The , progressive and Roosevelt elements In the Republi can national convention were beaten. "Warren G. Harding, conservative, old fashioned 'i Republican, who looks like nfcKinley, acts like Mc Kinley and thinks like ; McKlnley, wag nominated' for" the, presidency by a convention that was worn out by the prolonged 'balloting in a sweltering temperature. The dele gates jseeraed so delighted to have it . all over that as soon as the deadlock between; General "Wood - and Gover nor Lowden was broken. the j dole gates didn't ' much i care who - they nominated so long as it gave them a chance to go home. , If opinion among the several hun dred - correspondents here counts . for much, the expressions of doubt concern log Harding's - opportunity to win . are not indicative of a belief that the Repub licans nominated their : strongest, man. Hughes, Sprpule, Johnson were regarded a sure Winners,- but Harding is looked upon as far from v certainty.' Possibly thia will charigv 'wbeaftbayrSaaMBarata have nominated , their man, but the ed itors, correspondents and Indeed many ' of the managers who worked so hard for Leonard Wood and Hiram Johnson were amlnously doubtful about the outcome. -- Tet Senator Hardin: is a 'man who -Improves upon acquaintance and nobody will know untilthe campaign is well under Way "Whether or not the Ameri can people after alt are inclined to elect a man of the Harding type. : He is con- . snientioiis and honest ; Jie haa a splen did reputation' for rugxed Americanism.
