the "oI.D GUARDS" VICTORY,

II the republicans win the Novep-
Der election it will not be because Of
the strength Of their position but be-
cause Of the greater comparative
weakness Of the democratic position
And II the San Francisco convention
affords more depressing spectacle
than the Chicago convention. IL will
be because the rival democratic lead
ers have clubbcd out each others po.
litieal brains,
The "old guard" Of the x. o, y.
never dies, although II sometimes
surrcnders and often compromises,
II finally succeeded through the ae-
tivities Of It's senatorial skirmishers
at Chicago in nominating its man.
But the intriguing solons were COM
pelled to reach compromise with
the johnson radicals by which the
League Of Nations principle is virta'
ally repudiated and vague scheme
submitted which would substitute
something similar to The Hague
Tribunal
That forty or more world powers
are members Of the League Of Ma
tions, that the league embodies the
ideas Of many leading republicans as
well as a democratic president, that
the Uniteh States stands virtually
committed to the league as now IN
being carried no weight with the re-
publican convention. It was deter
mined to endorse nothing for which
President Wilson stands sponsor, and
its bitter partisan rancor toward the
president quite likely had as much to
do with the leagues defeat as the
pressure brought to bear by anti
league leaders Of the Johnson and
Borah stamp.
Harding, who is described as a
lovable man Of the Mckinley type
is not an Objectionable candidate
Beyond doubt he is 4 good man II not
a great one. The objection lies in
the manner Of his nomination
through the scheming Of "old guard
senator's who paid not the slightest
attention to the result Of the presi-
Dental primary. They visualize in
him a president who will constant
ly consult them and whom they will
virtually control. A vote for Hard
ing is really vote for the "old
guard" Voters will be quick to APP
prehend this fact, and as the cam
paign progresses we believe it will be
found an element Of weakness. The
disaffection of labor, which de-
nounced at its Montreal convention
the republican platform, will like
wise be found an element of weak
ness. But we feel that the greatest
disappointment Of the Chicago con-
vention falls to millions of friends Of
the League Of Nations who hoped for
the support of the republican party.
II now remains for the democratic
party to adopt n strong league plank
and join the issue. And it remains
for that party to be guided by wis
dom and not by factional feeling.
The wet and dry question--which is
settled already and does not belong
in the convention--or differences be-
tween party leaders must not be al
lowed to spoil a prospect at best none
too bright, and but for republican
blundcrs well-nigh hopeless.
We attach little Importance to the
"third party" movement. It's leaders
are by no means political heavy
weights and we do not think it will
appreciably affect the result, since
whatever disgruntled ard radical
vote it is able to command will be
drawn perhaps equally from the
ranks Of both of the real contenders.
