In this connection Senator Pittman says: - They, speaking of the people of this country, can all get together now, because Cox has come out for the covenant of the league with reservations.' He says'publicly that he will sit down with the senate and obtain the ratification of the treaty embracing the league.. With this information coming fresh from the Democratic headquarters we are prone to ask if Governor Cox, like thousands of other Democrats, has joined .the ranks of the. Republicans.

Senator Lenroot stated that President Wilson has been president, the senate, and the house, and had done all the thinkof ing of the Democratic member . . both bodies. The senator stated that there were many problems that will have to be solved by the new adminlstra-tioone of which is to get thecoun-tr- y back on a sound businesslike basis. He declared that to run the business of the government was a business proposition. The speaker discussed to some extent the high cost of living, and declared that the government had failed to be of any material Assistance to the people in this regard, notwithstanding laws had been passed that would "have proved helpful had they been enforced. He then pointed out inOf how profiteers had carstances ried on during the war without having been interrupted by the department of justice. Mr. Lenroot stated that there was a shortage of practically every commodity, and declared that the greatest need of the hour was production. He said that the people of America cannot hope to enjoy a reduction In the cost of living unless there is greater producion of the necessities of life. To this endhe said the farmers should be given encouragement so that' it would be worth their while to remain on thefarms and - " produce." Touching on the subject of taxation, Senator Lenroot declared that at the present rate the overage tax to each family In the United States He said thaUthere is is $250. only one rule of taxation that is fair to all, and that is to tax each individual according to his ability to pay, and declared that federal laws should be passed so that thers would be a more even distribution of taxation. He urged the need of a government inheritance tax that would give to the government a portion of the money .accumulated by mAn'of great wealth. He also declared that among the first things that will have to be. done to decrease taxes ' Extravais to do away with inrelated then He many gance. stances ct how the present administration had failed to exercise what he termed as ordinary business judgment In carrying on the work of the war with regard to building cantonment and equipping the Boldlers.' In this connection he declared that the government had shipped twenty-tw- o million pounds of sugar to France and when sugar was selling in this country at 25 cents a pound that vast tonnage1' was scld to the people of France at 2 cents a pound. He deautomoclared. too, that 29,000 biles which had been purchased by the United States government and . the world in the name of America. What he all endeavor with if I shall, elected, promised, my strength . to give.. That sufficiency of the Democratic platform says:' "We indorse the presidents view of ouf international obligations and his firm stand against reservations designed . to cut to pieces the vital provisions of the Versailles treaty. We advocate the immediate ratification of the treaty without reservations. Mr. Cox, of course, has a perfect right to change his mind, but in doing so we are inclined to believe that he is ..liable to embarrass many of his followers, since they may not be closely in touch with him, and his latest doctrine. We wonder, too, if Mr. Cox jur.Vl scented which way the WANTED A 3IAN TO LEAD.
