REPUBLICANS
ARE BEATEN
Old Guard Is Oeclared to Be Weil
Represented in Man ' Nomi
nated for Presidency at Chicago
.' . .. 'r'
Governor Harding Is Not Looked
U pqn as , Strongest Candidate
Party Could Have Nominated.
By David Lawrence
V (Copj righted 1920.)
Chicago, IU-. June 12. The old
guard - won. 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.
Washington correspondents . recalled bis
famous speech when war was declared
atrainst: Germany. ,i Senator ; Lodge and
t hers took up the Wilaon cry that it
was a war for democracy and humanity,
but Senator Harding politically took ex
ception.; He said be was voting for war
not because of that, but simply because
American rights on the high seas were
invaded.. That seemed to him the only
justification for- war. " r . -'

of the United States into a league of
