THOUSANDS GIVE
GOVERNOR COX
GREAT OVATION
(Continued From Pf* One.)
were adopted and then it was given to
Charles Evans Hughes, four years ago
the candidate of the Republican party
for the presidency, for scrutiny and sug
gestion.
Mr. Hughes made seven suggestions,
five of which were written In.
"I see that Judge Hughes. In the
speech delivered here today, says that his
suggestions were not ‘literally' written
Into the covenant," the candidate said.
“The spirit and .the provisions and the
principles of what he suggested were
written, and In fact. Instead of five, you
might In full propriety say that the
greater part of another suggestion, which
makes ,sly suggestions; they all were
written Into the covenant of the leagu.
“At the peace table at Versailles all of
these amendments and additions were
approved.
“You ask why It was made a part of
the Treaty of Peace?
“For the very simple reason that the
one compensation of this great war Is
peace, peace for your generation and
peace for all future generations.”
INDORSED BY EVERY
RELIGIOUS SECT.
After the covenant was brought back
to America by the President, it was in
dorsed by practically every important
religious sect In the country, he said,
citing a list of favorable resolutions by
Catholic and Protestant, Jew and Gentile
bodies.
“What Is the point of this religious en
dorsement?
“It is this: That when we were spirit
ual we were all agreed, and we did not
differ until we became political.
“More than that, when God talked to
ns we were for It.
“When Lodge talked to some Amer
icans they were against it."
There was prolonged cheering when
the speaker declared that to his mind
the most important indorsement of all
was that of the Gold Star Mothers, whose
81,000 boys lie In France.
He analyzed the opposition which de
veloped from the senatorial oligarchy,
showing how the President had earnestly
endeavored to get Into the treaty and
the covenant all the practical sugges
tions made by Congress upon his re
turn from his first trip to France.
These suggestions wers worked Into
the document, he said, and yet “before
the President had a chance to set foot
on the soil of France, while he was yet
In mid-ocean, the basest conspiracy in
all the history of mankind was under
way In the United States Senate.”
One by one Governor Cox enlled th*
names of the leaders of the thirty-eight
Senators who signet! the Infamous round
robin denouncing the league, and one
by one the crowd hissed and hooted
them.
For each of these men Governor Cox
predicted a return to private life on
March 4.
“I said to you that this question of
peace was almost too sacred to be a
political question, bnt it Is In this cam
paign because of that conspiracy.
“It Is necessary to come to the people
In order that under the Institutions of a
free Government the people might undo
a great wrong which was perpetrated In
the Senate of the United States, and I
believe you will admit with me the Im
propriety of even suggesting that cne
of the conspirators himself should be
nssigned to the task of conducting the
process of correcting that great wrong
when he was a party to the perpetration
of the deed himself."
The Governor took up the form of the
league, article by article, and clearly ex
plained its Intent and defended It agalns:
objections which have been raised.
Article 10. he said. Is based upon the
Commandment, “Thou sbalt not steal,”
and Is nothing more “horrible" than the
prohibition of territorial grand larceny.
He showed how the league was de
signed to prevent the four causes of
war—theft of territory of weaker nations
by stronger, great national armaments
secret diplomacy and the practice of
monarehs declaring war without con
sulting their pcop'es.
TAKES IT OBJECTIONS
TO T!IE COVENANT.
Taking np the objections to the cove
nant,'Governor Cox asked:
"I suppose they hare told you In Indi
ana that If we go into the league, we
will have to send onr boys overseas,every
time there is a row In a European back
alley Have you heard that In Indiana?”
For Itching Eczema,
Old Sores and Piles
“T guarantee my ointment." says Pe
terson of Buffalo, “to cure eczema; to
stop the itching at once nnd any re
liable druggist will cheerfully refund
your money if PETERSON’S OINT
MENT doesn't do everything I say It
will do.”
William A. Carley of Franklin, N.
is surelv a wise man. He writes: “I
used PETERSON’S OINTMENT on a
little boy suffering terribly with ec
zema. It did the work."
Then there is Alex. Lout tel, a brave
fireman of Buffalo, who is glad to writ#
as follows: “I had an old sore on my
leg for many years. The best doctors
[ailed PETERSON’S OINTMENT en
tirely healed the sore quickly." And from

Cries of “Yee” came from the aud
ience.
“Is the superintendent of schools here,
or a professor In any of your universi
ties?"
Somebody in the audience shouted:
“They are all Republicans.”
“Don’t fool yourselves, gentlemen,”
Governor Cox said, “they are Americans
and most of them are for the covenant
of the league all over America.
“The chances are that every professor
in your State university is out tonight
making a speech for the league."
The candidate said he wished to ask
tho school men a question about the
Constitution nnd then proceeded to show
it Is impossible to make a treaty which
runs counter to It and hence Congress
still would retain the sole right to de
war or send American troops over
seas. i, i
MORE POWER
THAN POLICE CHIEF.
"The President, while commander-In
ehlef of the Army and Navy, hasn’t any
more power to declare war than the
chief of police In the city of Indianapo
lis,” he added.
He demonstrated that unanimous con
sent is required for league action on
important controversies and disposed of
the “six to one votes" objection.
“Six to one,-have you heard that?"
he asked.

