NEGRO REPUBLiMNS
MEO, JOHNSON'S
HIDICULOULCHARGE
CHICAGO, July B.—The Senate
committee investigating campaign
expenditures will move to St. Louis
tonight to takp up the investigation
of Attorney General Palmer’s cam
paign for the Democratic nomlna
| tion. Chairman Kenyon announced
when the hearing was resumed here
today.
The principal witnesses In the
Palmer investigation will be Ed
ward F. Goltra, Democratic nation
al committeeman from Missouri, and
Joseph T. Davis, an attorney qf St
Louis.
A report that Goltra paid the ex
penses of 28 delegates to the state
convention which ousted Senator
Reed from his national convention
seat, will be one of the matters in
vestigated, it was said. Senator Reed
is a member of the investigating
committee.
Negroes who have voted the Re
publican ticket In Georgia have “dis
appeared” and never have been
heard of again, Henry Lincoln John
son, of Atlanta, negro Republican
national committeeman, told the com
mittee.
The committee was questioning
Johnson about lynchings in the
south.
“They don’t lynch men for belong
ing to the Republican party, do
they?” asked Senator Kenyon.
Negroes “Disappeared”
“Oh, yes they do,” Johnson re
plied. “Many a negro voting th.i
Republican ticket has disappeared
and no tidings have ever been heard
of him.”
In Dublin, Ga, during the pre-co
ventlon campaign, there was “wild
use of money,” the witness asserted.
“I spent $l5O there,” he explained,
“but the other fellows spent more
than $2,000.
“The other fellows,” he said, "were
the representatives of Major General
Leonard Wood, while I was working
for my national committeeman."
Asked if Wood supporters "bought
delegates,” Johnson said he didn’t
know, but “they passed out plenty
of jack to the boys.”
Johnson declared that backers of
General Wood spent “around $60,000
in Georgia, while the Lowden sup
porters spent only $20;000.”
Clark L. Grier, former postmaster
at Augusta, Ga., was the “pay-oft
man” for the Wood people, he said,
adding that Grier worked under di
rect orders from Frank Hitchcock,
former postmaster general in the
Roosevelt cabinet.
Palmer Race Sere
Senator Kenyon suddenly turned to
the Palmer campaign in Georgia, ask
ing Johnson if officials of the depart
ment of justice took part in the at
torney general’s campaign there.
"Hooper L. Alexander, of Atlanta,
was the leader," Johnson said.
Other questions concerning activi
ties of the department of justice in
Georgia brought no definite informa-
Johnson told the committee that
85 per cent of the negroes in south
er nstates were prevented from vot
ing "by brutal force and suppres
sion." He said the situation was
summed up in the following words,
which he attributed to a speech by
Senator Hoke Smith:
"In Georgia no negro is fortunate
enough to vote, while no white man
is too unfortunate to vote.”
Johnson, who is said to have re
ceived $9,000 from the Lowden cam
paign chest, was the first witness
called today.
Democratic Prices
Democrats paid from $5 to $5,J00
for votes in Georgia this year and
"generally spent more money than
the Republicans,” Johnson told the
committee.
’Not one cent given to me was
given to any delegate to the Repub
lican national convention," the wit
ness declared. He said he received
$9,000 from Illinois, "but not from
Governor Lowden himself." He spent
$7,000 or SB,OOO of his own money,
he added, and $4,000 was raised from
other sources. . :
When the witness charged the
Democrats had spent more money
than he did and had bought votes in
local elections, Senator Reed. Dem
ocrat, interrupted to ask:
“You don’t care when you get $9,-
000, do you?”
“Not a bit,” the witness replied,
“but I would need about $50,001 to
combat some Democratic conditions
there.”
The steam roller in the Republic
an national convention was an "In
stitution of benevolence,” compared
with the Democratic. steam roller in
Georgia, Johnson said, adding that
conditions there were controlled by
the administration.
Goinj? back to the Wood campaign,
Johnson said National Committee
man George Bean, of Florida; Cap
tain Henry Blun, of Savannah, Ga.,
and D. C. C->le, former postmaster
of Atlanta, “cared nothing about
Wood,” but were ordered to “pre
pare a delegation for Mr. Hitchcock
to boss.”
Johnson charged that offers of
postmasterships were made openly
by Wood backers to men of influ
ence to get Wood votes. “Many of
the men backing Wood were former
postmasters," he) said.
