COX IN INDIANA: — In his spectres in Indiana Wednesday Governor Cox discussed the. league of nations in a straight forward way. and declared that it should be, as soon as it can be made so. ;■ league of nations, and .lot simply one of victors. The governor said: I favor the admission of Germany: 1 favor also the admission of Russia when both countries have established an orderly government. 1 favor the admission of even Turkey after sin has had a thorough sanitary overgoing. In other words, we want to make not only the civilization of the’ world a better civilization, but we want to bring every government making up the civilization of the world into an agreement to make war virtually impossible in the future. There was much discussion at! Paris as to whether Germany should bo admitted to the league and finally it was provided that: , Any fully self-governing state.: dominion or colony not named in the annex may become a member of the;

The speaker said : "We and Germany, Russia, Turkey Mexico and Henry Cabot Ladge an standing outside.” The gevornor repeated his chargeas to the republican campaign fund The country will wait for proof which is promised in the speech Pittsburg tonight, before making u its mind about them. It was sue gested in this paper n few weeks ag that it would be easily possible so the relations between the presiden and the senate to be too close am intimate, and that is true.

out adequate car supply. The recurrent labor troubles iu the mining sections have grown oitl of the clrcum stances of the men not being enabled to keep at work. They have insisted upon a scale that would enable them to live. When the mines are closed they have no other opportunity of employment, because they are far from industrial centers. With the miner, it is not how much lie receives an hour or a day. but a year. It Is apparent, therefore, that the high cost of coal Is not due to the miner, but to the condition of tire railroads. condition of the railroads.— Indianapolis News. The republican fund of millions vill not suffice to win the election. The people of this country, prosper >us and happy, will not consent t< urn the government over to a half lozen senators who will conduct H or a few.

Th< lemocratic party during file pas ight years has given the people th< ederal reserve law as well as many ithers and has done more for the >ublic than has any administratioi n a half century. One of the popular methods of dis ributing funds in a campaign is thr Racing of money in the hands o' gents in various communities so: he purpose of betting on the result: f election, the idea being that thi: irouses the confidence of the work ers and disturbs the opposition There are indications that this plai ; s now being used in Adams county is well as elsewhere and Senatoi •’omreiie of Ohio is investigating the dan which will very probably be ex posed in a rather startling manner before election day. The way to help make your gov rnment better is to vote and to de hat you must register September ith or you will not be qualified. Every man ami woman who is ove he age of twenty-one is entitled to ast a vote but they must register in lie precinct in which they live and hat includes you.

Build a house in Decatur this fall. Each day we are securing new names to the proposed list of twenty-five and we hope to be able to announce them by next week. It will be splendid boom for the old town if this can be done and we are sure it can be. It’s a good time to do it and it’s a good cause. A house in Decatur is a splendid investment now. You can get a doz en renters for it or you can sell it at a profit. We need a hundred houses badly right now and it should be easy to get pledges for twenty-five of them to be started during the next month.

August 28. —(Special o Daily Democrat, —Texas democrats went to the primary polls today to hoose between Joseph W. Bailey and Pat M. Neff for governor. Hereto ore the democratic nomination has 1 been equivalent to election. The principal issue in the gubernatorial campaign was the "open shop.” the industrial principle defended by Neff, a former speaker of the state house ot representative. The campaign was bitter, Bailey’s pptnents attacking the former senator's war record. In return Bailey barged that Neff, although of draft ge during the war. failed to reg'ster for service. Neff presented the testimony of iiis mother and the records f- thc- family Bible to refute that charge. Charles Liechtenberger is improv- ‘ ing and getting along nicely after 1 undergoing an operation for appendi- ‘ citis. I

"But conditions have changed,’ he continued. “We know now thal the league constituted at Versailles is utterly impotent as a preventative of wars. It is so obviously impoteni that it has not even been tried. II could not survive a single test. The original league, mistakenly conceived and unreasonably insisted upon, has undoubtedly passed beyond the possibility of restoration. The matter judgment of the world will be that it deserveel to pass for the very simple reason that, contrary to all of he tendencies developed by the civlizing processes of the world, it rested upon the power of might, not of right.” Miss Madge Lingenfelder, of Fort Wayne, who has been nursing Mrs. ’harles Liechtenberger who has been ritically ill at the H.
