COX ADVISES STATE
TO GRANT SUFFRAGE
Louisiana Legislature Told It
Has Duty to Perform.
VOTE IN FALL POSSIBLE
Political Conferences Are to Be
Postponed Until leaders Re
turn From San Francisco.
DAYTON". O., July 7. If the legis
lature of Louisiana acts In accord
with tha opinion of Governor James
M. Cox, democratic nominee for pres
ident, women will be enfranchised to
vote at the November election and
the democratic party may get the
credit for making universal suffrage
a fact.
In a telegram to Frank J. Looney,
chairman of the Louisiana state cen
tral committee, Governo Cox ex
pressed it as his opinion that the
Louisiana legislature owes it as a
duty to the democratic party to ratify
at once. Mr. Looney had telegraphed
the governor asking him to express
his views to the legislature on rati
fication of the amendment.
The governor's answer to Mr.
Looney follows:
"I have your telegram as chalrmaj.
of the democratic state central com
mittee of Louisiana on the subject of
the ratification of ' the suffrage
amendment by the general assembly.
I can only express my opinion. It is
that the legislature owes It as a duty
to the democratic party to ratify at
once."
In his official capacity as governor
of Ohio, the democratic candidate has
repeatedly placed himself on rec
ord as being in favor of giving the
vote to women. He has signed a num
ber of bills intended to enfranchise
women in this state and in a Bpecial
message to the legislature transmit
ting the federal amendment for rati
fication he urged favorable action.
Leaders Are Awaited.
It was stated today by those In
'close touch with the democratic pres
idential candidate that he contem
plated conducting his campaign
chiefly from Columbus, whera he will
necessarily have to be much of the
time in connection with his duties as
governor. It has been the practice
of the governor to come home each
Friday from Columbus and spend the
week end with his family and at his
newspaper office.
No political conferences of import
ance are expected until the party
leaders return from San Francisco.
The visit of Franklin D. Roosevelt,
the vice-presidential nominee, which
is expected Saturday, is not antici
pated to develop into anything more
than exchange of felicitations.
Mr. Roosevelt will stop here on his
way home from the convention. The
governor spent most of today at his
newspaper office receiving callers and
reading messages of congratulation.
Among them were felicitations from
all the candidates who were con
tenders for the honor that came to
the Ohio governor, Vice-I'res'.dent and
Mrs: Marshall, cabinet members, gov
ernors, political leaders of both
parties, representatives of labor, busi
ness men and personal friends.
One message from Franklin K.
Lane, ex-secretary of the interior.
said:
"I sincerely congratulate you and
the country. Do give us a campaign
that is constructive, that will chal
lenge the Interest and support of the
new voters. The people want to hear
a definite word as to home affairs as
well as foreign."
Homes Are First Thought.
Tonight the governor talked golf at
a dinner at the .Dayton Country club.
'There is an erroneous impression
that golf is a rich man's game. It is
not. A set of clubs doesn't cost
much," he said. He declared it en
couraged outdoor life and particular
ly country living.
"If I have one public hobby that is
more outstanding than any other, it
has been the preachment of 'more
homes.' You can preach patriotism to
a man and appeal to his sense of
duty, but you can't make the sort of
appeal to him that he gains from his
own reflections after he owns a home.
"He buys a lot, and. auite often.
borrows money to build a home; his
hopes are centered in the enterpr'se
and he w'orks for it and it becomes
his own particular interest in his gen
eral allotment on God's footstool.
"When he finally achieves his ob
jective and owns his own home, he
realizes it is his and that he is pro
letted in his ownership by his gov
ernment; that under the laws, he is
given the right to transfer what he
has earned to the next generation
and realizes that this generation, too,
will be protected.
"He gets a real object lesson of the
relation that exists between the gov
ernment." Swing of Names Liked.