“Were any of your men offered
jobs as postmasters?” Senator Ken
yon asked.
“Not directly, but they would not
let the crown be of ere d them too
many times,” Johnson answered. “I
might have said I would use my in
fluence.”
The committee completed its w’ork
in Chicago with the examination of
Johnson.
The committee will leave tonight
for St. Louis, where investigation
of Attorney General Palmer’s cam
paign for the Democratic president
ial nomination will be opened tomor
row, with a score of witnesses to
be heard.

Hundred-Pound Tarpon
Takes Sweet Revenge
On These Fishermen
, ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., July B.
While fishing at Egmont Key near
here Saturday, Collier McCall and
Wayne and Robert Lassing were star
tled to the point of almost jumping
overboard when a huge tarpon weigh
ing in the neighborhood of 100
pounds, leaped high in the air and
came down in the boat.
McCall had hooked the silver king,
which had jumped once and he was
playing the beauty in deep water
under the boat, when suddenly the
fish, without a moment’s warning,
left the water a few feet from the
boat and after rising some fifteen
feet in space came down inside the
boat.
When the thrashing fish kerflopped
into the boat, the other occupants
made for the extremities of the craft,
ready to seek refuge in the briny
deep, should such a course become
necessary.
After tearing up everything break
able in the boat, the fish finally suc
ceeded in flirting itself over the side,
and from latest reports is still angri
ly on its way, away from the boat
where such an unwelcome reception
was accorded a perfectly fine, if im
pulsive tarpon.
The tarpon’s gyrations while in the
boat precluded any additional fishing
for that trip, as tackle of every de
scription was torn up or ruined by
the silver tinner during his short
stay.

COX IS EABER TO
START ■»
VISITSJLD HOME
DAYTON, O„ July B.—The presi
dential campaign of Governor James
M. Cox, will be outlined early next
week at a conference of Franklin D.
Roosevelt, vice presidential nominee,
Homer S. Cummings, chairman of
the Democratic national committee;
E. H. Moore, Cox’s manager at San
Francisco and probably other promi
nent Democrats.
Governor Cox said today it is his
desire to plunge into an active and
vigorous campaign at the earliest
possible date. Only the protests of
many prominent Democrats will de
ter him from making a tour, it is
known, but he is delaying final de
cision on this question until after
a series of conferences. Today Cox
plans to visit his birthplace, Jack
sonburg, Ohio, about 25 miles from
here, miking .the trip by motor to
greet boyhood friends.
The Democratic nominee desires to
make the middle west his first bat
tle ground. That Cox is anxious to
get into the campaign fight was re
vealed when he spoke to the Ohio
State Golf association at the Day
ton Country club last night. Sev
eral times he came near to speaking
on political questions, but then
switched to golf.
Although he is ready for the big
battle, he stated to the golfers that
he will keep his part of the cam
paign free from bitter personalities
Cox urged the association to en
courage home building as one of the
surest means of stimulating real
patriotism.
“Things are not going to pot,” he
said. “Better days are just ahead
and I believe clean, open competi
tion in politics will help bring them.
It is a good thing that once ever?/
four years we lift our eyes off the
commercial ledger and put them on
the flag.”
Once it seemed that Cox would
bring up the prohibition issue but he
suddenly switched, remarking that he
knew when he was on “thin political
ice.”
Dayton citizens are apprehensive
that efforts may be made to have
the notification ceremonies take
place in Columbus and they are pre
pared to go the limit, if necessary,
to nullify such an arrangement in
case it should be pressed by any
one. From present indications, the
notification ceremonies probably will
take place at Trail’s End, the gov
ernor’s suburban home, where sev
eral thousand people gathered two
weeks before his nomination to cele
brate with him the occasion of the
departure of the Ohio delegation for
San Francisco.
The governor’s interest in golf
was declared by Lee Warren James,
president of the Dayton chamber of
commercq. t 0 be best exemplified by
an incident that occurred on Satur
day before the nomination was made
at San Francisco. James said he
and the governor were just leaving
the locker for the course for an aft
ernoon round when an attendant call
ed out that San Francisco wanted
Governor Cox on the telephone.
“Tell them I’ll talk tonight," was
the governor’s reply, according to
James.
Hobson Questions Oox
Governor Cox today was asked by
Richmond P. Hobsin. Alabama dry
leader, to make a clear definition of
his position on the prohibition issue.
