Orrville, Ohio,. Aug. 81. -Another
spirited attack on the "senate oligar

In an .address replying to that deliver
ed recently by Senator Harding, In
which Mr. Harding : commended the
senate as a forum of popular govrn-
ment.
, "Th republican candidate," said
Governor Cox, "has devoted a front
porch session to the defense of th
United States senate. With character
istic reactionary isolation from the
current of pulblic thought he fails to
distinguish between the United States
senate as an institution and the lost of
united States senators who have taken
cAarge of an important part of the
government, w
"It Is our contention that a group of
men have formed a domineering arro
gant, oligarchy in the senate and that
they have deliberately interferrsd with
tne welfare of the world, delayed re
adjustment In this country, all to the
distinct injury and disadvantage of the
people."
To Annex Preflkletacy.
That the republican senate proun
was trying to "annex the presidency
also, was asserted by Governor Cox,
who stopped here en route to Canton,
Ohio, where -he was to speak tonight.
'The feeling- against, the senate.'1
Governor Cox declared, "grows specif
ically out of the abuses by the oligar
chy. Prompted by its successes in ob
structing tactics it has moved into an
entirely new undertaking and its seeks
now to annex the presidency."?
Governor Cox also charged that "the
greedy Interests which are making the
contributions have been In notorious
consort with the senatorial oligarchy"
and again stressed the necessity for the
league of nations.
Senator Harding, In his address de
fending the senate. Governor Cox de
clared, "stripped his discussions of the
personal equation and elaborated on
the' wisdom of the fathers in creating
two parts of the. legislative branch of
government, the senate and the
house." i

would "resent the attempt now being
made to turn the senate- and file presi
dency into a single unit."
"It presidential . responsibility. Is to
be shared, It will be with the council
ors of the leader," said Governor Cox.
"He owes his nomination to tltem. His
gratitude Is naturally to them. There
is scarcely a day that some member

him. The public prints announced not
