!W. E. PREDICTS G.O.P. VICTORY Says Harding Will Carry Middle West Democratic Strongholds. """ ' TT J. BART CAMPBELL r INTERNATIONA L NEWS SERVICE 1 MARION, O., Aug. " A republican sweep of the middlewest with democratic strongholds bordering the "solid south" like Missouri. Kentucky and Tennessee turning republican because of the far-reaching unpopularity of the Wilson administration" was predicted today by Rc p . -At-Large "Wm. E. Mason, a former United States senator of Illinois, who saw various aspects of the campaign with Senator Warren G. Harding, republican nominee for president, as they sat together on the Harding front porch. Mason was frebh from a mass meeting of Friends of Irish Freedom at Cincinnati and from a tour of Illinois. Iowa and Ohio. He declared Illinois would "go all of 2M0.0OU republican." "The victory of Harding and Coolidge will he the most overwhelming since Grant' time," Mason said. "1 have participated in every campaign rince that which rtsulied In Grant'a j election and I have never seen one,' get under way so well for the repub-' ! Iiciir party as this one has. j j "If only because of Article X of the! j league of nations covenant, to whicn 'Gov. Cox. the democratic nominee for I president, stands committed like his j illustrious preceptor at the White House, the friends of Ireland In this country will vote the republican ticket." Mason -continued. "'Those Americans who want Ireland freed will support Harding because they know Cox Is committed to the Wilson program of 'internationalism,' and that Article X. which is the "heart of that program." and not 'tho heart of the world.' would bind Ireland to England an dbind the American people to help to bind the Irish people from ever securing their freedom. "I observe Gov. Cox refuses to reply to the pointed questions put to him by Senator Harding regarding whatever pladges he made to President "Wilson respecting our foreign polic-. ies. No wonder. Gov.. Cox cannot answer these questions Trankly and fully because he would ruin himself politically if he attempted to do so. He will doubtless continue to evade and equivocate." Mason said wherever he had gone re ; eently in middle western states he had ' learned of "shoals of democrats'' pre- j paring to support the republican tic-; fcet. i IX- described the situation in Ohio as "most encouraging." He said Gov. Cox had never "won a straight away fight against the republicans in his 1 own state." DEATH OF MRS. AKER Ida Mae Aker. wife of Jaj. B.
