WEST FOR LEAGUE.

The west is for the league OF
nations and dead So agansf ihr
reactionary republican influences
ncW dominating congress. These
two facts stand out prominently
in summing up the political stu
alton in Utah, Nevada, Arizona
and California the four states
most recently visited by Homer
S. Cummings, chairman Of the
democratic national committee,
and party associates in their pre-
campaign swing around the CIR
Gle.
All four of the states mentioned
were listed in the democratic col
umn in the 1916 presidential elee-
ton and surface conditions today
warrant the belief that they will
remain there in 1920 To the
uninitiated the statement may
seem strange, but it is neverthe-
less true that the democrats are
strongly and apparently safely
entrenched in Utah The reYer-
sal in that state is one Of the most
complete in American political
history
In 1912 Utah and Vermont were
the only states carried by Taft in
the three cornered contest OF that
year. Four years later Clah
threw Off the republican yoke
and not only gave its ELECTORAL
vote to Woodrow Wilson. but
placed democrats in all the state
state offices from governor down,
and sent democrat to the United
States senate as the colleague Of
Senator Reed Smoot, who had
narrowly escaped defeat in 1914.
In the 1918 election Utah reaf-
firmed its faith in democracy,
with result that virtually every
precinct in the state registered
democratic majority. Senator
Smoot's home town, Provo, was
among the larger centers that
went to the democrats by a good
margin, as did Ogden, the locality
that saved Smoot in 1914.
Only a political upheaval can
upset the democrats in the Salt
Air Commonwealth in the next
campaign, and there are no signs
of such an overturning. On the
contrary there appears to be gen
eral satisfaction in Utah with
both the federal and state govern
ments. The best element Of Utah S
citizenship are men and women
now numbered among the demo-
Gratis. They are progressive, lib
eral-minded, prosperous people
who have no sympathy with the
forces Of reaction. They sup
ported the government to the
limit Of their man-power and their
material resources in the war and
are just as determined in their ef-
forts to aid the president to OBJ
tam a peace covenant that will
make another world conflict inn
possible.
In Nevada one find the same
sort of progressive, forward-look-
ing men and women as in Utah,
and the like should be said also of
Arizona and California The Ne
vada state government is demo
cratic and for the first time in
the history Of that rapidly grow
ing commonwealth it is repre-
scented in Washington by demo
Gratis in both branches of the ma
tional legislature. There is no
more competent state official any
where than Governor Boyle, the
youthful-almoSt boyish-looking
chief executive of Nevada. I'm
der his leadership and the bene-
ficent laws passed by democratic
congresses. Nevada is enjoying an
unprecedented boom
Nevada has made great strides
under democratic administration
and has no reason to seek a
change, said Governor Boyle.

ingly for the league of nations
