A rery enthusiastic meeting of the

progress. A number of women at

played by them in the campaign as
sures us of n much appreciated as
sistance from that source.
Wednesday evening of each week
at 7:30 o'clock has been agreed
upon as the regular meeting night.
Plans were discussed for bringing
wveral prominent speakers, both
men and women, to the city during
the campaign and special regard will
te given to selecting speakers of a
type beyond the criticism of paid po
litical pettifoggers.
Our republican friends contend
they do not need organizing, "lis
true every dog has his day and this
may be theirs', but when It's over
they'll have to admit we did our
darndest.
Senator Harding has wiggled and
wabbled eight times on the league of
nations question, says Governor Cox.
1. He voted with the mild reser
vatloniBts. 2. Advocated the Lodge reserva
tions. 3. Voted for the Knox resolution
for a separate peace with Germany.
4. Accepted the republican plat
form, which declares that the league
of nations has signally failed.
5. Troposed a separate peace with
Germany and the "scrapping" of the
league of nations.
6. Advbcated the restoration of
dead Hague tribunal.
7. Says the league of nations hns
paused beyond the possibility of res
toration and has been abandoned by
Europe.
8. States that "amendment or re
vision or reconstruction" of the
league is still among the posslbili

and yet. In the face of all this tlitll
culty, Governor Cox has given sub
strntial and Incontrovertible evi
dence that his charges are true and
thit if a thorough investigation is
mr de the full truth of his charges
will be completely proven.

We take it all back. We retreat.
We apologize. We were mistaken.
We wasted, our smypathy, worked
ourselves into a high pressuie of
ilf.hteouB indigestion In vain. Pro
hibition did not cause the winegrapo
growers of California to clamor at
the gates of the poor farms in large
masses. Their property was not
co lfiscated and their income was not
cut off. On the contrary, the grow
ers of grapes suitable only for wine
making purposes have never made as
much money as they have salted
away since prohibition killed the
legitimate wine trade and created a
new home Industry. In the period
li. P., wine grapes sold as low as five
dollars a ton, and fifteen dollars was
considered a good price. So enor
mous was the quantity of these
gradeB that their use In the manufac
ture of grae Juice, grape syrup and
similar products could afford an out
let for only a very small part of the
total harvest, yet most of the land
producing theBe wine grapes was fit
for no other crops. Hence the fear
of the poor house.
This fear .turned out to be wholly
groundless. Immediately A. P. there
arose a demand for dried grapes of
every kind In every part of tho coun
try, a demand so strong and Insistent
that dried wine grapes reached twen
ty cents a pound, corresponding to
$140 a ton for the fresh grapes.
What becomes of these dried grapes

"It Is the folly of speeding In driv
ing automobiles on short runs In city
streets. Here the risk of accident
Is very great and, as I shall show
by means of a simple diagram, the
time saved per mile of run, or short
runs, between moderate speed and
very high speed Is quite small. Un
less your readers have studied the
matter, they will probably be hi.
prised to note the small time saving,
per mile run, between a high spel
and a relatively low speed. This Is
due, of course, to the fact that at
high speed it takes much less time
to cover a mile.
"For example. At 10 miles per
hour one mile Is covered In si .nlrv
utes and at 60 miles per hour i I
covered in one minute. Tin; differ-!
ence of five minuteB is the timet
caved pei mile as between tho 'wo
speeds. Similarly at 30 miles per
hour one mile is covered in two in in-1
utes, a saving of four minutes, as i
compared with the six minutes re-1
quired at ten miles an hour, etc. !
"Twenty miles an hour In the '
business section Is all that any sane
person dare hope to establish as a'
safe speed. The average trip'
through the business section is b us !
than a mile and traflic conditions;
rarely permit even a reckless driver:
to accelerate to more than fortv !
miles. In a mile run, you get to j
jo..r uesunation oniy one ana oiie-
half minutes sooner at forty miles
an hour than you do at twenty.
There's a pretty gamble! Life ami
property against ninety seconds. Is
it not astounding how many people
Insist on taking that-chance? Take
driving over the open road. The law-
says that more than 26 miles an hour
Is dangerous. Put let's be a lltt'e
more liberal and make it 30.
"Now suppose you are on a trip
of fifty miles. Even if you drive
the entire distance at CO miles an
hour an utter lmpossibilty with the
average car you save less than half
an hour. The best you can do is to
run at a fast pace over short dis
tances. Thaj gains. you but a few
moments all told yet every burst
of speed, especially with other ve
hicles on the road, puts you and
Others In peril.
"It is therefore ridiculous to Jus
tify dangerous driving on the grountl
of time saved, even on long trips.
And deep In his heart, the speed
maniac doesn't pretend to explain it
that way. He knows that the rea-
on he drives so recklessly Is an In
sane love of speed, strongly tinc
tured with a vanity over his daring
and skill. About the only exceptions
to this are when Jonn Barleycorn,
instead of a human being, Is at the
steering wheel." Omaha Chpmber

Governor Cox charged that the'
republicans planned to raise a great j
campaign fund of $15,000,000,
which greatly exceeds all legitimate'
uses. He exhibited as evidence a
list of fifty-one cities with various
quotas which totaled well over 8,
000,000, although these cities con
tain less than one-fourth the popu
lation of the United States. Cleve
land, O., was given a quota of $400,
00; Washington, D. C. $50,000: At
lanta, Go., $25,000: Newark. N. J.,
$100,000; Cincinnati, O., $200,000.
Chairman Hays and Treasurer
Upham. of the republican national
committee, denied that any quotas
had been fixed; they said they had
prepared a budget of $3,000,000 or
$4,000,000. aj jrtTt

mittee, investigating campaign ex
penditures, has had before It many
witnesses, including Chairman Hays,
Treasurer. Upham and Harry M.
Blair, the assistant to Treasurer Up
ham, who seems to the chief of the
"money diggers." The testimony of
these gentlemen and others has de
veloped: 1. That there was a list of quotas
for fifty-one cities.
2. That Cleveland's quota of
$400,000 was the exact amount
named In the list given out- by Gov
ernor Cox and denied by Chairman
Hays. That Washington's quota was
$50,000, the amount named in Gox
ernor Cox's list and denied by" Chair
man Hays. That Atlanta's quota
was $26,000, as given In the list of
Governor Cox, and denied by Chair
man Hays; and Newark's and Cincin

earned by Governor Cox and denied
by Hays and Upham.
