Dayton, Ohio, July 31. If thorn Is any doubt as to Gov. Oox'n llrm iipproval of the League of Nations covenant in the shape of which Presi- dent Wilson brought It back from France, It runy le dispelled by the merles of vigorous, sometimes vicious, editorials which uppeured through a period of almost a year in the Demo- cratic Presidential nominee's news- paper, the Dayton cirn. These editorials, presented herewith In form as full as space will permit, reveal forcibly the extent in which Gov. Cox. with his newspapers, th Springfield (Ohio) Neiei, in addition to the Dayton Yews, championed the tight of President Wilson for the rutin ration without of the Versailles treaty with the League of Nations covenant by the Senate. They are of the utmost interest to- day, since there seems to be a dis- position on the part of the Democratic campaign managers to submerge the Ieague of Nations Issue for some- thing more popular. How, In view of these editorials and the recent state- ment of President Wilson that he and the nominee are \absolutely as one\ on the league of Nations. Oov. Cox Is going to be able to shift the league Issue to a secondary position Is quite a considerable question, of which much is likely to be heard In coming months. I.raanr Accepted an Iaane. Gov Cox. of course, did not write the editorials himself. But they were prepared in his office, by a writer or writers in his employ, and they must be 'aken to represent his position. They continued over a long period of time, thereby becoming a habitual pol-Ic- for which Oov. Cox, who kept In more or less close personal touch with his publications, becomes fully responsible. The editorials accept the league of Nations as the 1920 campaign Issue, so stating specifically In a bombastic\ attack on Senator Liodge, at whose much of the fire is con-ten- t rated. They are determined edi- torials, all of them, to which publlo sttention may now be properly di- rected as important In the campaign.

The White House sheep will never fall into Republican hands. Before next March 4, when, ac- cording to all indications, Sena- tor Warren G.

Just like farmers do when they get ready to leave the farm, President Wilson some time next fall will hold a public auction to dispose of his 49 fleecy pets. The proceeds will go to churity. ' Of course White House of- ficials do not admit that the flock is being sold to keep it from go- ing to They say it was brought to the White House as an example of wartime con- servation and production. Now that the war is over they say there is r.o longer need for keep- ing it, but the fact remains that the war has been over more than a year.

July 31 Instead ot .aiting until August 27 to Inaugu- rate the Democratic, campaigns in Illi- nois and Indiana, the Cox managers have decided that they have so much to do In those two States if they hope for success that the date has been moved up more than two weeks. Senator Hitchcock (Neb.) will go west soon to start the right for the election of Cox In the middle West, arriving there about August \3. Mr. Hitchcock, by the way, Is to have a lot to do with the Cox campaign. Naturally no love Is lost between Sen- ator Hitchcock and the Administra- tion, but the Senator and Gov. Cox have always been close friends. Sen- ator Hitchcock prcfcably knows more about how the Democratic nominee feels toward President Wilson and Ihe President's \paramount issue\ of the League of Nations than does any other man in the party. For the last few weeks Senator Hitch- cock has been resting at Atlantic City preparatory to taking an exceedingly active part In the Cox campaign. He will arrive in Washington to morrow, passing Monday here, and then probably will go to see Oov. Cox. being present hen the Governor's speech of accept' ancc is delivered at Dayton next Satur- day. Final conferences between Sena- tor Hitchcock and the Coventor are scheduled for Sunday and the Senator will be on the field starting the battle for his party's choice the next day. It was to Senator Hitchcock last Jan- uary that Oov. Cox confided his vlewa on the League of Nations. It Is known, according to close pergonal friends and advisers of Oov. Cox, that these views have not been changed. On that occasion the Governor told Senator Hitchcock that he favored the League of Nations Man \without nullifying reservations. Not even to the Nebraska Senator did he confide what he considered proper reservations, and he did not specify then, or at any other time, what particular reservation out of the very many of them he considered a nullifying reserva- tion. This knowledge has been held by sev- eral prominent Democrats, and they confidently expect that the Governor's restatement of his attitude in his speech of acceptance will not go beyond Oils, but that his discussion of the league Issue will be kept In generalities aa far a possible. Aa haa been stated In these despatchee, rile Cox crowd is anxious to forget all about the league Issue as eoon as It is possible to do so safely and without too abruptly laying the chill hand of death cn the pet project of the White House und thereby stepping on the sensitive toes of the element that follows Presi- dent Wilson blindly In bis demand for the league covenant aa he wrote It.

The war bur- den of taxes which Is laying a heavy band on industry must be lifted as quickly as possible in seeking a stabil- ized peace, Senator Warren G.

Many delegations have marched past the Senators residence and h\ndreds of Republicans have gathered In the last few weekB under the generous maples which shade hlH lawn. Hut those were the visits of admirers who wanted to see Warren Harding. The occasion y had all the trim mings of a real campaign rally. The Senator was ready with his speech pre-- l pared and the visitors talked Hardlug and Coolldge. There were about 600 i employees from Mansfield's tin plate and other big mills. Shelby sent along a few hundred visitors ; farmers drove In with their big touring cars crowded and hundreds of M.irion citizens walked out Mount Vernon avenue to see the cam- paign off.