“ Yes,” came from the crowd, and“. Tim
Watson put that out.”
"What is tt that Jim tells you? That
England has six votes?” the candidate
continued.
“Yes,’’ the crowd roared, and someone
added:
“But who will believe it?”
Mr. Cox continued:
"There is only one thing wrong with
that statement, otherwise it is all right.
“The one thing that is wrong is that
there Isn't a word of truth in it.”
He then showed that England has
only one vote and that If the Hitchcock
reservations had been adopted by the
Senate that England could not even have
had the support of her five colonies In
any controversy concerning her.
SHATTERS ANOTHER
ANTI ARGUMENT.
“It will Interfere with tho aspirations
of the Irish people; have you heard
that?” tho candidate said, passing on to
the next objection.
“What are the facts?"
He was interrupted by a cry from
the audience:
“The Irish don’t believe them."
“It is pretty hard to fool the Irißh
people,” the candidate replied, and then
put himself on record again as being
In favor of the principle of self determi
nation for Ireland because the peace
of {he whole world is bound up with

the Irish question.
Turning from the objections to the
league, Governor Cox gave attention to
the position of the Republican party
and its candidate on it, showing the
long series of twists and turns and
about-faces the opponents have executed.
“It Is not often that I am compelled
to apologize to an audience," he said,
“but I am driven to that necessity this
evening.
“I can’t tell you where Senator Hard
ing stands tonight because I have had
n very busy day and I haven’t yet read
the evening paper.”
"Let us take up the practical view
point that we must give to Senator
Harding’s suggestion. We must have
no consideration whatsoever of the wel
fare of the other nations elesewhere In
the world. What does that mean?
Physical Isolation, commercial Isolation.
That means that we will build a com
mercial world of our own.
"Men and women, we cannot grow ns
a nation unless we grow commercially.
Wo cannot grow unless we sell our sur
plus from farm and factory. There Is
evidence of a business decline now. You
see It In shop, mill, mine and on the
farm. Why la it?
"Because the demand for our surplus
has stink every day until it has almost
gone to nothing—why? Because the na
tions of Europe cannot buy—why? Be
Made over the FAMOUS BOSTONIAN LASTS that are
unequaled for style and fitting quality. Such as:
The Hampton The Sefton
The Yorke The Nassau
The Argyle The Kenmoore
The De Lancy The Herald
cause the nations of Europe haven’t uny
credit—why? Because the agencies that
established international credit won’t
give them credit —why ? Because they
don’t know whether they can puy theli
national debt —why? Because there Is
no guarantee that they are going to stop
maintaining great, armies and great
navies.
"Why can’t Europe stop? Because
America Isn’t doing it. America can’t
do it and will not do it until the rest
of the world does it. All the nations of
the world must do it together and they
can do it by all of them becoming mem
bers of the League of Nations of the
World."
He spoke for the league from the spir
itual viewpoint and closed his address
with the statement that he stands for
the league; that he will sit down with
the Senate, when elected, and that when
he sits down he wishes at least one vote
from Indiana for the leagie, the vote of
Thomas Taggart.
Miss Julia Landers, Democratic can
lldate for presidential elector-at-large;
Henry Spaan. Democratic candidate for
Representative of the Seventh congres
sional district, and Mr. Taggart spoke
before Mr. Cox arrived.
Mr. Taggart said In Introducing
Acqullla Jones, permanent chairman of
the meeting:
“I have visited all corners of the State
and, friends, I wish to say to you that I
have never seen the Democratic party
so thoroughly united, nor the Progres
sives and Independent Republicans so
thoroughly agreed with them as they
now are In support of the League of
Nations and In opposition to the Good
rich tax law.
“In my campaign for the senatorship
I have sought only to appeal for sup
port from a business standpoint, for
what I believe to be for the best welfare
of the people of this State.
“I have said nothing unkind about my
opponent, and regardless of the untruths
which have been uttered against me In
this campaign I want to say that so
many kind things have been said of
