"Seldom in the history of our cnuntrv

"I call upon the Democratic party'
to answer the charge that Its manage- i
tncntof domestic nffairs had brought us'
to the brink of on imlinrris! itji in '

as it would hae been to Washington,
Lincoln and Itonsevelt.
Constructive PuL'ry Outlined
"I have spent this campaign in set
ting forth a ronstni" five Republican
policy. I have demanded the restora
tion of the constitutional government
of a representative democracy which
shall represent the will of the people
flowing up from the people, rather than
the will of one-man government de
scending toward the people.
"I have stood for more business in
government and less government in
business. I have demanded a reorgani
zation of administrative government fo
that it shall become a source of pride
to the American spirit of elfidency nnd
will remove the drain from the tax
payers. "I have set forth a plan tor the con
servation of our human resources nnd
one for the development of our material
resources. I have suggested means for
the protection of motherhood and child

to set before th American pople, ,jn.
corely nnd clenrlv, a definite polic for
the administration of the I'mted States
to bring our people out of the jungle of

to serve by doing what 1 could to har-

A crowd of several thousand thronged

WHITES FIGURES GIVE '
bll't MARGIN TO COX
New York, Oct 25 George White,
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, in n statement yesterday
forecasting the result of the election,
predicted that Cox and Roosevelt will
have 250 electoral votes, "ns good as
counted," the Republicans 1G1, nnd
that the Democrats will win n majority
of the remaining 111.
"Governor Cox and Mr. Roosevelt,"
he said, "will huve 222 electoral votes
east of the Missouri river and thirty
four west of the Missouri river, a total
of 250 as good as counted. This is
within ten of the number necessary to
elect. The Republicans hove 104which
I regard as good as counted for them.
This leaves 111 votes In contest. In
the decided swing now in progress
toward the Democratic ticket we will
carry the majority of this 111, a very
comfortable victory, indeed."

Illinois Still for Harding
In Illinois the prospects of electing
Lewis governor hns stiffened up the
Democrats. And the Republican con-
fusion and factionalism have somen ha
weakened Harding. A good observer
here thinks that Harding's majority :
Illinois will he 100.000 or so les than
it once looked as if it would he. Hut
and this is tup important point in nil
this chance. Hardiue's Illinois mnjoritv
will still be large. No otic estimates it
at less than 150.000.

Story of Lost Opportunity
The story of the Lcague-of-Nations
Issue so far as the Democracy is con
cerned is a story of lost opportunities.
To present such nn issue required iutel
from the outset, ine i;cmocrauc cam
paign had inne of these things; it only
discocrcd the possibilities of the league
ns nn IsMie three weeks alto.
To have made the most of the league
as an issue tue ucmocrauc rumnunic
should have done one of two things. He
should have loiiowed nryan nnu seized
U rt nLiH.lnnnil DAntililtnfln vul t inn In

secondly he should hnvc followed Wll-
son nasslonatelv. reliciouslv. Co.x had
not the courage or understanding to do
either of these things. He hovered be
tween Lodge nnd Wilson and became
that most futile of things political, a
mild reservutlonist. There has been no
solemn lefercndum on the lengue, more's
the pity.
Well, then Uie Democrats in their
last ffforts hare done something, but not
enough. They have saved some doubtful
states, pci haps. They have cut down
Harding's possible majority in others.
Thev have stopped the tidal wave of
which there ore signs in the East and
kept it from flowing west of IluHalo.
As in 1010 the Kast is going to be
more Republican than tho West and
Middle West, but with this difference:
Tne West and Middle West this time
are going to be Refiubllcan.
WOULD RESTORE THOMPSON
Petition Seeks to Return Old Cen
tral High Preoldent
Argument in the suit for nn alterna
tive wilt of mnndnmus to compel the
Hoard of Education to relnstnto Dr.
Robert Kl'is Thompson as president of
the Central High School, or show why
it should not, will be heard before
Judges Shoemaker and Patterson in
Common Pleas Court No. 1 today.
Dr. Thompson was retired by the
Hoard of Education under provisions
of the state retirement art, nnd Dr.
John Louis Honey was appointed in
his placp pro tempore.
It is contended in the euit brought by
Hyron A. Mlluer, attorney for Dr.
Thompson, that his retirement Is un
constitutional nnd comes under the head
of class legislation, Inasmuch as the act
nffects but twelve out of the 25S7 school
districts in the stnto. Ho nlso con
tends that the State Retirement Hoard
has never retired Dr. Thompson, and
that therefore the Hoard of Education
acted without proper authority in re
tiring him.
The Hoard of Education will be rep
resented by Theodore F. Jenkins nnd
Edward Merchant. It Is believed that
tht court will make unusual efforts to
render a prompt decision in the case.

EXPERTS COMPILING DATA
Hy the Associated Tress
London, Oct. 25. Premier Lloyd
George nnd members of the government
this morning conferred with government
experts concerning a new set of figures
for wages of the coal miners and pro
duction in the coal Industry. Later the
government leaders and representative1!
of the miners met and continued the
negotiations begun Sundny for o settle
ment of the miners' strike.
It is believed an arrangement will
bo reached by which each side can at
least claim It has not yielded Its main
contention. It Is asserted Premier
Lloyd George will submit proposals
which he hopes will make an Increased
output of coal no certain that it will
he possible to grant Immediately the
Increase of wages demanded by the coal
diggers. Miners' leaders arc quoted as
saying they are confident the govern
ment will before long find n way to con
cede the miners' claims.
Nevvsnaners of this city continue
hopeful, for the most part, and express j
relief as the national union railway,
men decided to defer calling n strike.
Such action, it is understood, will not
be taken before Wednesday, Tho labor
conference, which was called hy tho
parliamentary committee of the Trades
Union Congress, will meet on Wcducs-1
day and there are indications that n
railway strike, even if eventually called,
may bo rather half-hearted. Many
messages from local branches arc said
to have been received at tho headquar
ters of tho union, expressing hostility
to the idea of a strike.
It is said that until a ballot of the
workers has been taken the attitude of
J. II. Thomas, secretary of the Nationnl
Union of Railway Mru, will certainly
influence a large number of the mem
bers. In n speech delivered Sunday,
Mr. Thomas, while expressing sympathy
for the miners, warned ids audience of
the dangers of n strike, which he said he
realized "might lead to the downfall of
all of us." He declared lie wnB firm In
his determination not to lead such a
strike.
