Moan webster did not run up against
the word and the only definition we
can find Is the one given by the "Pla-

SENATOR 'BORAH WANTS
TO Aid JOHN K. SHIELDS
Noted Opponent of League Ma =
tions May Come to Tennes-
see on Speaking Tour.

Washington Oct 2.-(Special)-It Is
announced that Senator Borah, of idaho,
who has cancelled his speaking dates
Tor the republican presidential ticket
because of Senator Harding's unspe-
cific and unsatisfactory attitude on the
league OF nations, will probably arrange
speaking tour In Tennessee to help
Senator John X. Shields win the favor
OF the people of that state in his oppo-
sition to the league,
Senator Borah's desertlon OF the
Harding campaign was veritable bomb
In the republican camp.
Confusion among the leaders and the
national organization has followed the
announcement. All kinds of excuses
and explanations are being made in
justification of Borah's attitude, but the
outstanding sfaCt remains that he has
evidently Withdrawn his support Of the
republican ticket at the most critical
time in the campaign, which has caused
Chagrin and confusion.
AS soon as Senator Borah found that
Senator Harding had no specific or def
mite Views on the league Of nations,
or else that he was all things to all
men on that question, he withdrew his
present support OF the republican pres
identiaI nominee, and at once began
arrangements TO make an organized
fight aEairst not only the pending
league, but any league whatever.
II Is said that he will go 10 the aid
OF All opponents OF the ltdRue, bulil "'N, J.,
ocrats ard republicans, and that he VIII
not again raise his voice In support OF
Harding, who has failed TO make his
position clear ana who has all along
been iocieying with the irreconcllahlcs.
Senator Borah win not only SPEAK In
dcfsnse Of senator Shields position on
the league but he will likewise go to
Connecticut 70 help Senator BrandeEc"
and to New Hampshire TO help Senator
Moses
It is predicted here that what has
caused Senator Borah to desert the re-
ruhliCan national ticket Will cause other
hitter endors' 10 take similar stems
