Cox wilt be elected, o wh Dot study their records? The much-controversed question ol prohibition scema to bo the one que ttuu that id attractiiiK much atten tion, on which the record of each candidate la very much miHHtated Senator Harding Is being put fori!: as a great dry and the future savior of the prohibition amendment, and Gov. Cox as king of the wets. Senator Harding, In the U. S. seii ate, Aug. 1, 1917, mado the follow lag remarks on prohibition: "Tbo thought 1 have In mind, Mr. Presi dent, is the elimination of this un ending prohibition contest In ttu halls of congress. At the same tim . 1 am in sympathy with the opposi tion to the resolution about the un fairness of adopting a ft'dt-ral amend ment under the provisions of the constitution on a question relating to personal liberty, and if there were any other method of submitting an amendment I should be very glad to employ It. I am not a prohibitionist, Mr. President, and never have pre tended to be. 1 do clulm to be a temperance man. I do not approach this question from a moral view point, because I am unable to aee It as a great moral question. 1 do think It unwise. Imprudent and Inconsist ent to force the Issue at this time. I do not think a prohibition amend ment will be effective, Mr. President. You cannot make any law stronger than the public sentiment which see1 to Its enforcement." Upon further examination of Sena tor Harding's prohibition record 11 has been discovered that he voted a cat ust prohibition In the District ol Columbia. Ho voted against prohi bition In Porto Hlco, cast several votes against wartime prohibition and spoke at length against it. In August, 1917, ho supported the Iteed amendment, which provided thai congress should have no power to en foire the eighteenth amendment un til It had made provisions for com pensating liquor manufacturers an dealers for losses sustained by them through the closing of their busi ness. Aaron 8. Watklns, prohibition president Inl nominee, declares that he Is unable to And a single Instance In which the senator voted whole heartedly1 for prohibition, and sayt lie voted 30 times with the wets and thnt he was absent or dodged 16? rollcalls or quorum calls. If you call Henulor Harding a dry, 1 am from "Mlr-Eiiry." Next we will discuss the record of Oov. Cox with the same decree nl fairness that nccotepanled th thoughts of the writer thiotigh Hard lug's record, llov. Cx made refer ence to the question In his messag to the Ohio general assembly on Jan. 13, 1!19. when he linked to b given the power of removing local officials who were delinquent In en forcing the law, and declared that enforcement was n rightful concern of the state, as well hs of local offi cials. Plscusxing the natlonnl amend ment, he said: "There is no conflict between In tent and phrase. The electorate ha Issued the mandate that intoxicating liquors as a beverage shall not b manufactured for sale or sold, anil the responsibility of providing tin means and methods of law enforce ment is with the hgitduture. Tin amendment is not the expression of s caprice. The subject in question hat- been persistent hs an Ishuo for sev eral years. Nothing can be men subversive of the public interest than Indifference to or defiance of the or ganlc law of (he slate. It has bee) suggested that the enforcement ol the prohibition law be left to th communities, and that the state con tent itself with the thought that locai officials are sufficiently vigilant ami the public Interests w 111 be safe guarded. It Is respectfully urged up on you to give place to no sucli sophistry. The constitution has served throughout the years broai! police powers to the state. I rue they have been delegated, but tin mere assignment dots not lu th least degree reduce the res punst till Itv of the state. Reduced to plain terms, therefore, the enforcement of the law should be In the first In stance with the public officials In tin communities, but a Vigilant eye should be with the slate, and powe of removal from office should b given the governor in case of delin quency." In his speech of acceptance Gov Cox said: "The public official who fallfl to enforce the law Is an enemy both to the constitution and to the American principle of major.'? rule." As governor of Ohio he gave that ntate her first dry Sunday. As LETTER FROM MRS. BRUCE Tells Remarkable Story of Sickness and Recovery. Brookaburg, Ind.

In the large cities of Cleveland and Cincinnati the weta at first resisted the law, but a threat of Gov. Cox to send the atate militia to enforce the law waa sufficient and they obeyed It. Does It look reasonable that the people of a dry state such as Ohio would elect a wet governor for the third time? They have elected Cox three times. SQUARE DEAL.
