PROCRESSIVES UNITED FOR RE.
PUBLICAN CHIEF
Leaders of Movement Strongly En-
dorse Harding and Coolidge
and Resent Cox Over
lures

Washington, Sept. 8.-While Gov.
Cox and Franklin D. Roosevelt are
making a studious effort to gather
into the Democratic fold the remnant
of the old progressive wing of the Re-
publican party on the specious state
ment that they are more progressive
than Harding, the great progressive
figures of the last ten years are lin
ing up solidly with the Republican
ticket.
First to give unqualified support
and to declare that the issue of the
present campaign is Americanism
against a Wilson league which would
nullify Americanism was Senator
Hiram johnson, of California. He
has announced that he will make
speaking tour of the East for Hard
ing and Coolidge. Senator William
E. Borah, of Idaho, one Of the leading
progressives Of the West made SINH
lar announcement. Senator Kenyon,
of Iowa, is another who is assisting
the party every day. Raymond Rob-
ms, of Chicago, who was chairman of
the last national progressive conven-
ton and a personal friend of Theo-
dore Roosevelt, is a member of the
Republican Executive Committee.
Clifford Pinchot, forester under T. R.,
has been making speeches.
And now comes Charles Evans
Hughes, hailed as the ablest of the
progressive Republican governors of
New York, who deposes and says:
cit is hardly necessary for me to
say that shall earnestly support
Senator Harding. He is man of rare
noiso, high-minded, and sincere. No

The Cox press and the Cox spell
binders urge their candidate solely on
his promises. They don't offer his
party's record during the past eight
years as a pledge that he will deliver
the goods. And promises are mighty
poor fodder for the voters this year.
The promises of 1921 and the prom
Uses of 1916 are as empty today as
when they were made.-Ft. Wayne
(Ind.) Sentinel.
Jimmie Cox had better go easy.
Somebody may ask the Democratic
national committee where they got it
and then the committee would have
to summon all the distillers, owners
and former saloon keepers in the
country to testify.-Missoula (Mont.)
Muscular.
Just before the balloting began in
the San Francisco Convention Bryan
speaking of Cox said:
Ellis (Cox's) nomination would
make the Democratic party the lead
er of the lawless element of the coun-
try and his election, if such thing
were possible, would turn the White
House over to those who defy the gov
eminent and hold law in contempt.
'There is no chance of his election
if nominated, but why should any
Democrat be willing to support man
whose nomination would insult the
conscience of the nation? "-Winston-
Salem IN. c. Union.
A campaign of loose talk, based on
insincerity and eliminating in un-
proved charges, is not a campaign
that commends itself to American
voters. 1t is, however, the sort of
campaign which Gov. Cox is waging.
IN. H. Daily Eagle.
James M. Cox has spoken.
In his expose of the existence of
"slush fund of no less than $15,000,-
900 to buy the presidency" the
Democratic presidential candidate has
proven one thing above all others, and
that is that he has no regard for
the truth. Furthermore he has
demonstrated again, and more for
chilly than ever, what has already
been apparent to thinking people,
that he is attempting to make cam
paign material out of mere buncombe.

one can meet him without being i'm
pressed by his exceptional capacity
and his integrity of purpose. He has
complete familiarity with the prob
lens of federal administration and
we can feel assured that he will
maintain the highest standards in
Government. He knows how to Sc
cure economy, to put an end to ex-
travagance which has marked the
present administration.
"We cannot afford to have a Tam
manyized Federal Government. The
nomination of Governor Cox was
brought about by the skilful and de-
termined effort of local Democratic
bosses who represent the most bane-
full influences in our political life.
There is one sure way to defeat their
effort to capture the Government at
Washington and that is to beat their
candidate.
Senator Harding has genius for
cooperation. We want executive
leadership, but we want to put an end
to the attempts, sometimes obvious,
sometimes subtle, to create an auto
cracy Of the executive. Senator
Harding will be his own master, but
he will really seek counsel and not
simply talk about it.
81 believe also that Senator Hard
ing's election will afford the surest
way of securing our proper relation
to international cooperation. This
country must do its part, but it must
reserve the right to act in any future
contingency according to it's duty
as that contingency reveals it.
"Of course, that is what will actu
ally occur. We shall act in any flu
ture emergency as, in the light of all
the facts, we are then convinced that
we should act. 1t is to preserve that
essential freedom as nation which
makes it necessary to object to am
biguous commitments in advance.
"The essentials in any really effec-
tive plan for international coopera-
ton are to establish a tribunal of in
ternational justice where justiciable
questions are concerned, to provide
the machinery of Cancellation, and to
secure the advantages of interna-
tional conference. All this can be
secured, and believe will be secured,
under the Presidency of Mr.. Hard
ing, without guarantees which at
tempt to commit us in unknown con-
and which will serve as
trouble-breeders and not as peace
81 am fully convinced, as a result
of my conversation with Senator
Harding, that under his leadership we
shall have our foreign relations con-
Quoted in accordance with our best
and Americas duty to the
world will be discharged"
