Great Sums of For i Cox Places Minimum for Camp ! 1 . rr? 1 democratic i~anaiaate iaKes of Senator Harding a South Bend, Ind., Aug:. 19.? Charges that at least $15,000,-000 are 'being contributed to the Kepublican campaign by selfish interests were < made today by Governor Cox, Demo- j cratic presidential candidate, during the course of two addresses opening the Indiana Democratic campaign: "That is its low mark," he said, j "and the sky apparently is the limit. In Ohio $500,000 was raised in the twinkling of an eye. They have subdivided America in seven districts and influential men representing selfish and greedy interests are passing the hat. They are trying to buy a governmental underholt. It is a mere bagatelle compared with what the contributors expect to get back." Pleas for the league of nations, denunciations of what he said was the Republican plan for separate peace with Germany, promises of tax reductions and problems of the high cost of living were other features of Governor Cox's address. He spoke to a crowd of several thousand late today on the court house square, attended a banquet of the Indiana Tiomnprntip Editors* association and tonight addressed another large crowd at another large public meeting in the coliseum. Plan of Wall Street. With the Republican campaign fund a special object of the governor's attack* he declared that Wall street interests were planning to emasculate the federal reserve act in event of Republican victory by providing that bankers only shal be eligible to a federal board membership; to secure power over credits aud interest rates. Governor Cox also urged federal relation of packers and other cold storage concerns with time limits for storage of foodstuffs. To the editors in his audience comprising about 500, Governor Cox gave his views on the print paper situation urging reforestation, inveighing against a print paper combina- j -? -- > j--i?;? ^ i xion ana aecxaiiiig a pauit nau cwn tributed to the paper shortage. He j also took sharp exception to Senator | Harding's depreciation of the disap- j pearance of political organs. Urging j an "independent press," Governor j Cox said that Senator Harding's was, "a dangerous proposal" suggesting control of papers by the "senate (. oligarchy." Tennessee's ratification of the wo- ! man suffrage amendment brought j from the candidate fin his discussion j of the league the statement that war is more unlikely than yesterday. Women Will Help Praising women as "progressive j and patriotic," Governor Cox con- j tinued: "I think they are going To help j things. Their mother instinct is go- j ing to stay the hand of war and that j in itself is sufficient to justify the ' cause of woman suffrage." The league, Governor Cox de- ' dared, is necessary to "keep faith , with the boys who died in France," ! | and also, he said, involves "the pur- J pose, the home, the happiness and the i self respect of every man, woman j and child." It is needed, he said, to reduce the cost of living by decreasing taxes for j armament, and by stabilizing agri culture and industry. It is the great , transcendant issue of the campaign, I he declared. j Republican arguments that the league would impair Air ^ncan sov-; ereignty were pronounced "moonshine" bv the governor, declaring that if American sovereignty was im- , paired so would that of 29 other league members. "If they all lose it, where d^3s it go?" he asked. "Who gets it?" "Former President Taft Says Cox j is right and Harding wrong," the 1 governor continued, "but that he will j vote for Harding. If I am right you owe it to your conscience to vote for me. "The league of nations is the sali Money Republican Use aign at Fit teen Million uoiiars. j Sharp Exception to Position j nd Senate Oligarchy. i rvation of the people of every nation. . Screen of Hypocrisy. Republican opposition, Governor Cox reiterated, is "a smoke screen of hypocrisy to secure the spoils of office." / / He also denied that the league would get America into every European "squabble," reiterating that congress only may declare war and order Americans to foreign duty. 1 Some Republicans, Governor Cox said, objected to President Wilson's. j visit to France. "The president went," the speaker asserted, "to prevent consummation of a dishonorable peace"' and, he suggested, "won a greater victory at the peace tabic in the world pence plan than was se:' cured in battle." Governor Cox also rapped Senator Harding's front porch campaign and' often assailed the Republican "senatorial oligarchy" which he said, was "now attempting to elect one of its mpmhprs president." Reiterating that he was "a free man," Governor Cox said that he would "not be tied to my front porch by a senatorial ring or any other kind of ring, nor owned by any such combination when in the White House." Attacking the Republican campaign fund Governor Cox said that the "minimum fund which is demanded is $15,000,000.'' In PIvofal States "This will not be scattered gen- j erally over the country but it will be used in certain close and pivoted states," he said, "and it will be put to the uses which can not be defined in ethics. Meetings are being held i now in the cities, quotas are being allotted and the money is coming in/' Certain bankers who Governor Coxsaid* are contributing are those who he charged were seeking to emasculate the' federal reserve act. "Many bankers in writing their checks," he continued, "to the Republican national committee are simply making an investment." Such contributions are not being made and would not be received by thr Democrats, Governor Cox declared, adding: "And I intend to cast my eye on every contribution and we are not going to have any tainted money." Others, he continued,-are writing large checks so that if their puppets ' -1- ?i. i ana tuois ?;t:L liuu umce have the bayonet to enforce their will. Referring to the spread of Bolshevism, Governor Cox declared:: "The surest gauarantee of Bolshevism is -an administration which is revealed to have bought the presidency." Shortt-Harmon.