In a telegram from San Francisco,
Hobson said a statement from Cox
to the effect that he was opposed to
any increase in the maximum alco
holic content of one-half of 1 per
cent, as passed by the Volstead law.
“would save to Democracy millions of
voters who hold this question above
party success.”
The Democratic nominee said that
he expected to answer Hobson and
the league later in the day, and in
dicated that he did not expect to
dodge the issue.
Hobson’s telegram follows:
“Dry forces are restive. Republi
cans amongst them are applying to
Harding for strong statement. Do
not let these forces have cause to
crystallize on the highest Republican
candidates. Ninety-five per cent of
population of America live in states
that have ratified eighteenth amend
ment without reservation. They are
jealous of its integrity. Supreme
court decision warned congress
against authorizing increase in alco
holic contents. National officers of
Anti-Saloon league here have asked
me to get statement from you. They
cited that Harding voted for Volstead
act. Could you give me clear state
ment of your being opposed to federal
authorization of increasing alcoholic
content? This would save to Democ
racy millions of voters who hold this
question above party success.”
Cox’s Private Office
“Up in room No. 6,” promises to
be one of the most used phrases of
Democratic campaign history.
Room No. 6 is reached by climb
ing to the third floor of Governor
Cox’s newspaper building.
“Publisher’s office, private,” ap
pears on the door and in the room
the Democratic nominee plans to
hold many of the big conferences on
the campaign, as well as directing
the publishing of his newspaper.
On the -wall appears a large pic
ture of President Wilson —and Cox,
taken a few years ago in Washing
ton. Cox sits behind a huge desk
with a large flag which covers al
most the entire front of the bulla
ing, shading the windows. The edi
tor of his newspaper is in a room
at one side and his private secretary
on the other. For the last few days
the desk has been piled high with
congratulatory telegrams which he
has been answering with the as
sistance of his friend, former Ad
jutant General Wood, of Ohio
Newspaper men have found that
the word “Private” on the Cox of
fice door is not to be taken very
seriously. He has given, them the
privilege of breaking in at almost
any time.
Governor Cox stated he Plans to
have an early conference with Pres
ident Wilson on campaign plans, but
not date has been set. The governor
has received scores of invitations to
speak, but has decided to make no
public addresses until after campaign
plans are outlined at conferences
next week. x ,
Senator James A. Reed, in a tele
gram from Kansas City, congrat
uated Cox and expressed the hope
that he would not consent to the
surrender of American sovereignty.
Other messages were from Sena
tors Owen and Gore. Ambasador Hugh
Wallace, Paris; former Ambassador
Thomas Nelson Page, Senator John
Sharp Williams, Mississippi; Gover
nor Gardner, Missouri: Secretary of
Agriculture Meredith, Howard Chand
ler Christy and Fred Bruhl, head of

TWO CONVENTIONS
DIFFERED LITTLE
IN LEADERSHIP
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
(Copyright, 1920, for The Atlanta Journal.)
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., July B.
Anybody who attended both the Re
publican and Democratic conventions
will always be asked whether or not
one or the other or both of them
were controlled or bossed. Os course,
the Democrats point enthusiastical
ly to the forty-four ballot and to
the prolonged debate on the platform
as evidence that the delegates work
ed out their choices here without
dictation or undue Influence.
But the writer, who isn’t in the
slightest degree interested which
party is successful next fall, came
to the conclusion that in only a very
few places did the Democratic con
vention differ from .the Republican
gathering. Essentially they were the
same. Senator Penrose wielded his
influence as of old. So did Charlie
Murphy, of Tammany hall. The old
guard in each party came back to
party control this year. Alongside
the veterans at Chicago, the group
who tried to get the nomination for
Hiram Johnson were the merest ama
teurs. And alongside Murphy, of
New York; Brennan. of Illinois;
Nugent, of New Jersey; Moore, of
Ohio; Marsh, of lowa, and Stanley,
of Kentucky, the group of Democrats
who were born with the advent of
Woodrow Wilson at Baltimore, were
the merest cadets.
Everybody who is in a position to
know the facts will testify that the
master politician of the progressive
Democracy—Woodrow Wilson kept
hands off because his son-in-law was
in the race, but it is also true that
Mr. McAdoo’s fortunes would have
fared much better if he had had
at San Francisco somebody like Dan
iel C. Roper to deal with the Demo
cratic bosses and talk to them in
their own language.
