Again thrugtlng at the foreign policy
of the Wilson administration! Senator

Oklahoma, tonight that while ithe
American government was beguiling
them with idealistic notions of a new
social era the other nations bad

have "'taken very seriously" the 'self
abnegating :ims which the Washing
ton government has been proclaiming. '
the senator assailed again the league
"i nations and said he wanted no vot
er to be in doubt about his determina
tion to stay out of the covenant.
Senator Harding's night speech, last
of his mid-western trip, was delivered
at the stute fair grounds. Earlier, he
hud made several rear platform
speeches on his way across Kansas
and ( iklahoma.
Cheering crowds greeted the nomi
nee at all of his stops and at (ikla
homa City his train was met by a
throng which packed thr.. streets for
more than a block.
BILLS OLD LIE."
At Ponca n. i.klu.. when a farm
er handed up a printed circular quot
ing him as advocating dollar wheal,
the candidate characterized the state
ment as a "mis Table, silly old lie" and
crumpling up the paper, tossed it back
into the crowd He said the stor
started from his having remarked In
th, senate DtWe that he could remem
ber when m normal times dollar wheat
was very desirable.
Why if you wanted to rfr bacu
to Uryan's day, lie contlr.ied while
the crowd yelled again, "you would
have shouted our heads off to yet a
dollar a bushel- Hut that does not
apply now."

Praising American genius aud enter
prise in its development of American
petroleum, resources, the senator
termed ( 'Inahoma City "as the World's

"But the star of petroleum's em-i

fields to newly opened territory." he
continued. "New fields must be op
ened and before many years we will be
compelled to draw upon other coun
tries. 'e must turn again now, after an!
excursion of some eight years into the
realm of lofty and no doubt most en
nobling reason to a national consider

to see this son of a great sire shame

of respect for the memory of his illus

LODGE CALLED CONSPIRATOR
.Blasts at the "senatorial oligarchy";
were continuous in the governor s tour.
He reiterated charges that Senator
Lodge was "the basest conspirator in
all history" and urgod defeat of sen

Any man who signed the round
robin against the most humane instru

place iu the senate," he said, referring
to us signature by Senator Watson,

said Senator Watson was a member of

of his Indiana audiences to vote for
Tom Taggart, Democratic senatorial
