the beautiful Lady Coventry did not re-

resulted in an acute attack of some

ship of pennant. There were ten times as many
people in Great Falls interested in the result OF
the contest between Mayor Newman and Ex-
Mayor Fousek for the nomination OF mayor OF
Great Falls than are interested in who wins the
Republican party nomination for president OF
the United States, if we are to judge by the size
of the crowds waiting at this newspaper office
to learn the result. It was the same way as far
as We could Judge by the people gathered IN
front of the Republican evening paper to learn
the results Of the crucial ballots at Chicago Sat
urday forenoon. At times there were two or
three or four or five people gathered in front OF
the Leader window to gaze at the bulletins and
read the details of the ballots. Quite often there
was no one at all to read them. In former years
the street would be crowded in front of the
newspaper offices to learn the result SO that
traffic would hardly be possible.
Why is this indifference SO manifest and what
does it indicate? No doubt considerable part
of it is due to the breaking up of party lines and
the growth of independent voting. But that does
not wholly account for it, and there is something
sinister to us in the change. For after all it is
matter of great Importance to the republic
what sort of men are put up as candidates for
chief executive of the nation, welding great
powers, and what sort of political platform they
stand on. We would rather see an excess OF
party zeal than so striking degree of public in
difference.

THE LEAGUE AS AN ISSUE.

The League of Nations is Going to be leading
issue in the present presidential campaign IN
spite of the cowardly action of the Republican
national convention in eliminating all direct
mention of it because they were so split up over
it that they dare not disclose their lack OF mar
mony. We are at least in approval of the orig
inal determination of Senators Johnson and Bo-
rah to make clean cut issue of it by denounc-
ing any League of Nations. We regret that they
did not have the courage of their convictions
and insist on the insertion of the plank they pre-
pared. and gave to the committee as an ulti-
matum. No doubt it might have caused row
in the convention, but they would have pre-
served their consistency at least. Senator Jonn-
son has had much to say about his determlna-
tion to have mo pussyfooting" on this subject
in the platform, and after much loud talk and
many brave words he accepted pussyfoot plank
that praised all shades of Republican senatorial
action on this subject, meant nothing, and did
not even mention the League of Nations by
name. In accepting that alleged compromise,
which was in fact a complete lodging OF the
whole question, Senators Johnson and Borah
compromised themselves and their record for
sincerity instead of compromising the issue.
But the issue will remain just the same, FOR
the Democratic convention that meets in San
Francisco will do no lodging. They are certain
to indorse the League Of Nations in accord with
the position of the president that it should be
ratified without essential changes that would
endanger it's acceptance by other nations of the
world or demand special advantages for our
selves not granted to other nations in the league
No one doubts any more that the Democrats as
whole are in sympathy with their president
in all his essential policies The Springfield Re-
publican says in comment on this topic that
''Woodrow Wilson after all may possess fiend-
ishly keen scent for a campaign issue calculated
to tangle up his great enemy, the Republican
party Thanks to him, the league is already
'paramounting' at Chicago. Thanks to him, it
will paramount at San Francsco-or bust the
Democratic party. If the delegates Of the peo-
pie in convention assembled cannot get away
from it, will the people themselves in the cam
paign be able to forget it? the Democrats will
demand the league without any impairment of
'its essential integrity" If the Republicans will
even indorse the league with reservations, while
defeating Johnson, the result Of the campaign
