LYON, N. EL A. Special Corr spondent, Columbus, ©., Jan, 5.—There's one thing about Governor James M.

If there's ‘anything in luck, he ought to get it. Read his lucky record: HAD THE’NOMINATION HANDED TO TIM For many. years, up to 1908, ‘the ‘hird Ohio Congressional Distriet, had heen heavily Republican, with. ‘no chances fora Democratic editor like “Jimmie” Cox of the Dayton’ News, to break into. office, But, in. that year the Republicans split. and had two candidates for Coa: gress at the election, The Democrats handed Cox, the Democratic. nomina- tion on a platter, He polled the regu lar- Democratic’ strength, while his two Republican opponents divided theirs.

Even before his nomination in 1913 for ‘governor he was on the stump ad- vocating ‘the ‘initiative and referen- dum, a workmen’s compensation law and many other progressive reforms.

Both the political and econ- omic situations are believed here to have grown daily worse since early Autumn, The holiday season found ‘Vienna with’ a ‘reduced bread ration, .virtual- ly no fats and without fuel.

Austria would obtain sufficient credit, fre] and raw maeerial for the resumption, of their industrial life. ‘Now, that the result of his journey has: become known the newspapers sound a note of despair.
