Harding; was "Uncle Warren" for the
rest of the day.
Harding drove SO miles from Marion,
arriving Just In time to sit down ,to a
big fried chicken dinner with all the
country trlmmlnjrs. Heads were bowed
for. a rninute while a parson from a
nearby village aalB grace. Then every

An rirlsh revolution against Great

candidate said, would not come under
the jurisdiction of the league and the
United Htates would be under no ob

British.
Declaring there can be no "abiding

or Imperialistic governments,' Governor
Cox ' expressed the belief that Xbtfore

Then he said the United States, along
with the other members of the League

Temporary Swing Toward Harding
Reacts Toward Cox When Sen-

Breckenridge Long, Democratic
Candidate for United States
Senator, Is Predicted Winner.
By David Lawrence
(C'opyriihtetl. 1920, t7 The Joarnali
St. Louis. Mo., Oct. ,2. Missouri
is a doubtful state. Ordinarily Dem
ocratic, the Republicans are cock
sure they can win It, but Governor
Cox has a better chance to keep Mis
souri in the Democratic column than
most people imagine.
Republican hopes are based largely on
dissensions within the ranks of the Dcm
ecrats, the rift between the pro-league
Wilson forces and the anti-league ele
ments behind ' Senator Reed. But the
senator from Missouri hasn't bolted the
ticket. Being a "pVactlcal politician, he
and his friends are not planning to sup
port the Republican ticket. Just now
the Ifansas City Star is waging a battle
against the Kansas City bosses who
have been part and parcel of the Reed
movement. On the other hand, the
Kansas City Post has been making
fight for the League of Nations. Sena
tor Harding is due to speak In Kansas
City soon and Governor Cox is cam
paigning in Missouri this week.
The Republicans have induced Hard
ing to come to Kansas City in an effort
to swing the western end of Missouri,
but the sources of the Cox strength
are manifold.
LOOKS DEMOCRATIC TODAY
Three weeks ago the drift toward the
Republican presidential ticket was such
as to make the Democratic leaders nerv
ous, but they are comment toaay it
will not be sufficient to overcome the
normaj Democratic majority. It is not'
at. all unlikely, too. that Breckenridge

Senator Spencer, the Republican can
didate, has -been in! a ruUier embarrass-
ins position trying-! to make his orleinal
trieuailness to Ui ieag-ue of Nations
bear the burden of Senator Hardlmr's
announced unfriendliness. Locally there 1
are no disturbing factors In respect to
the governorship to cause the rank and
file to take out their troubles on the
Democratic national ticket. Moreover,
while the 'Republicans have made much'
fuss about purifying - their ranks and
have done a lot ot resolving and de
nouncing as a result of the precon
vention scandal on delegates In which
Jacob Babler, national committeeman.
was involved, the said Babler remains
national committeeman. 'this episode
has diminished the magnetizing influ
ence of tlie Republican political party
in Missouri. New blood has been in
troduced in the Republican organization,
and the good Republicans of the state
resent the bad repute which some of Uie
older crowd give to Missouri in tha
purchase of Lowden delegates,
in other words, the factional troubles
in each of the two big parties are about
at a standoff. Tliere will be tome loss
of the Irish and anti-League of Nations
lollowers of Senator Reed, but not
enough to do serious damage. '
IRELAND ICES8 8ET1MET
The return toward Cox set in the mo
ment Harding announced publicly that
he would not do anything officially about
the freedom of Ireland if he were elect
ed president, white Cox has pledged him
self to bring the Irish 'qustiou to the
attention of ail the nations of the world
officially through the medium of the
League of Nations. The Ohio governor
has also insisted that Article X will pro
tect the territorial integrity and po
litical independence of Ireland as against
external aggressiveness just as much
as any other member of the league and
that the Irish would some day be thank
ful for Article X. This is beginning to
take hold.
Conservative observers and sympathiz
ers with Republicanism in Kansas City
told the writer they did not share the
confidence of the Republican leaders ln
their prediction of Republican success
in Missouri. All tbey could say waa
that Missouri is a doubtful state and
Harding has good chance to carry it if
the election develops into a Republican
landslide. Governor Cox tightened his
line in Missouri by his personal visit. He
holds the state as matters stand today.
The next two articles will summarize
the political situation west of the Mis
sissippi as observed by the writer in the
last five weeks and will be followed-by
a state to state canvass of conditions
east of the Mississippi.

Idaho Senator Can't Endure Hard
ing's Double Crossing, Says
Representative Goodwin.
Washington, Oct. 2. Alarm was
expressed in Republican circles to
day when it became definitely knowa
that Senator William E. ' Borah, Ir
reconcilable opponent of the League
of Nations, has withdrawn his active
support of Senator Harding. Repub
lican presidential nominee. The
Idaho senator has notified the Re
publican national committee that he
will make no more speeches in the
presidential campaign.
Jt has been reported that Senator
Hiram Johnson, another irreconcilable,
will follow Borah's lead.
Commenting on the action of Senator
Borah, Representative William Goodwin
of Arkansas said:
'A man of Senator Borah's intellec
tual honesty could no longer tolerate
the double crossing and duplicity of the
Republican presidential candidate and
the platform," said Goodwin.
"The' Lord may know Senator Hard
ing's views on the League of , Nations
if he has any, but no honest man who
yearns for the truth can unscramble his
jumble of ambiguous expressions,
"Borah is at least a conservative pro
gressive but Mark Hanna, in his palmi
est days, never held such gilt-edge first
mortgage bonds on the Republican party
as the reactionaries such as the Lodges
and Penroses hold today
"The Idaho senator refuses to be led
around by the nose into the camp of
the rhllletines. His pride and independ
ence should be applauded by millioua of
other Republicans who should make
haste to follow .suit"

STORT OF B&EAK TOLD t
Robert Fletcher, last witness for th
state, testified that Floyd Stoop and
Irvin Henderson had voluntarily made
the statement before the grand Jury that.
in planning; the break, they had agreed
that they would "shoot their way out if
necessary."
Jacob Marion, deputy sheriff, who had
taken the meal to the prisoners, having
had Henderson accompany him down
town for the food, testified that .'after
he had unlocked the cage door ;nside the
jail and allowed the prisoners out to
get- their food Stoop-said something to
him and Rathle jumped on his back.
"Hart drew a gun and put me in the
cage with Stoop," he said, "and Stoop
fought with me to. keep me from reach

was walking up and down the Jail in

Six months ago the board advertised

Portland, San Francisco and Tacoma.
The appraised value was approximately
$12,000,000.
