Facts and Figu
From
Democratic Candidate Tells of -Republican
Plans to Raise Money.
Has List of Cities Ex
pected to Assist.
Pittsburgh, Aug. 26.?Information
to support his charges that a Republican
campaign fund exceeding $15,000,000
was being raised "in conspiracy
to buy the presidency" was
presented by Governor Cox of Ohio,
Democratic presidential candidate, in
addressing a public meeting here to
night.
Governor Cox's data consisted almost
entirely of matter taken from
the official bulletin of Fred W. Upham
of Chicago, treasurer of the Republican
national committee, but his
chief exhibit was a typewritten list
purporting to show Republican campaign
quotas imposed on 51 principal
cities in 27 states and aggregating
$8,145,000.
Names of local subscribers, Gov<
?
ernor Cox said, were ordered kept
secret. These quotas, given as $2,000,000
for New York city, $750,000
for Chicago, $500,000 for Philadel
phia and ranging down to ?2o,WV lor j
smaller cities like Atlanta, Ga., were
said by Governor Cox to have been
announced about the middle of July.
That Senator Harding, his Republican
opponent, "was acquainted
with the details" of the quota plan
vand that it was also approved by
Will H. Hays, chairman of the Republican
national committee, was
charged by the Democratic candidate.
j
From subsequent issues of the Of- j
ficial Bulletin, Governor Cox quoted
many reports from Republican workers
throughout the country reporting
going "over the top" and in excess
of the alleged quotas.
Announcement by Blair.
Announcement of the $8,145;000
metropolitan quotas, Governor Cox!
said, was made by Harry M. Blair, !
assistant to Treasurer Upham. A |
meeting was held in Chicago, Governor
Cox said, at which Will H. Hay3,
chairman of the KepuDiican nations ?
committee,, "spoke his blessing."
The governor charged that the J
typewritten sheets bearing the cities' j
quotas "were distributed to those as- j
sembled" and he produced one of the j
alleged quota lists, but did not state 1
how or where it was acquired. i
That the reputed attempt to raise j
$8,145,000 from 51 cities in 27 of ;
the 48 states is fair evidence that the j
i
total national fund will be larger was
declared by Governor Cox, who said
big business men were prominent on j
the Republican ways and means j
committee and that the raising of j
funds was on a business "salesmanship"
basis.
Governor Cox also quoted from
statements in the Republican bulletin
that state and county organizations j
were Hot to be "disturbed or retarded i
in their activities." j
Governor Cox, standing staunchly i
by his charges that an attempt to I
purchase the presidency was being i
made, declared that "the* senatorial J
oligarchy and their friends are hark- i
ing back to the days of Mark Hanna," 1
stating that in the 1896 campaign J
-which Mr. Hanna managed, $16,500,-;
000 was spent.
"It was this foul thing," said Gov- !
ernor Cox, "which Theodore Roose- \
velt brought to an end when he re-1
formed the Republican party. When J
he was doing it, Warren G. Hard- j
ing branded him an an Aaron Burr." j
"I charge again an assault on the j
electorate," said Governor Cox. "It:
can't be hidden; the hosts are mar- j
shalled, the money ammunition is '
prepared, but it will not succeed, j
' 1 -- i
The net is spreaci in si^hl ui mv.
quarry." j
The typewritten list of cities and i
quotas presented by Governor Cox j
included:
Official quotas: |
New York city $2,000,000 j
Philadelphia 750,00 !
Detroit 500,00
Detroit 450,000
Pittsburgh 400,000

Memphis 25,000
Governor Cox added that he ''intended
to pass the evidence" to the
senate campaign investigating committee.
On the question of keeping secret
all local subscriptions Governor Cox
tha oflRfinl bulletin Of
IJUUICU il Vlil wiv
August 16 as follows:
"The names and amounts subscribed
by local honors should not
be made public locally."
Full Publicity Given.
"I hereby give it wide and nonexclusive
publicity," Governor Cox
continued. "Why were the names
of local contributors not to be made
known? Was it because each contribution
would carry its own meaning
to the voters in the local communities?
Certainly there is some
reason. What is it? The public is
antitled to know.
"If Mr. Hays and Mr. Upham do
* 1 -J-T- A (
not come lorwara wun me iniuimotion
thp Republican national committee
ought to remove them both.
Furthermore, there should be some
explanation of this being made purely
a business affair, participated in
by business men and business men
only. Unexplained*, it carries its |
own con-demnatiOn and exposes the
purpose of the whole shameful business.
It means that the quota is to
be assessed against those who are to
benefit, and that the captains of industry
who have answered Mr. Hays'
roll call are submitting to taxation
with the understanding that they will
have. representation."
Quoting from a "message" written
by Senator Harding, the Republican
nominee, in the Official Bulletin of
August 5, Governor Cox said that
Senator Harding expressed his gratitude
for "the enthusiasm shown" in
raking the campaign fund.
"That Mr. Harding is acquainted
even with the details of the enterprise
is evidenced by a subsequent
passage/' said Governor Cox, "which
is as follows:
" 'Through the tine work of ycur
organization we are nearing t'hat
form of political patriotism which expresses
itself in support from every
county, every state. I want ali members
of your organization to feel that
their efforts are essential to our success
in planning for national enlightenment
and deeply appreciated
Vwtr a * **
UJ, 111^.
On Industrial Problems.
In addition to his statement on
Republican finance Governor Cox
touched upon industrial problems:
"The 'normalcy' voiced by their
candidate was visioned by his masters,"
said Governor Cox in this connection
referring to Senator Harding
"as bayonets at the factory door, unrestrained
profiteering at the gates
of the farm?the burden of government
on shoulders other than their
own, and the federal reserve system
as an annex to big business. When
the American people fully grasp the
sinister menace hanging over them
tx-ill cVmn if a rjlaffue."
-W ? X f-y
Returning to the campaign fund
question Governor Cox reminded his
audience in order, he said, to reach
a proper understanding that recent >
contributions of large sums by business
interests began in the case of
Senator Newberry of Michigan.
Senator Newberry, the candidate
continued, was convicted in a Republican
state and community, before
Republican judge, grand and petit
juries. "One would have thought,"
said the speaker, "that this experience
would have had its restraining
influence on certain events but the
resolve of certain interests to take
over the affairs of our government

