Most .Important Event of tli

BY A. L. SHULTZ.
Kansas is waiting for Sen. Warren
G. Harding's answer to Governor Cox'
attack. 'The Republican senatorial
nominee comes to Kansas Saturday
following a big meeting In Kansas City
Jriday night. Kansas political ob
servers will follow the Harding
speeches in the west very closely In
order to Judge effects a invasions by
tfle two' presidential candidates.
Epecfr Big Crowds.
Many thousand Kansans are ex
pected te hear Senator Harding in
Kansas City, Wichita and Arkansas
City. H. H. Motter. stats chairman,
will try to handle the Kansas crowd
for. the Harding meeting. But his ap
plication for 1,060 reservations has
failed to produce the seats. Motter,
however, continues hopeful,
, Several hundred Shawnee county
Republicans will doubtless attend the
meeting. Arrangements are now be

Most Important of CamnaiiCD
The coming of Senator Harding to
Kansas City will probably be the most
important event in the pre-election
campaign. Last week Governor Cex
made an effective speech in the state.
Yet Republicans have pointed out that
in many details Cox was sly and eva.
slve and that his answers to questions
were craftily handled and really didn't
always angwer. Now there Is a de
mand that Senator Harding meet the
Cor speech in affiat and square state
ment. About the Uquor Issue.
Harding's statement asto the liquor
issue is probably f greatest concern
in Kansas. Usui Cox answered
queries as to his own stand by asking
why the Republican press In dry states
supported a candidate who owned an
Interest in a brewery. In Newton,
tho. Cox charged that of thirty-four
votes east by Harding on the liquor
question while In the senate, only
three of them were on the dry side.
Following the Kansas City meeting
Senator Harding -frill go to Wichita for
a morning, meeting. He speaks in Ar
kansas City at noon. He Is traveling
by special train.
Roosevelt Comes Tuesday.
Franklin p. Reosevelt, Democrat
nominee for vice president, comes to
the state Tuesday for speeches ln the
tirst, Seeend and Fifth districts. - A
number of prominent Kansas Oemo
c"ts as well as candidates for state
office will accompany Roosevelt on his
trip west on the Union Paelfle to Sa
una. The Roosevelt Itinerary calls for a
speech in Lawrence. at Id o'clock Tues-
y. morning.. A rear platform speech
will be made. In Topeka, the train stop
ping twenty minutes for the talk.
Other short talks will be made in Man
hattan. Junction City and Ahilene. A
night speech will conclude the candi
date's stay in this states He will en
ter Colorado Wednesday.
Allen Into the Seventh.'
Governor AUen Is speaking today In
Gieensburg. Pratt and Medicine
Lodge. He will talk Tuesday in An
thony and Harper, with a night speech
before the Wichita Press club. Last
week the governor campaigned in the
Sixth district, where he traveled 492
miles and made twenty-two speeches.
H. H. Motter, state chairman, accom
panied the governor on his northwest
ern trip. Large erowds, enthusiasm
and every indication ef an enormous
Republican success in November fea
tured the Sixth distriet meetings.
White Flays Cox.
"He Won't Do," Is the caption Over
an editorial in William Allen White'
Emporia Gazette. The editorial refers
to Governor Cox, whom the Emporia
editor characterises as "shifty, shallow
and unscrupulous." White declares
the Cox defeat spells, good-bye to the
Democrat party and will leave the
party "ln the hands of a crowd, that
has neither morals nor acumen."
Farewell Bump From White.
This the farewell bump which White
gives Cox:
James Cox. the Democratic candi
date for president, does not measure
up to the American standard; for near
ly three months -he has been standing
lit the spotlight ef publicity, and he
has dissppelnted his friends and parti
sans and more or less disgusted those
who had ne interest in him. He has
been tried in the balance and found
wanting. He is shifty, shallow and
unscrupulous. He -represents about all
the political standards of the big eity
bosses who nominated him, hoping to
secure the modification of the prohibi
tory law. He Is sdmetimes clever, but
never convincing. And his campaign
Is wasting away. He will Carry, fewer
northern states than Taft did. And
his defeat will leave the organisation
of the Democratic party la the hands
of a crowd that has neither morals
nor aeumen. After the defeat, Cox
cannot rehabilitate it; and Wilsen will
net have the physical strength te try.
The Republican party has been
given a. new lease efjife. It would
seem te be wise for every American
whs. feels the desire to participate et
feetively and forrighteous causes in
American politics, fo get his standing
in the Republican party straight and
unequivocal. Then after the election
he can have a voice in directing the
tendency ef the party in power. It
may be a hard job to turn the Rer
publican party forward; but Cox's cnr
didaey has made It A much harder job
to breathe life Into the Democratic
party. Cox wen't do except that he
has dene one thing; he has done the
Democratic party to death!

a campaign tour that teek him more
than eleven thousand miles and Into

river, except three. Governor James M.
Cox, tho supposed to rest for two days,
before going Into Kentucky and Ten
nessee, today continued his plea for
adoption ef the League Of Nations, the
paramount issue of the campaign.
In an address to a body of women
the' governor . went into considerable
detail why women should support the
league cause, asserting thruout the
years they .have been the leaders of
progress in the world, and declaring
that wrath of the women who were
made to suffer in the war will pursue
Frana Joseph, William Hohensellern
and Nicholas Romanoff "thru all eter
nity." Tho asserting that the monetary
cost of the war, direct and Indirect,
was (109,060,000,000, it was the wo
men , Governor Cox declared, who
know what the war really eost. "For
they paid the prices in personal suf
fering to provide the rulers of the
earth with ten million men. which
were thrown into the gauges ef battle
to placate the anger ot the gods of
war.".
The league, Governor Cox said, not
only will prevent war, which he' as
serted, is its primary purpose, but also
will promote progress and will set up
or itself become a clearing house for

What Is Beautiful Must
Also Be Profitable
Socrates called beauty & short-lived ty
ranny; Plato, a privileg-e of. nature i Theo
phrastus, a ilent cheat; Theocritus, a de
lightful prejudice; Carneades, a solitary
kingdom; Domitian said, that nothing was
more, rrateful ; . Aristptle affirmed that
beauty was beter than all the letters of
recommendation In the world; Homer, that
'twas a jrlorious gift of nature; and Ovid,
alluding to him, called it a favor bestowed by
th gods.. v
- -.
Unity and mmplialiv arehe true sources
of beauty, and the criterion is that it in
creases on examination.
Ju.it so with a conscientious banking pol
- Icy. We have unity in Action and always ex
tend simplicity to our customers in order thftt
they may thoroughly understand each and
every 'transaction. That makes' "trading"
