George M. Brown
BY
(Br United Newt)
New York, Oct. 2. When Gover
nor Cox recently declared that if
the same question relative to pro
hibition were put to himself and
Senator Harding simultaneously he
would give a direct answer, Daniel
A. Poling, associate president of the
Christian Endeavor, , -acted on the
suggestion. He sent a wire to both
candidates, asking:
"If elected president will you use your
official powers to prevent the weakening
of prohibition laws now in effect and
your appointive power for their enforce
ment?" To which Cox wired in reply, in part,
as follows :
"I have met all questions by pointing
to my record of law enforcement in Ohio
with the pledge that my oath of office
as president will not be violated. I
recognise the eighteenth amendment as
a definite part of the constitution and
laws enacted thereunder will be observed
and enforced."
Mr. Poling declared that his telegram
to Harding had not as yet been replied
fo, but that Harding had written him on
September 23 in reply to a letter on the
same subject, so he made public this
part:
"This is a representative government
rota try the majority as expressed at the
poiis or h. the laws formulated by elected
represaiitaUves and it is not within the
Tight t any officer of that government
to ligntly set aside the will of our people
as mo expressed. But I may say that I
am opposed to the reeatablishment of the
traffio In intoxicating liquors and will
use whatever influence or power I pos
sess to prevent such reestablishmenC I
have no further statement to make on
this question."

breaking one. There will be $975 in
prises. One street for the length of a
block will be devoted to the poultry ex
hibit, and two other blocks will con
tain booths of the products of Wasco

Instead of the old system of giving
concessions to a carnival company to
provide amusements for the week, the
fair association has signed a contract
with a theatrical stock company and
It will give a series of matinee and eve
ning performances In a large tent that it
being erected.
Following three days of hot weather.
The Dalles was hit by a terrific rain
and Wind storm Thuriula nlvht a Km,,
o'clock. The storm swept down on the
city irotn the west, and the wind and
rain played havoc with the flags and
bunting hung in decorations for the
county fair. At times the rainfall as
sumed the proportions of a cloudburst.
