It has partic: noticeable that in all the telegrams received from Democrats over the country commenting upon the a ptance speech, very few have praised Gov. Cox for his treaty stand. While officially pleased with the situation, it is no secret that Demo- cratic leaders in private are much dis- turbed over the failure to arouse any enthusiasm the League of Na tions. A great Deen be the { been over deal of disappointment has the ly cold! reception with which Democrats greet- ed the League of } pronounee- ments. Aside from the enthusiasm of officehoiders and administration Demo- crats, there have approval for the stand taken by Cox in adhering to President Wilson's program, is the league the fi Stalking behind it is the specter Prohibition and the as yet unanswered telegtani from Richmond P.

Gov. Cox hax sald he will answer} it in due time, and pressure is being? Urought to bear by dry Democrats, even more then by extremely Demo crats, that Cox outline his position. One error meade by Gov. Cox is caus+ ing no little to Democratic leaders and that is the failure to make any reference to the Irish question, An expression of sympathy, delicately worded, but soothing to the Irish vote, was confidently expected, so confidently expected, in fact, that no one thought it worth while to remind the thal thousands of loyal Democrats 6f Irish would be expecting vormething in the way of encouragetnent] over Ireland. A great deal of criticism is heard over fhis omission and there was tatk of} having the governor make up fot thts} neglect in an early speech; but comes on the other hand an elément of the Democratic party, not without its Infivefice, who are opposed w such} wet concern governor extraction | fairly good job of electioneering in the perfectly good reason.
