil warfare between factions
in Londonderry, Ireland, has gone to
such stage that it would seem ad-
visable on the part of the British gov
eminent to take steps to end the blood
shed. Admittedly, it is delicate stu
alton with the nationalist on the one
side and the unionists on the other;
and intervention might result in the
extension of the warfare TO many other
places to the southwark of London
derry until, eventually, the whole OF
Ireland might become involved. In
Prevention without tact might prove
very disastrous, not, perhaps, to the
British government, but to the people
of Ireland, who are becoming infamed
over the issue between the nationalists
and unionists. No government envies
the British government its task; yet
all the governments recognize the need
of strong hand in terminating the
bJoodshed. Great Britain's problem Is
such as to challenge the greatest mind.

To Use Barre Granite in Memorial.

Editor, Barre Times: Toward the
close of the World war, the national
body of the Ladies Of the Grand Army

Bugle Call a paper devoted exclusively

of husbands, fathers, sons, grandsons
and nephews of their members who
were called to the colors in the great
World war.
Not all circles reported, but the
names poured in until there were 3,l75
reported. Section circle of Chicago sent
the largest number Of any circle, l03
stars on their service flag. 1t was very
| interesting to read the names and see
| the different branches of service in
which our boys were engaged. There
were majors, several captains and a
! number of lieutenants in the service.
Captain John w. Kitchell circle,
Pana, ILL.,, have awarded the contract
| for the erection of memorial to the
men of Pana township who enlisted in
| the recent World war and have sue
ceeded in collecting the necessary funds,
| 5000, for same. The design of the
proposed memorial, which is to be con-
strueted wholly of white Barre gran
, lite, is group of three figures upon a
base five feet high, l0x7h feet broad.
The group is goddess Of liberty eight
| and one half feet high. standing be-
tween soldier and Sailor, each of
these to measure seven feet in height.
This handsome eenotaph is to be erect
ed in kitchell park.
Capt Kitchell, for whom the circle
| was named, was a worthy soldier and
| for many years a resident of Pana.
His widow is member of the circle
