OTTAWA, Ont, July s.--"I have
absolute confidence that the approach
ing Presidential election in the United
States will result in success for the Re-
publican ticket and that we shall have
the league with the reservations nee
essary for the guidance and protection
of our country"
In these words former President Will
liam II. Taft, who arrived in Mon
trent to-day, expressed his opinion on
the political situation across the
border.
"In the first place" said Mr.. Taft.
both the candidates are from the State
of Ohio, state ordinarily Republican.
but which went Democratic in the last
Presidential election. Harding was
elected as Senator in 1914. On the
part Of the Republican party, I have
great confidence that thes Harding
ticket will be elected Ny confidence
in such a result is due greatly to the
general uhpopularity in the states Of
the Democratic Administration under
Mr.. Wilson.
Decries Wilson Partisanship
1.-THE Wilson Administration was par
ticularly partisan during the period Of
war-at a time when the exigency
would naturally lead President TO
open his arms to both parties. In most
of the other countries coalition govern
ments were the order of the day. But
nothing Of this nature was ever sug
gested by Mr.. Wilson. In 1918, i'm
mediately after the war, Wilson asked
fC, /,
the Republican party had been stronger
in holding UP his hands than the Demo
Gratis. The trend of the feeling against
the Wilson Democratic Administration
is shown by the election of Republi-
can majority in the House and Senate
in 1918
at is somewhat difficult to forecast
the specific issues at stake" Mr.. Taft
continued. "Persohally, I am much
more hopeful that the United States
will enter the league under Republican
success than a Democratic success.
"If Mr.. Wilson had been willing to
Grey stated that Great Britain was per-
fectly- willing to accept, we would have
been in the league now But MIR. Will
son refused on the grounds that Article.
X must be unimpaired.
Cause of Deadlock
Mark you, the Republican Senators
in the Senate will snevec consent to
Article X in its present form without
reservation. Wilson, on the other
hand, insists upon the article being &C
cepted without reservation. And there
you have the deadlock--the keynote of
the whole situation
"1f the Republican party comes in
there is nothing for it to dc, having
the treaty on hand, but to adopt the
treaty with reservations to Article X.
A Republican, President, Mr.. Harding,
who voted for the league with reser-
vations, would undoubtedly submit it to
the powers"

Prohibition Party Will
Put Ticket i'm Field
Omission of Dry Plank by Dem

nOunced by Chairman

CHICAGO, July S.-The present pros
pect is that the Prohibition party will
nominate Presidential ticket in it's
national convention at Lincoln, Neb.,
beginning July 21, says Virgil G. Hin
shaw, chairman of the Prohibition Ma
tional Committee.
"Both the Republican and Demo
cratic parties, by emitting a plank in
dorsing the Eighteenth Amendment,
have dismally failed in living up to the
standards demanded by the American
Eeople in fcrty-five states," said Mr..
Hinshaw, in a formal statement. "We
of the Prohibition party consider it in
cumbent upon us to maintain party
organization to give expression to the
millions of dry voters in the country"
For the first time in the history Of
Prohibition National Convention, one
OF the sessions will be given over to
law-enforcement mass meeting. An
other new feature of the 1920 conven-
tion will be the discussion of world
prohibition. "Womans Hour" is the
theme of third session. Aaron Wat
kins, of Germantown, Ohio, as tempo
rary chairman, will make the keynote
address.

tification, visited the headquarters to
complete arrangements for the notifi-
cation ceremonies at Marion July %.
Harry M. Daugherty, pre- PRIMARY
campaign manager for Senator Hard
ing, has invited all the members Of the
National Committee, the notification
committee and the executive commit
tee to dinner with him in the Columbus
Athletic Club. Columbus, the night be-
fore the notification. From there the
guests will go by special train to
Marion next morning.
Mr.. Daugherty, when asked to-day
about Senator Harding's campaign
plans and what the latter probably will
make the main issues, said such mat
ters rested solely with the candidate.
Belief was expressed that the Sena-
tors front porch campaign would prob
ably be abandoned for a few weeks
when the campaigning becomes more
intense. Mr.. Daugherty told of having
received no fewer 'han 300 insistent
demands throughout the nation asking
that Senator Harding take a "swing
around the circle" Mr.. Hays is also
that Senator Harding take the stump.
when the front porch campaign was
decided upon said Mr.. Daugherty,
Eve didn't bind ourselves to it. We
Will make it home campaign as much
as possible, but we stand ready to meet
conditions as they arise. Requests pile
in daily asking that Senator Harding
appear in person in many states"
Elmer Dover Mark Hannas right
hand man and Western adviser for the
committee, declared that Harding's per-
sonality would win the hearts of the
voters of the Western states if he
would go the rounds.
Jacob l., Babler, national commit
teeman from Missouri, was in confer
ence with Mr.. Hays and members of
the advisory committee this afternoon.
1t is reported Babler may resign in an
effort to win Missouri for the Repub-
lican party Babler's resignation has
been demanded by Republicans at Sc