"Cox and Roosevelt, that's catchy.
Isn't it?" commented the governor, as
he first learned who his associate on
the ticket would be from the Asso
ciated Press In his home at Trail's
End. The governor had left his
newspaper office in. the city before
the vice-presidential nomination was
made, and his office had forgotten to
telephone him the result.
Governor Cox was sitting in a re
clining chair in his library enjoying
his pipe and chatting with some
newspaper representatives when in
formed of Mr. Roosevelt's nomination.
He appeared well pleased with the
selection and at once dictated to tho
newspaper men the congratulatory

The governor admitted that he was
not intimately acquainted with Mr.
Roosevelt but declared him to be a
vigorous, upstanding, courageous and
progressive democrat. He commented
particularly upon two addresses made
by the vice-presidential candidate, one
before the national democratic com

other on Americanization in Dayton.

BUDGET OPINION GIVEN
ACTION AGAINST SCHOOL SU-
PERIXTEXDEXT DISMISSED.
Supreme Bench Holds County Court
Should Care for Mandatory Lev
ies Before Discretionary.
SALEM. Or., July 7. (Special.)
County courts in making their annual
budgets of taxes should take care of
mandatory levies in preference to
hose levies of a aiscretionary nature.
according to Justice C. A. Johns, who
n a supreme court opinion yesterday
dismissed the action of school dis
trict No. 24, of Marion county, to
compel A. M. Smith, county superin
tendent, to turn over to that district
certain funds raised in excess of the
per cent limitation law.
When opposition was voiced to the
Marion county court last December
fixing the school levy at J8.25 per
capita instead of $10 per capita as
provided by law, the county court
levied another tax sufficient to make
up the deficiency. Collection of the
atter tax was enjoined in the circuit
court here on the ground that the
amount raised was in excess of the 6
per cent limitation law.
School district No. 24 later brought
mandamus proceedings in the su
preme court -to compel Mr. Smith,
county superintendent, to apportion
to that district funds raised tiirough
the second levy of J1.75 per capita.
This suit was opposed by Mr. Smith
on the grounds that his authority was
confined to apportioning funds raised
for school purposes, and that he w
in no way connectea wun tne levying
or collection of the tax. His conten
tion was upheld by Justice Johns.
Justice Johns' opinion was con
curred in by other members of the
court.

SHANGHAI, July 6. Sir Beilby F.
Alston, British minister to China, has
reached this city on his way to Eng

absence. He is taking with him a
petition to the British government
from a score of leading Chinese com
mercial and student bodies, opposing
a renewal of the Anglo-Japanese
treaty.
The document says the conditions
which led to the negotiation of the
treaty no longer exist, and declares
the danger from Russia and Germany
has been removed. America, it as
serts, is the only power with strength
sufficient to endanger peace, and "it
is unthinkable that country would

Republican Chieftains of State Con

Result Not Doubted.
CHICAGO, July 7. Ohio republican
leaders who conferred today with
Will H. Hays, chairman of the repub
lican national committee, were re
ported to have disapproved of the
"front porch" campaign plan for Sen
ator Harding. They favored a "swing
around the circuit" for the repub
lican candidate, instead of the tas
sive campaign that has been advo
cated in some quarters.
Among, those who conferred with
Mr. Hays were Harry M. Daugherty,
who was Senator Harding's campaign
manager, and George H. Cook, chair
man of the Ohio republican state com
mittee. A. T. Hert, national commit
teeman from Kentucky, and I. A. Cas
well, Minnesota committeeman, also
took up the situation in their states.
"We haven't Ihe slightest apprehen

MARION, O., July 7. After several
weeks spent in preliminary prepara

actual writing; of hi3 speech to be
delivered on July 22, accepting the
republican presidential nomination.
He expects to complete it in about 10
days, during- .vhich time he plans to
see but few visitors.
Johnson Stand Pleases.
The announcement made by Senator
Johnson of California, that he would
support the republican ticket, greatly
pleased Senator Harding when in
formed of it today. The statement
did not come as a surprise, however.
"I am glad Senator Johnson is go
ing to give the ticket his support,"
the republican nominee said. "I am
glad to kni'W of everybody's support,"
he added, "and I would much rather
have support en the grounds that our
platform is appealing than on the
grounds of interest in the nominees."
Senator Harding added that
throughout, the campaign he intended
to emphasize "interest in party."
Campaign Fad Predicted.
"It's going to be a fad in the cam
paign," said the Ohio senator.
Attention was called to statements
attributed to Governor Cox, demo
cratic presidential nominee, that he
planned an intensive campaign with
an extended speaking tour through
the country.
"I should imagine he would but that
does not change my plans any," Sena
tor Harding said.
The senator today received a letter
from Hulbu:-t Tutt, editor of the Cin
cinnati Times-Star, pledging to him
the suppo.-t of that publication as
well as the "Tuft family."
"It gratif-!s mo very greatly to
know that I have the best wishes of

