JOHNSON SEES G. O. P. VICTORY.
Says League Of Nations is Dead and
Harding Will Win.

Gays League OF tNaCIOnS IS Oea0 ana
Harding Will Win.
San Francisco, Sept 1.ASenato-
Hiram Johnson yesterday made this
public statement:
Senator Harding has scrapped the
league. This was done, really, by the
republican platform and in the re-
publican candidates speech of ac-
ceptance; but certain gentlemen and
certain newspapers, for their own
words Of the platform and OF the
candidate wholly at variance with
their plain tenor.
There can be no pretense now
even of misunderstanding. On Sat-
| urday, MI. Harding reiterated, in Ian
guage incapable Of two interpreta-
tions, his opposition and hostility to
the league of nations. He declares,
as we have all declared, in favor of
arbitration treaties, and the Hague
tribunal. He would go. as we would
all go. to very great lengths to pro-
mote peace and prevent war. But
the league of nations he des1gnates
correctly 'as an offensive and defen-
SlVe alliance of great powers Gre
ated to impose their will upon the
helpless peoples Of the world
'TIe says clearly, 7 am opposed
to such q scheme as that and he
adds, 7 am opposed to the very
thought of our republic becoming a
party to such a great outrage upon
the peoples who have as good right
to seek their political freedom as we
had in 177e.'
\ Governor COX says he favors go
ing into the league. Senator Hard
ing now emphatically answers he
favors staying out. The long fight is
won. We will go thru the form of
voting upon the question in Novem-
Der, but the election Of Senator
Harding is certain. The league is
dead"
