split came in 1908, 1t was Hanley whose
influence got his nomination.
Even before his nomination in 1912
for governor he was on the stump ad-
vocating the initiative and referendum,
workman's compensation law and many
other progressive reforms.
He astounded the conservatives Of
Ohio by the length Of the progressive
program that he submitted to the Ohio
legislature during his first term. He de-
manded the passage of fifty-six progress
sive measures, covering every field of ac-
tivity, and he made the Legislature stay
on the Job until they had passed every
one of the dfty- six.
DEFEAT TRACED TO
TOO MUCH PROGRESS.
Cox had gone So far with progressive
legislation, In fact, that his defeat. in
1914, can be directly attributed to "too
much progress" He had tramped on
the corns Of many different interests and
they combined against him. The repuh-
Leans, however didn't dare repeal any
of his reforms after the public had d.
gested them.
Cox is always doing things.
He instigated the first state meeting
of prosecuting attorneys to fight the high
cost sof living, and go after food hoard
ers and prohteers.
He tackled the coal strike proposition
and was on the verge of making peace
between Ohio operators and miners when
the federal government announced It's ma
ton wide settlement.
Cox is in his fftieth year, but looks
to be about 40. He enjoys wonderful
physical vitality and health.

Goodrich in MANLY
Role Hiding Behind
Skirts of Women

The proposition submitted by Gov.
Goodrich that he win call an extra ses-
sion to pass upon the suffrage amend
ment II all the members Of the legisla-
ture will pledge themselves to make no
effort to rectify any of the acknowledged
mistakes of legislation, particularly on
the tax law, Is the most amazing, ana
indicates a cowardice that IS repugpant.
With the admission that the finances Of
the state are in bad condition because
Of the hs1f-baked legislation OF the late
ever-to- be-lamented session, It would
seem to be the part OF craftsmanship to
want TO take advantage of the first op
portunity to change the law. The very
fact that there Is popular clamor for
an extra session for that very purpose is
proof positive that the position of the
governor is opposed to the win Of the
people Of whom he Is q servant.
And Il was especially cowardly for the
governor to thus attempt to hide behind
the womens skirts. Posing as he. hes
OF late as q friend OF woman's Suffrage
he has been excoriated numerically for
his failure to call an extra session to
ratify the amendment. Fearing the eff
feet, and taking council no doubt Of tho
sweet singer OF the reactionaries, Mt
HAYS, he has Mt length conceived the
notion Of marching the women at the
head of the procession, as tho Germans
did In Belgium, on the theory that men
will not Are upon the women. In other
words he now attempts to .blacktnail the
enemies of his discredited and vicious
policies into a pledge to take no step to
alter them. IF they should decline to be
blackmailcd he will then assure the wom-
en- that the democrats have prevented
him from the calling Of the extra SEES
sion.

Special Correspondent of The Times.
COLUMBUS, O.. Dec. There's one
thing about Gov. James NJ. Cox of Ohio
that both his political friends and oppo-
nents agree upon absolutely:
He's the luckiest politician Ohio has
developed In the present generation.
Cox wants to be the next presidential
nominee of the democratic party.
If there's anything in luck, he ought
to get 1t.
Read his lucky record:
HAD NOMINATION
HANDED TO HIM.
For many years, up to 1908, tho Third
Ohio congressional district had been
heavily republican, with no chance for
a democratic editor like Jimmie" Cox
of the Dayton News, to break into Of
fee.
But in that year the republicans split
and had two candidates for congress at
the election. The democrats handed Cox
the democratic nomination on a platter.
He polled y the regular democratic
strength, while his two republican OPP
ponents divided theirs.
Cox walked into congress again in
1910, while the republican factions were
still knitting each other.
At the democratic state convention In
Toledo In 1912, Cox was nominated for
governor without opposition.
Taft had carried Ohio for president
ia 1908 by 10000, but in 1912 there was
big split between the republicans and
the bull moosers, and Cox won't into the
governors chair with an enormous plu-
rality.
He tried to repeat in 1914. when the
huh moosers again had gubernatorial

against the republicans, but this time be
failed and he went back to Dayton to

1t effect our contemporary opinion to
know that Miss Mae Helmer, the head OF

that Miss Benbridge, the able and ag

But back of all his luck in politics.
Cox possesses something that many an
other politician doesn't have: a dynamic
energy, a level head, and an almost IN
canny faculty for sensing public opinion.
He's about the smartest man Ohio has
seen in many a year. Even as a boy he
was smarter than his companions. Born
in poverty in Butler county he was a
country school teacher in his early teens,
and then a reporter on the Cincinnati
Enquirer. Paul Sorg, the millionaire to-
hacco man Of Middletown, got into con.
gress in the gOs, and picked young Cox
for his private secretary.
WAS BUSINESS MAN
AND EDITOR.
Cox was such a smart private secre-
tary that sorg backed him in buying
the Dayton News, a democratic news
paper.
Within a year or two Cox had made
the News the biggest money maker In
Dayton. He was not only the smartest
editor, but he stood out from all others
as a successful business man.
