Plurality—Returns From West Awaited While Harding Success in East Took on Momentum.
Voters of the United States —including for the first time women in
every state —went to the polls on Tuesday and registered their choice for
President to succeed the incumbent, Wood row Wilson.
The Republican nominee, Senator Warren G. Harding, of Ohio, was
elected President and Governor Calvin Coolidge, of Massachusetts, Vive Presi
dent over the pemocratic candidate Governor James M. Cox, ot Ohio, and
Kranklin K. Roosevelt of New York, by a very large majority.
The campaign was waged over a period of four months with the demo
cratic candidates touring the country presenting their cause to the American
people. The republican candidates did not attempt to make a personal
canvass for votes by nation-wide speech-meklng, remaining for die most part
in the east and middle west.
The campaign was one ot issues rather than men, the personality ot
neither candidate atlrring little enthuaiaam among the voters.
The democratic party made the entrance of this country into Che League
of Nations the chlet Issue, from their side of the csmpaJgn, while the repub
licans presented their candidates, as not exactly against the League of
Nations, but advocating a little slower handling of the question and claHh
ing for our government the prompt handling of conditions facing our people
at home. '
On the face of returns showing the
growing landslide for Harding, Gover
nor Cox's own newspaper, The Dayton
Daily News, and Chairman White, of
the democratic national committee,
eoon after 11 o'clock Tuesday night
conceded the election of Senator Hard
ing.

WllHon in the (ace of pluralities (or
Hushes throughout the east, the demo
cratic candidate and his chief man
ager conceded that the solemn refer
endum which President Wilson de
clared would decide the league of na
tions question. American voters had
preferred Senator Harding who fav
ored "staying out" to Cpx, who favor
ad "going in."
Governor Cox, who was In his news
•paper office when the concession of
Senator Harding was published, said
he would issue no statement. Senator
Harding at his home J[n Marlon said
he was "more given to prayer to Ood
"to make me capable of playing my
part"
At midnight Governor Cox Wired
his congratulations to Senator Hard
ing and conceded his election.

of the republican candidate rame'wHh
the returns from the following states:
Conneoticutt, Delaware. Idaho. Illinois.

phatic In their claims of victory than
lin a long time, while the Democrats
! asserted that a late tide for Governor
| Cox had set in and that the state
| would give Its electoral vote to the
governor. The registration totals
shows a remarkable gain by the re
publicans. The democrats, who in pafet
years had-enjoyed an affiliated major
ity of from 85,000 to 40,000 in the
state, had cut down to a lead of 17,-
000.

Massachusetts.
Boston. —Democrats and republicans
generally agreed that Massachusetts
would go for Harding and Coolidge by
a heavy margin. Estimates were mix
ed because ot the woman vote and
the doubt as to how closely they

Atlanta.—Georgia went for Co* In
'Tuesday's election, but the vote for
'Harding was the largest ever cast in

democrats. The great drop in the
price of cotton also cut down the vote
'tor Cox and increased the rote for
Harding. Thomas E. Watson, bitter
anti-Wlleon and anti-league democrat,
wae elected United States senator to

PRESENTED WITH PRESIDENCY
As, Throughout tne Entire Campaign,
Mrs. Harding Was an Active Fig
ure ThrougAtout the Evening.
Marlon, O.—Warren G. Harding nad
tne greatest blrtnl ay party of his lifo.
Surrounded by members ot fe.V fam
ily and a circle of neighbors and per
sonal friends, he received quietly at
his home here the tribute of tl«e mil
lions who had voted to present him on
his Arty-fifth anniversary wWh tiie
presidency of the United States.
The smile of confidence ha has
worn for weeks broadened as he read
the early returns and began to receive
a flood of congratulatory messages
hailing h tan as President-elect. He de
ferred any formal comment, however,
until the result should have been
established 1 beyond all doubt.
During the day he outwardly had
concerned himself .very little with the
pending national decision. With Mrs.
Harding he voted during the morning
and then made ofT for a 49 mile auto
mobile ride and a game of golf at the
Scioto club near Columbus. He re
turned In the early evening, his face
. flushed by the raw fall air and his
spirits heightened by the tramp over
the muddy golf links.
Returns collected by the Associated
Preßa were delivered to his home dur
ing the evening from the special leas
ed wire which has been installed with
in a hundred feet of his front porch
since the campaign began. He scan
ned the presidential and congressional
returns with an equal show of inter
est, for he has asked the people re
peatedly for a republican Congress to
put the party's legislative program to
statute books: \
As throughout the whole campaign,
Mrs. Harding was an active figure
during the evening about the candi
date's headquarters. She familiariz
ed herself with local conditions in
many states and she studied the re
turns with an eye for political detail.
The senator's father, Dr. George T.
Harding, and two of his sisters, Miaa
Ablgal Harding and Mrs. Caroline
Votaw, also were in the family circle
and many friends from about town
dropped in during the evening to pay
their respects and chat with the Hard
ings. Outside in the street a crowd
gathered early, cheering the news of
the election returns as It filtered out
to them.
Harry M. Daugherty/of Columbus,
who was the senator's pre-convention
manager and who has been his :if>se
friend for years was one of those who
received the election figures here.
Since the Chicago convention he haa
served as a member of the campaign
executive committees, has accompani
ed the nominee on all of bis speaking
trips, and has been in consultation
with him in Marion far more frequent
ly than any other party leader.
Senator Harding' home precincts

ago the senator's precinct had gone
democratic, but a reappointment bad
ohange dprecinct lines,
i The first 22 precincts to report in
Marlon county gave unofficially:
Harding 4,339; Cox 2,874.
While the senator was at dinner
late In the evening a committee of
the employes of The Marlon Star, his
newspaper, called to present him
with a gold printer's make-up rule
and he came out on the front porch
and with hiq voice choking with
emotion thanked them for their devo
tion.
"I don't know of any call," he said
haltingly as tears rolled down his
cheeks, "that has aroused my emotions
more than this. I have worked with
you, and I have tried to be honest with
you; and God knows I am called to
responsibility 1 am going to be honest
vlth ev»r>bcdy in the wcrld. I don't
