4 CAMPAIGN BASED

Lodgs speech today notifying Mr..
harding OF his nomination; Mr. Hard

other utterance which has come forth
from the mouth Of the Republican can
didat" since his nomination, on the is
sues Of the day, have been based on the
assumption that Woodrow Wilson and
his idcals are menace not only to
ms own country but the human race in
general.
These assumptions are promulgat-

cepted facts instead Of what they are

ana are laboring under the delusion
that everybody else thinks the same
way about Il.
Heres sample of Senator Hard
'ngs campaign OF assumption: In a
statement issued the other day Mr..
Harding in bewailing the Splendid
accord" established Sunday between
President Wilson and Senator Cox de-
clarcd that the triumph of the demo-
cratic ticket this year will mean a
continuation of the foreign policy
which has SO greivously disappointed
both Europe and America.
When Mr.. Harding assumes that Mr..
Wilson's foreign policy has "greivously
disappointed both Europe and Amer
ica" he is dealing with an assumption
without any basis of fact.
As has already been intimated, the
Republican presidential campaign is
being built upon the assumption that
Woodrow Wilson is menace TO the
country and to the World.
And what is this assumption that
Woodrow Wilson is a menace to the
nation and the world based upon :.
Nothing more nor less than that Mr..
Wilson has evolved one of the most
logically practical, and most common
sense efforts in the history Of mankind
to prevent future wars, with all their
attendant horrors.
Brother Harding and his crowd win
have to produce more tangible evil

expect to win this election on the
theory that Woodrow Wilson has heeu

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL TICKET

v"ntJon by its action placed the seal

opinion as to his candidacy.
The unexpected result, which those
IN control did not anticipate, is that
this action formally releases ALL
democrats from any obligation to sup
port the party ticket. 1t releases the
News Champion both for the primaries
and the general election, and We are
frank to say that there are certain can
didates forced upon the convention by
the non-partisan league and ultra rad
ical elements allied, with the announc-
ed intention of disrupting the demo-
cratic organization of the county,

port, altho there is good reason to be-
heve the primaries will eliminate
them in September.
We do not intend this article to be
taken as n notice that the News
Champion is going to bolt the ticket,
whether or no. Far from it. We SIM
ply want to bring logically and clearly
before certain factions which are re-
sponsible for this action, the inevitable
results of their policy. Neither have
we any argument to advance about the
belief of the non-patisans or their
personnel. The only point at issue is
their right to "bore from within" and
the wisdom of allowing it by the dem.
ocratic party.