I drove cut in my new 111 and carried President Kibler. The secretary furnishes a detailed account of the convention but I feel like saying a word or two about the meeting. There was a large attendance and the good spirit that prevailed among the delegates and visitors made it a most pleasant and profitable day for all who were present. President Kib- j ler is an enthusiastic and ardent i worker for the Sunday school, and I during his administration the past year the interdenominational association has made much progress an:! has done good work. Mr." Kibler believes in doing things when he goes at it, . and he does things, as was evidenced by the large number of delegates present and the fine program which he had arranged. This was my first opportunity to attend service in this church. It was | a matter of regret to an mat tno pao-1 tor, the Rev. E. C. Croker, couli not be present, but he has not been very well for some time, and is now off on his vacation, but will be back by the first Sunday in September to resume his labors, and all wish that he may be much improved in health. ' Smyrna is one o? the fine country churches in this county and has a large and substantial membership and I the good people take a pride in keep-1 ing their church in the front rank and have made during the recent past some very great improvements in the arrangement and important additions so as to accommodate the Sunday i eehool. President Kibler had directed me to go cut and take the Rev. E. V. Babbrs place on the program. Of course I could not do that, but I did the best I could under the embarrassment of trying to take the place. The Sunday scnooi wont is a .^wv one, and it is gratifying: to sc^ the interest being taken in it by the- men as well as the women. The proper training of the children is the great problem before the men and women of this generation. Much of the future greatness of our republic depends upon it and the training received in the Sunday school is among the best and most lasting that you can give to the children. The good people of Smyrna and the visiting delegates spread the dinner on the ground and every one had a sufficient of the good things which , the women of Newberry know so well' . how to prepare. The following resolutions offered by the committee on resolutions, E. H. Aull, J. Y. Jones , and James F. Epting, expressed in some feeble way the sentiments of the convention and were heartily J, adopted by the delegates: j Rsolvcd, That this county Sunday , school convention desires to put on \ record its appreciation of^the cordial < welcome and hearty and soul inspiring reception and entertainment it has received from the good and hospitable people of the Smyrna church J and community. ^ nr.nrecir'.tion Z.

Decatur, Ala., Aug. 21.?"It shall not pass,'' was the new battle cry taken up by the 30 filibustering members of the Tennessee house quartered at a local hotel here today. The 25 legislators who crossed the state line into Alabama this morning at daylight to break a quorum in the house and prevent final ratification of the Susan B. Anthony suffrage amendment, were joined by five adrli + innnl momhprs this afternoon. Sunday morning the entire party will attend services at the First Baptist church here, wearing in the lapels of their coats the emblem, a red rose, signifying their opposition to ratification of the suffrage amendment. The silence which the filibustcrers have maintained since their arrival here this morning was broken tonight by Representative Kail of Nashville, who gave an extended interview setting forth the reasons for the flight from Tennessee. "T i T> T> T " in iODO, X"iirsuil -DIUV?H uvvy waned an extraordinary session of the negro and carpet bagger legislature and at the point of the bayonet ratified the 14th amendment," he said. "This action was talked over and to prevent a recurrence of such action there was incorporated into the constitution a provision that no legislator shall ever act on a federal amendment unless the amendment is submitted before said legislator is electcd. The 19th amendment was passed in May, 1919. This legislature was elected in November, 1918." XT o 11 orm-nr] f Vl o COCll i,a ti? t: nan wiu federal amendment was a blow at state rights, an'd declared that its ratification would place in ' federal hands the authority over elections. Governor Roberts again was charged with exerting coercion to force reprepresentatives to vote for ratification by Representative Hal!. "We know," he Said, "that certain members of the legislature who hold political appointments under the present governor are not voting the will of the people they were elected to represent, nor, according to the -1 - - X ? 1 J- 1- ~ A/vv?f/?l/N?AA knf nictates UI U1UU own tunaticiitc, uui, according1 to the mandate of the state's chief executive." ( Four more legislators are on Alabama soil and are due here Sunday, according to Representative Hall of Nashville. The names of those who arrived this afternoon were given as Representatives Whitfield, Boyd, Skidmore, Crawford and Smith. Representatives Russell, Rucker, McMurray and Cheek are due here tomorrow.