The convention itself was unboss
ed in the sense that the balance of
power was held by a set of western
delegates who were free from east
ern domination. But these delegates
were worn out and confused by the
effort of the chief McAdo leaders
to play the game with the old men,
which they knew ever so much bet
ter. It is true the bosses who favor
ed Governor Cox’s nomination be
cause they thought him wet enough
to help their local tickets in state
and city campaigns did not actually
control a majority of the Democratic
convention.
Nomination Not Tainted
Jimmy Coy didn’t get a tainted
nomination. No, the delegates who
were for McAdoo were converted by
those infinitely painstaking processes
of persuasion which are known only
to those who have worked on a con
vention floor in the heat of battle.
•The west finally swung to Cox, and
the speech made by Senator Pat Har
rison, of Mississippi, nominating
Cox. together with the skilfully pre
sented arguments concerning Cox’s
fine record as governor of Ohio dur
ing three terms, helped create, so
far as Cox himself was concerned,
an atmosphere entirely favorable.
The deadlock and struggle came be
cause of the wets who were espous
ing Cox.
The Democrats must be given
credit, however, for one piece of
political wisdom which the Repub
licans should have followed. The
managers of the McAdoo forces vir
tually entered into an agreement that
the choice must be McAdoo or Cox.
No dark horse was to be considered
so long as either had a chance to
win as against any other candidates.
The Democrats didn’t eliminate their
strongest vote-getters simply because
of rivalry ‘between managers as at
Chicago. One side here surrendered
to the other. ,
First Palmer withdrew, then Mc-
Adoo’s men capitulated. Disinter
ested Republicans say Wood or Low
den or Johnson would have been bet
ter vote-getters than Harding. Ot
course, the Republican leaders at
Chicago considered the resentment
over the Wilson administration so
great as to make it possible for any
compromise candidate to ride into
power on the momentum of the
Gl ßut the d Republicans felt sure the
Democratic candidate would be Mc-
Adoo or some counterpart of Wil
son It happens that the Democratic
nominee was given birt A n V y ofPwood
who are almost as resentful of Wood
Tow Wilson’s treatment of organiza
tion Democrats as are the Repuo
licans on other issues Wilsonian. The
truth is, Governor Cox may be f °ond

Wilson’s administration; but enthusi

den, though they have . ta ®hich stm
chance with the west which sun
treasures its idealism and looks at
the achievements of Wilson as some
thing too big in history to be brush
ed aside by mistakes in the appoint
ment of third class postmasters.
Republicans at Chicago drew away
from the larger international issues
and reverted to the good old days of
tipple campaigning and simple
(lu estioys- Democrats who spent
more time arguing about beer and
wine than they did on. anything else.
Even after the platform was adopted
the liquor issue was the controlling
factor in the movement for and
ag i a t n i S s t to°be an old-fashioned cam
paign on both sides, probably with
the torchlight processions and
marching clubs. Jimmy Cox will
not have much of a quarrel wit>_
Senator Harding about the League of
Nations. Both will, ask <°r the same
thing—the ratification of the treaty
with reservations that reconcile all
differences.” For be it known that
the twenty-one Democratic senators
who voted for the Lodge reservations
threw most of their support here 1
Governor Cox since they expected
him not to offer them up on the al
tar because they differed with Presi
dent Wilson on the matter of reser
vations.
The league issue is likely to be
obscured in the east unless Hiram
Johnson jumps into the fray and de
mands that Harding interpret the
Republican platform too literally
The present outlook is for a straight
out fight on the merits of Republi
canism and Democracy apart entire
ly from afar Europe. Wars may
come and wars may go. Politics, if
nothing else, is back on a peace
basis.

Relief for Torpid Livers
And Habitual Constipation
The liver Is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness,
headaches, indigestion, gas, sour
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serious
troubles unless corrected immedi
ately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood
to absorb and carry into the sys
tem the impurities that the liver
and kidneys have failed to elimin
ate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only a third of your
trouble, and that is why you have
to take purgatives every few
nights. Calomel or other ordinary
laxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys and
blood while treating the liver, you
would put your entire system in
order and frequent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these important
facts, and after much study and
research compounded what is now
known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver,
Kidney and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in. one. This
was the Doctor’s favorita prescrip
tion for many years, being ins-i* by
his patients with marked success.
It is a harmless vegetable remedy
that will not make you sick, and
you may eat anything you like
while taking It.