PEACE IN EAST . URGED
EDITOR ADVISES FJUEXDLY
REJLATIONS WITH JAl'AX.
Future or China Depends on Cor
dial Relations Between U. S.
and Japanese, Is View.
SEATTLE, Wash., July 7. Peaceful
development of the orient, especially
in China, depends largely on the fu
lure relations ot America with Japan
and a cordial agreement should be
worked out between the two coun
tries, according to Charles Bronson
Rea, owner and editor of the Far
Eastern Review of Shanghai, who
sailed from Seattle for the orient to
day.
Mr. Rea, who was a special ad
viser to the Chinese delegation at the
conference, says China is in need of
tremendous loans to reorganize her
government and to promote her in
dustries.
"America and Japan are the only
two world powers able to provide the
necessary funds and should be on
friendly terms, if for that purpose
alone," said Mr. Rea. "While the ter
ritorial ambitions of Japan are hold
ing world attention, they are but a
natural sequence of "her growth in
population and some cognizance of
this fact should be taken. She must
have some place for her surplus popu
lation and the peaceful penetration of
Manchuria and Mongolia seems to be
her present objective."

WATER FRONT CASE UP
EQUITY IS SOUGHT IN liAXI
VALUED ABOVE $1,000,000.
Arguments Before Supreme Court
Assert Plaintiffs Are Heirs
of Late Henry Ploch.
SALEM, Or., July 7. (Special.)
Arguments were heard by the
supreme court today in the action
brought by Virginia Bailey et al.
to recover from the Oregon-Washing
ton Railway & Navigation company,
New York Trust company and Farm
ers' Loan & Trust company, equity in
lands located on Portland's water
front which are said to be valued
at more than $1,000,000.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs argued
before the court that Henry Ploch
settled on the lands involved in the
suit on November 1, 1852, under the
provisions of the federal statutes
making it possible to take up dona
tion land claims. He erected a cabin,
according to the plaintiffs, made other
improvements and continued to reside
on the land until his death on
March 1. 1853.
Because of the severe winter of
1852 the land was not surveyed, al
though plaintiffs alleged that Mr.
Ploch otherwise complied with the
donation land claim laws.
Following Mr. Ploch's death, it is
alleged that Elizabeth Thomas en
tered upon and fraudulently made
claim to the land. Subsequently
title to the property passed into the
hands of its present owners. Plain
tiffs allege that they are descend
ants of Mr. Ploch and that because
of the latter's residence on the lands
he established an equity in the prop
erty which should entitle them to
remuneration.
The action originally was filed in
the circuit court of Multnomah
county, but was dismissed on de
murrer to the complaint filed by the
defendants. It was charged in the
demurrer that the facts contained
In the complaint were not sufficient
to constitute a cause of action, and
that the statute of limitation had
run against institution of the suit.

Ohio and Franklin 15. Roosevelt of
New York, were scrambling today
for train accommodations homeward.

later when the party machinery is or
ganized. The assistant secretary In
tends to resign from the navy depart
ment as soon as he can clear up his
desk and will spend 10 days or so in
.Washington for that purpose.
Harmony Elates Leaders.
Democratic leaders were elated
over the spirit of harmony which
marked the last hours of the conven
tion. There had been good feeling
and tolerance shown throughout the
long struggle to reach a presidential
nomination, it was said, but in the
nomination of Mr. Roosevelt by ac
clamation following withdrawal of all
other candidates, these leaders saw
evidence of differences buried and a
determination to work hard for vic
tory. It was generally agreed that the
convention had been a great success.
If noise and unflagging display of
enthusiasm were a guage of that suc
cess, there was ample ground for
their view. Up to the last the dele
gates were ready to cheer or to dem
onstrate at every opportunity. In
a way the scene Vesterday when Mr.
Roosevelt was nominated rivaled that
of the break up early in the morn
ing of the McAdoo-Cox deadlock and
the nomination of Governor Cox.
Westerner Gets Klrst Move.
Nominating speeches were again
the order of the day when the con

