WHY WEST I8 SAID TO HAVE TURNED AGAINST WILSON, To understand why the majority of the Western States will go Republican one must revert to the 1916 campaign, The Woat did not like war and tried to keep out of It. Once entered into the fray, the West contributed brawny eeldiers and al! its money and crops to win, But {t didn't ac- quire any effection for war. It re- sented war conditions and chafed under war restrictions, The Republi- . ean preas of the West, at first friendly to the League of Nations, still favors the principle of a world association, but says the present League ts Wil- son's League and means war, ¢- tangiementa in foreign troubles and | Western press is partly due to the foregoing thought. For it ie truw that even the despatches from Marion have not been conspicuously displayed all the time. On the other hand, Gov. Cox has a rightful case when he com- plains that in some Western cities his speeches were not even printed or tha trivial portions were given promi- nence and a decidedly prejudicial twist carried in the headlines. It ls true that Gov. Cox had to be caught in @ ratiroad wreck to get on the first page of one San Francisco newspaper which ail but ignored his visit to that city.

But It will be seen that Gov Cox's prospective total is only slightly more than half of President Wilson's total weat of the Mississippi In 1916 This means Gov. Cox's chance of elec- tion lies entirely in the States cast of the Mississippi, where New York's forty-five, for Instance, would over- come the losses in the West. bE ine Man's Body Found in North River. ‘The body of an unidentified man wns found in the North River at the foot of Franklin Stret to-day.
