Old Guard Finds Scant Com

FEAR NOVEMBER RESULTS
Swing Of Votes to Independent
or Democratic Nominees
Would Spell Defeat.
By JAMES r. NOURSE,


Universal Service.
There is a warning to reaction
ary Republican leaders in the vic
tories they have just achieved in
nominating their Senatorial can
didates in three of the most i'm
portant States of the Union.
Lodge won in Massachusetts by
about 100000. Townsend car
ried Michigan by a small plural
ity over his three opponents.
Poindexter has won in Washing
ton by a shallow margin in
field of five candidates.
But these victories afford
scant comfort to the reactionary
forces. For in each instance the
poll showed an amazing increase
in the Progressive strength in
those States with corresponding
reductions in the vote given the
reactionary candidates.
Old Leaders Topping.
The results tell the same story
that was recorded in the Senatorial
contests in Iowa, Indiana, Nebraska
North Dakota, California and Wis
consin held earlier in the season
the story OF n progressive uprising
against the old leaders. the old doc
trines and the old policies Of the
party organization.
The vote against Lodge, Townsend
and POindeXter respectively carries
q warning of further trouble In store
for those candidates In the NOvem
ber election, which may we'll cause
them to shake In their political boots
and wonder whether the progressive
tide may become well enough organ
lied to overwhelm them in the final
contest.
This is especially true of Town

bination of their vote or the con-
centration of even a part Of it upon
an independent candidate or upon

feat him in November. Townsend is
considered in greatest danger be-

given his opponents. There is some
talk of bringing out an independent

POindexter Also Menaced.
Poindexter is also considered in
danger in Washington, despite the
fact that the State has always
been considered safely Republican

dexter first came to the Senate he
was listed as a Progressive; after