and there was evidence that a strong
movement was on to name a man

Just before that, however, a final
demonstration had followed the read

in him. For the last time the dele

Tammany Aarrees With Cox.
The word got about that Governor
Cox had thrown his influence to the
assistant secretary of the navy and
that Tammany objections to nil
nomination had been sunk In the de
sire for party harmony.
A moment later Chairman Robineon
recognized Governor Smith of. New
York, who made his way to the
platform amid cheers and with the
band working hard on "The Side
walks of New York," made-famous in
the convention by the demonstration
in which it played an important part
in the first days of the gathering.
A sweeping indorsejnent of Mr.
Roosevelt's candidacy by Governor
Smith set the ball rolling. As speaker
after speaker reappeared to with
draw opposing candidates and second
the Roosevelt nomination, a wave of
cheering swept through the hall. The
end of the convention was at hand
and when former Governor Francis
of Missouri signalized withdrawal of
his name by moving suspension of
rules and nomination of the New
Yorker by acclamation, the shout of
"aye" that ratified his action shook
the roof of the massive civic audi
torium for the last time.

DORMITORY BIDS OPENED
Cost of Building for Feeble-Minded
Kxceeds Kxpectations.
SALEM. Or., July " 7. (Special.)
Rids for the construction of a new
dormitory at the state home for the
feeble-minded were opened by the
board of control here today. Six bids
were received, as follows: A. J. An

647; Peterson. Waale. $49,796; Steb
binger Bros., $41,850; V. Van Fallen,
$43,420; John Almeter, $39,374.
Because the lowest bid received was
only slightly less than the $40,000 au
thorized at the 1920 session of the leg
islature for the construction of the
'building, and docs nut include the
RACK
HON!
heating and plumbing, which. It is
estimated, will cost in the neighbor
hood of $7000, several features of the
proposed structure will be eliminated
for the present.
These eliminations will be outlined
by W. C. Knighton, architect, and re
vised bids will be sought from Mr.
Almeter and Mr. Engstrom, the two
lowest, bidders. The contract probably
'ill be awarded later in the week.
Construction of this dormitory was
made necessary under a bill passed by
the last legislature providing for ad
mission of children under 5 years of
age. Heretofore only children, over
that age have been committed to the
institution.

False Claims.
A7E hope there is no Mother who thinks she can treat her sick bahy without
calling in a Physician, or with remedies that she uses for herself.
Most Mothers know that Baby requires remedies especially prepared for
babies, yet there are some who think that what is good enough for them is good
enough for Baby, and it is to these . Mothers we appeal to give nothing to their
babies that is not specially prepared for babies or recommended by their Physician.
False claims may kill, but false claims can never restore your child.
Por over thirty years Fletcher's Castoria has been aiding in the reduction
of the deaths among infants as Mothers have become more and more acquainted
with it. Always keep it in the house.

Children
Mothers Must Use Care.
Why do we so often caU your attention to imitations of Fletcher's
Castoria? Because it is a baby's medicine and imitations are always
dangerous, particularly imitations of a remedy for infants.
Your druggist may not keep an imitation but they are to be f ouna
on drug-store shelves. Reliable druggists think only of the welfare
of their customers. The other kind only of the greater profit to be
made on imitations.
Your own judgment tells you that Fletcher's Castoria having for
over thirty years at great expense held up its reputation, must jeal
ously guard it. Then, it follows that this company must use the very
best of material. Must employ experts in the selection of the herbs.
Must retain skilled chemists in its manufacture.
Your same good judgment must teU you that these irresponsible
imitators are trading on your credulity and the reputation built up
by Mr. Fletcher, during all these years, for his Castoria.
