C? as mall clatter of the second class. I i THURSDAY. SEPT. 30, 1920. -Governor Cox's complaint that the Pacific coast newspapers did not treat him fairly by refusing to print his speeches doubtless was well founded; but he might have gone farther and stated with equal truth that the AsBfe' sooiated Press also is unfair to him when it neglects to give fuller reports of his speeches and to tell of NgjSfl the wonderful reception he has received on his recent trip to the Northwest and on the Pacific coast. Enormous crowds have gathered to ? hear the governor In all the big cities he has visited In his speech-making tour, but one would not know it by reading the Associated Presto reports of his meetings. . k The Fort Mill Times confesses Its Inability to understand the reasoning of A. C. Thalne of Portland, Maine, who is quoted as having said In a iPMch Monday at Greensbonj, N. C? that If the Democratic party is to retain, control of the national government "the women of the South must vote in direct ratio with those of Northern States, or else be defeated. Furthermore,'^ said Mr. Thalne, "1 feel that, due ,to the sparsely settled States of the-'South it is an utter necessity' that on a whole a bigger proportion of * the Southern women kuust vote." All of which seems M> prove that Mr. Thalne is none to^ wgll informed on political conditions. Whether the women of the Bouih vote or not will have no effeot upon the result of the presidential election; the president of the United States is not elected by popular vote, as one might , infer Mr. Thalne believes to be the case. The South will go Democratic, -depend upon the men of the South to see to that. Meanwhile it is worth observing that if there is anything Mr. / Thalne (fan do to promote the success of the Democratic party in the forthcoming : election, he would bettef transfer,' hlB activity to the section where it is needed and will count for something. As a matter of course tha liopublieans are making the most of the fact that the New York gamble are offering odds on the election or Harding, just as they claimed the earth and everything in It as a reeult of the election In Mulno three weeks ago. Four years ago the betting in New York waf In favor of Hughes tagalnst President Wilson, but a day or two after the election the country i learned that the opinion of the gaiqblera and their efforts to Influence .the election had gone for naught. < In national politics especially It. is a part of the game to make big claims about what Is going to happen, regardless of whether there Is anything substantial on which to base the claims. There Is throughout the oouhtry an element of weakkneed dltlmena who have no political convlcUjona but who want to be o* the winning aide that it Ik possible to Influence in this way. Following the flourish of Harding money In New York we shall presently read that the New York Sun and Herald has Issued Its election forecast clalfntng all the doubtful States and others that are known to be Democratic for Harding. The unthinking and those who wish to be deceived will lay great store by the forecast and quote It as oertaln evidence that v Governor Cox has no chance of else uvn. i3ui any prognosxicaiion cne New York 0un and Herald may offer aa to the result of the election la discounted In advance, because It Is one of the most partisan Republican papers In the conntry and could not be fair to the Democratic party In any event An Inquiry. Editor Fort Hill Times: Permit me to ask the authorities of Fbtt Mill why It should have been neceeeafy for me to leave the slde* walk at the corner of Main and Confederal streets Saturday afternoon and whlk a block In Main street to pet to the depot to avoid squeeaing myself through the motley sidewalk crowd attracted to that corner by a repulsive snake show.
