Silly/ Says He.
MARION, 0.. Aug. 18.—Senator Warren
G. Harding, republican nominee for
to attend today the annual picnic of the
lumbermen of the Marlon district at
Lincoln park here.
The senator said he probably would
deliver a short Informal address to the
lumbermen, among whom were numbered
lifelong friends.
His “keynote” address of the week,
however, was to be delivered tomorrow,
when present and former members of
the Ohio state assembly are to gather
at the front porch.
“I trust it will be now generally un
derstood that my front porch campaign
1m to go on,” the senator said.
“All reports to the contrary are, of
course, silly.”
It was said at the candidate’s head
quarters that yesterday’s conference be
tween him and Republican National
Chairman Will H. Hays, Senator Harry
S. New of Indiana, chairman of the re
publican speakers' bureau, and other re
publican leaders, had resulted in a speak
ing campaign for the senator being
mapped out, which would fit in with bis
front porch campaign.
‘’’Senator Harding's campaign will be
conducted in accord with the dignity of
one who aspires to the high office of the
United States," Senator New said.
"Os course he will deliver a number of
important addresses at Important centers
of popnlation.
“That has been his plan since he was
nominated.
"I am only speaking for myself when
I say we care not for the antics of Gov.
Cox. nor do we believe the American peo
ple care for the antics of a whirling der
vish.
“We do not think they want “Jimmie"
in the wbitehouse.”
