GOVERNOR COX AT GARY TODAY

Democratic Standard Bearer Speaks In Steel City at 2:15 P. M. Governor James M. Cox, Democratic nominee for president, will speak in Gary this, Saturday, after noon at 2:15 o’clock, daylight sav-. Ing time,, oi) 1:15 standard time. This will be an opportunity for hundreds of readers of The Democrat, especially in the north part of Jasper county, to hear Governor Cox, as it is not much of a drive up to

Gary, and it will be the last opportunity to hear him before election. Governor Cox has made a wonderful campaign. He has spoken in more than half the .states of the Union and everywhere has met with a great reception, despite the underhanded work of the g. o. p. campaign managers In sending paid emissaries ahead of him to buy up newspapers and prevent his message going, to the people through the public press, as was publicly admitted and condemned by a Republican editor in New Mexico who refused to be bought. He Is a great man and is advocating a great cause. He has done an immense lot of good wherever he has spoken and it is only to be regretted that he could not have reached more of the people. But the tide that turned to him after his opponent’s Des Moines speech, in which the latter turned his back completely on the league of nations and wholly repudiated this great christianizing issue, will sweep the country next Tuesday and show to Mr. Harding and the senatorial oligarchy that the American people “have not forgotten” and that they want no separate peace with the late world enemy.
