seems to be = specially with the
democratic party to forsee war and
then keep us out of it, during the
campaign The republican party is
not war party. though we did in
sist in fighting vigorously and with
all our resources after we were in
yolved in the great world conflict.
But this campaign scare will not
deceive America the second time. The
policy of tho present administration
which distrust In Mexico and humiii-
alton at home, VIII be quickly revers.
ed, when we come into power. but
instead OF war, It will bring conf
,dence, respect and tranquility.
Mexico understands the republican
policy as to Americans who are more
intimately concerned With our rela-
tionship with the sister republic We
never intended TO tell them who shall
govern there-thst Is Mezfco's own
affair"

has behind him the most motley array
of questionable groups and influences
that were behind a candidate-an ar
ray that to survey brings the crimson
blush TO an American Cox said. IT
is an assortment of influences that he
must Immediately begin to repudiate
after the election should the unthink-
able thing of a reactionary victory
darken the happy prospects of a vic
torious and proud America.
The governor claimed that these
strangely Heterogeneous parties are
arrayed behind Harding:
The reactionaries, the pro-Germans.
the pro-Italians. the low wage party.
the Liberty bond spectators, the anti
federal reserve act party, the profl-
teers, the munitions makers, the op-