AT WiLLOWBROOK PARK
Willowbrook park gets prettier
ivery year and it is in fact one of

s none that is prettier or better
idapted for the use to which this

The county campaign meeting
:losed at the park on Saturday night,
rhere was a large crowd present,
nany coming from the country

til spoke from the steps to the band

ill the candidates had to say was
^ood and the applause a little more
generous than at some of the other
neetings.
The band played before the speakng
began but when the speaking
:tarted there was no time to have
nusic in between because it would
iave made the meeting too long.
After the county candidates naa
inisherl there was a request for Congressman
Dominick to speak and he
iddressed the men and women presmt.
The campaign has been conducted

Secretary Colby Signs Proclamation

lows Notice From Tennessee.
Washington, Aug. 26.?Withou:
pomp and ceremony, Secretary Colby
today signed the proclamation declaring
the woman suffrage amendment
"to all intents and purposes a
part of the constitution of the United
States."
The secretary's signature was afSxed
to the proclamation at his home
at 8 o'clock this morning, a few
hours after he had received from
Governor Roberts of Tennessee the
certificate that final favorable action
on the amendment had been taken
by the legislature of that state completing
the required 36.
"The seal of the united ataies nas
been duly .affixed to hte certificate
and the suffrage amendment is now
the 19th amendment to the constitution,"
Secretary Colby announced on
reaching his office two hours after he
had placed his signature to the proc amation.
Mr. Colby was awakened at 3:45
o'clock this morning by Charles L.
Cook, state department employee,
who notified him that the Tennessee
certification had arrived. The secre
tary then called F. K. Nielson, department
solicitor, to examine the
Tennessee papers,? also instructing
the solicitor to bring the proclamation
to the secretary's home at 8
o'clock.
Undue Eagerness Avoided.
"While it was my thought," the
secretary explained later, "to avoic
tmdce eagerness in signing the proclamation
I found no reason to conspicuously
loiter. I had an advcrs
ion to sign in the wee small hours of
the night, and 8 a. m. I thought was
the earliest regular hour I should begin
to function."
Observing that "the great end oi
the enfranchisement of women ' is
too important a thing to be treated
with levity,''' the secretary explained
that he had refused to repeat the act
of signing upon his arrival at tlfe
state department.
When he reached the department
the secretary found several members
of the national woman's party,
headed by its chairman, Alice Paul,
awaiting to witness the signing. .This
disappointment was not concealed
when it was learned that he had
acted, and the secretary's later invitation
that they hear a statement
was declined. Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Catt, president of the National Woman's
Suffrage association, and some
other suffrage workers, however, ac
cepted the invitation. In this formal
statement, Mr. Coiby said:
"The certified record of the action
of the legislature of the state of
Tennessee on the suffrage amendment
was received by mail this morning.
Immediately on its receipt the
record was brought to my house.
This was in compliance with my directions
and in accordance with numerous
requests for prompt action.
I thereupon signed the certificate requested
of the secretary of state this
| morning at '6 o ciock in uie picscutc
of F. K. Nielson, the solicitor of the
state department, and Charles L.
Cook, also of the state department.
The seal of the United States has
been duly affixed to the certificate
and the suffrage amendment is now
the 19th amendment of the Constitution
of the United States.
"I congratulate the women of the
country upon the successful culmination
of their efforts which have
been sustained in the face of many
discouragements and which have now
j conducted them to the achievement
of that great object.
i "The day marks the day of the
! opening of a great and new era in the
| political life of the nation.
Fresn Vigor to Come.
"I confidently believe that every
I salutary, forward and upward iorce
[ in our public life will receive fresh
vigor and reinforcement from the enfranchisement
of the women of the
country."
